Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Is At A Royally Great Discount, So What Art Thou Waiting For?

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Is At A Royally Great Discount, So What Art Thou Waiting For? https://ift.tt/W6cKdBU When I first booted up Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 , I wasn’t too sure what to expect. I hadn’t played the first game (I know, I know, put down the pitchforks!), and, as someone who prefers fantasy over medieval settings, it wasn’t my usual cup of tea. However, it quickly became one of my favorite RPGs ever, as I watched Henry go from a ragtag blacksmith’s son to a strong knight once again. Now, you can grab it at its lowest price ever.

He was born on the planet Krypton, sent via spaceship to Earth as the planet collapsed beneath his parents' feet. This story even sticks with Supes in his latest iteration: Adult Swim's My Adventures with Superman.

History has shown that any number of changes can be made to the Superman character--his outfit, his skin color, where he crash-landed, what year he arrived on Earth--but he always begins life as a boy from Krypton who crash-landed onto Earth. He has always been an immigrant, even when stories handled that aspect differently--think of Red Son, when Superman's pod crashed into Russia instead of America, or Flashpoint, when he was kept underground as a lifelong prisoner of the government.

Now, My Adventures with Superman has found some important new ways to explore this idea.
