Bard's Tale trailer

Pretty nice trailer for the upcoming Bard's Tale.

I like the way game trailers are being created in the same fashion as movie trailers (see Far Cry and Beyond Good & Evil). The humour in this Bard's Tale seems to be of the trying-too-hard variety, but the voice acting sounds good and the graphics and action look pretty sweet.

Huh, I really lost all interest in this game once I found out it's running off the Dark Alliance engine. It was a fine engine on the consoles, but I just don't think the PC world can support another Divine Divinity 2/ Dungeon Siege 2/ Sacred/ NWN clone... Bard's tale was never really about the hacking and slashing- it focused on exploration, character and plot development. Too bad. I'll keep an eye out for it as it gets closer to release, but since it's not even really what Bard's Tale was all about to begin with, I suspect this will be just another "concurrently" developed game they're using in conjunction with a well-known brandname, to sell copies....
