Unfortunately, this effect doesn't work for those who watch the video on mobile phones, as instead of cutting the video and showing more video suggestions like they would on a computer, it instead just stops the video, leaving the viewer with the freeze frame stuck where it is.

** The picture of Milo Asher's corpse that the Observer leaks onto Twitter looks less like a suicide and more like Milo had just fallen asleep. The photo itself is also has a terribly photoshopped shadow to make it look like he's lying on the floor, when he really isn't.
** An audible version of this trope occurs in The Order. It's pretty easy to hear that the "Observer's" laughter that plays as Noah is running from the aforementioned Order is ''clearly'' a woman laughing, especially once Pitfall was released.
** The Live Stream Incident. Averted with the ''video'' mind you, but the livestream itself had a lot of errors. It was only recorded for 30 seconds, and while INTERCEPTION was broadcasted, only the audio from the video was present.
** The stacks of cash in Mr. Scars' briefcase aren't the typical green that money is made of, but solid white instead. [[LampshadeHanging Noah himself suspects that the bills are counterfeit]].
** DEATHTRAPEXODUS has a scene where a nervous Kevin Haas is shown looking around a forest while Firebrand tells Noah [[spoiler: he must kill Kevin in order to save him from the Observer's grasp.]] Due to a rendering error however, the text that says this is ''incredibly'' hard to see, leaving it frequently overlooked for first viewers.

WordOfGod states that he discovered the error too late in production and didn't have time to fix it, so he just kept it as is.
** In Pitfall, the scenes where Noah supposedly keeps looping back to the observation tower are less than stellar due to the very noticeable jump cuts ruining the effect.
** It's quite obvious that the news reporters in Facade aren't actually real, as the dialogue for the anchor and field reporter doesn't come anywhere close to matching up to the mouth movements of the respective people.
** A few episodes in the Fortunes arc have sections where once can tell that Noah's dialogue was recorded in post, due to a slight room reverb following what he's saying, which shouldn't be possible in an outdoor setting.

* {{Flanderization}}: Various aspects of Noah's personality start being emphasized as the series goes along.
** In Season 1, Noah shows that in spite of his Determinator status, he's quite reluctant to pursue answers about Milo's death and fight against Slender Man. By the time the Fortunes arc comes around, his hesitation to keep going has snowballed into an utter refusal to make any progress at all, out of fear of the Collective retaliating.
** Also in the beginning of the series, Noah's swearing is quite tame in contrast to the [[SirSwearsALot filthy mouth]] he would gain as the series progresses.
** One could say that the Observer goes through this as well. In season 1, the Observer's erratic anger and insanity only showed whenever Firebrand disrupted his private broadcast during INTERCEPTION, and occasionally appeared while he's mocking Noah in his videos. Besides that, the Observer has a very [[TheStoic stoic]] personality as he terrorizes Noah. In season 2 though, the Observer drops any stoicism he previously had, in favor of a more [[TheHyena hyena-like]] personality. [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools Not that it's any less scary]].
** The usage of meaningful backmasked music (or "Hellgaze" as Adam and the fanbase call it) was initially something that only played during Collective videos that were in line with what Firebrand or the Observer were communicating to Noah. From Bridge to Nowhere onwards, Hellgaze is bound to appear in practically every video due to Noah being in different dimensions, ranging from normal songs to TV themes, sound effects, video game music, and even the Observer’s mocking in Facade.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: Northern Trip Footage was criticized as being a very dull crossover with ''WebVideo/EverymanHYBRID'', since the most that Noah and the HYBRIDS did was discuss their separate findings and how they tangentially related to each other, with only one Slender Man sighting appearing midway through the video. This was rectified with the multi-episode crossover with ''WebVideo/DarkHarvest'', where not only are the connections to both parties more clear, but the group has a run-in with the Order and Slender Man that was chock full of terrors. Later on, when EMH and and TT crossed over again in a two-parter, Noah gets to interact directly with HABIT and learn about Severance in the first half, and explore the Candleverse in the second half, thus proving the Iteration Theory to be true for EMH fans.

** In Severance, a bleeding man (later revealed to be [[WebVideo/MLAnderson0 Michael Andersen]]) randomly appears in HABIT's bathroom, coughing profusely as Noah looks on. Aside from Noah asking who it was and HABIT dismissing him, this bleeding man is never mentioned again. Apparently this scene was supposed to foreshadow a video on the MLA channel where HABIT tortures Michael in a bathtub, but Dylan Sindelar never uploaded it, causing the scene to become this.

** One could say that the Observer goes through this as well. In season 1, the Observer's erratic anger and insanity only showed whenever Firebrand disrupted his private broadcast during INTERCEPTION, and occasionally appeared while he's mocking Noah in his videos. Besides that, the Observer has a very [[TheStoic stoic]] personality as he terrorizes Noah. In season 2 though, the Observer drops any stoicism he previously had, in favor of a more [[TheHyena hyena-like]] personality. [[TropesAreNotBad Not that it's any less scary]].

** The usage of meaningful backmasked music (or "Hellgaze" as Adam and the fanbase call it) was initially something that only played during Collective videos that were in line with what Firebrand or the Observer were communicating to Noah. From Bridge to Nowhere onwards, Hellgaze is bound to appear in practically every video due to Noah being in different dimensions, ranging from normal songs to TV themes, sound effects, video game music, and even the Observer’s mocking in Facade.

** Ever since glimpsing him in Severance, Slenderverse fans started tripping over themselves guessing who the bleeding man in HABIT's bathroom was. Examples of those guesses include Lee from WebVideo/WhisperedFaith, Chris from WebVideo/DarkHarvest, a future version of Noah, and Michael Andersen of WebVideo/MLAndersen0. A few years after the video was released, WordOfGod indirectly confirmed that the man in the bathroom was indeed Michael.
** The identity of the roommate that Sisyphus Noah mentions is also ripe for speculation, especially since the only hint we've gotten is that he had been in a similar situation to Noah's. The two biggest suggestions fans have come up with include Kevin Haas (due to Firebrand mentioning that "the dark times" would bring him) and Robert Asher (due to being confirmed to still be alive somehow).

** Speaking of bad dubs, the voice actors' dialogue for the news reporters in "Facade" glaringly contrasts with the mouth movements of the actual people shown onscreen. The fact that the main anchor has a remarkably young voice that's supposedly coming out of a 40-50 something year old man's body just makes this worse.
