In the end, Charles and Haytham respected Connor’s abilities. Haytham told Connor he was proud of his noble qualities. Charles proceeded to ask Connor why he persists despite their efforts to end the Assassins. I like how Charles offers Connor a drink. They drank like war buddies before ending it all.

There is plenty of right answers to this. Whether it be that Connor wanted revenge against what the templars did to his own life, or was he just that much of a noble soul filled with justice that he wanted to rid the world of evil however he could and felt that nobody else was doing a damn thing about it, everyone else’s guesses are as good if not better than mine.
@@Kiner-ug1mw haytham was proud for his own selfish reasons. He had a great deal of respect for Connor and actually admired him for what he believed in.

Introvert ≠ Badly written - His mother's death - The expulsion of his people - Trying to combine his own agenda with the brotherhood's one - Killing his best friend - Being betrayed by the ones who promissed a better future in the continent - Killing one of his father figure and watching the other die - Trying to find a new home in a place that seemed so alien at first I understand how Ezio and Edward are so likable... But how a lot of people have seen these same cutscenes and think that Connor has no personality or no development?
Altair and Ezio are like Aang while Connor is like Korra. A lot of Korra haters hate her character because she is the very opposite of the previous Avatar, Aang. They cite "bad development, poor judgements, immature actions" but it all boils down to them comparing a spiritually matured and enlightened Aang to the hothead underdog Korra. Similarly, people will still dislike Connor because they're still under the spell Altair and Ezio gave. Plus, AC3 was the first game who dropped the "Assassin" from Assassins Creed. Connor, as an Assassin, felt more like a henchman or a hired blade by Washington.
This game is probably the most underrated in all AC franchise. I never understood why it was banished by the fans. AC3 has unique and heart breaking story.
only idiots would underreate AC3 judging the fact this is the LAST Assassin creed that is acknowledged by any real AC fan. Desmond's death in this sequel marked the end of AC saga. All sequels later are not worth mentioning including ac4 regardless of the boat sailings.
@༒ᏕᎯᏕᏬᏦᎬくん༒ of you dislike a masterpiece, u are an idiot, sorry m8. Idiot can say for himself "i am not idiot", but that doesnt refrain him of being one nevertheless.
Connor respresents so much more , he represents conviction, faith, and courage. Even when all the world turned their back on him, he still believed in change, a better future, and in hope. Right to the last minute, he is a great character. The credit belongs to the man in arena.
We know that Achilles have passed away at the end of the game but what's funny is that after the epilogue when you go the the dice icon and play a game, Achilles came back from the dead to play with connor😂
The moment that conor see's the grave, and realizes he was named after Achilles' son just hits me so hard every time. The relationship those 2 have is so underrated. I just don't understand why so many hate this game
Connor is seen as a less likeable character because he is a man of few words but the dude is literally traumatized. He doesn’t have an agenda or a motive other than avenging his village because of what he had seen and been through. There aren’t many games where they reflect the emotions of the main character in regards to the violence they are exposed to but the violence he experienced as a young boy is what drove him to keep it from happening to anyone ever again. And no matter how many times he was told he would die, or what he would do was impossible, he kept going. In the end there was no celebration for his return. Nobody there to pat him on the back. But he didn’t need that. He just needed to hold on long enough to take that hatchet out of the post and that was good enough for him. He was doing it for the young child he once was just as much as for his village. If that is not good character design I don’t know what is
Aye. However, most of Connor's character can be seen when playing through the Homestead missions, where he is relaxed, laid-back and loyal to friends and strangers. Shows that if he's not your main target, you'll get along with him quite well.
His quest for vengeance evolved and molded with his sense of purpose for ridding the world of evil. He knew that he alone could never accomplish such a task, only that he could do something about the evil that had accosted him and that was more than enough. In the end, he knew he was nothing more than a speck in the universe, and even though his job was done, he hoped that his legend could inspire others to do the same. He was conceived in contrast via haytham (of all people) and a woman who belonged to a tribe that never asked to be a part of the revolution that was forced upon them, and he didn’t even need to choose sides. He knew what was right and what was wrong. I only hope that we get to find out that in his later years he managed to find solace after everything he had been through.
Bittersweet. I played this game when I was 11 back in 2012 and I never truly saw or understood it’s ending. After replaying it at age 21, I know now what I played. Truly one of the most remarkable stories in any game.
@@dadwithmilk3740 not really Ezio is actually responsible for the brotherhood reaching the new world Ezio sent assassin's to establish a guild in the west indies which was the guild Connors grandfather Edward was a member of as well as Achilles the man who trained Connor Achilles would then go on to create the Colonial or American Brotherhood of assassin's and connor would then go to restore it after every member of it was dead and connor was the last one but Altair was actually the man who saved the order as a whole after the death and corruption of the order it was on the brink of collapse until Altair took over and the order was reborn and set free as said by Ezio
@@alexmason2659You bend literally ANYTHING, only that Ezio can take credit. Edward is the one who had most credit for Assassins in the colonies. No one else. Your precious Ezio is forgotten ghost at this point in time
Actually, the most emotional thing for me was Connor and Charles sharing their last moment together. None of them says a word, they share a drink, and then Connor kills the dude.
The colonial era was one of the few times I understood the templars. Haytham was raised under both ideologies so you see why it becomes a gray and gray morality in the truest sense. But you also see the fatal flaw in both of their ideologies. Unity gets a lot of flack but at least initially they understood that they weren’t so different. Prejudice on both sides will always get in the way.
Templar's ideology is more grounded to reality but more morally evil while Assasin's ideology is morally good but not based on reality .They are both flawed in their own way.
Connor was hated by fans because he wasn't as likable as Ezio, which is a valid point but it's a little unfair. I don't think this game was trying to live up to all of the Assassin's Creed games before it. It was trying to be something different for the franchise. It knows that it can't match up to the legacy of the older games but nonetheless still be a great game. Connor is a very well written character because you at least got to understand his journey and what led him to this path of being a more serious character with a tragic life. His life wasn't easy. He had to witness and bare all of the pain over and over again and he would still continue to fight on despite it. Yes, Ezio went through pain as well, but for Connor it was way worse. How does one choose to be charaismatic and charming and loveable with the circumstances and situations faced like Connor? I am not trying to defend Connor as the best character ever because obviously he's got nothing on Ezio. But I wouldn't go as far as to say that this was the worst character ever just because he wasn't as likeable as Ezio. That was its own legacy. AC3 wasn't trying to replicate that but rather push on for a different point of view with a more brutal story that was personal for this character. Heavily underrated honestly. Not perfect but heavily underrated.
16:45 I have that phrase as the lockscreen on my phone. It's my reminder of why I must be the best, to push myself to create the life I want, & not let anything stop me.
brooo conner was barely able to stand after that cannon attack,but after killing haytham and saying goodbye father,he was like,F that im walking the boss way 😆
Lord, watching this brings back my childhood.🥺🥺 Oh how I loved Connor Kenway. No doubt Altair and Ezio are finest of all but Connor - is just unique and love❤
My opinion is AC 3 was kinda short of story. Kinda strange ending of the story. But its unique it self. Feel sorry for Desmon and playin now Black Flag there is a hole without him :(
anyone who tried to make this mission without any fail, knows it takes like 20 tries *fun fact, In android version Connor killed british guards but he had to watch out cuz patriots used suits too, Patriots won't attack you ofc and they will ignore you but Real soldiers when they see you You need to repeat mission, When you kill all enemies, They lets you enter special place, Where patriots shoots few soldiers and Connor runs to Kenway to kill him with tomahawk*
Because he genuinely cared about Haytham. For all his flaws and all, he was one loyal son of a bitch. But Charles knows that he can't afford looking weak.
I feel bad for Connor. His story was really sad about how he fought so much for his people but he found out he fought for the wrong side and killed the wrong side. Especially his own father. Who was proud of him in a way like he had mentioned.
A year late, but he got married and had a son and daughter I believe who had the same eagle vision that Bayek has. It seems he lived a relatively peaceful life after the revolution and rebuilding the colonial brotherhood from scratch.
Charles was a British soldier and a patriot one too. It's obvious that climbing is another thing they teach in the Army. That and being Haytham's second in command, so it's obvious that Charles picked a few tricks along the way.
I hate that I came into this thinking I was gonna play the badass Heytham Kenway and go on assassinations in cool places but I ended up being subjected to hours and hours of assassin propaganda and a boring protag who is being manipulated by his elders

Introvert ≠ Badly written
- His mother's death
- The expulsion of his people
- Trying to combine his own agenda with the brotherhood's one
- Killing his best friend
- Being betrayed by the ones who promissed a better future in the continent
- Killing one of his father figure and watching the other die
- Trying to find a new home in a place that seemed so alien at first
I understand how Ezio and Edward are so likable... But how a lot of people have seen these same cutscenes and think that Connor has no personality or no development?
Nostalgia driving crazy, nothing more. Connor it's in the top best Assasins, without doubt.
Altair and Ezio are like Aang while Connor is like Korra. A lot of Korra haters hate her character because she is the very opposite of the previous Avatar, Aang. They cite "bad development, poor judgements, immature actions" but it all boils down to them comparing a spiritually matured and enlightened Aang to the hothead underdog Korra.

Another reason is Connor preceeded by Ezio and succeeded by his grandfather Edward. Both very likeable and extroverted characters.
@Manong Pony I didn't think about it that way with Mass Effect but you make a great point. ACIII and Andromeda share a similar situation.
This game was ahead of it's time, however if it would have come out a few years later people would have been much more excited by it I'm sure.

Das Ende war so geil wie sie noch einen getrunken haben wie richtige wikinger
What happened to Connor did he ever meet back up with the rest of his tribe or did he just fade into obscurity
His tribe got chased out
Actually You can read his story on the comic, he rebuild the creed, have childrens and one of them born with eagle vision
Irl the Iriqious Natives (Connor's tribe) got chased out into Canada for British protection
A year late, but he got married and had a son and daughter I believe who had the same eagle vision that Bayek has. It seems he lived a relatively peaceful life after the revolution and rebuilding the colonial brotherhood from scratch.
We should've gotten a story cross over between Connor and Shay.
I'm surprised to see no one talking about Lee casually parkouring like an assassin in the chase. Maybe I'm forgeting something, but still.
Charles was a British soldier and a patriot one too. It's obvious that climbing is another thing they teach in the Army. That and being Haytham's second in command, so it's obvious that Charles picked a few tricks along the way.
Every npc can parkour in these games. Even grandma.

I dont get why haythem would let go of connors arm and allow him to stab him with the hidden blade
He wanted to be killed. Guess it was too hard to kill his own son.
in the book adaptation that goes more in depth into haythams perspective, he cannot bring himself to kill him.
he wouldn’t kill his own son
He basically let Connor kill him
