** The repetition of the limited amount of voiced lines characters have can become this if something plays that directly contradicts what's currently happening, leading to possible funny gaffs like Andrey worriedly asking about how his brother is doing... while Peter is standing right next to him.

* ObviousBeta: Definitely. The game's innovative and well-written story and atmosphere are often marred by the rather clunky and buggy engine. There are quite a few annoying bugs that can mess up the gameplay or disrupt its otherwise highly immersive atmosphere. And the wobbly and seemingly rushed English translation and dub needlessly add to the already existing issues. The HD remake released in 2015 has correct (well, more correct than before; "Simon is a sorcerer?" is still there) English translations and improved graphics.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: It's said that Dankoski was a head of the crew of the Thanatica Laboratory, whose goal was actually cheating Death, and the Laboratory was closed by the Authorities and Professor Tehlmann. Despite having so little information on it, Thanatica is a frequent object of fanart and WMG.

* BetterAsALetsPlay: The game is almost as infamous for its absurd difficulty curve as it is for its narrative complexity, meaning that a lot of players are scared off early on. According to Steam achievements, around fifteen percent of players make it past the first day, in a game that takes place over eleven days. For three characters. As a result, most fans of the game either experienced it through a Let's Play or one of the many video essays that help better explain the game's obtuse survival mechanics and difficult-to-follow story.

* HarsherInHindsight: The game about mysterious pandemic nobody knows how to deal with, which deadliness is accelerated by incompetency, obstructive bureaucracy and ongoing political infightings, strikes much more differently after [[UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic certain events of early 2020s]].
