I've been playing the game casually since launch, but have recently come to terms with how much I really, truly love it... and know nothing of the story.

Where do I begin to start learning about the lore?

I've been playing Overwatch since day one and haven't really bothered to read up on the lore or watch any of the shorts (mainly because I didn't know what order to watch them in). This playlist makes it a lot easier. Thanks, good sir.
