I loved how in the end Torres was not a hateful or spiteful man. He died respecting his killer, even agreeing to disagree.
So rare in this series' depiction of Templars. Sure, they can believe they are the good guys, they can be sad or disappointed when dying, but this here is still somehow different. I love it.
Kenway saga did a good job with Templars. The Borgias were cartoonishly evil and the Kenway games did a great job making the Templars seem more three-dimensional.
Yes he was I suppose a fanatic. He truly believed in the cause, and he came from a family of Templars so no wonder.
Torres is one of those that you can call an antagonist but not quite a villain. When you get to Kingston, Torres is clearly not so bad at all next to Laurens Prins and he hates slavery. He’s probably the least villainous Templar outside of Rogue or some of the allies from Unity, even glad to see Edward evolve even as his enemy. Robert de Sablé was crazy dangerous, Rodrigo Borgia ruined Ezio’s life and others to get what he wanted, Cesare was completely insane, and Charles Lee was completely ruthless but Torres seemed like what the Templars really wanted to be. Of course we know the Observatory would be abused no matter what he wanted.
@@unc54 Agreed, I've always said this, this is why forever and always ac1, 3, 4 rogue and 5 will be my favourites as much as I do love the ezio trilogy as well, I always sympathised with the templates and though these games carried a much weightier interesting story by showing the merits and failings of both sides. The newer ac games have been utter drivel in comparison in my opinion from syndicate onwards. Bayes story maybe being a slight exception though he definately could have done with another game to flesh out and make his story lore meaningful just like lost assassins since ezio. Ubishites unwillingness to make true sequels in favour or yearly reskins gas cut too many interesting charachters amd story arch short.
Even though Torres was the final antagonist I can’t help but think of Roberts as the main villain of the game
I honestly loved Torres's voice acting, superb 10/10.
T A H I T I DUTCH

And looks like Tony Jay
It s beacuse he has L U M B A G O
"A body enslaved will inspire the mind to revolt, but enslave a man's mind, and his body will follow"
I've always liked Torres. When he tells Prins his disapproval of slavery, I was convinced he wasn't a really bad guy. He was a man with convictions.
That was a pretty underrated conversation they had there. It shows that most Templars are not profit oriented when they would take over the controll. Its really only their ideology.
@@Portulak007 Both Torres and Du Casse share a distaste for slavery: In Du Casse's case is because he tried it once, but he felt uneasy in the profession, due to his lack of cruelty and detachment required for the position.
@@jorgebersabe293 i also liked the "you wear your convictions well" remark. Showing he's not unable to understand the other sides perspective
God. Their conversation about protestant and Catholic really interesting tho
And he helped build up Havana’s defenses to protects its people and its trade from pirates, began tobacco production which helped boost Cuba’s economic power and was in charge of different charities like building a hospital in Havana
I found that I couldn’t hate these guys.
Torres was just too well spoken (even if I oppose the Templar vision) and El Tiburon was just an imposing figure.
I know right , during the sequence in kingston he earned my respect about his thoughts against slavery. during the last mission of ac4 i have no hate or blood boiling towards torres , unlike in brotherhood cesare was a idiot in a metal armor
@@juliusd3th3r4t7 true Torres was amazing templer and my favorite grand master and Torres has so much respect slavery and he doesn’t want to kill Edward but I like has grand master and like rodrigo and Cesare are psychopath and stupid templers and Torres has Not psychopath and he has amazing grand master and governor
As much as I dislike Templars, I couldn't help but like Torres. Mainly because he was the only one who didn't mock Edward for being of lower class.
This was the templar's golden era
I despise every Templars and members of the order of ancients but I can’t hate on Elise de la Sierra and Torres for some reason, they both seem to be not as bad to called them villains in the series
Torres,Elise,Haytham, and Shay are great Templar character
it's best templar
In assassin creed games all templer are evil villain but in black flag Torres has not evil or villain but he is good grand master and Torres he has respect about slavery and the are some templer are good like haytham and shay and others
i like when he's talking in english and suddenly he says "su más humilde servidor Laureno de Torres y Ayala"
That Thanos pic fits the comment perfectly
The dialogues in this game are just bloody genuis.
Just see the word play... each and every character looks so intellectual and like a Man of Vision.
Plus the setting, the atmosphere.
Edward Kenway is the Best Assassin ever.
This game is a hidden gem.
As an assassin? Debatable but the game hes in? Hard to debate against
@@theastroguy7417Best AC protagonist
1:55 one of my favorite part of the game. To get full synchronization you have to pickpocket all 3 of them. I found it funny how he's pretending to be some one else and still pickpockets them.
That's the moment
That means edward did this cannonically
I remember laughing my head off at this. I had just robbed probably the three richest men in the whole city of Havana.
Tiburon, despite having no lines, ended up having the most wholesome or outright sad memory corridor sequence. Truly my favorite boss of the game despite the cheesy way of shooting him to death.
Yes el tiburon is my favorite boss all assissan games and he is my favorite templer and he is one strongest templer and el tiburon powers is he is superhuman strength and he is immortal armor that you shoot in head four or five he doesn’t die or if you frown 10 knife in head he doesn’t die and another mission is that torres and el tiburon going meet rogers and if you shoot el tiburon with legendary pistols one bullet can kill all assissan character but not el tiburon that if you shoot if 4 bullet in armor he doesn’t die and another mission is that Edward has to stolle is map and another aboject and if attack el tiburon kill Edward one second with axe one hit kill and if averbody character in assassin games attacks el tiburon kill all them with axe one hit kill this way el tiburon is my favorite templer and brute
@@deathstarstarkiller But! He is not actually a templar. He was just following Torres, as any soldier would.
@@yuuyakizami2133 he is templer and bodyguard of torres made el tiburon templer and bodyguard and give spanish army in mission that Edward was kill decoy torres and el tiburon has entirely Spanish army and captain and like assassin creed revolution Ahmet grand master made shahkulu templer bro and el tiburon is right man torres and bodyguard of torres and templer bro
@@deathstarstarkiller read the wiki. He is not actually a templar. He was only doing as Torres ordered like any other soldier would
@@yuuyakizami2133 ok i have read wiki el tiburon is not templer ok he is bodyguard of torres and right man of torres and torres give Spanish army captain and entire city Havanna give el tiburon because to kill Edward bro
He is one of my favorite Templar leaders, he and haytham were the kind of Templar leaders that really didn’t make it like the templars were the bad guys
Torres yes, Haythams methods were to reckless and gruesome though, he often killed when there was no reason to
haythem kills people because he thinks the are evil and haythem methods are evil and Torres methods good and Torres wants observatory because to free slavery and peace in world and end corrupted world and end evil King this way I love Torres more then all grand master bro
@@deathstarstarkiller Haytham saw too much conflict, when you play as him in the beginning he is a better man, when you meet him later as Connor he is incredibly gruesome and reckless. He changed for the worst because of the war he was fighting in, he was, basically, an elite soldier on the field, and all the fighting, killing, all the regrets regarding his decisions about his wife and son (Quite sure he regretted what he did with her, that’s why he never cane back), changed him. Empathy is non existent, Haytham became a tool of war, he adapted to that purpose. Torres is not a fighter, he is a negotiator. He has his huge bodyguard watching his back, and avoids conflict. I don’t know wether or not he was fighting in a war in his younger years, if he suffered mental trauma as much as Haytham did. Yes, Torres is by miles better than Haytham, no question about it. But Haytham got hammered into shape by the war he was fighting in, Torres has good intentions because he still believes in the good side of humanity. Haytham saw the worst of humanity, and acts accordingly. That’s what war does, to the best men out there
@@theburningman5047True But haythem has trained and raised by templer how killed his father because that haythem becomes so evil like kill civilian people and tried to kill his own son he never goes to his wife bro and he cares lee and templer more then his wife and own son bro and torres is no fighter and he is so intelligent and he so smarte then rodrigo and all character assassin creed games and he found Edward is imposter and he makes plans of observatory and capture the sage and he has lots templer and he found observatory and made docey and give Havana and cuba and all Spanish army to his bodyguard el tiburon and goes to observatory four man o war he is grand master of West Indias and spani and he is governor cuba and governor Florida and leader Spanish ships and he is better then evil haythem and all grand master
@@deathstarstarkillerim having strokes trying to comprehend your replies......
Poor Torres, completely overshadowed by Roberts as an antagonist.
Two good different antagonists:
One is mysterious, reckless, charismatic and slick
The other one is open, patient, good at heart and smart
@@BurBurGerHamCotCotCybercotleta Pure fax my favourite antagonist assassin creed verse is torres and Roberts is good antagonist better then torres
Torres and El Tiburón definitely draw parallels to Manuel Palaiologos and Shahkulu from AC Revelations in terms of character, at least for me. One (Torres/Manuel) is an elderly man, who seeks out power and knowledge so that they may do what is right in their perspective. The other one ( El Tiburón /Shahkulu) is a strong bodyguard with cool-looking armour and little to no dialogue in game, but with memorable memory corridor scenes (Edward thanks El Tiburón for turning him from a soldier to a scoundrel, Shahkulu survives Ezio's air assassination and starts choking him in the memory corridor) Just my take anyways.
Roman Sculpture, Its vice versa, from scoundrel, to soldier.
You're right. I never realized
Torres wasn't a bad guy, he just wanted better for the world. The moment when he was walking with prins and was talking about opposing slavery made me realize that he's a good guy in heart but his methods are not correct
Laureano Torres was more of a misguided idealist, rather than an outright villain.
He had the right ideas but used the wrong way to achieve the means
@@summonerbraddysg51 Plus, even though he was an abolitionist he described Edward as a 'Filthy peasant', so he wasn't the kind of person who should have so much power.
This is my favourite Assassin Creed antagonist, he didn't act like a villain and despite being a huge threat, he was respectful and mature and somewhat polite (without the wanting Kenway and the assassins dead thing) through out the game and where I was gonna expect to hate him like every other Templar in the series, I didn't, maybe there's some other antagonist who is like him but better idk
Torres is a misguided idealist: He wanted to do the right thing, but he used the wrong methods.
@@jorgebersabe293 Depending on who you ask misguided is not the appropriate term. His goal was peace but it was through a surveillance state. There are several places today that still support that idea.
Just wait until you play Assassin's Creed 1
Haytham
@@trueblue6201 Right idea: Peace. Wrong method: Surveillance state.
Laureano Torres looked much like my grandfather in this game god rest his soul.
He must have been a great grandpa to you
@@highsenbergg8894 He was! He enjoyed watching the games I played, especially the more cinematic and story interactive types like AC and RDR2.
Honestly, for an upper class person in the time, he wasn’t that much of a jerk. He didn’t like slavery and he wished his friends good fortune at many moments.
He also didn't judge persons by their richness or origins, he just wanted they believe in the templar cause, nothing more.
I actually like that Edward unlike his other assassination respects and comforts Tiburon, even closing his eyes and wishing him into he after life.
A good “villain” is someone you could see yourself as or at least agreeing with with slightly different circumstances or experiences on your part. This is a good depiction of that.
Edit: Spelling
Torres is my favorite grandmaster all time and best governor all time Torres has money golde army Spanish and army British and templer and he have one of strongest brute of all time in history el tiburon and Torres is my favorite antagonist all time
I would fuck it up the moment I met the templars:
"Oh, Mr Walpole"
"Who?"
Did you know you could pickpocket the Templars at this point 2:53
+The DutchMan
That's one of the optional objectives. And it's funny. :)
Especially since they don't even notice it
I pick pocketed El Tíburon and he only got like 15 reales on him lolllll...
@@pedrojuan8050 Torres really was a miser
@@pedrojuan8050 i couldn't do it x)
'to guide all wayward minds to safe and sober thought'
Edward later echoes this line when torres dies once he has learned from the creed
Why did Edward confess? It wasn't him, and the alive guards could have confirmed it.
Thats very true. Seems like he broke his eggs preemptively
Edward could've killed everyone there pretty easily.
Hamza Khaliq then why didn't he do it? I've saw you several times saying that in other videos, I think you're oversetimating Edward. He's OP when we play him, but in the story he's not that strong.
@@surgen5101 yeah he gets pushed back several times easily in black beards death cutscene
@@H.K.5 no he couldn't have
I wish they would make a comic of young Laureano Torres meeting the sage Thomism Kavege.
William Bacon they have but.........................................he turns out Old and shows what he did of screen
El tribioun hated edward but edward respected El tribioun
Like Spongebob and Squidward
Like stitch and gantu
Kenway was very respectful to elTiburón he was a good mega brute
Torres is so awesome 😎
6:29 never noticed the assassin during my playthrough. a nice detail of what's about to go down.
I noticed it too in my playthrough
I can always count on you for these videos!
@Jack T Ripper
It's a shame that the games have become too complex for me to continue but thank you for watching!
What!?
@@artemshevtsov6062
Origins was the last game that I did videos for and it took me 4 months to complete. The new style of game is too expansive and now with Odyssey, there are dialogue choices and different outcomes. I can't keep doing videos the way I have been but at least I inspired others to start making character-centered videos. It's been an interesting adventure!
Oh...
This is a very nice cut.
While this is of fiction but one can’t help but realize the realism in the level of intellect speech and vision many figures in the past possessed its like the level of education and wit declines to this day
I think the Kenway saga did such a good job with leveling the morality of Assassins and Templars and humanizing both in our eyes. I never truly felt like i was doing a major good in AC3 or AC4, just that I was doing as I was told and it made me feel almost used to be honest lol, all these people were good people but with different views on how good should be ascertained.
i almost like torres, but i definitely respect him.
Basically this part is like Rogues except it's Templar.
This game was just the best! Lol
Was? More like is*
Arianz Gamer haha well Far Cry Primal and Red Dead Redemption I also love as much as this one :) not going to argue with you though as this game is legendary
@@ryanandrews321 This game is amazing, but nothing brat ac2
When I first played the game, I thought Torres said "creamy" at 1:28
It’s kind of weird of all the assassins creed I played this was my favorite and I would always play this
Same Mate
Yes black flage Is my favorite game ever
18:50 torres talking about caroline not being well wasnt a threat is he telling edward that she have an illness
I really liked Torres. He was like Haytham in a way. They knew their convictions and acted on them diligently. And they respected the differing views of their adversaries.
Something that I never understood, when Kenway kills El Tiburon, Kenway says that he humbled him once and that he helped made him a soldier out of a scoundrel? The whole speech never made any sense to me. Did I miss a cutscene or something? Thanks in advance.
@TuckerJ82
In the game, there is just the one bit where Edward goes to break Roberts out of jail and gets the crap beaten out of him by El Tiburón, which leads to Edward meeting Adéwalé and capturing the Jackdaw.
There was originally going to be a fight between Kenway and El Tiburon at the end of sequence 2 which Kenway would lose. This was cut though Kenway's dialogue was not. So as already commented I suppose it can only refer to when El Tiburon sucker punched Kenway when Kenway tried to break Roberts out.
8:55 When your girl breaks up with you, so you return to the boys like nothing happened
of one problem of the kenway sage templar goal of black flag was the observatory use of people bloods.
I wonder how Ezio would've done against El Tiburion, considering Edward couldn't beat him in hand to hand combat. I think Ezio would've crushed him without using any guns.
Ezio will use throwing knives! 🔪
@@takeurpills6024 Throwing knives won't work. I used a throwing knife on him as Edward and it didn't even hurt him.
@@takeurpills6024 It would still be useless: El Tiburon's armor is very resistant.
Ezio is probably, behind Bayek and Connor, one of the most physically adept and competitively skilled assassins in the series. He could beat down at least 3 of El Tiberon at a time with some minor difficulty.
James Buck I think Edward because he can kill entire armies with no difficulty
How did they discover Edward wasn't Duncan Walpole again?
Edward wasn't exactly the best of actors.
Killing all the guard's and trying to free the asassin
basic videos, Roberts was not an Assassin.
They caught him trying to break out Roberts and surrounded by dead bodies 8:07
NOPE! When Edward was talking to Bonnet the guards heard him what he said about the Observatory so they knew..
I wouldn't have killed him. Yes, he knew where the Observatory was, but he can't do anything with it, since without the Skull the place fills itself with deadly traps that are near to impossible to avoid and with it, the place can be sealed off and will not open again unless they find another Sage.
I've always loved Torres, I think he is quite overlooked when compared to Haytham or Cesare or Al Mualim. I don't think he's outstanding from a narrative perspective but he does play his role in the story and whoever played him did such an incredible job bringing him to life. I love how well mannered, well spoken he is. His intelligence and fascination with the world around him, he is very critical. Edward comments on this fascination in the black flag book and I think that fascination rubbed off on him. Edward for most of his journey is very ignorant (Du Casse says so himself) and I do wonder if a bit of Edward learning to be less brash and more open minded to the assassins ironically came from Torres.
still cant belive edward was once a templer lol
technically, he wasn't loyal to either side. just a pirate lol
Edward has pirate but he becomes templer but the templer betrayed Edward and returned to pirates and left pirates and join assassin
I read the novel of black flag and let's say that Govenor Torres did not at all enjoy the parts from such like Captain Kenway torture threating by the cut your lips off and feed them to you when Captain Kenway was in Jamaica jail just to let you guys know ow Kenway should have watch what he said to him on that fort shouldn't he because when your the hostage next time to that person you might get the thing you said to them when threating them right guys
Novel is really interesting n each chapter is interesting especially after completing this game as I can picture whole scene
I always like so much torres because he has respect in slavery and assissan and he wants to free slavery and he wants observatory to free slavery and end corrupted wrold and end evil corrupted kings and he has not evil guy or bad guy he was good guy but I hate Edward so much that killed him i want Edward to be with governor torres and templers and kill the assassin and kings and let torres to rule this wrold but I hate Ubisoft for kill templers and torres is always my favorite grand master and templer and governor and I want torres to be more games
Laureano looks like Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, president of Portugal
8:14
So who is the council Torres speaks of vaguely?
Templar order throughout continent but my guess council he mentions are Spanish Templar
@@LexiaKazu Or his order or his member of Spanish templer because he is grand master of spanish temple oder bro his council is talking about isu thing to control everything
All these Freemason wannabes saying Torres ain’t that bad. Ya sus.
I just wanted to say
