** Aria gets a lot of this. Why? Because you have to play as her [[PlotTailoredToTheParty to see the last third of the story]]. What's so bad about that? For those unaware, Aria can only use the dagger, [[OneHitPointWonder has half a heart of health]], and [[HarderThanHard dies if she misses a beat]]. While some are happy that the main story ends off with a challenge that really tests your game knowledge and rhythm skills, others are frustrated ''at best'' that playing as the second hardest character in the game after [[BraggingRightsReward Coda]] is mandatory to see the ending. Aria was later patched to start with a potion, and this change was contested almost as much as Aria herself.

** Plenty of people are angry about Aria as of the full release. Why? Because you have to play as her [[PlotTailoredToTheParty to see the last third of the story]]. For those unaware, Aria can only use the dagger, [[OneHitPointWonder has half a heart of health]], and [[HarderThanHard dies if she misses a beat]]. While many are happy that the game is as challenging as possible, others are ''pissed'' that they have to play as the second hardest character in the game after [[BraggingRightsReward Coda]]. Later, Aria was patched to start with a potion. The change was contested almost as much as Aria herself.
** Bard is the only character in the game that doesn't need to follow the beat. A lot of people hate his gameplay for being very easy and generic, while a lot of people also love him, either because he is good for newcomers and learning new stages/enemies or because his speedruns are much faster since he is not limited by the groove.

The Version 3.0.0 update in 2022 would add a "No Beat" mode as an option for all characters, to similarly mixed response.



* ThatOneAchievement: The "Impossible, Right?" achievement requires you to beat an entire All Zones Run as Coda, an unlockable character that moves at double speed, dies upon picking up any gold, missing a beat, or getting hit, and can only use the starting dagger. With how difficult it is to unlock Coda (by completing an All Characters run) combined with the task itself, it should be no surprise that only around 30 people have been documented to have legitimately obtained this achievement.
