* JerkassWoobie: Is Connor a jerk? Yes. Has he done some very wrong things? Also yes. We really only see him at the worst time in his life. His only paying client in years turns out to be [[spoiler:a serial killer and, practically, a necromancer]], and he has to keep quiet about it -- not only [[PunchClockVillain for much-needed income]], but because after learning what Mark is capable of, [[TrappedInVillainy he's terrified of what Mark might do if he defies him]]. The guilt is eating him alive. [[spoiler:And it was all for nothing, since Mark cancelled the game; a fatal mistake, as that meant Connor [[TheDogBitesBack now had nothing to lose]]. And in the end, he [[DrivenToSuicide paid with his life]] for it as well.]] He's also a single parent (due to being [[RunawayBride left at the altar]]) of a child who was at the time twelve years old, so there's that pressure on him as well.

** Even though Chelsie turned Stumbler down, she kept the painting he did of the two of them; it can be seen next to her behind the counter of her shop. Even if she can't see it anymore, it still meant enough to her to hang onto.

On second thought, that might be a bit premature.


* FandomRivalry: While the ''Shipwrecked'' fandom used to be amicable with the ''WebVideo/CatastropheCrow'' fandom, a very sudden rift formed after the playable build of the latter actually came out, with fans of each tearing into the flaws of the other.

* FanPreferredCouple: Despite Stumbler O'Hare's minigame being about him trying to impress another rabbit that he has a crush on, the most popular ship in the fandom is pairing Stumbler with Chief Wulf. This got even more pronounced when WordOfGod said Stumbler's crush ultimately wasn't impressed by his efforts, and subsequent supplementary material such as ''[[https://broadside.fandom.com/wiki/Wulf%27s_Recollection Wulf's Recollection]]'' and an out-of-bounds conversation with Wulf in the April Fools 2024 update cemented that they do at least care deeply about each other. This can be funny when one remembers that [[spoiler:it's FoeYay by proxy, with Wulf being Connor Thomas's AuthorAvatar and Stumbler being a caricature of Mark Mullins and his wife, even if neither of them are terribly happy about their respective origins]].

** The reveal that [[spoiler: the head of the team restoring the game was the son of the deceased Conner Thomas]] can be a real gut punch.
