What grabbed my attention was the careful intent to stray from the standard RPG trappings of both character style and storyline. The publishers have made it very clear that the Bard does not have intentions beyond his own gratification. Hopefully the snarky UK humour will not be lost on the mass gaming market but then again, this project looks more and more to be about the fans of the original, and a detailed vision of the developers. At the same time, the game is sure to entice newcomers ready for something refreshing and gripping while being truly different. With the level of proposed originality and one of the producers who put RPG's on the map, the Bard's Tale should give RPG gamers a good kick in the pants when it arrives next year.
