* At the end of every level in the second game, a cow tells the player "Well done". While intended to be humorous, it's still a rather realistic image of a cow, and seeing it talk can be quite a jarring slip into UnintentionalUncannyValley for some. The [[NothingIsScarier eerily quiet scenery]] during the cutscene and the other realistic cow slowly giving a cartoony smile does not help any matters.
