I could have sworn that when this song explains how the person is that set it free and what they would if they caught him, the Bard would glance around more with more of an emotive face.
If you think about it, this is all Bodb' fault (which one, I'm not entire sure). I mean he was the reason Farmer Finn made you kill that horse because he had the bell! But then it's Finn's fault for putting it on the horse because of his daughter falling for an idiot! But then... It's his daughter's fault for angering her father by trying to elope with a jerk... But than it's that jerk's fault... And that jerk is the Bard. DAMN IT, THIS WAS ALL BARD'S FAULT!
love the sing-along bits. Sometimes my bro and me will start singing them while driving in the car with the windows down. Oh, some of the looks we got...
I DM for a lot of people who otherwise had never played D&D before. A few kids too. I make sure I play this song to set the tone. It's got a perfect balance of myth, lore, monster and humour. They all love it. THEN ... they get to fight the Nuckelavee, and I make it a tough fight for them. (I use a centaur for basic stats, then add a few hit dices for difficulty)
while this game may not be high rated by the critics it is one of the most fun games to play ever. Lost track of the number of times I've played through
If you ever played the game in a town named kirk wall you'll meet a farmer who wants a horse dead and around its neck is a bell you need anyway and then on a rainy night he buries it not knoing its a sacred ground then he gets combined to the dead horse creating the nuckelavee
Brian Fargo and Arrowhead Game Studios should team up for the next chapter of this The Bards Tale... I'm not talking about the new one, I mean this game, with all it's wonderful humor, wit, songs, characters, ect. The guys at Arrowhead made the new Gauntlet on Steam and they're sense of game crafting and humor would make a great The Bards Tale...The Next Chapter game. Keep it isometric view like this one.
Indeed, good music that's original would be awesome in new games :} I hope that the developers realize they can do that and put those songs (if they're good) on cd's and sell those as well ._.
Also for those who do not know, this game is available on Android and IOS so you can play the game on your phone on the train to work or on the john hahha
The only bad thing I can say is that I got the PS2 version, which had a scratch on the front which would make it take a minimum of ten to fifteen minutes trying to get it working and have the game title on the screen.
My name is Bohd! (Whatever the name is that was used by a handful of NPCs. I remember the Bard getting mad that so many different people went by the same name. But it's been many years since I played this game.)
Bacon8t0r Curious, is RWBY a Japanese anime or is like Teen Titans where it's a mix? Because I would think a Japanese anime would make the Nuckelavee truly more terrifying.
We need one for Xbox as well and i think wii version would be awsome is not then at least the kids could play I think their are enough bad games out we need some DAMMNNNN GOOD GAMES WE NEED THE BARDS TALE II
Growlie26: The Nuckelavee is actually a creature from Scottish/Celtic mythology, and yes, the one in RWBY is very tame compared to the original depictions of the beast
No skin, leaving only muscle and yellow veins visible, sometimes depicted with one eye in the human head, others say it’s more like a centaur. It’s breath is so fowl that it has been known to cause crops to wilt and the smell of burning seaweed greatly angers it. I could go on, but i hate to ramble 😓
I love when it zooms in on the Bard, trying really, really hard to look nonchalant.
What's hilarious is The Bard is the guy who set it free and he's playing in the band
His movement when he realizes...
I never knew "😅" could be so well rendered, hahaha
I could have sworn that when this song explains how the person is that set it free and what they would if they caught him, the Bard would glance around more with more of an emotive face.
"Don't look sus. Don't look sus. Don't look sus. For fuck's sake, DON'T LOOK SUS!" 😥😬🙄
Even after all these years I still know the song by heart. This game was a lot of fun.
Same, we need a next gen release of this game, I last played it on PS2.
Nevermind. I guess there IS a next gen remaster. Blast it all.
RIP doggie

Not sure which is worse... or funnier...
i was thinking the same way my friend...i need a beer
@Heycel tddly beer beer beer
It's a round about way of just saying... Every thing that happens is always the bards fault
This is an amazing comment even without the context of the game.
The sad thing is this isn't even the worst thing that the Bard has done.
SPOILER:
For those who never played the game: The fool in the song is actually the bard and he is the guy playing the lute
And Nuckelavee is weak boss(
***** He never actually got caught killing the horse...then played really dumb about it for the rest of the game
Allan Hobbs Nobody expects the Bard.
It's actually possible to kite the horse out of the ring, but the moment you kill it the game teleports the body back in the ring.
Really? You'd never know by the poly count or texture resolution alone.
God I miss this game.
+Raid Man It is one sale on steam for $2 right now if you are quick.
Good news kids it's available on mobile
Its also on xbox gamepass.
18 years later and this game is still a banger.
That fucking ending, yo! 😂
18 years?! I can't believe I still remember this song from start to end, and I didn't know English at that time 😅
PS. It's 19 years now... Omg
"Now where was I? Ah yes the Bard was making an ass of himself."
Nostalgia too strong!
love the sing-along bits.
Sometimes my bro and me will start singing them while driving in the car with the windows down. Oh, some of the looks we got...
Favorite moments are the narrator and the bard talking to each other.
so basically the whole game :D
songs from this game is awensome
The bard isn't dumb, he just have some rotten luck
i love this game and i really want a sequel
Be careful what you wish for, since you may get a turn based game.
@@techpriest1559 yeah and boy does it suck
I've had this song stuck in my head for almost 15 fucking years. Please help me.
This is pretty much what inspired me to become a bardess.
Best game
awesome
I DM for a lot of people who otherwise had never played D&D before. A few kids too. I make sure I play this song to set the tone. It's got a perfect balance of myth, lore, monster and humour. They all love it. THEN ... they get to fight the Nuckelavee, and I make it a tough fight for them. (I use a centaur for basic stats, then add a few hit dices for difficulty)
After all these years I put ‘nu’ in the search bar and this video is still the top suggestion. Love this game!
Prepare to have this stuck in your head for the next fortnight.
Oh God this comment isn't funny anymore
This guy knew what fortnight was before it was even a game. HOW
This is the only reason why I know what a Nuckelavee is.
This song always made me feel guilty..
Well, it's your fault. But who knew it would release a monster so heinous? You really must be an anus.
Theorchero I blame Bodb... Not sure which one, though...
Well they knew they needed the bell and they all made you go get it, so all of them.
"There's more than one?"
"Nevermind"
while this game may not be high rated by the critics it is one of the most fun games to play ever. Lost track of the number of times I've played through
totally agree
dunno, russian game magazines rated this game very high, about 8 out of 10, this game has a cult status!
one of the best ps2 games i´ve ever played! :D
This game is amazing! The dialogue is a bit cheesy but it's also witty and clever.
Well done.. -nah, More like Medium rare.
Oh wow, that quality is excellent! It's the first thing I noticed. :D
This makes me miss owning a PS2 and ALL the games I used to have for it.
At 15 back in 2005 I beat this game in 23 hours and 56 min I did it in 3 days I can say this I was hooked.
It's a shame there isn't much background music in the game, Tommy Tallirico is one of the best videogame composers out there
Boy, do I have a video to recommend for you.
The bards tale is such of a funny game. The song's are great and the bard didn't know the song was about him.
aye this is by far the best part of the game! Thank you so much for sharing!
I'd love to hear an Iron Maiden cover of this xD
This song is soo catchy!
This was such a fun and great game, I remember this part of the game I loved it
One of the best songs in the game.
probably my favorite song in this game. and probs my all time favorite game
This game is such a classic, replaying it now.
That dog is excited asf.
0:51 "...Oh shit I did that..."
i always found it pretty funny how it goes to the bard's face when it comes to the 'he really must be an anus" part...
hes just like.... "ohp"
Id love to see a sequel to this game .. Bards tale is a classic ..
They would have to get a new Narrator.
on of the best games
This game was awesome but it was SO HARD.
TheLonePeasant really?
If you ever played the game in a town named kirk wall you'll meet a farmer who wants a horse dead and around its neck is a bell you need anyway and then on a rainy night he buries it not knoing its a sacred ground then he gets combined to the dead horse creating the nuckelavee
LOVE THAT SONG!!
The fiddle at 1:52 is pretty sick.
0:48 nice pokerface, Bard
I had the best time playing this game
Ok im gonna get this song on my youtube when i get the chance!
Brian Fargo and Arrowhead Game Studios should team up for the next chapter of this The Bards Tale...
I'm not talking about the new one, I mean this game, with all it's wonderful humor, wit, songs, characters, ect.
The guys at Arrowhead made the new Gauntlet on Steam and they're sense of game crafting and humor would make a great The Bards Tale...The Next Chapter game. Keep it isometric view like this one.
omg i love this game, please do a remake, and/or a sequel
a movie would be great XD
You get xp for listening to all of this. in game.
this was the game who really got me into RPG etc...
Why couldn’t there be a sequel?
best song i ever heard in a game
A better song, has never been made.
Love this game on my iPad 2. I was sold at the opening tavern song of Charlie Motts.
This is the sadest thing I've seen. 57k views and 45 subscribers.
It's a recording of a game cutscene. Why would anyone subscribe to the uploader? Anyone can record this cutscene and upload it to youtube.
Field of View just saying. no matter how easy it is, no1 else made it and he got 50 k views
Need more of such singing in modern games :l
A remake or sequel of this game would be awesome.
Game of my childhood
The HIGH level of hypocrisy that the bard could Lower himself to continue to leave me wondering...
:D Awesome
anyone else want a HD remake?
as well as a sequel..
Indeed, good music that's original would be awesome in new games :} I hope that the developers realize they can do that and put those songs (if they're good) on cd's and sell those as well ._.
Dank
i wish there was a series or a movie based on The Bard's Tale.
i can just picture the bard with a fat cheesy grin on his face
Also for those who do not know, this game is available on Android and IOS so you can play the game on your phone on the train to work or on the john hahha
I'm here for the scariest Grim that has ever lived. Anyone see where it went? That way? Okay, you go that way and I'll stay at the bar.
Yawehplaneswalker616 nah let the druids deal with it
Would be really cool to have a trad band mod in Skyrim Inns instead of the three song bards
The only bad thing I can say is that I got the PS2 version, which had a scratch on the front which would make it take a minimum of ten to fifteen minutes trying to get it working and have the game title on the screen.
My name is Bohd! (Whatever the name is that was used by a handful of NPCs. I remember the Bard getting mad that so many different people went by the same name. But it's been many years since I played this game.)
Close. Its Bodb.
Please add this to the PS4 store I would buy it in an instant
It were the bard that done it.
this game needs a remake, onky thing that i would worry about if they censor the hell out of it
A sequal, and an Hd version for Ps3 would be great♥
Someone said they like the nuckalavee monster so i was like boy do i got a song for you
Sweet.
I found this amazing game on android, and the graphics are amazing (yay) on my xperia :)
No, thats a dragon. This is a hellbeast, as described in the song.
Back when people actually knew how to write a f*cking script with charm and humor
Yes. Totally agree. :D
Play it in .25 speed, its fucking hilarious😂.
0:54 *you're
+Buffoon1980 Tell inXile. I am sure they'll fix it ASAP lawl
Hotfix
1:05 has an "its" that should be "it's", too.
I'd love to see how you correct McGrath
a sequel for sure... a remake? is still a recent game and they ported to android too i don't think it needs a remake
Who played the original trilogy back in the 80s? 😏
Is it just me, or does the violin player take ian anderson's flute stance when he does his violin solo??
50% off on steam....81% complete download!!!
tbh i still Fear the Nuckelavee😰
We all do
Not gonna lie, I've had this song going through my head during the end fight of RWBY volume 4.
Bacon8t0r Curious, is RWBY a Japanese anime or is like Teen Titans where it's a mix? Because I would think a Japanese anime would make the Nuckelavee
truly more terrifying.
@@growlie2676 American approximation of ani.e
I want the original to be available on something other than the Apple II
You can play this on Android now. Great fun for good price
@BlackWolvesCry Heck yeah. I also think they should redo it for all game consoles.
Wish larian studio remake this classic.
We need one for Xbox as well and i think wii version would be awsome is not then at least the kids could play I think their are enough bad games out we need some DAMMNNNN GOOD GAMES WE NEED THE BARDS TALE II
This game came out on PC? I could never find a copy.... ever...
1:27 bard Totally just through up the devil horns
Well when i pAss this giys song in my phone
Hey we all know the Nuckelavee is in Rwby right
I came here because the nuckelavee in rwby reminded me of this wonderful song
Lie Ren Yeah but, that's an anime isn't it? Did they give us a tame version of *IT* Honesty I think *It* is something out of Resident Evil.
Growlie26 nope.
Growlie26: The Nuckelavee is actually a creature from Scottish/Celtic mythology, and yes, the one in RWBY is very tame compared to the original depictions of the beast
