I don't understand what this feat does.

Wouldn't I be able to accomplish the same results via regular roleplay and a Deception check, without the need of a feat?

It's like having a feat that allows me to make a check to climb a building. Like, sure, that's nice, but I could accomplish the same by... Telling the DM I want to climb the building, and passing the required check.

Normally your GM would probably let you attempt this roleplay-wise, but wouldn't make the target Frightened 2 or give you extra information as if you had used Recall Knowledge.

It's still not very powerful but it's just a General Feat and it encourages shenanigans that the GM can't stop :P
