It's a game and, I guess, that's where the irony is. A game is only ever any fun if it can be taken seriously enough to warrant the attention it gets. In this case, I think that half the fun is seeing through all the lies and figuring out who the "bad" guys are. Then bashing 'em is really fun. :^)

Besides, as a pastime which I must hope is devoted to pleasure, playing RPGs is a lot like reading and understanding great literary works. Having fun is a gravely serious business for those who wish to make the most of it. :^)
