The Sombra ARG Explained

[@_superintendent]

god i miss the hype around sombra in 2016. Some people hated the arg for being too long. I wish i could go back in time to 2016, change nothing, but relive it.

[@kevingame3198]

But at the time I wasn’t into overwatch as of today I was hyped for next Gran turismo game sport and need for speed game to be arrived in 2017

[@YeahAlright1983]

"ONLY WE PC USERS HAVE THE ARG SPRAY AS A REWARD" Should we tell him?

[@BrowntownBashers]

Ahhhh, dang. Everything I read made a note of saying it was only available on PC. I don't own it on console so I couldn't check. I knew I had to make at least one big mistake in the video.

[@YeahAlright1983]

Meh no big deal good video overall!

[@amdust6448]

dang how has this video not blown up this is gold

[@spforlyfe]

Because this video came out like 2 years after Sombra ARG

[@SkylightCiel]

I never knew about the Sky Code thing! All these years I've had that emote and didn't know what it was about lol

[@polygollie]

I'm reminiscing right now about this ARG. This is what got me into the medium as a kid and I still think it is one of the best that came about, which makes me really sad about Overwatch and where it is along with Blizzard as a company, I really think this section of time with the ARG was the peak of what Overwatch was. This was such a creative, engaging and sincerely heartfelt endeavor to get the community excited about a new character. I wish we could've gotten more story out of this game, I would've loved a Sombra focused series.

[@skittykay]

this deserves more views. I keep coming back to this video it makes me laugh so hard while also doing a really good wrap up of how this mess went. Those two months of waiting were agonizing.

[@mateberes8346]

this was explained very well and it made me laugh. LAUGH. A. LOT. thank you : )

[@MichaelLoda]

I remember this well. I spent days listening to people on ARG discord. It was so hype. I’ll never forget the hype around the skybox code, people shouting “IT’S A SHOTCODE!”. And then there was some SSTV signals, compasses in Irvine on Google maps, people went crazy. Big nostalgia. Thanks for this video. It’s funny though how we still know nothing about this whole puzzle, who made it and everything

[@ilikestarwars4438]

I’m amazed that people took the time to decode all this

[@adequatepipe8610]

I know I'm late to the party, but that was an amazing trail and your video explanation was fantastic, helpful, and a lot of fun to listen to!

[@AlienoidNovace]

As someone who had absolutely no clue what the whole ARG deal was before half an hour ago, I can safely say that this video is tremendous. The humour is brilliant and everything is explained in a helpful manner and it really took me through a journey. I have a beard now. How did I get on top of this mountain? I feel like learning martial arts.

[@suewoo7261]

Thank you for solving this case detective Browntown

[@reakarvissoul-hunter8051]

8:20, WHY DID THIS MAKE ME JUMP 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

[@O.RION.G]

15:46 I think if you listen closely at the end of the static you hear "reaper-" in reapers voice. Just what i heard

[@Catzzye]

This is extremely high effort and reminded me of the days of the ARG. That fucker % tho, I remember it was stuck on a certain % for a long time and when it finally moved I literally screamed in a public space. I was extremely excited haha. Thank you for the awesome video!!

[@polygollie]

In retrospect I do wonder if this was paused because they needed it to line up with the patch date and it wasn't going to be ready by their initial time 😅

[@genevievewalsh2007]

I would never have understood this without this video

[@TheHelpMaster]

This should get way more views, great Vid!

[@cesarsalinas-barajas3817]

Underrated video

[@am-bush679]

OH MY GOD!!! He’s alive! Man I love your videos so much but I had given up hope on you ever posting a video again.

[@johnm2185]

This is a really good video and needs so much more attention. Good work!

Was just going through this for nostalgia since OW1 is closing, didn’t expect a legitimately hilarious yet informative video. As the guy from 3 years ago said, why don’t you have more subs?? You get hacked or something ??????

[@GlassBlockElevator]

This video is honestly amazing

[@Rainy_R]

this was a great video! the humor was really funny to me, and he quality of this video was really nice too…! great job man :)

Report blizzard for the arg and the boo bee

[@Jillionaire_]

Ok sooo this is vid is a year old so I'm sure this has been said a million times but goddamn how do you only have 360 subs??? The production/ editing on this is fucking INCREDIBLE

[@penguinproductions7014]

During the vid my tablet crashed. Spoopy

beautiful video dunno why it has so few ratings

[@Guywhotypestoolongcomments]

This is something that crazy Easter eggs in video games arg how do people figure stuff out like there’s one we’re like for summer it was a glitchy screen and people thought it was a barcode, and they found out it was a barcode who thought of that

Still watching this in 2022 ^^

Cool! I wasn't trying to say that Zagreus' experience was representative of everyone who participated in the ARG. I just thought Zagreus' playtime was entertaining enough to be worth pointing out.
