The six story trophies: two are missable and two out of three never finish

No campaign on this site has this many missable story trophies. Face to Face and A Bird in the Hand depend on how you resolve the scene, not on reaching it. And only 34.41% see the ending.

And it counts towards Vengeance, New Horizons, A Bird in the Hand, Face to Face, The End, required for the platinum.

Four come on their own, two do not

In almost every game, "story trophy" means "impossible to miss". In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II it does not.

Four of the six do come from progressing:

- This Will End Badly — 91.22%. Reach the Trosky region, the first large map. It pops in the prologue and is the most common trophy on the list. - Revenge — 54.06%. Kill Istvan. Story progression, hidden. - New Horizons — 53.84%. Reach the Kutná Hora region, the second map. It marks the campaign's midpoint and is silver. - The End — 34.41%. Complete the story. It is one of the game's only two golds.

And two do not:

- A Bird in the Hand — 58.92%. Save Capon from the gallows. It is missable: it depends on how you resolve that sequence, not on reaching it. - Face to Face — 28.65%. Meet Markvart von Aulitz, the series' villain. Also missable, and that 28.65% proves it: it sits well below the 34.41% for finishing the game, so people are seeing the credits without having earned it.

That contrast is the most useful fact in this guide. A story trophy below the finish-the-story trophy can only mean one thing: it gets lost along the way.

Careful

Face to Face sits at 28.65% and The End at 34.41%. Almost six points' worth of players finish the campaign without the meet-the-villain trophy: reaching it is not enough, you have to reach it the right way.

A hundred hours and 34.41%

The End sits at 34.41%: two out of three players never finish Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. With a roughly 100-hour campaign, that is no surprise.

The full curve tells the story:

| Trophy | Moment | Have it | |---|---|---| | This Will End Badly | Prologue, reaching Trosky | 91.22% | | A Bird in the Hand | Capon at the gallows | 58.92% | | Revenge | Istvan's death | 54.06% | | New Horizons | Reaching Kutná Hora | 53.84% | | The End | Credits | 34.41% |

The big collapse sits between the prologue and the first third: from 91.22% to 58.92%, meaning a good third of buyers quit before the first major decision. After that the decline flattens considerably: between Revenge and New Horizons there are only two tenths.

The practical reading for anyone going for the platinum: the game does not filter by difficulty, it filters by length. Whoever gets past the prologue usually reaches Kutná Hora, and from Kutná Hora to the ending another fifth falls away — which is exactly half the campaign.

Other Kingdom Come: Deliverance II guides

The 22 missable trophies in the Kingdom Come: Deliverance II platinum
Almost half the platinum hangs on decisions you only make once. Here is the full list and the point at which each one closes.
Lent: finishing Kingdom Come: Deliverance II without eating meat or killing animals
The rarest trophy in the base game, at 8.23%. It is not skill: it is not slipping up once in 100 hours.
The 35 DLC trophies in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and why none of them counts
Five separate packs, 35 trophies and zero impact on the platinum. Among them, the two rarest in the whole game.
The hand cannon trophies in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
Four firearm trophies, all below 13%, and none of them is hard: it is just that almost nobody uses the thing.
Kingdom Come II's two points of no return and what dies at each one
The platinum asks for around 90% of the game, and two main quests permanently close their region's side content. Here are both, with the complete list of what has to be done first.
The seventeen side quests: twelve are missable and none warns you
Henry the Matchmaker asks for the ending nobody picks, and Talked My Way Out demands you end up sentenced to death with high Speech. Seventeen threads, which close as you progress and which have only one valid ending.
The seven combat feats: two need counting from the start
Offensive Versatility asks for nine different weapon types and Under Pressure fails if you bandage out of habit. Seven combat trophies, from 68.02% to 13.33%, and none depends on difficulty.
Dice, locks and 10,000 groschen: the ten tavern trophies
There is a trophy for spending 10,000 groschen and another for losing them, and the second is taken at the dice table on purpose. Ten minigame and competition trophies, including the two DLC ones that do not count towards the platinum.
Brushes With Death: ten trophies and two incompatible endings
Curiosity Killed the Cat and resolving Libor's thread properly are mutually exclusive: one of the two is left out every run. Ten DLC trophies, none counts towards the platinum and eight are missable.
The forge DLC: the game's rarest trophy depends on a randomly offered activity
Ragged's Dream sits at 4.19% and is the rarest trophy in the whole game, DLC included, because the activity that gives it is offered at random each day. Ten forge trophies and four below 4%.
Mysteria Ecclesiae: eight trophies, all missable, and one asks you to die in the most absurd way
Ostraconophobia asks you to let a crayfish kill you and sits at 3.09%. Eight trophies from the third DLC, none counts towards the platinum, and all eight are lost if you finish the content without them.
