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. Like many of the best RPGs ever made, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 knows how to immerse you in its world. You play as Henry of Skalitz, a man-at-arms who suffers major injuries during a trip to Trosky Castle thanks to a bunch of no-good bandits.

Netflix's Obliterated Lets Cobra Kai Creators Return To Their R-Rated Roots https://ift.tt/aAh6w7i

At a glance, it may seem surprising that Netflix's new action-comedy series Obliterated is from the same guys responsible for the long-running hit Cobra Kai.

Obliterated, on the other hand, is filled with sex, drugs, alcohol, explosions, psychedelic trips, and the threat of a nuclear apocalypse. Put plainly, it's a far more graphic and "grown up" show than the teen-facing Karate Kid companion series. However, it's actually a very familiar comfort zone for showrunners Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald.

Before the trio pitched Cobra Kai to be made, they were actually rather successful in the world of raunchy R-rated films. Hurwitz and Schlossberg were the writers behind the Harold & Kumar films, before they teamed with Heald to write both Hot Tub Time Machine films. So, if anything, Obliterated is their way of going home again, after several years writing for teenage characters. Still, the change was a shock to the system, at first.

"It was like going off of an extreme diet and just eating like all the fast food and comfort food that you would want, because we come from that R-rated world," Schlossberg explained. "We love comedy that pushes the envelope. Working on Cobra Kai, that tone doesn't really play into the Karate Kid universe. So we don't use that part of our brains when we write Cobra Kai."
