- Broken Base: To fans of the Elder Scrolls, it's either everything that's great about Kirkbride's writing, or it's everything that's bad about Kirkbride's writing, with almost no in between.
- Continuity Lock-Out: If you aren't well versed in Michael Kirkbride's other works, many of the terms and concepts in C0DA are going to be difficult to grasp.
- Genius Bonus: The Un-Installment Dies irae shares its name with a Latin hymn about Judgement Day. From Secondhand Storytelling, we know that Dies irae focuses on a catastrophe that results in the death of the three "Good Daedra" of the Dunmeri religion - Azura, Boethiah, and Mephala.
- This Is Your Premise on Drugs: Take the lore-rich High Fantasy universe of the Elder Scrolls and put it in a blender with copious amounts of drugs, leading to plenty of Mind Screw imagery. In fact, Kirkbride himself admitted that he was in the midst of an 18-month alcohol-induced psychotic break when he wrote C0DA.
