  • Creator Backlash: The reason why Rooster Teeth was reluctant to even make a second season. The DVDs were even selling for just $1 in their store!
  • The Other Darrin: Season 2 replaces a few cast members with people closer to RT, such as Ashley Jenkins and Machinima.com's Paul Marino.
  • Sequel Gap: There were 9 years between the first and second season.
  • Troubled Production: As noted by a New York Times piece on Rooster Teeth, machinima on The Sims is akin to trying to directing real actors as opposed to the simpler "input commands to make the characters move" in every other RT series, given any action needs to be preceded by making Sims predisposed (the very opening scene with Sam and Wade in bed needed those Sims to be good friends) and when the Sims get bored, they storm off. No wonder the season 2 Credits Gag has the machinimation crew very angry!
  • Writer Revolt: Case in point, the later half of season two is full of potshots at Ray, whose constant references to the show was what ultimately led to it being added as a stretch goal to Lazer Team's crowdfunding campaign.
