** One event has the player suggest that Damien should make a tortured evil goat his infernal steed. Damian agrees and says he will use a Judas goat who led hundreds of his brethren to their deaths via sniper fire in the Galapagos. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judas_goat Judas goats]] are a real thing and they were heavily used in the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Isabela extermination of goats from the Galapagos.]] He even throws in a NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer and tells the reader to check it out.

** In the ''Second Term'' DLC, Z'Gord the eldritch god's becoming Zoe the regular highschool student is filled with allusions to the problems of transgender people, such as her issues with being called Z'Gord by her still-loyal cultists. It helps that she's voiced by a non binary person.

* MemeticMutation: Good Boy. [[note]] Scott often refers to himself as a good boy in the game, which, added with the fact that he is the nicest character in the game, many people actually started calling him a good boy too [[/note]]

* ProtagonistCenteredMorality: The player characters and love interests are all almost guaranteed to be mentioned committing horrible crimes from kidnapping and torture to mass murder over the course of a playthrough, with all of it PlayedForLaughs. The only time death is taken seriously is when it affects a romanceable character, e.x. [[spoiler:Miranda's assassination or Polly's backstory]].

** Camp Counselor Flodge hasn't exactly been a hit with fans. In a franchise centered around hooking up with hot monsters, an unromanceable middle aged reptile with an UncannyValley design isn't exactly what most are here for. And unlike the charmingly ditzy [[KindheartedSimpleton Coach]] or the hilariously out of touch [[LoveToHate Miss Weaving,]] his entire shtick is being a chameleon who is bad at disguises which is comparatively unfunny to the antics the rest of the cast gets up to.

* EvilIsSexy: Vera and Damien's natural proximity to evilness and cruelty is at least part of their charm. In-universe, this to the player is also true, as the two of them grow more and more interested in you as you also showcase a propensity for mayhem and illegal business.

* ViewerSpeciesConfusion: A lot of people debate on exactly what sort of monster Oz is. Some people say he is an EldritchAbomination, a HumanoidAbomination, a LivingShadow or something else. WordOfGod however has stated that while Oz started off without a clear concept behind it, it was later decided he was the AnthropomorphicPersonification of Fear itself, the little ghostly beings that sprout for him are phobias.

** Damien is shipped with ''everyone'', including all four of the main Player Characters and the vast majority of the other love interests too, as well as some secondary characters just for good measure. It's probably quicker to list the major characters he's ''not'' regularly shipped with. (For example: there doesn't seem to be a lot of shippers for him and Vera, though that presumably only stands out because of how frequently and visibly he ''is'' shipped with Oz, Brian, Vicky, Amira, Liam, Scott, Polly, Miranda...)

** Among the main characters, Oz got the largest amount of ships, both with the romantic options, the SecretCharacter and even the other playable characters. Damien, Brian, Scott, Polly and Dahlia are his favored ships with.

** ''Monster Roadtrip'' has countless examples. After trying to join a cult, one of them states that too many people only apply to get in on the blood orgies without taking the spiritual significance into account. Another admits they just thought everyone liked to have sex with goats. To which he is corrected that only ''he'', "Brother Goat Fucker Ismael", enjoys it.

** Polly and Scott suggesting they prank a motel by calling in a bomb threat? Not funny. The player character spending 20 minutes explaining why calling in a bomb threat is not okay? Funny. Polly stating that she now regrets the last four fake bomb threats she and Scott called in? Hilarious.
