Early in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Henry and his companions encounter Captain Thomas en route to the castle. Your goal: persuade Thomas you carry a message for von Bergow.
When introducing yourselves, you'll choose from:
Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
---|---|---|
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | A combat-focused approach. |
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | A diplomatic approach, utilizing knowledge and persuasion. |
“I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | A stealth-oriented approach. |
The initial choice affects starting stats and playstyle. However, since many quests require more than combat, selecting "Adviser" is recommended. This boosts Persuasion and Charisma, aiding interactions with NPCs.
Subsequent dialogue with Captain Thomas requires sticking to your chosen story. If you're the adviser, remain consistent. Even if you deviate, Hans intervenes, ensuring the story progresses normally.
