      The Colonial Assassins were a threat to millions of innocents here, and they refused to be persuaded. So Shay killed them all. This is the kind of work that the Hidden Ones/Assassins were _founded_ to do in the first place. The templars happened to be the lesser of two evils here, that's really all it was.

      The prime directive of Assassins is the protection of free will. He threw all of that away when he joined the Templars, which makes absolutely no sense. There was no hint of Shay favoring authoritarianism. He's just another brainwashed templar/Assassin with a moral ground shakier than the earthquake he caused.

The Paris Brotherhood didn't listen to Arno either and exiled him, his girl left him, but he didn't switch sides, even though he has every reason to be. After all, he was raised by a Templar. Instead he went out of his way to uncover the conspiracy with barely any help. I'm sick of people saying Shay was right just because Assassins were wrong.

    Ezio talking to Desmond sent chills down my spine when I first played it back then. When Ezio first discovered the name of Desmond, he was confused. After years of searching the library of Altair. When the Apple of Eden activated, Ezio now knew, he was talking to his descendent. Fucking love Ezio

    When Bellec said "this isn't the first time the assassin's were forced to purge their leadership..."
    He mentioned Masyaf, Monterrigioni, and The American Colonies, citing Altair, Ezio and Connor's games
    for Masyaf, he was referring to Abbas kicking Altair out after returning from assassinating Ghengis khan.
    for Monterrigioni, the assassins' Leadership was a little scattered, and Ezio was able to piece them back together
    and for the American Colonies...
    since Rogue came out during the time of AC Unity, the context for this wasn't clear.
    Achilles was responsible for getting the colonial assassins rekt by shay for not listening to him.
    and Connor helped them back up
    Edit: I forgor about Al Mualim betraying Altair by seizing control of the apple at the end of AC1 (in this video ofc). then in Revelations, the events right after Al Mualim gets rekt by Altair, the Assassins were in chaos, which Abbas and Altair were at each others' necks from then on.

    • @flamesofchaos13
      @flamesofchaos13 Рік тому +12

      Actually it should be Altair purging Abbas and his followers...Given the latter was the Tyrannical Traitor while Altair is the real Leader and Mentor and Reformer of the Creed that establishes the foundation of every Brotherhood from then on. Also Altair taking out Al Mualim the Leader of the Assassins that perverted the Creed and actually was a Templar in mindset. Altair killed as many Assassins as Shay did...Like people keep forgetting how Ruthless Altair was if a fellow Assassin faltered or betrayed the Creed or simply slighted him.
      Unless Bellec is that damn fanatical that he thinks the Bad Guys were the Heroes and the Daddy of his Order was the Bad Guy.

Also, Cleopatra didn't know that Caesar was a Magaester of the Order of the Ancients (Flavius was the Grand Magaester of the Roman Rite and the Egyptian Rite. Flavius told Bayek he was Caeser's superior in the Order of the Ancients before his died).

Cleopatra allied with the order twice, once through Caesar, once after he's been murdered by the hidden ones (which promptly made her the target of Amunet).

She still valued her friendship with Cleopatra and helped Cleopatra commit suicide to avoid Egypt from being completely destroyed by Octavian and the Order of the Ancients. Amunet and Cleopatra didn't know the true extent of the Order's Plan (to bring all the world back under Isu rule). The Order of the Ancients is Isu supremacists who infiltrated every empire across the ancient world until their fall due to the rise of Christianity and Islam.
