Well, the original version is a little more spartan.

Number 3 started to look a little better though...

You can see the differences between the different versions here. C64 and Apple II are the originals. The others came a few years later. The C64 version was a very lazy version compared to what could be gotten from the machine. I suppose Applie II fans said that same thing about Pool of Radiance:

In the 3th death snare my time has expired and because I was playing ironman so it's game over! :cry:
This game is incredibly hard! A maze full of traps, anti-magic zones, spinners and teleports and you have limited time to solve it! Where is Zomg who said every single-player game is easy? Or Destiny Knight has illegitimate gameplay?

What?! Bards Tale 2 is the hardest of the 3, not the easiest. Who told you it was the easiest? I hope you backed up your save files.

Over there.
Was that next-gen Bard's Tale remake produced a few years ago any good? I'm guessing no, but...

talk about necromancy
and this person was probably talking about bard's tale remake from 2004/5?
it's nothing special (an action rpg), but it has charming humor, nice songs and tony jay narrating your life. plus it comes with the original bt games, so there's that.
