Regardless of who your favourite character is, everyone cannot help but enjoy listening to Ellis' crazy stories (with Keith!). GamesRader talks with Chet Faliszek, main scriptwriter for Valve, and we learn about the process involved in creating the characters and certain aspects of the game, as well as the reasons why Ellis has turned into one of Valve's most loved individuals in the Left 4 Dead series.

Chet Faliszek began his life making amusing scribbles on the legendary website Old Man Murray with Erik Wolpaw, before being plucked to work at Valve by Gabe Newell himself. Since then, Chet has provided delicate words to tumble from Alyx’s mouth and has been, among other duties, chief scribe for the Left 4 Dead series. He’s a charming and gentle sort: thoroughly undeserving of the YouTube hate videos he’s popped up in over the past year. (And all because Valve dared to release a sequel to L4D that people had to pay for.) We shoved a microphone in his face and requested that he talk.
