However, the game isn’t all medieval mundanity. Henry has the chance to romance a wide range of characters, which even includes his sire and BFF Lord Hans Capon. So, when Luke Dale, the actor behind Hans, was asked who he would romance in the game, his answer was very much in character.
Hans Capone Really Loves Himself
While live streaming the game, Dale couldn’t help but admire his “handsome” character on his horse (same). That’s when someone in the chat asked him who he was planning on romancing. “Who am I planning on romancing? Who do you think!?” he replied, rather shocked that they didn’t already know. “I’m a complete f***ing narcissist, for crying out loud. Obviously, I’m going to try and f*** myself!”
Nobody was really surprised at the answer, given that it’s exactly what you’d expect from Lord Hans. Dale has become quite the favourite among the community, given his brilliant performance for Hans and his affable nature in real life. His answer in this case was just one example of why fans love him.
If you think he was joking about romancing his own character, just look at his face during one of the scenes Hans shares with Henry. Dale shared the screenshot of the scene, as well as his reaction, on the Kingdom Come: Deliverance subreddit.
Dale has been pretty vocal about his support for the gay romance options in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. Speaking about the backlash that the game received, he said “I think, to be honest with you, the people that are truly big fans of gaming and this game aren’t bothered about that sort of stuff.
“It seems to be people that are really politically involved, and they care very much about politics and not gaming, and they’ve just used this as a weapon, but they’re not necessarily into gaming.”
