So that guy has friend stabbed by a Gith and tells noone in the groove?
He did ... to that two tieflings you meet when you find Lae'zel ...
You remember what they say? "
Zoru was right, yellow as a toad and twice as ugly."
But i totally agree, i was looking forward for how much will game change, when i pick up "usualy evil" race ... and i was incredibly disapointed.
Maybe they would do better to not include them at all, if they didnt plan to include them properly.
This has been a thing in most DnD video games I've ever played; because they want to provide a large sample of races for players to pick, but they also don't want players to be stopped from... you know... actually playing the game.
I believe that is the reason we have Disguise self? O_o
It is worth noting that when you get to the Grove the game has to side with them against an army of goblins that would've slaughtered the people outside the gates and then reported back, giving away the grove's position and endangering everyone inside.
That is pretty solid grounds for why the people of the Grove don't see you as a threat as a drow or gith. You've already demonstrated that you aren't there as a raider or conqueror. You've saved all their lives.
It would surely be nice if more individual NPCs reacted to my gith, but at the same time there are more NPCs who do that in this game than in most other RPGs I've played so it isn't like it is entirely absent either.
That sounds to me like reason enough to not kill your Gith, or Drow on sight ... but give him a chance ...
Not like a reason to forget everything you know your entire life and share beer with them. :-/
Also how exactly does other NPC in groove know what you did?
I can get that Zevlor told the tiefligns, any maybe that Halfling vendor ... but Kagha and other druids inside? O_o
But anyway, dot forget that Groove isnt the only "civilized" place we vizit ...
There is also toll house, where they were just attacked by gnolls ... therefore they should be aware of this part of world isnt safest place. Yet they are quite fine with your tiefling / drow / gith ...
There is also that burning homestead, where they were just attacked by DROWS!!! ... yet when your Drow approaches, they ask him for help them with stucked doors. O_o
And finaly there is Myconid village ... it may not be civilisation as we usualy talk about it, but they were just decimated by attack of Duegars ... yet they seem to not care at all about Drows, even special Drow dialogue option gives you free entrance, instead of attack. O_o
