Dogs chasing me right away

[Roda the Red]

So uhh, I searched online and I can't seem to find this anywhere, but right at the start of the game, the dogs will chase me immediately if I try to enter the dungeon from the front entrance.

Am I doing something wrong or is it just a bug? I'm playing as The Outlander btw

You should have just enough time to loot the 4 or 5 crates and barrels and leave the grassy area before the dogs show up. And once you get inside you should be safe. But the timing is really tight like don't stop to examine the dead horse or the things you can't loot.

If they are showing up immediately with no time to do anything in the grassy area, or if they are showing up after you've already entered the building, that is probably a bug.

They allways entered the main building for me, Not matter if a went strait for it or not.
The strat i found was to either kill them, if you have the means(Not all character do) or just go in the left entrance, they don't follow in that one. More over I found that after circling back around the dogs were gone! Never needed to fight them, which was a huge relief on my sanity and my resources. Could be timed based, or maybe there is a trigger once you do something.

Dog killing spoiler(that i know of): Use a stick! Talk to the dogs and that will give you the option to throw a stick(should you have one) After which it basically stuns them indefinitely, I say "basically" because you still need to guard if they bark at you(indicates its going for the pounce next round)

As far as i know, the dogs in the front entrance should be part of the Terror & Starvation or higher difficulty special encounteres. They instantly appear if you are in the main hall and leave the room through any door except back through the entrance. They also appear after a certain time within the room. This is not limited to you leaving the room, but also entering it later on from the back.

I find its part of the fun of the game to discover such things for yourself. Especially, since you should have a save point right before that in the beginning.

A tricky but time-consuming way that I found is to instantly go to the left entrance (the one behind dead horse).

It will lead you to part 3 of first level. And then progress backwards to main entrance to get to the girl and loot everything you can. That way, you end up never encountering those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dogos.

On the harder of the two difficulties (i think terror and starvation i dont remember NOT the one that has no saving) ive noticed the dogs burst through the entrance way each time too, I dont remember this being a thing on the other difficulty tho.
