| 2 | * ApprovalOfGod: Destructive Creations has given praise and support to many of the fanmade Website/YouTube parodies of their Hatred trailer, such as the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Z6hNXsldMU HUG version]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_eX0BFIlKo Minecraft version]]. They also gave praise to Björn Borg's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WoV9Lai1CM First Person Lover]], which also parodies Hatred's trailer. |
| 3 | * AscendedFanNickname: Destructive Creations have taken to calling the protagonist "Not Important" after it became his FanNickname. |
| 4 | * ColbertBump: The amount of controversy the press has given this game essentially ensured its success. |
| 5 | * FlipFlopOfGod: The game suffered from this pre-release regarding its story. The developers never made it clear if there wouldn't be a story that explains the main character's motives and past, or there would be a narrative that reveals why the protagonist is committing mass genocide. Upon the game's early access release, it showed that the game falls into the former regarding story, in that there practically is none. |
| 6 | * StreisandEffect: ''Hatred'' was on Steam Greenlight for only a short time before being taken down. In that time it got to rank 7 on the Greenlight board. Gabe Newell emailed an apology to Destructive Creations regarding this, and it is now back on Steam. The Streisand Effect? After it was put back on Greenlight, ''it reached the number one spot in only a few hours''. In fact, it appears that the developer is trying to ''{{invoke|dTrope}}'' the Streisand effect as much as possible (see YMMV page). It doesn't help that websites such as Polygon and Kotaku have released numerous articles about how controversial and sickening the game is, while at the same time [[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity giving the game a ton of attention.]] |
