Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Developers Stood Their Ground Against Negative Playtest Feedback

During playtesting, some players made a mistake at the beginning of the game and were immediately arrested, which led to negative feedback. However, the development team at Warhorse Studios intentionally designed the game this way. According to creative director Tobias Jirsa, they wanted players to feel vulnerable and weak when they first started playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. This initial difficulty was meant to make players feel a greater sense of achievement as they improved their skills and became more powerful.

Born on This Day in 1916, One of Sci-Fi’s “Big Three” Who Wrote The Masterpiece That Changed Everything

Alongside Isaac Asimov and Robert Heinlein, Sir Arthur C. Clarke completes the trio of science fiction masters. Born on December 16, 1916, Clarke distinguished himself by combining believable science with a sense of spiritual awe. Though he wrote many well-known books over his long career, he’s perhaps best remembered for his 1968 work with director Stanley Kubrick, 2001: A Space Odyssey.
