Pathfinder embraced goblins as a player race but I was never very happy with that choice. Goblins in PF and D&D are the archetypical chaotic enemy horde threat, pathetic in isolation but dangerous in numbers. Having a single goblin adventurer as part of a non-goblinoid party seems very wrong. Even a full goblin party would be odd, as they would need to be a lot better organised and disciplined than their racial stereotype suggests.
