The Bard’s Tale: Satire RPG Legend

The Bard’s Tale wasn’t just a fantasy RPG—it was a satire disguised as one. While most RPGs

treated heroes like legends, The Bard’s Tale made fun of them. The main character

openly mocked quests, complained about saving the world, and constantly reminded you he was only

in it for the money. <break time="1.0s" /> Even the narrator broke the fourth wall to roast your decisions.

Long before modern meta-humor became popular, The Bard’s Tale was already laughing

at the entire genre. It proved you didn’t need to be serious to be memorable… sometimes the joke

is what makes the legend last.
