** The concept of AudienceParticipation would've been interesting.. if it didn't mean the audience could influence the most random of potential outcomes into happening. The result is that entire plot lines come and go without explanation or completion, the random Avatar cameos often became a BigLippedAlligatorMoment, and seemingly major characters will just [[AnyoneCanDie abruptly die]] because the worst possible option got picked, only to [[WeHaveReserves get replaced]] and either continue the plot or completely move onto something else like nothing prior mattered.
** Whether due to voice direction, or some sort of unconfirmed text to speech setup, virtually every character is absolutely wooden or a LargeHam in overdoing their lines, with no real in-between. Many characters came off as just uninterested in anything happening around them as a result.

** [[https://twitter.com/VoidBurger/status/1728310533147791602 BerryMan]], the random Avatar cameo that came out of nowhere, rambled about collecting berries, implies he did see something interesting but never explains it, and then leaves. He became the ''perfect'' star example of how utterly disjointed and nonsensical the attempts at a story were thanks to its format.
