Netflix’s The OA Part II: What to Know Before You Watch
Fans of Netflix's trippy science fiction series The OA have reason to celebrate. The second season is almost here. And given the dramatic way The OA Part 1 ended, it goes without saying that the series will have a very different status quo in these new episodes.
From new cast members to a major change in setting, here's everything you need to know to prepare for The OA Part 2.
Recapping Part I
Since it's been a while since Part I debuted on Netflix, a quick recap is probably in order. The OA revolves around a young woman named Prairie Johnson (Brit Marling), who vanishes for several years and suddenly returns, mysteriously cured of her blindness and reluctant to speak about what happened during those missing years. Prairie, now calling herself "The OA," eventually reveals her story to a group of local high schoolers and a teacher. We learn that she was originally the daughter of a Russian oligarch and was struck blind after nearly drowning following a mafia hit. Prairie's disappearance was the result of being kidnapped by Dr. Hunter Aloysius "Hap" Percy (Jason Isaacs), an unscrupulous researcher obsessed with studying the effects of near-death experiences and their potential to open a doorway between dimensions.

How an Indie Developer Is Making an Official Zelda Game
Cadence of Hyrule marks a fairly unprecedented step for Nintendo. While it’s fundamentally a mash-up of The Legend of Zelda and Crypt of the NecroDancer, the next Zelda game is still being made by a small, third-party indie developer, and is even being called a “Nindie” by Nintendo itself. As exciting as the announcement is, how the heck did that happen?
To find out, I spoke with Ryan Clark, founder of Crypt of the NecroDancer developer Brace Yourself Games. While Clark says they initially approached Nintendo to potentially use Zelda in some smaller way like DLC, the mutual interest in working together grew faster than they were expecting.
