* {{Anvilicious}}: Some players view the dialogue in New Challenges as pandering too heavily to the more liberal crowd, viewing it as a case of preaching to the choir as Arcade Spirits is targeted towards LGBT+ players. Characters have a tendency to espouse their own viewpoints on hot button social justice issues to the player, which can be jarring in context. It is especially blatant in Locksley’s route because being passionate about social justice is a core part of his character.

* FranchiseOriginalSin: The original Arcade Spirits referenced modern day politics in some character’s backstories, such as Gavin’s family’s struggles with being black in America. However, the sequel increases the amount of times characters bring up modern day politics and social justice issues to the point many players felt the game was being overly preachy.
