We are living in an age of great Bards. Whether it's Jaskier making Toss a Coin to Your Witcher a smash hit; Edgin leading his party in the unexpectedly brilliant Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves; or Zenn, the half-elf drow, rescuing druids, tieflings, deep gnomes and anyone else who needs saving in Baldur's Gate 3.
You might be less familiar with that last one because he's my player character in Larian's gargantuan RPG. He's the best. Whenever I settle on a class in any RPG there's always a bit of doubt, a bit of regret, as I wonder if I made the right choice. Not so here, however, where every second I spend as a Bard vindicates my decision. If you're wondering what class to roll, the answer is Bard.
