I didn't realize they continued the story in a side game. I thought Ezio's story ended after the second game. I'm not familiar with most of the games. So I don't know where the main story went. I don't think they'll ever finish the main story.
There's a LOT of games in the Assassin's Creed franchise. I think I'm nearing double digits in these games and I still have several games missing (mostly the newest games, but there's still at least two I'm on the search for that are slightly older). Ezio had a whole trilogy for his story arch and this is the second game. It's going to take me a while to get through all of these games at the very least.
@@afilio11 The game largely starts where Assassin's Creed II ends. Desmond's hideout was discovered by the Templar's, so he is forced to escape along with everyone else. Meanwhile, Ezio (past character) had just taken out a high ranking Templar who became the Pope to unlock this secret chamber and learn of its secrets. Ezio stopped him right after opening it up with the staff and the apple. So, it is Ezio that uncovered the chambers secrets instead. Apparently, it contained a message for Desmond (obviously, Ezio didn't understand the nature of the message since he is in the past). I don't know if any of that cleared up anything, but that seems to be where the game starts at least.

Also, the start of this game is weird. It transitions from a futuristic setting to a past setting. I'm not sure what's going on.
