Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - Alcohol And Drinking Guide

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, alcohol plays a significant role in daily life, influencing characters from guards to bandits. However, excessive drinking carries consequences, including drunkenness, hangovers, and even addiction. This guide explores the mechanics of alcohol consumption, its benefits and drawbacks, and how to manage its effects.

Types of Alcohol:

Several alcoholic beverages are available for purchase from innkeepers at taverns, each costing a few Groschen: Beer, Cheap Wine, Fine Wine, Mead, Schnapps, and Wine. Note that some story-specific drinks are not available for general consumption.

Getting Drunk:

Simply consuming large quantities of alcohol will lead to intoxication. A gauge to the left of your health bar indicates your level of drunkenness. Symptoms include impaired movement, blurry vision, and unreliable sprinting. Sobriety is regained through rest or sleep (though excessive drinking may result in a hangover). The "Hair o' The Dog" potion also counteracts drunkenness.

The Pros and Cons of Drinking:

Alcohol offers some advantages: it temporarily delays fatigue, slightly increases strength, and provides minor nourishment. However, it also negatively impacts speech and charisma, increases visibility, reduces stamina, and hinders sleep.

Drinking Skills:

Several skills mitigate the negative effects of alcohol and enhance its benefits. These skills are improved through drinking, but moderation is key to avoid addiction.

Alcohol Addiction:

Excessive drinking, particularly when combined with low nourishment, can lead to alcohol addiction. This necessitates carrying alcohol at all times and impacts Henry's behavior.
