      That was actually the original plan. Where there are six Assassins that Desmond goes into... Then, because of the bleeding effect, he becomes the combined training and experience of them all... And therefore the greatest Assassin. Then, something about how he would no longer need the Animus and could effectively "time travel," to where you'd be able to play out the games back in history... As Desmond.

    The whole thing with Desmond was they were setting him up to be this insanely powerful assassin with the combined skills of all his ancestors. That means Connor, Haytham, and Edward Kenway, it means Ezio, and it means Altair.
    All of their combat skills transferred to Desmond through the Animus’ bleeding effect would’ve made him the most lethal assassin to have ever existed.

      @voratittchunharuckchot9711 Год назад +1

      I like Ezio's lines the most. It shows his character, humility, and wisdom. In my opinion, his character suits the Assassins' way more than any other assassin in the franchise, even more than Altair's.
      - (To Machiavelli about writing a book on Ezio) "If you do, make it short."
      - "We think we are unique because we think none has faced the same kind of situation."
      AC: Revelations also has many amazing lines
      - "I have seen enough for one life..."
      - "Who are we to have been so blessed to share our stories like this?"
      - "My story is one of many thousands, and the world will not suffer if it ends too soon." (This one is my favorite)
      All these lines are proof of why he is a legendary assassin. He killed countless men throughout his life and he knows that his life is also just as insignificant in the grand scheme of things, just like everyone else. While all his life he is seeking purpose, he is wise enough to let go of his ego.
      Ezio didn’t see himself as any more special than other people in the world. It's this humility that made his story the best in the franchise and made his final moment carry so much meaning.

    Anyone get really bad nostalgia because there is so many questions left, like about the sage in ac4 and who you played as in abstergo industries and about the precursor race, and at the end of ac syndacite u see the templars take the shroud to try to bring Juno to life, and they keep switching up the modern person you play as and dont fully explain what is happening

      Juno was killed off in the comics, for some stupid reason.
      And in AC4 we just play as an employee of Abstergo Industries to collect data for a film (or so we are told).

      From rough memory to
      AC 4 sage - In a way a reincarnation of Juno’s lover when he died in an experiment and Juno did some hokus pokus on him
      Abstergo employ is supposed to be YOU the player, guess its for immersion
      Precursors race kinda of humans who tried saving earth from catastrophe and failed
      The shroud is taken by templars, but its actually a third faction not allied with assassins or templars who’s sole purpose is bringing back Juno
      As for switching up modern person, up to a point it was desmond or his DNA so its all his ancestry, but eventually other bloodlines start getting explored by different descendants until that rule gets tossed out the window and anyone can relive the memories of whoever they want because the animus is that advanced now

      He knew about Connors existence before that, remember Charles Lee, Hickey and Church assaulted him in the forest and Charles saw his own boss in his face even at 8 years old I think. After witnessing the village burn down, Charles etc went back to Haytham and would have informed him about the boy and the likeness and Haytham would have known then that his love affair with Ziio produced a child. At the point I don’t know if they knew that the boy they saw had survived but possibly found out about Ziio, Connor also thought his fathers order had done the burning down , but sadly that was the first President of the United States to be, Charles Washington.

      Eivor is a decendant of nobody. Although apparently having parents, we learn that she is in fact the Isu Odin, reincarnated after 80000 years.

    So, this video came out after the release of Odyssey, and I don't know if Desmond being descended from any of Bayek, Aya, Alexios, or Kassandra has been confirmed or denied... or if it's even relevant. Even if he was descended from any of them, the events of those games happened so long ago it would probably be difficult to tell where they fit into any modern-day Assassin's family trees (my guess is most assassins and templars are descended from at least one of them due to the exponential generational growth over the course of ~2-3 thousand years). Now that that's out of the way...
    However, Arno and the Frye twins are more recent. I would say it's unlikely that the Fryes are closely related to Desmond (unless it's closely related to his mother) because I would doubt Connor or his descendants would've gone back to England during the Victorian Era.
    And then there's Arno. Now, I don't have anything to back this up, and maybe someone else can inform me if this has been confirmed or denied. But my theory is that Arno is a descendant of Ezio. The Arno River is the one that flows through Florence after all. And we can't ignore the close ties the French royalty had with the Medici. It's not too far-fetched that the Medici and the Auditorres would be family friends for generations and that some of them stuck together even when they left Florence.
    Let's return to the idea of the exponential generational growth thing. There's about 1,500 years between the events of AC2 and Origins. If you assume that every generation is separated by 25-50 years (meaning 30 to 60 generations in those 1,500 years), then Ezio has between 1 billion to 1 quintillion (2 parents for every generation you go back, i.e. 2 to the power of 30 or 60) ancestors that were alive during the time in which Origins took place. When you think of it this way, it's possible for the every major character in every Assassin's Creed game that takes place after AC2 to be descended from all three of Bayek, Aya, and Alexios/Kassandra. You can actually assume this about your own family tree as well. Highly recommend Real Life Lore's video Why You're Related to Everybody Else.

    You know who can still show up in future Assassin’s Creed games? Desmond’s mum. Despite hearing her voice in The Lost Archive, we never saw her. Bill had a different voice in Brotherhood too
    I’m still curious about the rest of Connor’s life. Who was the woman he hooked up with, how did he die? Revelations showed us the end of Altaïr. A short film called Embers showed us the end of Ezio. No end to Connor?
    I got Assassin’s Creed 2, Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, Assassin’s Creed 3, Assassin’s Creed Liberation, Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag, Assassin’s Creed Rogue, Assassin’s Creed Unity, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, Assassin’s Creed Origins and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey on PlayStation 4. I wouldn’t mind getting the original on PS4 too.

    Ok, but you missed one thing: Ezio and Sofia had daughter named Flavia and SON named Marcello. Besides you should say something about Ezio's siblings, Claudia for example. She's an assassin too. Claudia is a leader of order in Rome, what makes her very important person. If you talk about assassins from Desmond's family, than say something about ALL of them.

      I initially thought this was just the people Desmond was descended from, but that excuse was shattered when they brought up Mario.
      I mean, Desmond has more Bernard Kenway in him than Mario Auditory. :P
      Then there is Jennifer Scott who was also overlooked. Not an Assassin, but certainly relevant to both Edward and Haytham's story.

      @Robert Andrews I don't know where you heard that, but as someone who played AC II several times and read on the lore several times, I can confirm that Ezio is 16 and Desmond's common ancestor, it says so in the story. They first caught a glimpse of Ezio through 16's DNA, but the connection wasn't as strong as it was through Desmond.

      SparkZ she knew about both assassins and templars and their conflict, haytham was meant to be an assassin before birch made him Templar. Jennifer knew it and was jealous of him for it. When she grew older in captivity, haytham found and freed her and from then on they exchanged letters, saying mostly typical things, but haytham was also informing her constantly about everything happening in the order and his views. She was also informed of her brother's death at the hands of his son, and had some views on the conflict herself. This is said in the unity and ac3(forsaken) books
