* IKnewIt: Many fans felt that Nathan Sterling [[spoiler:being the person who crashed Tyler's car was too predictable because he, Beau, and Kassidy immediately befriended Tyler and paid for his medical bills after the car crash, which raised a red flag.]]

** Sebastian becomes this throughout ''The Sophomore'' and, to a lesser extent, ''The Junior''. A group likes him after his friendship with Tyler and his genuine change of heart against his father, and doesn't mind forgiving him despite his initially antagonistic attitude. Another group hates him for his {{Jerkass}} attitude towards the gang (especially Chris and Zig), points out that he has [[KarmaHoudini yet to answer for any of his misdeeds because one of them (embezzlement of election funds) is a serious crime against the university]], expresses anger that the narrative has Emily forgive him, and considers him unworthy of redemption, especially since he could've killed the gang by sabotaging their house after they didn't immediately forgive him. His detractors also find it unfair that some people forgive him right away while continuing to hate on Becca even though the latter, while far from a saint, has done less severe things, never commits crimes, and also genuinely changes for the better. His absence in group scenes throughout ''The Senior'' has led detractors to deem his redemption arc unnecessary as well as one of the worst in the game, given that it boils down to him initially saying that it's hard to be nice, which players find an overdone and weak motive.
