* EnjoyTheStorySkipTheGame: While the gameplay has its fans, the general consensus is that the gameplay is passable for a gacha game and isn't especially notable or difficult beyond certain endgame contents. Many players tout that the real draw is the story and characters, which tend to receive far more attention.

* ScrappyWeapon: Submachine Guns are supposed have a higher fire rate compared to Assault Rifles at the expense of accuracy. The other short-ranged weapon, Shotguns, while supposed to focus on burst damage, is capable of superseding it thanks to the absurd damage it does in close range, meaning that any Nikke that has this as their weapon tend must have an extremely well-received kit to compensate for it like Liter.

They are notably the only weapon tend must have an extremely well-received kit type to compensate for it receive multiple dedicated supports, like Liter.Tove (who is amusingly an AR user) and Privaty: Unkind Maid, who help but don't fully fix the weapon's problems.

* BreatherBoss: Special Interception Chatterbox is significantly easier than the other bosses in the Special Interception rotation. He is extremely predictable, has a fairly low rate of attack and mainly dishes out single hit attacks that punch really hard. [[GameBreaker Centi]] can wall his attacks with relative ease because of barrier mechanics, allowing a decently raised team to wear him down to death without an overt fear of being one-shot. The only threatening attacks in his arsenal are his missiles, which are kinetic projectiles and can be shot down or blocked by cover, and his burning slam, which only happens if you end up breaking his head/core.
* SI Blacksmith as well. His pattern is to shoot at one target, launch some slow projectiles that can be destroyed easily and has two big weakspots that can be hurt for big damage. The only thing to look out for are tendrils that come out after its HP goes down a certain percent but are easily destroyable circles.

** Special Interception Modernia, while a bit of a step up in difficulty compared to the previous two, is still leagues easier than Grave Digger and Alteisen Mk. VI. Her most dangerous attack (and opening move), a laser that stuns every Nikke hit for ''several seconds'', is only used while her Core part is present. Her other attacks consist of basic shots that do manageable damage, and bombs that hang in the air before darting towards their targets, giving plenty of time to destroy them. As long as her two wings aren't destroyed after bursting down her Core, she will alternate between these two attacks for the entire fight.

**Dependent on who you have in your squad, any playable Nikke qualifies but if the poll held for the free costume during the half-year anniversasry is an indication: Modernia and Scarlet both have a million votes each while third place (Alice) didn't even reach half a million!
*** The bunnies and Viper get a lot of attention for being in a wholesome threesome with the Commander and Viper being a toxic, sexy and bossy seductress.

When the second crossover, ''VideoGame/NierAutomata'' was added to the game, the characters were given proper English voices but not Korean ones.
