1* CrackPairing: In the original game, Locke and Celes had a budding romance. This makes interactions between their replacements, Applebloom and Trixie, somewhat awkward to see. Though their relationship certainly isn't romantic.
2* HoYay: Unfortunately for the rewrite, Trixie (Celes) and Apple Bloom (Locke) [[DubText still have a lot of awkward chemistry]], making it look less like friendship and more like [[NoYay er, something else.]]
3* {{Narm}}: Some references and characters really haven't aged well since the hack was made, making them more than a bit embarrassing now. Coupled with [[QuestionableCasting some rather strange character replacements]], it's no wonder there's being calls for a rewrite.
4** A few Website/YouTube commenters have remarked that they think Spike and Rarity would have been better in the roles of Locke and Celes instead of Apple Bloom and Trixie for {{o|fficialCouple}}bvious [[OneTruePairing reasons]].
5** For that matter, some fans claim [[MagicKnight Shining Armor]] should have been a natural choice for [[MyCountryRightOrWrong General Leo]] instead of Zecora. That said, Zecora certainly gives [[RhymesOnADime more memorable dialogue]].
6** It's a bit odd that the person who plans to rule an Empire of Magic is Gilda the Griffon, since Griffons are not known to use magic in any [[OurGryphonsAreDifferent (pony-based)]] works.
7* QuestionableCasting: One of the hack's most contentious issues is some of the odd casting choices, with one of the most infamous being ''Gilda'' as Emperor Gestahl. This means that a TotallyRadical MonsterOfTheWeek is trying to take over Equestria, while Discord, a MadGod, is subservient to her for unexplained reasons.
8* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Queen Chrysalis is in the hack as an OptionalBoss, when she would have been a great choice to fill the role of Emperor Gestahl instead of Gilda.
