Should you kill the guy after Godrick?

Been killing him since my first playthrough. FYI if you want to hold off on killing Gostoc to get your runes back, it absolutely must be before you beat Godrick. If you beat Godrick, Gostoc will no longer drop them. That said you only ever get back what you lost from his death tax.

Is Gostoc a bad guy?

You should still take the path he suggests as it is easier, Gostock will also stalk you along the way. However, don't treat him as an enemy as you'll need him alive for a more important quest later, so while Gostoc is a murderous little thief, he's of use to you, so stay your hand and keep the creep alive.

If you decide to kill him before defeating Godrick the Grafted, you'll retreive all of the runes he stole from you (if you waited until after you killed Grodrick, sorry you're out of luck). It's best to kill him as soon as you can, he'll drop his bell bearing and you give it to the merchant at Roundtable Hold.

Should I get Axe of Godrick or Dragon?

Between the two options, we feel that the Axe of Godrick is a superior option, especially at the start of Elden Ring. It can be argued that the Grafted Dragon one has more flexibility, but not every character focuses on Faith while they play. Strength is a much more common choice, and works for various players.
