While brute force might conquer many quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, sometimes a bit of diplomacy is key. Here's how to smoothly convince Captain Thomas you're a messenger.
Early in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you'll encounter Captain Thomas on your journey to the castle. Your goal: convince him you carry a message for von Bergow. You'll be presented with these dialogue options:
Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
---|---|---|
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | A combat-focused character with high strength and a short temper. |
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | A diplomatic character skilled in persuasion and charisma. |
“I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | A stealth-oriented character prioritizing silent and undetected approaches. |
While your initial choice influences starting stats and playstyle, it doesn't fundamentally alter this encounter. However, choosing "Adviser" is beneficial. Boosting your Persuasion and Charisma early on proves advantageous in numerous future interactions.
Following your introduction, continue the conversation with Captain Thomas. Remain consistent with your chosen persona (if you selected Adviser, stay in character). This ensures a smooth progression. Even if you stumble, Hans will intervene, keeping the story on track.
