Assassins don't deserve happy endings

Ойындар

A continuation from my last video. I don't think that Assassin's should have happy endings in both a narrative sense and in the moral sense.

    You’ve got a great style of video here, I’d love to see longer form videos from you. Maybe something like breakdowns of each protagonists character changes from beginning to end, maybe some insight into lesser known events in their lives like altäirs childhood or something. Keep up the good work 👍

    Your content has really caught my interest and this deep dive into the psyche of the assassins is different. Wish you the best

    It would be interesting to have a character who struggles with the idea of killing, and throughout the game he/she questions the very nature of what truly means to be a member of the order and all It takes from an individual. I think that the franchise hasn't explored the most fundamental part about what being an Assassin's really implies.

    Great video essay (this and the previous one)! I think assassin's creed has so much potential to talk about the psychology and ideology of the assassins, it's such an interesting topic although seeing the Ubisoft making the franchise as mainstream as possible that's probably not going to happen. Best we'll get is people talking about it on the internet I guess. But yeah, keep up the great content!

    There was that scene in AC Odyssey where the player was confronted by the families of all the guards they killed during the game. I think it was in one of the DLCs I believe.

    I mean I suppose the ending is "happy" in that it's not depressing or sad but I the best term is bittersweet. There's an underlying negative tone, sometimes obvious sometimes subtle.

    About Ezio, in Ac Revelations he decided to give up with Assassins life after murdering all that innocents in Cappadocia, various elements about it for example in Valhalla's files, suggests that he was truly traumatised by his later actions and he lived with it, in fact during Ac Ember he was truly stressed and sad. I also love the Arno story (they all criticized it for no reason), his all life was a sequence of tragedies, because he had a way of being that involved him in so many mistakes, he lost is father because he came late, but wasn't his fault, he wanted to explore like all the childrens, he lost De La Serre because he does not deliver the message, but wasn't his fault because he wanted to stay with Elise and cannot know what can come. He then matured and wanted always to protect Elise because he doesnt want to lose her, but he lost her, this tike because the destiny want it like that, he did all that he could do, but wasn't enough, it's very sad and tragic, because Arno was a pure person.

    I was moreso thinking of how he talks about Edward when shouting at Adewale in AC Rogue. I always thought he changed his mind later on as he got deeper into the Templar cause.
