From what im seeing so far after going to the goblin camp is that many dialog options there can go wrong for you. This is fine but some of the combat moments that happen after these are waaay overblown to the point of frustration.
First big one is when you lose a charisma check or pick the wrong answer when talking to the goblin that gives you the Chicken Chase Game quest (or whatever it was called). After you antagonise her before or after starting her game she calls almost the entire camp for backup to kick your butt. Not sure but its something like 6-7 goblins total plus the big ogre near the temple door. Problem with this fight are the numbers of goblins that fight you because even with most of them beeing lvl 1 they still overwhelm you with the damage they deal. This huge fight comes out of nowhere for the player and is too big of a punishment IMO. This leads to me having to reload the save simply because the fight will wipe my party or i would have to analize the fight itself a few times to even stand a chance. Why bother to take your chances and fail an innocent charisma check vs some goblin gambler.
Second fight is in the temple with the goblin priestess. To keep it short (SPILER!!!). The goblin priestess offers to look into the parasite problem in your head but this just leads to her going 180 on you and wanting to kill you anyway. The fight? She calls for backup the whole temple with makes sense sure. Again this fight can go terribly for my lvl 3 party even with the goblins beeing lvl 1 mostly (not all of them) but perhaps im asking for it beeing balls deep in a goblin camp? The bigger issue is when the gnome merchant plus her 2 bodyguards swoop in. They only join the fight if a gobling happens to get close to them. That makes it so its not clear whether or not they are even supposed to join? They seem to tip the scale of the fight even more to the point where again im so punished by the choices i make that i have to reload and not make them at all.
Even if the answer is lvling your party to lvl 4 and preparing for the fight it still adds hoops to an experience that should be organic. Tell me what you think
