In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, finesse can often be more effective than brute force when navigating through quests. One such instance is when you need to convince Captain Thomas that you and your companions are messengers on your way to the castle. Here's a detailed guide on how to successfully persuade Captain Thomas.
At the outset of *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you'll encounter Captain Thomas as Henry and his group journey towards the castle. Your objective is to persuade Thomas that you carry a message for von Bergow. The dialogue options you select when introducing yourself can set the tone for this interaction:
Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
---|---|---|
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | A soldier thrives on combat, wielding weapons and donning armor, known for their short temper. |
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | An adviser relies on intellect, diplomacy, and persuasion to navigate challenges. |
“I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | A scout operates covertly, using stealth and silence to complete objectives. |
While these choices mainly influence your initial stats and playstyle, opting for the Adviser route can be particularly advantageous. Selecting the "I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy" option will boost your Persuasion and Charisma skills, which are crucial for successfully interacting with other NPCs throughout the game.
Once you've chosen your role, continue the conversation with Captain Thomas, ensuring you remain consistent with the story you've established. If you've chosen to be an adviser, maintain that persona throughout the dialogue. Staying true to your chosen role will help you convincingly persuade Captain Thomas of your mission.
Even if you stray from your story, Hans will intervene to keep things on track, allowing the narrative to proceed as intended.
By following these steps, you'll successfully convince Captain Thomas in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more tips and in-depth information on the game, be sure to visit The Escapist.
