Today, on their Facebook page, CD Projekt RED announced their new game The Bard.   

I would totally buy this game.

Is it wrong that I want to play this?

Dandelion is an awesome character, especially in the books.

Oh shit, it's April 1st! Didn't even notice...

I love the CD Project Red guys. This is how you do an entertaining April Fools joke! Can't wait to play Witcher 2. Would be really interesting if this made it into a little episode like "Price of Neutrality" or something like that because it sounds pretty cool.

The Witcher 2 Engine looks fantastic.

Not sure where you got the "no violence" from, he beats things down with his lute and fucks monsters up to the point where they explode into a cloud of blood. 
 
But I would buy this game the instant it was released if it was real.

" It does have violence though look. That's actually a bit of a disappointment, even for a joke. I would love to play a WRPG-style game where you don't play as a hero fighter character.  "

Great find.

I want to play The Witcher 2 after watching that...

" @ajamafalous: I can be whoever you want me to be. "

" @ajamafalous: I can be whoever you want me to be. "

I'd play it if it weren't for the "it plays itself" because that actually sounds like an interesting experiment.
 
I also wish that April Fools jokes were better. This is so obviously false that it's just "oh, I guess that's kinda funny"

Man that game looks great.  I would totally play it if it was real, and Dandelion is a pimp.

Finally a fast and light web browser that looks good.
