There are some things that don't typically get called out on it despite using it merely because it just ''works''. Such as say, several [[RPG Elements]] and control schemes in general.
 
You'll notice that sometimes this trope is invoked not ''only'' by [[Fandom Rivalry|rival fans]] and [[Hate Dumb|trolly haters]], but people who actually aren't fans of the genre, even so much as [[Hatedom|hating it in its entirety]]. You'll notice that when people are typically not fans of a genre or series, similar to its cousin [[Its the Same So It Sucks]]. The two almost go hand-in-hand, this way, since a non-fan would not really notice how many subtle differences since, after all, they see it and aren't looking for that stuff, that is, [[BlindComplaining BashingAbout Shows You Don't Watch|if they actually see the work they're invoking this trope, on]]. Sometimes people are actually calling out things based upon ''meta-concepts'' of the genre.
 
This is the justification behind [[Sequelphobic|Sequelphobia]]. Compare [[Older Than They Think]]. Compare and sometimes contrast with [[Seinfeld Is Unfunny]] when the original suffers due to amount (and sometimes the quality) of similar works released later. Not to be confused with [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]], where a sequel or an official adaptation changes an aspect of an original work for better or worse. Also not to be confused with [[It's the Same, Now It Sucks]], the polar opposite.
