Guide to Achieving the Optimal Conclusion in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, achieving the best ending is all about making choices that align with honor and morality. The game concludes with Henry conversing with his parents, reflecting on his journey. For the optimal outcome, you want Henry's parents to be proud of the man he has become, influenced by key decisions throughout the main storyline. Let's break down the crucial choices you need to make to secure this best ending.

Semine vs. Hashek

During the quest "Necessary Evil," you face a critical decision between siding with Semine or Hashek. For the best ending, you must side with Semine and take down Hashek. Although Semine will lose his estate, this choice allows him to escape and live on, contributing to a more honorable outcome.

The Dry Devil’s Plan

In the quest "Dancing With the Devil," Jan Zizka tasks you with attacking Maleshov Fortress. To align with the best ending, reject the Dry Devil's plan. This refusal leads to a duel with the Dry Devil, making the quest more challenging, but it ensures that no innocents are harmed in the process, upholding your moral standing.

Markvart von Aulitz’s Fate

During the "Reckoning" quest, you encounter Markvart von Aulitz. For the best ending, do not kill him outright. Instead, leave him to die naturally or, for a more dignified approach, assist him in standing before delivering a merciful end. This choice reflects compassion and honor.

Spare Brabant

In the same mission, you'll find Vauquelin Brabant torturing Samuel in the village. After defeating him, choose to spare Brabant to progress towards the best ending. This decision might make the mission more difficult as he will call the guards, but it upholds your commitment to mercy.

Show Remorse

If you've engaged in criminal activities during your journey, you can still redeem yourself by showing remorse. When speaking with Henry's parents at the game's conclusion, select the dialogue option "I’m sorry." This admission of regret helps steer you toward the best ending.

By following these choices—siding with Semine, rejecting the Dry Devil's plan, handling Markvart von Aulitz with dignity, sparing Vauquelin Brabant, and showing remorse—you'll be on the path to the best ending in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.
