Do you know when you play Undertale and one dialogue have 2 or more options to choose? How do i make that(Godot 3.5)?
Use something like Dialogic or (personal recommendation) Dialog Manager.
- Does Dialogic support godot's built in translation system?

Have a lot of txt file for my game's dialogue. Is it better to have them compiled in one big txt file or just have dozens of small txt files?
JSON files might not be the best fit for dialogs. Have you considered existing solutions? Godot Dialogue Manager is great and simple to use. You can also check the code to see how it works.

How to make a basic branching dialogue system?
There are two great dialogue systems available for Godot, Godot Dialogue Manager, which is geared more towards writing things in a script, and Dialogic with a nice user interface, that is more artist-friendly (though direct script editing is also available). It also has more features (at least in the new version, which is currently under development for the upcoming Godot 4 and might not be suitable for production).
