* LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt: When Jamie is put up for elimination in Chapter 9, most fans didn't believe that they would actually be voted out since eliminating the player-character that early would make the rest of the book completely anticlimactic. [[spoiler:But in a ShockingElimination, Jamie is indeed voted out... and spends less than two chapters in the Jury House before winning the Comeback Challenge and returning to the competition.]]

* EvilIsSexy:
** Bianca and Lina, who have the habit of wearing extremely plunging necklines and treating everyone horribly.
** A surprisingly large number of players want to romance Ivy and Vince despite their villainous natures, either because they find them attractive, or because they present an appealing alternative to the [[AllGirlsWantBadBoys squeaky-clean love interests]].

** Ivy after she was revealed to be Book 1's Big Bad. Some players view her as a pragmatist and don't have an issue with her maintaining a facade. Others despise her for manipulating Jamie's emotions and seemingly having no remorse for her actions (it doesn't help that Book 1 [[StoryBranchFavoritism favors her haters]], since she's the Big Bad, and you tend to keep losing points with her, especially after the reveal). Her behavior in All-Stars has people split between whether she wants to make amends or is up to her old tricks. It doesn't help that she accused Jamie of cheating and holding a grudge against her (even if the player had been nice to her). Those who believe she can change choose to play nice with her and try to gain her as an ally this time around, while those who believe she's still the same person would rather put up with Slater's cheating.

** Slater. His supporters like him for his charming personality, determination to win, and pragmatic playing style. His detractors dislike him for his manipulative behavior towards others and tendency to cheat.

* WTHCostumingDepartment: Male!Jamie's premium tuxedo in Book 3 Chapter 13 has been criticized by many players for its bright colors and floral patterns, which they find overly flashy and out of place for a wedding.

* DiagnosedByTheAudience: It is heavily implied in All-Stars Chapter 12 that Carson Stewart [[spoiler:is suffering from depression.]]

** The decisions to eliminate which contestant in the event of ties. Season 10 has Bianca or Teagan in Chapter 2, Han or Lina in Chapter 6, and Derek or Mackenzie in Chapter 16. All Stars has Eden or Heath in Chapter 3 and Bianca or Yvette in Chapter 5[[note]]The narrative presents Ronan and Kiana as at risk of elimination as well, but the former gets eliminated and the latter stays regardless[[/note]]. Depending on the player's strategies and opinions on these characters, they can be either easy or hard.
** Fans have different views on Ivy returning for All-Stars. Some believe that this is a chance for her and Jamie to make amends or just enjoyed her manipulative personality. Others despise that Ivy is back and still harbor negative feelings towards her.
** Jen being PromotedToLoveInterest. On one hand, there is a group of fans who wanted her to become a love interest from the start due to the ShipTease she has with Jamie. On the other hand, there is a group of fans who is against the idea and believe that she's better off serving as Jamie's mentor and friend, while stating this is another example of entitled fans pressuring PB to cave into their demands.
** The decision to cooperate with Ivy to eliminate Slater in Chapter 8. While some players choose to do so because of Slater being a tough contestant who cheats his way to the top, others choose to reject Ivy because they don't trust her for being as opportunistic as Slater. It also depends on the strategies of players and their relationships with Ivy and Slater.

** Bianca is also well liked, considered beautiful and a great ally. Many fans chose to keep her over Teagan.

** Kiana is well liked for her character design, passion for gaming, and being one of the nicest cast members of the All-Star season.

** Players felt that they barely get to know most of the new contestants in All-Stars except Vince and Slater, with the double elimination system being a major factor in that. Eden and Heath are established to have highly different personalities, only to become interchangeable with each other after Chapter 3. Kiana has little to do apart from her ShipTease with Eden or Heath. Ronan and Yvette are eliminated early in the show. Slater's character is slightly more developed, but after Chapter 9, he becomes practically interchangeable with Ivy.

** Ivy has become this over time, when her sweetness is seen as a facade to fool people. She has become increasingly hostile towards Mackenzie due to not liking her sarcastic sense of humor and blunt personality, to the point that even people who aren't fans of Mackenzie feel like Ivy is going out of her way to badmouth her. Several players grew more suspicious of her when she accused Mackenzie of stealing her and Jamie's outfits during the fashion challenge. After she was revealed as the Big Bad, even more people became split about her character. A few fans state that she was playing the game the way it was meant to be played and that she did nothing wrong. Others despise her for manipulating Jamie's emotions and seemingly having no remorse for her actions. Her behavior in All-Stars has people split between whether she wants to make amends or is up to her old tricks. It doesn't help that she accused Jamie of cheating and holding a grudge against her (even if the player had been nice to her).

* CatharsisFactor: Many players picked the premium option to expose every nasty thing Vince and Ivy/Slater have ever done in All-Stars Chapter 14, especially when both of them lose their cool in front of the cameras and the Jury and expose themselves as manipulative, lying bullies.

* NoYay: Several people had this reaction to the revelation that Heath has a crush on Kiana, believing that she is too good for him. Averted in Eden's case because of her larger fanbase owing to her more likable personality.

* TheScrappy:
** Zeke is widely despised for his unwanted advances towards Bianca, refusal to accept no for an answer, and tendency to boast about being a "hero". This skyrocketed when it was revealed that he has a girlfriend outside the house (who doesn't even know he is on the program), and still has his phone despite the fact that contestants aren't allowed to use them. [[spoiler:Almost nobody paid the Premium choice to say goodbye to him]]. He got even more hate when it was revealed that he was really an exotic dancer and all of his tales about being a firefighter were lies. Him returning in Book 3 didn't help.
** Heath is despised for his immature and inconsiderate behavior. Many players chose to eliminate him over Eden.

* WTHCostumingDepartment: Male!Jamie's premium tuxedo in Book 3 Chapter 13 has been criticized by many players for its bright colors and floral patters, which they find overly flashy and out of place for a wedding.

** The Wedding Score system in ''Wedding Edition'' is considered worse than the relationship system it replaced for being a poor attempt to emulate the Heist score system in ''VisualNovel/TheHeistMonaco''. Not only does it ultimately nullify the relationships players have built up with other contestants in the previous two books, but the first choice requiring a certain score can only be achieved by spending diamonds.

* WTHCostumeDepartment: Male!Jamie's premium tuxedo in Book 3 Chapter 13 has been criticized by many players for its bright colors and floral patters, which they find overly flashy and out of place for a wedding.

** Ryder. Some players believe that he was eliminated too early and that we didn't get to see more depth in his character. Others believe that he's ultimately meant to be a minor character as well as merely [[ItsAllAboutMe arrogant and egotistical]], which was cemented in the penultimate chapter of Season 10, when he is revealed to have recorded a song he wrote titled "Hope U Love Me (Like I Love Myself)".

* CatharsisFactor: Even though it's a premium option, the chance in All-Stars Chapter 14 to expose every nasty thing Vince and Ivy/Slater have ever done is incredibly satisfying, especially when both of them lose their cool in front of the cameras and the Jury and expose themselves as manipulative, lying bullies.

* TheWoobie: Most players feel bad for Carson because of the way Piper constantly mistreats him.

** Derek is either admired for being a GenreSavvy NiceGuy who approves of respectful behavior and knows how to play his cards properly, or derided for being a boring FlatCharacter, which isn't helped by the fact that he's OutOfFocus for most of the time. His showmance with Ivy even if you paid the Premium option to have sex with him has divided fans on whether he's pragmatic or callous.

** Ryder. Some players believe that he was eliminated too early and that we didn't get to see more depth in his character. Others believe that he is truly detestable given that the first few chapters depicted him as [[ItsAllAboutMe arrogant and egotistical]], which was cemented in the penultimate chapter of Season 10 when he is revealed to have recorded a song he wrote titled "Hope U Love Me (Like I Love Myself)".

** Eden. Despite her sizable fanbase owing to her apologizing to Jamie for coming across as a diva during her argument with Heath, her achievements outside the show, her friendliness towards others, and her beauty, there are some people who don't like her diva attitude and consider it more annoying than Heath's immaturity.

* CatharsisFactor: Even though it's a premium option, the chance in All-Stars Chapter 14 to expose every nasty thing Vince and Ivy/Slater have ever done is incredibly satisfying. Especially since both of them lose their cool in front of the cameras and the Jury and expose themselves as manipulative, lying bullies.

** Some believe that Bianca’s character was wasted in All-Stars. Despite romantic interactions with her in the first chapter, Jamie has no opportunity to be intimate with her, leading players to conclude that she's merely a tease. It doesn’t help that similar to Ivy back in Season 10, Jamie can hook up with Slater despite his antagonistic nature, and Bianca gets eliminated by Chapter 9 no matter what.

** Conversely, Ivy could've been built up to a well-written villain in her own right had Pixelberry not wasted their limited time and resources on building Mackenzie as a significant character. Many players have commented that Ivy feels like a two-dimensional characters players felt forced to hate just because of the narrative's direction.

** Zeke is widely despised for his unwanted advances towards Bianca, refusal to accept no for an answer, and tendency to boast about being a "hero". This skyrocketed when it was revealed that he has a girlfriend outside the house (who doesn't even know he is on the program), and still has his phone despite the fact that contestants aren't allowed to use them. [[spoiler:Almost nobody paid the Premium choice to say goodbye to him]]. He got even more hate when it was revealed that he was really an exotic dancer and all of his tales about being a firefighter were lies.

** Vince quickly raises the fandom's ire for his rude behavior towards fellow contestants and the crew members, up to and including referring to non-binary intern Wrenn as "him" instead of "they". He also sabotaged the mechanical bull during the rodeo date, injuring Adam in the process.

* SeasonalRot: Many consider that ''All-Stars'' is this. While the whole point is to show Carson badly managing the show, readers criticize the lack of development on the contestants who aren’t the Love Interests, and the repetitiveness of the formula (confessional, get a premium outfit, challenge, pay for a premium to hang out with a love interest).

** Fans have lamented that Mackenzie could have been a great character in her own right had Pixelberry not wasted their limited time and resources on building Ivy as a significant character. Her desire to win the season for her sister's college education was treated as a footnote rather than being used to develop her as a good rival to Jamie, as she ends up joining their side without thinking about her sister. Even her romance is underdeveloped, with her dedication and attraction to Jamie having no previous buildup in contrast to Adam's.

** Some believe that Bianca’s character was wasted in All-Stars. Despite being hinted at becoming an official love interest in the first chapter, Jamie has no opportunity to be intimate with her, leading players to conclude that she's merely a tease. It doesn’t help that Jamie can hook up with Slater despite his antagonistic nature, and Bianca gets eliminated by Chapter 9 no matter what. It has gotten to the point where a few wonder if the writers don’t like Bianca’s character, so they decide to treat her poorly.
** Players felt that they barely got to know most of the new contestants in All-Stars except Vince and Slater, with the double elimination system being a major factor in that. Eden and Heath are established to have highly different personalities, only to become interchangeable with each other after Chapter 3. Kiana has little to do apart from her ShipTease with Eden or Heath. Ronan and Yvette are eliminated early in the show. Slater's character is slightly more developed, but after Chapter 9, he becomes practically interchangeable with Ivy.

* EvilIsSexy: Bianca and Lina, who have the habit of wearing extremely plunging necklines and treating everyone horribly.

** Derek is the most controversial of the three love interests. The fact that he flirts with Ivy after rescuing her even if you paid the Premium option to have sex with him caused the fans to become divided on their opinion towards him both as a character and a love interest. [[spoiler:This sentiment was somewhat mitigated with the reveal that his romance with Ivy is just for the camera]].
** Han is also regarded as this despite his status as an EnsembleDarkhorse. He is either positive, sweet, and charming; or an arrogant narcissist with an extreme superiority complex who can't work with others.

** Even though Eden has a sizable fanbase who like her for apologizing to Jamie for coming across as a diva during her argument with Heath, her achievements outside the show, her friendliness towards others, and her beauty, there are some people who don't like her diva attitude and consider it more annoying than Heath's immaturity.

** Piper, who is a HateSink and disrespects her employees.

* NoYay: Several people had this reaction to the revelation that Heath has a crush on Kiana, believing that she is too good for him. Averted with Eden, who has a larger fanbase owing to her more likable personality.

Kiana has little to do apart from her ShipTease with Eden or Heath, while Ronan and Yvette are eliminated early in the show. Slater's character is slightly more developed, but after Chapter 9, he becomes practically interchangeable with Ivy.

** Ivy gets a similar treatment. Is she really this naïve and insecure, given that she has a history of competing in pageants, or is she just acting up for the cameras? The fact that she has won two Audience Votes despite doing little to stand out has caused many players to view her with suspicion.

** Ryder. Some players believe that he was eliminated too early and that we didn't get to see more depth of his character. Others believe that he is truly detestable given that the first few chapters he appeared in depicted him as [[ItsAllAboutMe arrogant and egotistical]], which was cemented in the penultimate chapter of Season 10 when it's revealed to have recorded a song he wrote titled "Hope U Love Me (Like I Love Myself)".

** Some believe that Bianca’s character was wasted in All-Stars. Despite being hinted at becoming an official love interest in the first chapter, Jamie has no opportunity to be intimate with her, leading players to conclude that she's merely a fling. It doesn’t help that Jamie can hook up with Slater despite his antagonistic nature, and Bianca gets eliminated by Chapter 9 no matter what. It has gotten to the point where a few wonder if the writers don’t like Bianca’s character, so they decide to treat her poorly.
** Players felt that they barely know most of the new contestants in All-Stars except Vince and Slater, which players attribute to the double eliminations system. Kiana is mainly present for her ShipTease with Eden or Heath, while Ronan and Yvette are eliminated early in the show. Even Slater is practically interchangeable with Ivy.

** Ryder. Some players believe that he was eliminated too early and that we didn't get to see more depth of his character. Others believe that he is truly detestable given that the first few chapters he appeared in depicted him as [[ItsAllAboutMe arrogant and egotistical]], as evidenced by [[spoiler:a song he wrote titled "Hope U Love Me (Like I Love Myself)" near the finale]].

** Even though Eden has a sizeable fanbase who like her for apologizing to Jamie for coming across as a diva during her argument with Heath, her achievements outside the show, her friendliness towards others, and her beauty, there are some people who don't like her diva attitude and consider it more annoying than Heath's immaturity.
