In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, finesse can be just as crucial as brute force, especially when you need to convince Captain Thomas that you're messengers on your way to the castle. Here's how to navigate this pivotal encounter effectively.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - Captain Thomas Dialogue Options
At the outset of your journey in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, Henry and his companions will encounter Captain Thomas. Your objective is to persuade him that you carry a message for von Bergow. The dialogue options you choose when introducing yourself can set the tone for your interaction:
| Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
|---|---|---|
| “I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | A soldier thrives on wielding weapons and donning armor, often known for a fiery temperament. |
| “I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | An adviser leverages knowledge, eloquence, and diplomacy to navigate challenges. |
| “I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | A scout excels in stealth, preferring to operate undetected and solve problems quietly. |
While these choices primarily influence your starting stats and playstyle, opting for the Adviser route can be particularly beneficial. This choice boosts your Persuasion and Charisma stats, which are invaluable for interacting with NPCs throughout the game. Given the variety of quests that require more than just strength, choosing to be an adviser can smooth your path forward.
As the conversation with Captain Thomas continues, it's crucial to remain consistent with your chosen role. If you've selected the adviser option, maintain that narrative to successfully convince Thomas of your mission. Even if you stray from your story, Hans will intervene to keep the situation under control, ensuring the story progresses as intended.
