* So, almost all omnics have three glowing dots on their heads, that's the way they were built, fine. But why Zenyatta and Mondatta have nines? Is it because they're monks? Does it Mondatta could have theoretically done something similar to Zenyatta's Transcendence? And, if Zenyatta was a Shambali, why are his dots not organized the same way as Mondatta's?

** I think the specifics is that he was a ''local'' hero, as in to his home for getting rid of the dictators. He got notoriety from this which lead to fame for his music. Then there are likely people all over the world who hate big corporations in general who would latch onto a rebel leader striking back at "the man".

*What happened to London? When you visit Numbai it's a destination for travelers, without any mention made of London anywhere. In the Lore London itself is never referenced. But it should have existed/exist: In 'A Moment in Crime' Roadhog and Junkrat are shown stealing teh crown-jewels and there's teh Big ben somewhere in teh background. So what happened? Urbanization? Omnics blew it up? Overwatch is set in an alternate timeline differing from ours and London never got the name London?

** Hey, people still play ''Videogame/DonkeyKong''--a single-player game that theoretically has a maximum obtainable score--competitively, even 35 years after its release. Given that ''Starcraft II'' is a multiplayer online game, it can be patched and updated periodically to outlast even that.
