* WeAreStrugglingTogether: The Rangers have a bit of a team cohesion problem in ''Rebirth'' (as handily demonstrated by how disastrously the gala goes for them if you play your cards right), which develops into a full-blown case of this in ''Retribution''. Lady Argent is barely on speaking terms with Herald after their breakup and prefers working with lower-level vigilantes to the other Rangers, Chen still doesn't fully trust Lady Argent, and you note with some confusion that it's been months since you've seen the team take on a threat as, well, a team.

Ortega explains that they don't actually have a lot of choices about who gets to join--very few people are both qualified and able to pass the stringent security checks. So to stay at full strength, which they badly need in Los Diablos, the Rangers ''can't'' be selective based on a little thing like "works well with the rest of the team".

* ApocalypseHow: The US suffers a Regional Class one in the 1980s: the West Coast and the Midwest get completely ravaged after a massive quake sets off a chain reaction of volanic eruptions and tsunamis. Los Diablos, the setting of the game, was founded from the remains of what used to be Los Angeles.

* KickThemWhileTheyAreDown: The protagonist has the opportunity to do this several times when facing Herald. If they choose not to, it's explicitly because they've invoked this trope many a time during their stint with the Rangers - getting the villan to focus on them to give their team an opening.

* ThereAreNoTherapists: Averted. Ortega actually recommends that you visit one, as it helped them after your death. Whether you decide to follow through with that suggestion or not is up to you.

Dr. Finch turns out to be pretty good at her job, although she's unknowingly hamstrung by the fact you can't tell her the truth about 90% of your problems.

** Lady Argent has super-toughness but lacks super-pain-blocking--getting thrown through a wall doesn't do her any damage, but it sure ''hurts'' like it does.

* AmbiguouslyBrown: Discussed, depending on the race you select for your puppet. As they were checked into the hospital as a John/Jane Doe and are too braindead to make a statement on the matter, you only have a broad-strokes idea of their race and ethnicity (eg, if you decide the puppet is Asian, the narration notes that they could plausibly have pretty much any East or South Asian heritage, but you don't know).
