<a href="http://pc.ign.com">IGN</A> have a <a href="http://pc.ign.com/articles/632/632171p1.html">developer's diary</A> on the creation of Fable: The Lost Chapters, showing us just how they manage to pack so much comedy gold into their games:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>The chart looks something like this:
<br>
<br>
<b>1) Does the script involve men dressing as women?</b>
<br>
<br>
a. Yes. The hero. He looks ridiculous. Ahahahahahahaha.
<br>
b. Yes, a villager, but you can't really tell 'cos Fable's women are a bit suspect anyhow. But it's still a guy in a cocktail dress.
<br>
c. Nope. You see, it's a serious quest. Cross-dressing would just kill the dramatic tension.</blockquote>
<br>
<br>
Hilarious.

Were the developers all locked in a room for ten years and the resultting inbreed offspring was tasked with coming up with this stuff?

We can only hope. That this may have been created in any other way terrifies me.
