* AudienceAlienatingEnding: The plot suddenly comes to a dead halt when [[spoiler:the characters all find out they're video game characters.

** A later patch after release cut down on the self-referential in-jokes and TakeThat shots against other game studios after fan backlash, instead relegating it to a flippable option called "[[SelfDeprecation Annoying In-Jokes]]".
** Some people complained that there wasn't any dynamic between any of the playable characters, due to the fact most of them talk to each other once for the most part. A patch on June 22, 2017 gave the playable characters the ability to greet and talk to each other.

* SpiritualSuccessor: This game has so many {{Shout Out}}s and gags about ''VideoGame/ManiacMansion'' that it's ''thematically'' more of a direct sequel than the ''actual'' sequel ''VideoGame/DayOfTheTentacle''.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process

** Ransome's dialogue, and even his backstory is just so cruel-natured it becomes somewhat funny. Especially since the premise itself is quite weird.
** Place all the characters in the diner... then make them eat the hot dogs. One by one. [[CrueltyIsTheOnlyOption You have to do this]], but the fact nobody learns anything from seeing everyone eat the hot dogs then go puke in the back alley becomes hilarious.

Misuse. Does not mention audience avoiding work.

* EndingAversion: Most players and reviewers loved the game and its story, but weren't fond of the overly self-referential and ultimately unsatisfying ending.

* TearJerker: Ransome's bad ending. When faced with [[spoiler:the game world being deleted,]] he decides to perform one last show in an attempt to turn over a new leaf. However, if the player makes the wrong choices, Ransome ends up ruining his only chance to redeem himself, and is forced to relive the moment his life went to hell. This causes him to [[NotSoStoic completely lose his snarky facade]] and [[InelegantBlubbering break into tears]].
