* AuthorsSavingThrow: One criticism of some early Episode I chapters was the cameos of canon or ''Legends'' characters that don't do much when the story is predominantly original character-focused. Episode I - Chapter 12 addressed this by having Luke Skywalker mention that he was helping fight against the Valkoran Empire while Zolph was recovering from losing his arm as a way of acknowledging that he actually does stuff off-screen. Episode II also went the extra mile to have Luke be present (and not just MissionControl) for some of the Archfiend-related missions and the Battle of Ockla Prime. Also, when Luke was given attention in action scenes, he was portrayed as incredibly powerful on his own compared to Zolph (to the point of triviality) [[spoiler: and acknowledged as powerful enough to be considered a threat or an asset to the Forceless Collective]]. Later chapters also cut down on the number of canon/Legends character cameos.

* DevelopmentHell: Episode III - Chapter 3 marked the longest point of publication time between chapters (being two years), with Matt admitting that there were points where the document for the chapter sat in his hard drive for months with no further progress aside from a few revisions. Eventually, as Matt realized the chapter was getting too big for a for an early-Episode chapter (and the amount of time passing), he decided to split it into two chapters (another Chapters 5 and 6 of Episode II were originally one chapter, but split due to length).

* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Chapter 5 and 6 of Episode II were originally going to be a single chapter, but split due to increasing length, mainly in response to Chapter 4 being the longest chapter Matt had written at that point.
** Chapter 3 and 4 of Episode III were originally going to be one chapter. However, the increasingly apparent length of the chapter, some writer's block, and the increasing ScheduleSlip prompted Matt to split the chapter.

WhatCouldHaveBeen: Sometimes, chapters that take place on one planet were originally one chapter split due to length.
** Chapter 2 and 3 of Episode II (both taking place on Dagobah and dealing with Zolph's repressed trauma) were originally one chapter before being split.
** Chapter 5 and 6 of Episode II (both taking place in the Onderon system, revolving around the threat of Fafniros and Zolph taking steps to mitigate his PTSD) were originally going to be a single chapter, but split due to increasing length, mainly in response to Chapter 4 being the longest chapter Matt had written at that point.

* CreatorBreakdown: After Episode III - Chapter 3 was posted, Matt admitted that some of the delays came from a number of stresses and real life factors, especially when the United States got hit by the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic. Specifically, Matt was considered an essential worker, and a visiting relative (whose visit was extended by two months due to the quarantine) also meant his attention was taken away from working on the project.

* ScheduleSlip: ''Paranormalities'', as highly-developed as it is, Matt works on this project alone, so it can take varying amounts of time to release content for it, whether be it concept art or the chapters themselves. The longest drought between concept art was five months, while it took a year and five months between Episode III's prologue and the first chapter.
* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: Matt has admitted that even though he has an outline of the narrative in his head, some parts are conceptualized during the writing process, including other characters. This alongside other works and concept art are a factor in the series' ScheduleSlip.

The longest drought between concept art was five months, over a year, while it took a year and five months two years between Chapter 2 and 3 of Episode III's prologue III. Being aware of this (and this being mostly a passion project), Matt generally avoids giving specific publication dates for upcoming chapters.

* InMemoriam: Chapter 1 of Episode III was delayed to include a minor role by Leia Organa as a way of paying tribute to Creator/CarrieFisher after she passed away in 2016. Matt has admitted that even though it might show up only once in the story, he felt it needed to be done despite him otherwise being conservative about the usage of canon characters.
