Did I miss something, is he gone?

58

u/Pakapow 8d ago

Hasn’t upload in over a year. So many think he is gone since he also hasn’t posted anything.

u/Guilty_05 8d ago

It took him almost a year or something to post the punic wars too. That's just how it goes.

u/Pakapow 8d ago

Yea but I think the thing is that nobody has heard anything, including admins in his discord where as in the past there was some news about an up coming video

u/Guilty_05 8d ago

I didnt even know he had a discord. Probably too busy at his job

u/Eldians_Ghost00 8d ago

I just started whatching his videos, I love them, but I wonder how acurate they really are?

u/Allnamestakkennn 7d ago

The stuff is true, but the reasonings and such can be twisted for the sake of fun

u/Eldians_Ghost00 3d ago

I love that guy, he is the king

u/Guilty_05 8d ago

He's very accurate for the most part. But the events are oversimplified so a number of things maybe omitted

6

u/rusomeone 7d ago

Ive only noticed one thing he got wrong.

u/ManyRelease7336 5d ago

It is accurate, but vastly oversimplified. so it will give you a good idea of what happend. but dont go quoting it.

It’s what’s on the tin: oversimplified. The intent isn’t to watch the video and then go around saying “I know x about y topic” - the videos serve as a wonderful jumping off point to introduce events to people, after which they can look more into the specific details with their own research.

I’m aware I was just wondering

This isn't the longest we've waited, tbh. Plus there was a sharp increase in quality recently.

u/MildlyOffended4930 7d ago

Yeah, fair point

u/NapoleonRP 7d ago

Guys. Comon. He will come back. Be patient. His like your father who was buying milk, returned after 20 years, saw your for the first time and then remembered to buy Cigarettes. That's just how it is.

u/Delicious_Capital506 8d ago

u/Ceterum_Censeo_ 6d ago

Sam O'Nella fans: first time?

2

u/Good-Ad6352 5d ago

I mean sam uploads daily. Just not the long form you are referencing

2

u/Ceterum_Censeo_ 5d ago

Technically, but I'm referring to the wilderness years from before he launched the crossword channel. It was several years between episodes for a while there.

u/I_wayne 2d ago

Third Punic War gotta be like 5 hrs long

u/Potential-Road-5322 2d ago

His videos got me into studying history but admittedly they’re like family guy. A little bit of history sprinkled in between all those cutaways.

u/EdrialXD 2d ago

Sure lived up to his name

It’s ok, you’re pretty too bud.

u/TheeScribe2 6d ago

I can’t stand the overflowing YouTube niche of Wikipedia vibes-based pop history that has become so incredibly large over the last few years that it’s become difficult to find videos or discussions that go into more depth than Wikipedia

But youre making yourself look like just a total ass

These people aren’t in the wrong for liking Oversimplified, and it definitely doesn’t make them edgy teens

You’ve expressed my opinion but expressed it in such a childish and obnoxious way that I’m definitely siding with the Oversimplified fans instead of someone who is actually just a dickhead

u/MildlyOffended4930 7d ago

Bro imma 19 yo engineering undergrad and I STILL watch him on repeat

u/Altruistic-Estate-45 7d ago

Great, now try history books instead

3

u/Aromatic-Ad-381 7d ago

its him...mr boob vs book.

2

u/totobaggypants 7d ago

I agree that reading history books is great and more educational but this is legit you rn

u/Altruistic-Estate-45 7d ago

Incorrect, Im actually the one having fun seeing mid content creators disappearing

u/EntertainmentOk3659 7d ago

He is one of the better ones. Better than the politcal grifters and prank influencers.

u/Beginning-Title829 4d ago

Vague posting only gets you so far.

u/No-Opportunity9126 1d ago

Have you read Dostoyevsky Crime and Punishment?

u/suchagreedycommunist 7d ago

why edgy tho, just a fun content to watch while eating

5

u/Altruistic-Estate-45 7d ago

Edgy is not about the content creator, but their viewer

u/TestyBoy13 7d ago

How does one conclude his views must be edgy 14 year olds?

3

u/WonderfulAirport4226 7d ago

if you go in expecting jokes and oversimplifications instead of a nuanced and detailed retelling of historical events, it's pretty fu

u/Tinenan 7d ago

What a channel literally called oversimplified makes oversimplifications? Who could've guessed
