overwatch has a very diverse but mysterious lore in addition to this
there are many parts of the history of the game that also remain mysterious as
well but through various means we have discovered a wide variety of Easter eggs
facts and lore pieces that have surprised us all today we're going to be
going over eight facts about overwatch that you probably don't know about my
name is Nathan and this is Blizzard guides, starting us off at number eight
overwatch used to not be overwatch a long time ago a few World of Warcraft
players on the Wow forums discovered job listings for an unnamed Blizzard project
this is secrecy sparked widespread discussion as Blizzard hadn't released a
new IP in several years this quick spawn of discussion led Blizzard to announce a
new MMO under the name of project Titan this project was very ambitious and
Blizzard teased this for years to come but ultimately it was scrapped as the
MMO was too ambitious however a small team from project Titan was given the
task of salvaging components from project Titan this team decided on a
first person shooter inspired by games like Team Fortress 2 and Call of Duty
providing us with the game we loved and known as overwatch overwatch as a matter
of fact was a core faction in the tiny universe so there is a lot of unwritten
and unused lore out there that might end up in the game someday the original
pitch of the game included a very prominent cast image with the hero
selection screen actually being a key component in selling the game to
Activision who originally funded the game the diversity in the hero roster
was something that was unheard of at the time and was very interesting to the
people funding the project at number seven there is a and nubes god
AI in the comic admission statement there
is a God AI referred to as Anubis in the comic the AI begins to take over very
zomick's attempting to kill the helix security team led by Farah as well as
the engineering team tasked with shutting down and protecting the city
from the AI the AI supposedly has the power to launch full-scale military
attacks in addition to wreaking havoc on the country's security systems sadly
enough the amna Canova are well aware of the power of said AI and the control by
the AI drive some of the omnis to even commit suicide in addition to this the
damage that the aamna kid led fara to make a decision that she didn't want to
make the man or the mission ultimately fara is forced to abandon her captain
and becomes a protector and leader of her team saving two soldiers lives this
chilling comic really paints the picture of the aamna crisis and many other
atrocities from the wars and the game's lore while we don't see much of the law
in the game it is always interesting to see the darker side of such a cheery
game at number 6 there's a sad story behind one of the astronauts spacesuits
and Allegiant control center on one side of the map there are three space suits
with the one in the middle being adorned with flowers at the base as well as the
name hong gyu written in red chinese characters the space suit is left in
memory of a young Chinese man who unfortunately passed on the day before
the game's release he was very excited about the game as the last conversation
with his friends detail his excitement for the game above the space suit is a
message that reads heroes never die also in the read Chinese characters in
similar vein the first point of attack on I can wall there is a tribute to a
very influential community member internet Hulk the four quadrants stand
for Dennis how ELCA and internet Hulk Blizzard leaves many tributes for very
prominent members in the community and I very much admire and respect what
Blizzard is doing to honor community members
at number five there's a somewhat well-known summer aargh
summers existence has been teased in many parts of the game since the release
and even before sombras release in the origins video for Ana throughout some of
the transitions in the video there were hexadecimal keys that popped up giving
the cryptic message when translated from Spanish she who has the information
holds the power Sombra there are other messages in videos which led to a series
of corrupted screenshots and a post on the forums which when decoded to ASCII
sugar skulls revealing a link to a video with clues that led to a website that
had another cryptic message mentioning Bastion when viewing an in-game terminal
that mentioned Sombra as bastian bastian emitted a series of beeps and Boop's
that when translated from morse code led players to a website with a phone
number that when called revealed yet more codes the call had a woman listing
a series of numbers in spanish that revealed links on the original website
giving a link to a web site known as valle skaia industries dot-com this side
the arg into the overwatch universe providing us with a tie-in to the
overwatch short infiltration and ultimately revealing a very interesting
side to the hero now available Sombra at number 4 some quick facts Hanzo and
Genji used to actually be the same hero but due to the wide range of abilities
that they wanted to implement he was ultimately split up into the two
separate heroes that we have now with the working titles bow ninja and sword
ninja Genji originally only had a sword and could stick to walls do fist
actually is in fact a title not actually the name of the hero and it's held by
the current gauntlets owner there have been other doom fists in the past and
there are more to come Jessie McCurry is actually named after a
blizzard employee and lastly during the play test for Hanzo because art had not
yet been designed for honza's ultimate a series of spheres were used in his place
the design of the spheres led a lot of the play testers to call Honda's
ultimate the caterpillar something that I wish we could definitely bring back
and number three there's a giant sea omniknight attacks Korea
apparently divas rise to fame was being a competitive Starcraft player while
this was eventually retconned by Michael Chiu the story still remains the same in
overwatch is Korea after the aamna crisis every so often AJ
sialic would rise and attack Korea before the Korean government used to
send drones to attack the monster however the monster learned to shut down
comms and thus the government had to employ elite pilots to fly mecca's and
defend their country against the monster the government turned to the likes of
diva and many other professional gamers because of their high APM and reaction
times as well as their general knowledge of situations similar to this albeit
virtual and number two a lot of the environmental objects scattered through
the map actually contain names of Blizzard employees or references to the
Blizzard Universe on Kings row the brewery on the streets phase is actually
the lead VFX artists last name Albury and sorry if I mispronounced that
throughout I can Walt Anubis and Hollywood you can find heads of
characters too from Starcraft and Diablo as well as pinatas resembling Diablo on
tirado on watch point and gibralta the names of many environment artists can be
seen on the first point defenses lockers and suitcases
there's a Murloc in the Hani mourra as well as various references to other
games in the arcade you can even play hearthstone in the spawns of the game
and also there's a plethora of references in Blizzard world but that
one's pretty fairly obvious and lastly at number one
Bastion used to be able to shoot through walls fashion has actually undergone so
many different iterations of his ultimate he could shoot through walls he
also had a drone that could be remotely detonated and at one point he could even
fly using his ultimate but ultimately the Blizzard team was unsatisfied with
this and they went back to the original design and lore of the character to
discover the tank ultimate that we now have for fashion Bastion is also
surprisingly enough also voiced by somebody the heroes many voice lines are
actually taken from recordings made in their studio and then modulated to give
us the sounds that we now have recording bastions voice lines is more like
playing an instrument rather than actually recording voices according to
the overwatch team fashion also poses many difficulties for the overwatch team
when it comes to sound design as he cannot tell others that his ultimate is
ready nor give warnings due to the lack of well voice overall bastions undergone
many other changes even in the beta as he used to have a personal shield and
only 180 degrees of rotation in freedom Bastion overall is a very interesting
character with a lot of change around him however he still
is annoying to play against anyway because enjoyed this video let me know
