| 1 | * CreatorBacklash: The Website/SomethingAwful LetsPlay of the Mythos was quite scathing of ''5 Days'' and ''7 Days'', and had its complaints about ''Notes'' and ''6 Days'' as well. Yahtzee himself joined the thread fairly early on, took its criticism very gracefully, agreed wholeheartedly with nearly all of it, and noted that it was a growing experience for him. Overall Yahtzee doesn't believe the series is all that good, but he's not ashamed of it. |
| 2 | -->'''Yahtzee''': Chzo was, objectively, a Good Thing for me. There's no reason to be ashamed by past works because the only person who should be ashamed is the person you were when you made them, and that person no longer exists. It's said that every artist/writer/whatever creative type has 10,000 bad paintings/stories/projects in them, and it's just a matter of getting through them all. Chzo was part of that. So I don't regret anything about them. I can't make people forget about the rougher bits. But I can criticise them along with everyone else. |
| 3 | * ReferencedBy: Elements of the setting are reused in later games by Yahtzee. ''VideoGame/TheConsumingShadow'', a Yahtzee game released in 2015, has Chzo as one of the potential {{Eldritch Abomination}}s you need to fight, the Tall Man as an EliteMook, and [[PreviousPlayerCharacterCameo the Ministry Man player character is strongly implied to be Trilby]]. The Ministry is also central to his novel ''Literature/DifferentlyMorphous'' |
| 4 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: |
| 5 | ** In the commentary for ''6 Days'', Yahtzee mentions he originally wanted every playthrough to be completely random: Every time a player started a new game, the order of days would shift so sometimes you'd play day 4 before day 3 and so on. He scrapped the idea because he wanted to be "ambiguous, not impenetrable." |
| 6 | ** ''5 Days a Stranger'' was supposed to take place in space, with the protagonists being clones with implanted memories, and the villain was to have been an insane AI. Some elements of this idea [[RefittedForSequel can be seen]] in the other three games. |
