Hans Capon's actor, Luke Dale, himself made a small mistake while streaming Kingdom Come 2 on Twitch.
If you’ve ever wondered what Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 looked like a year ago, wonder no more – Luke Dale, the actor behind Hans Capon, unintentionally answered that question during a recent Twitch stream. Under the name Lord Hans Capon, the British actor occasionally streams Kingdom Come: Deliverance to thousands of viewers. This time, however, he decided to showcase Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 – only to realize, along with his audience, that something was seriously off.
Glitches, Flickering Water, and Chubby Rabbits
From the very first cutscene, the game stuttered heavily, prompting Dale to initially blame his stream connection. However, things only got worse. During the first hour of the game, players noticed flickering textures, erratic smoke effects, and an entire lake shimmering like a disco ball. Character models looked noticeably rougher than expected, but the real highlight? The in-game rabbit indicator.
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, a small rabbit icon signals whether Henry is being pursued or engaged in combat. However, in Dale’s version, the rabbits looked completely different – small, round, and, admittedly, quite adorable.
The Truth Behind The Outdated Build
Early in the stream, Dale casually mentioned that he hadn’t downloaded the day-one patch. He even showed his PS5 download queue, revealing that the patch was a whopping 80GB and would take nearly nine hours to install. Not wanting to wait, he jumped straight into the game – unaware that he was actually playing a one-year-old build.Warhorse Studios quickly caught wind of the situation and, to their horror, realized that Dale was inadvertently showcasing an outdated version of the game. After some private messages, Dale even hopped on a live call with a developer, who could only advise him to please download the patch.Realizing his mistake, Dale cut the stream short and returned the next day with the fully updated version. Fortunately, both he and Warhorse took the mishap with good humor, making it one of the more amusing pre-launch blunders in gaming history.
