Lionhead, ya see, is shouting at its community to help it out with insults in Fable 2, specifically an alternative to the "tired old" Arseface Hero Title from Fable awarded when "you get enough NPCs to hate your guts".
"So", the developer says in its blog, "if any of you chaps and chappettes have some abusive and derisive ideas, now is the time to shout and share it with the team! Or rather post them in the comments of this blog (we are going to regret this aren't we?), and who knows, if it's G o o d [Good] enough the title might make it onto our shortlist!"
It continues, "The insults should be puerile, but not too puerile, sound at least somewhat original, and not cross a certain line (as an example, "gobshite" has been rejected because, while it might sound funny and wacky to American ears, it's still a bit too strong for Fable and British ears)."
"The thing to remember is that it's a way for Fable villagers to call the Hero an arsehole because they hate him/her and obviously needs to work for both genders."
Shout your insults here.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard director says chasing industry trends with Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem "starts to dilute your focus," so he wanted to get back to BioWare's "very real strength"
Former Blizzard boss says "the only thing bigger" than Sony buying FromSoftware would be if it bought Valve or Nintendo
