* GreenHillZone: Eden is a ''massive'' subversion. It's so bright and cheery, with beautiful scenery and foliage, the perfect temperature for life and rain that heals you on contact. Oh, and that plant life? Unless you're the Psychic, it's poisonous and absolutely trying to murder you, and the tentacles of...something...beneath the place are coming up to finish the job. You might want to get out as quickly as possible and go somewhere safer, like maybe the Hive.

* DeathWorld: Notrium is not a nice place. The majority of the place is infested with hostile alien life, there's very little food except for said alien life (and some fungus, half of which is rotten), and the hive of the alien queens is not the most dangerous area on the map by a fair margin.

* GuideDangIt: Many of the game's most powerful recipes are rather obscure. The pulse laser, in particular, [[spoiler: is made from a laser pistol (which is pretty easy to build and told to you in the description for light diodes) and a glass marble, which can only be made with sand from the missile base and must be "U" used around a fire with a welding torch in your hand. There is nothing in the game that would guide you to this conclusion, and as glass marbles are an essential ingredient to omni-directional light diodes and advanced turrets. Pulse lasers are also essential for making the laser shotgun, and are essential when fighting some of the more powerful baddies in Notrium.]]
