History YMMV / Noob

* ShippingGoggles: InUniverse, Gaea. To her credit, Omega Zell ''was'' watching Fantöm from behind a bush when she first put them on.

* MST3KMantra: Almost obligatory when following only one media, due to the complementarity of versions relying on playing around with AdaptationExplanationExtrication and subverting WhatHappenedToTheMouse.

* EarWorm: "La complainte de nolife", the end credits song.
--> Hier soir comme d'habitude, j'ai très peu dormi\\
C'matin comme d'habitude mon clavier AZERTY\\
Est tatoué sur mon front, ma joue et mon menton\\
Mon perso immobile m'attend depuis longtemps...[[note]] \\
Yesterday evening as usual, I've slept very little\\
This morning as usual my AZERTY keyboard\\
Is tattooed on my forehead, my cheek and my chin\\
My immobile character has been waiting for me for a long time...[[/note]]

* CatharsisFactor: InUniverse. Implied to be what brings Golgotha into the game.

* CrackIsCheaper: Gaea is on scholarship, gets extra revenues from the ads on her very popular blog, sells back some of her contest prizes, is presumably sharing rent with Golgotha, has a nice collection of geeky trinkets and manga, yet remains in PerpetualPoverty.

* Tabris: the BigBad or only a CrazySurvivalist for whom the threatening parties happen to be every single living sentient native of Olydri?

* AltItis: InUniverse. All elements of the DoublePlay entry from the main page are actually mild cases of it. In one of the books, Arthéon is stated to have another avatar in each of the game's classes because of his background interest (but they're all guildless and stuck somewhere between levels 1 and 10 because of that), making him the only known possible case of the full-blown condition. Saphir also implied that the reroll that she modified to look like Gaea in the webseries was one among several.

* BetterOnDVD: The ScheduleSlip the webseries had a handful of times during its run made it hard to follow for some fans that discovered it while it was still in production and hence watched the episodes as they came out.

* MoralEventHorizon: Gaea is treated as if she crossed it in Season 4 when [[spoiler: after losing her affiliation to the Empire because of failed quests and bad deeds, she asks to be invited into a group composed of a couple of Gaea worshippers' guild members under the (implied) pretext of a higher probability of finishing a quest by their side, then kills Sparadrap, Ivy and Golgotha, making the Coalition her new affiliation in the process]]. Two episodes later, Ivy stated that the act was unforgivable.
** Another interpretation exists for that event but is Jossed in the fourth novel: [[spoiler: Gaea really was a The Mole for the Coalition all along, and she lost her affiliation to the Empire on purpose to go back to her actual side. That interpretation stems from her affirmative answer when Gordan asks her if she's "coming home": that could either be her dropping the mask now that her former guildmates can't hear her or her playing the masquerade that ensures the Gaea worshippers' guild's faithfulness more seriously now that she's joined them. A couple of other facts were in favor of that interpretation: Golgotha saying that her cursor would "revert to its original color" if she finished a quest (the change to red was probably due to her being the guest of a Coalition group) and that Gaea was never seen choosing her faction when she created her avatar.]]

* NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VT1J65KHX8E An Uwe Boll video that went viral at the time it was first published]] has him rant about a "movie about retarded wizards in the forest" that was given 600,000 dollars during a crowdfunding. Many fans consider it is quite likely (or even has to be) ''Film/NoobLeConseilDesTroisFactions'' and its sequels; [[http://fr.ulule.com/noob-le-film/ 600,000 is the sum it actually got in ''euros'' rounded down to the lower 100,000]]. If it is indeed the movie mentioned, it would be the most exposure the ''Noob'' movies have gotten in the anglophone sphere so far.

* ShippingGoggles: InUniverse, Gaea. To her credit, Omega Zell ''was'' watching Fantöm from behind a bush wen she first put them on.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Fabien Fournier himself admitted things happened a little fast in Season 3 and having it covered in the first half of the third book did indeed help make things more clear. However, the plotline involving [[spoiler: Fantöm being in the same guild as the person who blackmailed him in Season 2, an ex-colleague whose mails he wasn't answering in Season 1 and a former borderline loony fan who is now capable of speaking to him normally]] only got its surface scratched. For instance, [[spoiler:his only conversations with guild members were them getting him to join, the introduction of the episode in which he was supervising their progression in a dungeon, him announcing he was going to start solo playing again once levels 91 to 100 were unlocked for the guild and him announcing he was going back to the Justice guild. The second occurrence did have Omega Zell ask Fantöm if Gaea threatened him after finding out about a plan change that seemed strange to him (but was actually Arthéon-approved), but the conversation quickly changed to Sparadrap's warrior being part of the party. There was also the group screencap in the last depicted occurrence]]. However, the potential the situation held still feels under-exploited, even considering that the fact it existed [[spoiler:made Fantöm vouch for Omega Zell when he showed up on Justice guild's doorstep]].

* Omega Zell : MistakenForGay HeroWorshipper or locked in a TransparentCloset ?
** Corollary : Is Omega Zell/Fantöm just a CrackPairing born from Gaea's YaoiFangirl mind or the only OfficialCouple until the [[spoiler:Master Zen/Nazetrîme]] pairing was established in Season 3?
** Possible middle ground : Omega Zell is affected by [[StupidSexyFlanders Stupid Sexy Fantöm]].
** WordOfGod has stated that the "I ban any love or friendly relationship with woman so I can focus on the game" he gave Saphir was meant to establish that he's not homosexual. Nothing was said about him being [[NoBisexuals bisexual]] or in the closet, however.
* Kary: ObliviousToLove, SkewedPriorities or pretending all along (with or without bad intentions) ?
* Sparadrap (and eventually others) : Not taking the game seriously enough or taking the right distance from it?

* Tabris : the BigBad or only a CrazySurvivalist for whom the threatening parties happen to be every single living sentient native of Olydri ?

* AltItis : InUniverse. All elements of the DoublePlay entry from the main page are actually mild cases of it. In one of the books, Arthéon is stated to have another avatar in each of the game's classes because of his background interest (but they're all guildless and stuck somewhere between levels 1 and 10 because of that), making him the only known possible case of the full-blown condition. Saphir also implied that the reroll that she modified to look like Gaea in the webseries was one among several.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: A certain scene in Season 4 finale may feel like that, especially for those who don't know who all the [[TheCameo guest stars]] that were crammed into it are.

* CanonFodder: The story left Fantöm considering he has a debt towards every single member of the Noob guild. It has only been repayed to Omega Zell and possibly Arthéon so far. The fourth novel explictly says that Gaea's is still pending and that she has no intention of letting it go to waste.

** Very popular yet irregular : Heimdäl, Mist and Nazetrîme[[spoiler:'s real character]].
** Little more than a OneSceneWonder : Jack Céparou, Papy PK, Mezariel.

** The first mention of the Roxxor guild in the webseries is a shopkeeper mentioning that their tabards are on sale (in the for a cheaper price than normal sense). It only turns out to be the Coalition number one guild in Season 2 premiere.
** Gaea once claimed to be Judge Dead's daughter while trying to swindle someone. In the later part of the first cylcle, the human being behind Judge Dead turns out to be around the same age as her, if not slightly younger.

** As one can guess, many expected ''Film/NoobLeConseilDesTroisFactions'' to have more of whatever they liked in the webseries. Since it could'nt have more of everything, there were bound to be some diasappointed people.
* LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt: Gaea and Sparadrap getting kicked out by Judge Dead in early Season 2 ? Of course they were going come back one way or another. As for Master Zen, avatar banning has become a slap on the wrist by Season 3.

* MoralEventHorizon: Gaea is treated as if she crossed it in Season 4 when [[spoiler: after loosing her affiliation to the Empire because of failed quests and bad deeds, she asks to be invited in group composed of a couple of Gaea worshipper's guild members under the (implied) pretext of a higher probability to finish a quest by their side, then kills Sparadrap, Ivy and Golgotha, making the Coalition her new affiliation in the process]]. Two episodes later, Ivy stated that the act was unforgivable.
** Another interpretation exists for that event but is Jossed in the fourth novel : [[spoiler: Gaea really was a The Mole for the Coalition all along, and she lost her affiliation to the Empire on purpose to go back to her actual side. That interpretation stems from her affirmative answer when Gordan asks her if she's "coming home" : that could either be her dropping the mask now that her former guildmates can't hear her or her palying the masquerade that ensures the Gaea worshipper's guild's faithfulness more seriously now that she's joined them. A couple of other facts were in favor of that interpretation : Golgotha saying that her cursor would "revert to its orginal color" if she finished a quest (the change to red was probably due to her being the guest of a Coalition group) and that Gaea was never seen choosing her faction when she created her avatar.]]

** Some people think the webseries is just a French remake of ''WebVideo/TheGuild'' (that is a year older, but doesn't even have DeepImmersionGaming before its fourth season finale) or ''[[Franchise/DotHack .hack]]''.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Fabien Fournier himself admitted things happened a little fast in Season 3 and having it covered in the first half of the third book did indeed help make things more clear. However, the plotline involoving [[spoiler: Fantöm being in the same guild as the person who blackmailed him in Season 2, an ex-colleague whose mails he wasn't answering in Season 1 and a former borderline loony fan who is now capable of speaking to him normally]] only got its surface scratched. For instance, [[spoiler:his only conversations with guild members were them getting him to join, the introduction of the episode during which he was supervinsing their progressinon in a dungeon, him announcing he was going to start solo playing again once levels 91 to 100 were unlocked for the guild and him announcing he was going back to the Justice guild. The second occurrence did have Omega Zell ask Fantöm if Gaea threatened him after finding out about a plan change that seemed strange to him (but was actually Arthéon-approved), but the conversation quickly changed to Sparadrap's warrior being part of the party.

** Pironess in TheStinger of Season 5 Episode 9. She's trying to warn whoever will listen that the world is in great danger, but the only response she gets is Meuhmeuh making fun of the WelcomeToCorneria aspect of her speach. After that, he tries to kill her for apparently ignoring him.
