If anyone here is playing KC:D2, the actor for Hans Capon (Luke Dale) made a mini-docu on the threat of AI to voice acting. I thought it was well edited and presented the problem in a very digestible way for those who know little about AI, so here it is for anyone interested: https://youtu.be/R55QzK8Hles
I am playing that, and I don’t know if the story always goes this way, or if I just suck so bad at speech craft and the game changed based on my dialogue failures, but Hans and Henry hate each other now.
I just started it up yesterday, and went to bed right after their big fight. So it does sound like that was supposed to happen. Now I wonder if I could have avoided being arrested. Like I have failed every single speech check the game has given me, and I know at least 2 things could have been way different than it ended up going because of those failures. lol
No, there’s a few dialogue choices but they’ll all result in Hans hating you at the start of the game. I had to replay the intro for missed achievements (initially pirated to benchmark/see if I liked the game b4 buying) and did different choices up to the big fight. The intro is railroaded.
Don’t worry too much about early game speech checks. The game knows your skill levels are low, so the story plays into Henry needing to improve. Also, don’t be afraid to flee a fight you aren’t prepared for. You won’t majorly ruin future content unless you start murder hobo-ing. Enjoy the game! It’s quite a treat in my opinion :)

How far in are you? In the beginning section of the game, >!Henry and Hans have a big fallout, but it eases up after the first main story beat!<.
