* UncertainAudience: An unfortunate case of trying to please fans of the Bayverse movies and the High Moon games and only alienating both in the process, given that both are wildly different audiences. The plot is a rather awkward attempt to mash two wildly-different continuities together, but they barely ever affect each other, as neither continuities' casts encounter the other. Not to mention that most of the story focus goes to the WFC-verse cast, while the Bayverse characters hardly get anything, making the latter's inclusion that much more questionable. Add in the fact that ''Rise of the Dark Spark'' reuses tons of assets, sometimes to their detriment (like AOE Grimlock reusing FOC Grimlock's animations, including stabbing enemies... even though he uses a mace), and it ends up being that much harder to enjoy.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The idea of several Transformers continuities fighting alongside each other sounds like a very good idea, like a Transformers version of ''VideoGame/SpiderManShatteredDimensions''. The franchise already has history with multiversal characters, such as The Fallen or even [[BigBad Unicron]] who could easily be used as a villain. Throw in a few {{Fandom Nod}}s (Such as G1 Optimus disapproving Movie Optimus's brutality, for example) and possibly a multiplayer mode. Instead there is ZERO interaction between the multiple universes, with the only "connection" being the appearance of the Dark Spark in each universe.

* FanonDiscontinuity: For anyone not a fan of ''Film/TransformersAgeOfExtinction'', trying to tie in the game universe and the film series is something they'd rather pretend didn't happen. Not that it could happen, as the two stories are completely incompatible.
** And if that isn't a reason enough for it, then most everyone agrees that the worse, recycled gameplay and lackluster story compared to the last two installments seal the deal.
