SUBSCRIBE!!! Hope everyone has a great day :) I want to mention this video only included clues that helped get closer to solving the mystery, as i value your time and quite frankly the amount of dead ends and fake clues would of lead to this video being an hour long! So if you want to dig deeper for yourselves i welcome it and will leave links in the description!

Oldroot is personally, one of my favorite minecraft themed arg’s. (next to don’t look at the moon) It’s still one of my favorite parts of arg history to this day.

[@treevee7376]

I used to obsess over Oldroot videos

[@specygamer30]

same bruh, also with mark101

[@iiastericc6192]

You need to hear about the lost alpha version , it’s probably the second best arg in my opinion.

[@beware_the_mist]

@@iiastericc6192 that’s probably my 2nd favorite too honestly

[@IncTheCredible]

The don't look to the moon apparentely wasn't an ARG, but the man actually losing his marbles (he didn't go insane, I belive he published a final document explaining that after getting help, he recuperated from that, and also a dude explained what happened to him on the internet)

[@sboy2044]

Fun fact: The creator of OldRoot also created the “DON’T FEED THE MUSE” ARG.

The fact OldRoot came from the same person that later on gave us "Don't Feed The Muse" amazes me. Congratulations to Alex Bale for making 2 AMAZING ARGs. Hopefully once DFTM is over he'll come back to this mystery and deliver more.

[@BRUCEYBOY]

I'll have to check out the other one cause in my opinion, this particular story/mystery was kinda lame. The clues were either so convoluted that only the creator would understand them, or there just isn't enough substance behind the clues for it to be a rewarding challenge.

[@geniuses___]

Watch promos and pizza time pizza if you haven't already, it's worth it they're so good

[@crowsnake3x]

He said that he wasn’t planning to add any more to Oldroot because it could already be solved without him doing anything, and constantly providing clues devalued the project.

[@Cold_Nitrogen_Ice]

who is Alex Bale?

[@thenamelesschannel1463]

There is more to this ARG that what the video showed us. As far as I know, the creator (who was later revealed to be Alex Bale) decided to abandon the project due to the convoluted story and having to keep posting clues cuz investigators couldn't solve them. This is not to say that the ARG is bad, as it did have somewhat of a story at the start. However, that story was soon lost and the ARG turned into a waiting game for the next clue. Kudos to the creator for the effort, though.

[@galacticprops]

i loved this ARG, as well as the dont look at the moon and mark101. i find that these turn minecraft into no longer a sandbox block game, but a darker horror game

[@gobeldigoo]

ah yes, dont look at the moon and mark101, some of the best minecraft ARGs, alongside oldroot.

[@juliegrine2875]

Yea mark101.... I remember him he broke his world in an attempt to fix it all I am very familiar with this story....

[@LlamissIGuess]

The best part about oldroot, is that he adds deception. Unlike most ARG’s, oldroot would trick people in ways that are hard to decipher. Which is one of my favorite things about this ARG

[@mateigabrielzaharia4842]

I feel like the reason this was never solved is because they got wrong some of the hints, bringing them on another wrong path.

[@dinogamer6462]

Nice video, you summed up the mystery well, but I think you missed something. The melon temple in the video was found on an actual Minecraft server. Several signs were found in different locations on this server, which lead to more clues

[@bitonic589]

Vigenere cipher! The Vigenère cipher is a classical encryption method that uses a series of interwoven Caesar ciphers based on a keyword. It was invented by the French cryptographer Blaise de Vigenère in the 16th century and is considered one of the strongest manual encryption techniques of its time. Here's how the Vigenère cipher works: Keyword selection: Choose a keyword, which is a word or phrase that will be used to encrypt and decrypt the message. For example, let's use the keyword "KEY". Key repetition: Repeat the keyword to match the length of the message or the part of the message you want to encrypt. If the message is longer than the keyword, repeat the keyword until it covers the entire length. In our example, if the message is "HELLO WORLD," the keyword "KEY" will be repeated as "KEYKEYKEYKE" to match the length of the message. Conversion of letters to numbers: Assign each letter of the keyword and the message a numerical value based on their position in the alphabet (A=0, B=1, C=2, and so on). In our example, "H" is 7, "E" is 4, "L" is 11, "O" is 14, "W" is 22, "R" is 17, and "D" is 3. Encryption: Add the numerical values of the corresponding letters in the message and the keyword. If the sum exceeds 25, wrap around to the beginning of the alphabet. Repeat this process for each letter. In our example, the encrypted message would be: Message: HELLO WORLD Keyword: KEYKEYKEYKE Encrypted: RSTKU NIDLP The first letter "H" is encrypted by adding 7 (H) and 10 (K) to get 17 (R). The second letter "E" is encrypted by adding 4 (E) and 4 (E) to get 8 (S), and so on. Decryption: To decrypt the message, use the same keyword and subtract the numerical values of the corresponding letters in the encrypted message from the keyword. If the result is negative, add 26 to get the correct value. Repeat this process for each letter. Using our example, the decryption process would be: Encrypted: RSTKU NIDLP Keyword: KEYKEYKEYKE Decrypted: HELLO WORLD The first letter "R" is decrypted by subtracting 10 (K) from 17 (R) to get 7 (H). The second letter "S" is decrypted by subtracting 4 (E) from 8 (S) to get 4 (E), and so on. The strength of the Vigenère cipher lies in the fact that it introduces variability and complexity by using different Caesar ciphers within the same message. However, with the advent of modern computers and sophisticated cryptographic methods, the Vigenère cipher is relatively easy to break using statistical techniques if the keyword is short or weak.

this is so instructing, I wonder what Old root means by become faceless. Who is behind this mask, what does the symbol mean? What is this new mystery? Is it something from the past? That's returning? How deep does this rabbit hole go?

[@Ponanoix]

My theory: The phrase (7:21) "He won't be able to see, hear or communicate, he'll be practically brain dead" is somehow related to the film "Johnny Got His Gun". It's about a young soldier who gets injured during WW1 and loses his sight, speech, hearing and limbs. His only way of communication was by moving the only movable part of his body, head, and hitting it against a pillow, in a Morse code pattern, begging those around him to spare him the suffering and kill him (the previously had thought he was simply brain dead). Some of you may be very familiar with this topic, because this is the film which inspired Metallica to one of their most popular songs, "One"

He gave up because no one was able to really solve it, it just became "solve puzzle to read the same words about ravens watching simulator"..it wasn't being "solved". So he gave up! The answer is in there apparently just convoluted and really tricky. He went on to create another arg that is much less over-complicated.
