The two at the back made me crack up...
Also http://www.thebardstale-thegame.com/uk/ which also is sort of funny and has a demo download of the game. - I couldn't run it though as my video card couldnt run it.
Actually, in this game there is a song in the starting tavern which is basically a story about why there is/was that 11 o'clock last orders in pubs at Great Britain.
I tryed Bards Tale little but i dont understand it. Its not the same like other games where i known what to do. Do it have also close encounters like cities or labirynths? I start in empty fieldand i go to nowhere and from time to time someone attack me.

Agreed. I was expecting a modern-day remake of the 1980's BT series, but instead you only get to play as a Bard and venture by yourself in lieu of being in a party.
Yes, I also was at a first glance a bit disappointed because I had expected something based on the original Bard's Tale series (which I only started to play on Amiga AFTER I was through with Dungeon Master, although it was available on my C64 years earlier).
But on a second glance I found that the new Bard's Tale game is bloody brilliant. It is not a classical mixed-classes-party game, true. You play a bard, and you get other characters in the course of time when you learn more and more summoning songs.
What's making the game bloody brilliant though is its zynical humour, and the total lack of any moral on part of the main character, who is far more interested in wine, women, song and gold instead of the epic quest to save the world. I just love the way the game plays with role-playing-clichées. Have you seen the undead dancing contest? I nearly laughed tears when I saw it.
Oh, and the game has three different endings which are also quite funnny.
Parting is all we know from Heaven, and all we need of hell.
