History Fanfic / HalfLifeFullLifeConsequences

* DecapitatedArmy: Killing The Dark Man does not stop The Combines from defending their tower. In fact, they're able to organize an offensive to stop the humens from escaping the blast radius, and are only stopped by [[OneManArmy John Freeman]] [[HeroicSacrifice staying behind]] to stop them.

* DancePartyEnding: The DJY adaptation of Free Man, set to a StupidStatementDanceMix courtesy of furriesinablender.

* [[EvenTheSubtitlerIsStumped Even The Narrator Is Stumped]] by "normal people close."

* StupidStatementDanceMix: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCuLpdg9aIk By Furries in a Blender.]]
** The Djy's version of ''Free Man'' includes a music video of it.
** WEPON! WEPON! WEWEPON PON WEPONWEPON!

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: After the world is nice, Henry Freeman gets elected president.

* {{Engrish}}: The author says he started speaking English a short time ago in his profile. This shows a '''lot'''.

* RuleOfCool- John Freeman seems especially fond of pulling off improbable motorcycle stunts (particularly of the backflip variety), especially if it kills zombies in the process.

* {{Asspull}}: The characters have an uncanny tendency to find wepon on the ground just before entering a battle zone.

*** And also, when John Freeman is stopped by the headcrab zombie police officer, he's able to shoot him in the head with something, despite apparently not having a wepon until he gets to Ravenholdm.

* ScienceIsBad: The Combines came from "science and [[strike:outer]] outter space" to enslave humens.

*** Oddly enough, it's a tangible object, like it is in Fanfic/LightAndDarkTheAdventuresOfDarkYagami, but it's unclear what it is exactly (The Djy version has it as a Metrocop mask, while the GAZ version has it as a cybernetic eye).
*** [[spoiler:Gordon Freeman]] '(a scientist)' is actually a hero. It seems like only Combine science is bad and made you tricked, bro.

* TheCameo: In the [=Djy1991=] version of Free Man, [[spoiler:Spider-Man, the Sniper, Ronald [=McDonald=], The Dancing Banana, [[VideoGame/Left4Dead Bill, Zoey, Francis, and Louis]] and even Creator/{{BILLY MAYS}} appear for sight gags, there ought to be a list of Cameos, you know that?]]

*** Finally, also in [=Djy1991=]'s Free Man, Gordon Freechman's [[spoiler:fellow scientist coww-orker Jimm]] and [[spoiler:bad guy from the game]] from his other half-life fanfic adaptation ''FanFic/QuarterLifeHalfwayToDestruction'' are seen [[spoiler:rising to heven]] with everyone else. And [[spoiler:bad guy from the game]] is still doing his [[spoiler:isotop holding pose]].

* AscendedExtra: Whilst in the fic, John Freeman is a well established character as Gordon's brother, the use of one of the generic Resistance NPC models from HL2 to depict the Saver of Humens in the machinima makes him appear more like the random self-insert OC he actually is.

Written by the same person who wrote ''FanFic/HaloHalosInSpace'', and is, naturally, quite similar. Compare ''Fanfic/DoomRepercussionsOfEvil''. And Creator/PeterChimaera's other fic, ''FanFic/QuarterLifeHalfwayToDestruction''. Although it may well be [[FollowTheLeader a cash in]] on ''Full Life Consequences'', it is amazing in that he only wrote it after [[Wiki/{{Uncyclopedia}} Uncycyclopedia]], an online encyclopedia like [[Wiki/{{Wikipedia}} Wikiped]] said he was writing it and decided 'Yeh, ok' and the BigBad's evil plot is to destroy Dallas.

Other machinmas and dramatic readings of the various chapters exist, but [[SturgeonsLaw few of them have the notability of the above authors.]]

** Also, [[spoiler:[[Machinima/TheGModIdiotBox Dr. Hax]] near the end of the story. He isn't the final boss because only his head is big, and his eyes are intact.]]

* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: Lots of backflips happen throughout the fic.

* [[HorrifyingTheHorror Horrifying the Horror]]: When John and Henry Freeman team up, the Combines get 'scarred' and run back to the 'hug tower'.

* [[HorrifyingTheHorror]]: When John and Henry Freeman team up, the Combines get 'scarred' and run back to the 'hug tower'.

* {{Corpsing}}: blind51de can be heard giggling a bit after saying "he didn't have weapon" and then struggling to compose himself when he says "The countryside were nice." One can hardly blame him.

* AdultFear: The only fear John Freeman ever feels is for the life of his son. Or, as the fic, puts it, "He didnt want nothing to happen to Henry Freeman because Henry Freeman was John Freeman saw Combines start to run like monsters to humens and Henry Freeman and saw Henry Freeman and humens run like brave to Combines."

* DarthVaderClone: How DJY handles The Dark Man/[[spoiler:Gordon Freeman]] in ''Free Man''; he wears an all-black version of his armor, a Combine gas mask, is John Freeman's [[spoiler:brother]], and after being defeated realizes the folly of his actions and encourages John Freeman to save the humens.

What began as an innocent {{fanfiction}} titled ''VideoGame/HalfLife: Full Life Consequences'' (by an allegedly nine-year-old kid with the handle squirrelking) was turned into [[SoBadItsGood something great]] as soon as a Website/{{YTMND}} user found it. In mockery, [[https://johnfreemanjohnfreemanjohnfreeman.ytmnd.com/ he did a dramatic reading of the story]], and a legend was born.

* DiabolusExMachina: After killing the final boss, the "next boss" appears out of nowhere and step on Gordon Freeman.

* DiabolusExNihilo:: The Next Boss in the first series.

** Arguably The Combines as well, due to noone knowing why they came.

* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: After John Freeman kills the BigBad of the second chapter, Gordon Freeman comes back to life as a zombie goast because "[he] got there slow".
** This may also be a CallBack to the original, where Gordon Freeman jokingly says to get there faster next time. Perhaps it's a FunnyAneurysmMoment in-universe.

These videos make up the most popular adaptation of the ''Full Life Consequences'' saga, each having been featured on numerous gaming websites. They combine dramatic readings performed by other users and music from the album ''Production Music from [[WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow Ren & Stimpy]]'', creating a distinct SoundtrackDissonance. The first video combined the low audio quality of the narration and the upbeat music to create an old-time radio drama feel. Subsequent videos strayed from this design for more straightforward presentation. Several line readings from it have been adapted into not one, but two surprisingly awesome and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCuLpdg9aIk well made]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Po_v4jXZaD8 Drum and Bass]] [[note]]The download link provided in the second video is down due to Renard's web address change. Fortunately, the track and others can still be downloaded in the album "The Best! The Best!" at their {{Bandcamp}} [[http://lapfoxtrax.com/ here.]] (It's linked at the top, under the button "32 FREE OLD ALBUMS"). [[/note]] tracks by a professional DJ known as [[Creator/LapfoxTrax Renard]] (under the alias "Furries in a Blender"), neither of which would sound out of place at a rave.

The first half of the saga tells the story of Gordon Freeman's brother, John Freeman, [[JumpedAtTheCall who rushes from his job]] to rescue Gordon Freeman in Ravenhol[[strike:d]]m. The second half, entitled "Hero Beggining [[YouMakeMeSic [sic]]]", takes place some time later, during which the Combine have succeeded in conquering the [[strike:human]] humen race. Henry Freeman takes it upon himself to continue the legacy and lead the resistance against the Combines.

* YouMakeMeSic: Appears to be compulsory in any visual adaptation of fan fiction like this.

* StuffedIntoTheFridge
-->'''The Dark Man:''' [[spoiler:Henry Freeman's Mom]] is shot in head.

* TropeOverdosed: Compare the length of the four fics combined to the length of this page.

* AliensAndMonsters: And final bosses and next bosses and Combines. Also the TropeNamer.

One fan wrote a fic called, [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5235619/1/QuarterLife_Origin_of_Doom "Quarter Life: Origin of Doom,"]] which ties the Quarter Life and Full Life series together. It too, got the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G04fz2JxsM machinima treatment.]]

* PragmaticAdaptation: Two ways, the Djy machinima makes the whole thing comedic, given it's narm and misspelling, good for gags. The Gaz version of Free Man manages to pull of the drama and make certain scenes work.(but it's still pretty funny!)

* MythologyGag: In Djy's adaptation of ''Free Man'', [[spoiler:after the world's peaceful]], Grigori appears next to a bear when they say the people and animals lived in peace, there's a reason that Grigori is described as an animal in the Adaptation: [[spoiler:It was a ThrowItIn gag in the original ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'', where Grigori was placed as an animal rather than an ally, to be fair, [[CrazyAwesome it wasn't that far from the truth]]]].
