History YMMV / DisventureCamp

** For a character who [[spoiler: doesn't survive past the early merge]], Gabby is easily one of the most popular characters of Season 1, owing to her energetic personality, her wholesome relationship with Ellie, and [[spoiler:playing an integral role in the subplot alongside Tom]].

** While it was initially a fairly popular ship, Connor x Riya lost some supporters after [[spoiler:Riya's FaceHeelTurn, causing her to be hostile even towards him and claim she doesn't need his help after he refused to continue supporting her in the finale upon seeing who she's become.]]

* CommonKnowledge: Whenever Riya's [[spoiler:FaceHeelTurn]] is brought up, those who argue for how bad it was bring up the moment when [[spoiler:she leaves Aiden dangling on a cliff]] during the final challenge before leaving him to die, claiming that it was done deliberately in order to get rid of him. This is only partially true: while Riya ''does'' leave Aiden to die by [[spoiler:falling off a cliff]], what she was actually trying to do was BreakThemByTalking by telling Aiden how he wasn't cut out for the finale, all while walking towards him and Aiden walking backward, which eventually lead to the mentioned moment by accident.

** "Gabellie" (Gabby/Ellie)

* OneTruePairing: Even between the many ships among the first two seasons and the combinations thereof, you'd be hard-pressed to find a fan who doesn't ship Will and Ashley together, as a result of their adorable interactions and healthy dynamic among the more morally neutral pairings in the show.

* EliminationHoudini:
** '''Nick''' in the original version of Season 1, Adventure Camp. [[spoiler:He made it all the way to the final 4 because [[ForgettableCharacter other contestants kept forgetting he was still in the competition]] and were busy with their own conflicts.]]
** '''Fiore''' and '''Gabby''', who were voted out in Episode 1 of the remastered version...only for it to turn out to be a mere team switch instead, Downplayed as it was before the first challenge even began meaning it was technically before the game even began.
** '''Ellie''' and '''Grett''', [[spoiler:who [[HistoryRepeats repeat Fiore and Gabby's example]] in Episode 6-7, at first looking like they've been eliminated when in fact they were just switching teams.]]
** Once more, '''Ellie''' [[spoiler:in Episode 7. Gabby uses her immunity idol to save her, which leads all of Ellie's votes being invalidated and Dan to be eliminated instead.]]
** '''Ally''' and '''Hunter''' [[spoiler:are saved in Episode 8 after Nina [[SpannerInTheWorks tells Karol to share her immunity with them]]]].
** '''Hunter''' in general could be considered this post-merge, as with one sole exception, [[spoiler:he manages to win individual immunity every single time until his luck finally runs out by episode 11. And even then, it's only thanks to Riya playing the Immunity Totem and making her sole vote against him valid that he ends up voted out.]]
** '''James''', [[spoiler:also in Episode 8. Despite seeking {{Revenge}} against him and having a chance to be [[DecidedByOneVote the deciding vote]] for him, Karol wastes it and instead votes for Lake so that her cover of pretending to have forgiven him and Aiden comes off as genuine. She's also gotten rid of in the following episode via a NonGameplayElimination before she could effectively push forward her campaign to vote him or Aiden out.]]
** Of all characters, [[spoiler:'''Riya''' becomes this in episode 11. The guys vote against her unanimously, but because she plays Rosa Maria's Immunity Totem before the voting begins, all their votes are invalidated and her sole vote against Hunter leads to his elimination instead.]]
** '''Fiore''' during the [[spoiler:second episode of All-Stars has all the markings to be the first boot of the season: her team doesn't like her, with Hunter having a particular animosity with her, and she also happens to be the weakest member of the team, having done rather terribly during the challenge. She only ends up being saved by a sudden fight breaking out between James and Jake, forcing Ashley to vote for the former to help the latter, which allows Fiore to live another day.]]

** You'd be hard pressed to find someone who didn't like Connor, due to his status as an older contestant with a friendly and encouraging personality, his struggles with his aging and trying to stay current with a younger generation causing many funny moments of awkwardness, and being one of the most openly vocal against Yul and his negative and awful attitude. Some people have even made plenty of fanarts featuring him.

** During ''All-Stars'' episode 5, a rogue vote for Yul is made, with the guy immediately pinpointing Connor as the suspect. Given both this and the handwriting of the vote, [[spoiler:it was obvious that Riya was the one who voted for Yul, given that the two have been at each other's throats the entire season up to that point, and Grett, Yul's girlfriend and the other possible suspect, doesn't have a clear enough motive to vote for him just yet]].

* CaptainObviousReveal: Episode 7 of Season 1 reveals that [[spoiler:Ellie and Grett merely switched teams instead of being eliminated.]] This was pretty easy to predict based on several clues: from the mysterious {{Cliffhanger}} scene and Derek thanking the Patreons in their place, to the show creators being guests on Silly Billy's review of the episode rather than the voice actresses of Ellie and Grett. There's also the fact that [[spoiler:Episode 6]] was one of two cases where both teams had to vote someone out (as a whole team rather than one member of the winning team getting to eliminate someone from the losing team in Epsidoe 5), with the previous one being Episode 1, which pulled off the same twist.

* CharacterPerceptionEvolution:
** Hoo boy, did Hunter go through probably every possible stage in a record time. During the early episodes, Hunter was among the fan favorites for being a relatable and rootable NiceGuy, being strategic without being unsympathetic, the popularity of both his ships with Tess and Ally (with the trio being shipped together also being a fairly popular choice) as well as due to some fans being invested in the theory that he would turn out to be the HiddenVillain of the season. However, he then became a BaseBreakingCharacter after [[spoiler:episodes 4-6 started giving him quite frequent UnintentionallyUnsympathetic moments. While initially at about a middle ground during Episode 4, his reception started leaning more towards the negative side during episodes 5-6 when he revealed he took Tess's pills without her knowing in the former episode and kept avoiding the girls in the latter, which was not only seen as outright unsympathetic but also wasn't received well by shippers of both of his ships. His base-breaker status leaned more towards the positive side once episodes 7-8 focused again on making him TrueCompanions with both Tess and Ally. Then, Episode 9 turned him into outright TheScrappy for [[ATragedyOfImpulsiveness impulsively kissing Ally despite telling the girls to wait for his answer after the show ends]] as well as because it became hard not to notice he's been handled 3 contrived immunity wins in a row. Episode 10 then made him RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap, reverting him back to BaseBreakerCharacter status, by making him acknowledge and genuinely regret his impulsive mistake, actually earn his victory for a change, and [[OddFriendship befriend Rosa Maria]] whom he was the only person to trust and not vote for after she was framed for stealing others' belongings.]]
** Ally was one of the more popular contestants of the second season because of her GamerChick and NiceGirl personality, along with her interactions with Tess and Hunter. However, the later episodes decreased her status by having her make some dumb decisions (taking a shower when a killer is on the loose, building a snowboard instead of a sled as instructed, etc.) and not having much in terms of plot contribution and character growth. While Ally does have her fans, most people now see her as generic.
** Yul, while never the most complex character, was given significant attention by the fandom during the early episode back when it looked like he was gonna be a main antagonist. However, once he was [[spoiler:eliminated]], he became a BaseBreakingCharacter, with people wondering if he was a decent antagonist for his time of the game, or if more should've been done with him.
** [[spoiler:Riya]] is possibly tied with Hunter for the most drastic change in character perception, even though they don't go through as many changes as him. When the season first starts, the character essentially acts as a background character until the plot gives them something to do, and at that time audiences either liked the character but wished they did more, or were outright neutral towards them. Come the latter half of Season 2, [[spoiler:Riya goes through a FaceHeelTurn that results in her becoming the final antagonist for the season, which caused her reception to shatter the audience between those who enjoy the direction and think Riya serves as a decent villain to cap off the season, while others think the change is too abrupt and extreme for it to feel natural]].

* EnsembleDarkhorse:
** Ashley is possibly the most popular season 1 contestant [[spoiler:who didn't make it to the merge.]] She's a well-meaning, but brave cowgirl who has good interactions with characters like Will and Lill, and unlike the Beta version, she figures out Fiore's true nature before it's too late, [[spoiler: although she's still eliminated fairly early by Gabby's sole vote]]. She is also considered one of the prettiest girls in the season. Her status as one of these is why she likely returned for All Stars.
** Drew, [[spoiler:the second boot of the first season]], has a smaller but loyal fanbase who loves him for being a NiceGuy who writes in his notebook to communicate since he doesn't talk. The fact that he's one of the few characters who didn't appear in the Beta version also makes him interesting.
** You'd be hard pressed to find someone who didn't like Connor, due to his status as an older contestant with a friendly and encouraging personality, his struggles with his aging and trying to stay current with a younger generation causing many funny moments of awkwardness, and being one of the most openly vocal against Yul and his negative and awful attitude. Some people have even made plenty of fanarts featuring him.

* CryForTheDevil: With most characters being given more depths, it's actually not that hard to sympathize with and feel sorry for the antagonists of the show. Many of them have JerkassWoobie moments, have valid reasons to win the money, and have to deal with hardships even when they're not doing anything wrong after becoming HatedByAll due to their past strategies.

* {{Moe}}: Ally, Fiore, Gabby, Jake, Lake, Maggy, and Trevor.

** '''Fiore''' during the [[spoiler:first episode of All-Stars has all the markings to be the first boot of the season: her team doesn't like her, with hunter having a particular animosity with her, and she also happens to be the weakest member of the team, having done rather terribly during the challenge. She only ends up being saved by a sudden fight breaking out between James and Jake, forcing Ashley to vote for the former to help the latter, which allows Fiore to live another day.]]

** Nick in the original version of Season 1, Adventure Camp. [[spoiler:He made it all the way to the final 4 because [[ForgettableCharacter other contestants kept forgetting he was still in the competition]] and were busy with their own conflicts.]]
** Fiore and Gabby, who were voted out in Episode 1 of the remastered version...only for it to turn out to be a mere team switch instead, Downplayed as it was before the first challenge even began meaning it was technically before the game even began.
** Ellie and Grett, [[spoiler:who [[HistoryRepeats repeat Fiore and Gabby's example]] in Episode 6-7.]]
** Once more, Ellie [[spoiler:in Episode 7. Gabby uses her immunity idol to save her.]]
** Ally and Hunter [[spoiler:are saved in Episode 8 after Nina [[SpannerInTheWorks tells Karol to share her immunity with them]]]]. Hunter counts in general due to [[spoiler:[[PlotArmor never being at risk of elimination]] before his elimination episode.]]
** James, [[spoiler:also in Episode 8. Despite seeking {{Revenge}} against him and having a chance to be [[DecidedByOneVote the deciding vote]] for him, Karol wastes it and instead votes for Lake so that her cover of pretending to have forgiven him and Aiden comes off as genuine. She's also gotten rid of in the following episode via a NonGameplayElimination before she could effectively push forward her campaign to vote him or Aiden out.]]

* {{Narm}}: The voice acting for the English dub, especially Season 2 in particular, has been criticized by some for some of the line deliveries being seen as dull. Some characters sometimes mispronounce certain words (granted, some of the voice actors are not native English speakers like James and Gabby's for example). Considering some of the characters hail from countries outside Canada and the U.S., this could be intentional.

* CrossesTheLineTwice:
** In episode [[spoiler:12]], Miriam throws Fiore off the cliff, lets go of a rope so that she'd fall of a platform and throws her up a high pole to catch a flag, all of which is considered abusive. Child Abuse? ''Horrible''. That fact that it's all happening to [[EnfantTerrible Fiore]]? ''Hilarious!''
** How some may see Miriam [[spoiler:eliminating Ellie in the finale by pretending to suffer from a heart attack to steal and throw away her shovel.]]

** [[spoiler:It can come as a detriment to certain scenes where the scene in season two where Riya reveals to Rosa Maria she stole her totem and framed her comes off as awkward due to the more flat delivery.]]

[[spoiler:It can come as a detriment to certain scenes where the scene in season two where Riya reveals to Rosa Maria she stole her totem and framed her comes off as awkward due to the more flat delivery.]]

* {{Narm}}: The voice acting for the English version can come off as this considering it's been criticized for making the line deliveries be seen as dull or making constant mispronounciations for words as major as characters' names or for some of the simpliest words in English vocabulary that you'd suspect they'd know how to pronounce or at least would've been corrected about during production. James's voice actor is a big example, especially when he mispronounces words like Riya as "Wry-a" or "scissors" as "sizers", to the point where the creators referenced this by having James misspell her name as “Raya” once when voting. Other notable examples include Riya's voice actress mispronouncing Yul's name as "Jul" (although this could be justified due to Y in Spanish making a sound almost identical to English J) or the word "girlfriend" as "geerlfriend" (an understandable example though, as the near-close near-front unrounded vowel (English "i") and the close front unrounded vowel (English long "E") are merged in some languages and dialects) or Gabby's voice actress, who's most notorious for making grammar mistakes, pronouncing past tense "voted" as present tense "vote" every single time or saying "'''Ellie been''' trying to save you" to Tom. Justified, as James is Brazilian, Riya is Indian, and Gabby is Polish, so their first languages would most likely be Brazilian Portuguese, Hindi, and Polish respectively, although it doesn't explain the production team not correcting them about the proper pronounciation.

** While there were various theories about what the mysterious card meant exactly for them, it was generally predicted that [[spoiler:Ellie and Grett weren't eliminated in Episode 6.]]

Justified, as James is Brazilian, Riya is Indian, and Gabby is Polish, so their first languages would most likely be Brazilian Portuguese, Hindi, and Polish respectively.

* StrawmanHasAPoint: While Ellie was rather harsh in her words about her fellow contestants in post-Season 1 interviews, which even her own girlfriend points out, she did raise some valid points. Namely, why would a secret spy enter a reality show where their identity and job was bound to be revealed to the public, calling out Miriam for [[CrossesTheLineTwice pretending to have a heart attack to eliminate her]], or calling out Alec for claiming on international TV that he wished his son was more like [[EnfantTerrible Fiore]].

** [[spoiler: Will, being both the first boot of the first season and the second of the original version. Some fans wish his friendship with Lil and Ashley was explored more. Some even wish he became less cowardly over time. Unlike Oliver , it’s unlikely he will return as an intern or at all. There's also the fact that a LovableCoward was eliminated right before a WhatDoTheyFearEpisode.]]
** [[spoiler: Drew, one of the new contestants added to the remake, is booted in the third episode through Dan’s old boot method. This split the fandom quite a bit as many had come to adore Drew for his silent nature and wondering why he only communicated through notes, as well as the fact that the audience learned nothing about Drew before his boot other than his note writing, which was used to give him an excuse to be booted, making him feel more like deliberate padding than an actual contestant.]]
