I'll admit I initially thought Bard was a derogatory term, from the way they were using it in "The Witcher"...

I haven't watched "The Witcher" but "The Bard" is a common, affectionate moniker for one of the English language's most quintessential and influential playwrights and poets.

If anything I'd considered that term to be flattering.

Just sounded derogatory, if you hadn't heard the term before... for example;

> "Stop following me 'Bard'!"
