The Bard's Tale ARPG: Remastered and Resnarkled

The Bard's tale has been, with no doubt, one of my favourite games. I enjoyed a lot and learned a lot of English too!!! Very addictive and with a great sense of humour. Unlike other games, I could finish this game in the hard mode without cheating at all. When will the second part appear?

I actually really enjoyed the dialogue, narrator and quality voice acting in the short amount of time i played (under 3 hours), but the gameplay/combat was deadly dull, repetitive and not personally worth it to continue unfortunately, I've never been a fan of any action RPG however so many others may find the combat OK/good. Shame. I'll probably just watch the ending/story snippets on youtube.

humor is so fun, but gameplay is so boring.

At last it was fun on the PS2. I never played the PC version. Why do i remember playing this game? Its not because of his epic story. Or its fantastic RPG fighting system, or the graphics.... First there is this narrator. Its one of the best. Than the fact that every character in this game is a snarky bast*** You missed one of the funniest games ever if you haven't played this one. For the original 3 (real RPG's). They are classics. But i wouldn't play them again....the game is so outdated it hurts

I've not played the latest version of this.. But I am buying this purely for the 3 original games.. I've played The Bards Tale one on Atari ST, Commodore 64, Spectrum and Amiga.. absolutely loved it.. 2 I had on the Amiga and C64, along with 3, but that was also on my 1st PC (remember the Amstrad luggable anyone the PPC640DD?). These games for me, set various standards, OK they may have taken ideas from the SSI games.. but they also innovated.. Great times I had, and Great times I shall have again.. Time to get pencil and paper out to draw them damn dungeon maps.... :-)
