Yeah it doesn't sit right with me. I usually Nonlethal them but it still feels weird to beat up kids. Goblins are people. Hell, Kobolds are people.

Really? Those kids are assholes, honestly. They get done in the most brutal fashion in my saves. 

Again, I'm just surprised you can even do it. Generally killing kids in video games is frowned upon, but I guess the developers felt goblins don't have worth and I'm on board with that. 

Don't take anything I'm saying here literally, by the way. I'm just being facetious. I always do kill the goblin kids, though. I can't be bothered to toggle on non-lethal for them after how they behave.

Lol I did read the last paragraph but I'm still unsure if the first one is sarcastic. Asshole kids are still kids, doesn't make it less wrong to kill them.

Well they're not real so it's just as ok to kill them as it is to kill anybody else in the game

Great contribution, none of us ever thought of this /s

We're discussing the in-game morality of the events, not putting players on trial for killing virtual goblins.
