A bards tale

It look nice and has alot of humor. (try to click on the waitress ) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" />

and NPC reactions like "kick in the nuts anyone ?"

It's out in America. Any players here played it?



Not in the mood for cheese?

It's basically a harder BG:Dark Alliance but with a twist on magic (you have to play songs in order to summon anthropomorphic magic (yes, they even talk).

Did you get to the sexual harsellement site with the waitress, Morbo <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />?

Looks like a remake of the ancient "Bard's Tale". I've never played it, though.

Well, the console games came out a long time ago but the PC version is still on the horizon.

It hasn't been receiving good press, and though it's a 'remake' it nothing like the old bards tale game in any way shape or form.

The old bards tale was probably one of the first party rpgs ever and was like might and magic.

The new game is more a BG: Dark alliance thing.

downloaded a little video (on El shripo's website (dutch)) where he "kick starts" the game. from what I saw the comedy is gold and no "won't some one think of the children nonsense", play your cards right and get a room next to the waitress (with huge polygons <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" />) .

Will see how much it costs.

PS: it's good to see Shrimpo making video's again. Has found memories of Shrimp tv

yeah, the kickstarts are fun to watch, gives you a nice view of what to expect, i'm having a small collection of arena 51 kickstarts now hehe.

Pity that we don't have shrimp tv anymore, but this softens the pain.

Now it's waiting till the day that i check the site, and find a kickstart of DD˛
