so... wtf was that all about? for The Truth for subject 16, is showed Adam and Eve, in what appeared to be The Garden of Eden. Didnt the "god" or whatever that thing at the end was say to Ezio, "but they couldnt handle our advanced technology" or something like that?? Also, in The Truth, Adam and Eve were climbing a building, it showed something within the building, what looked like a factory. people were creating things, and a man was holding an Apple of Eden.
The "god" thing was sending a message to Desmond, to check the Pyramids and get the Apples of Eden. At the end credits, the Templars attack the hideout, so obviously they are still after the Assassins. But your good buddy, Warren is there to try and kill you. You have to fight him and his goons, but they run away, he says "Enjoy your victory Mister Miles, temporary as it is." MORE THAN OBVIOUSLY implying that you will see Warren again.
You go into a van with Lucy, Shaun, and the other girl (forgot her name). Lucy explains that there is a cabin, and how the Templar is not even the worst of Desmond's problems, but supposively, the sun is. More 2012 crack pot theories? Well anyways, there are just more and more loops in the story now. Who could it be if not the Templars? Could it be the gods? Jupiter, Diana, Neptune, Minerva (the "god" like thing at the end of the game), Apollo, Pluto, and Venus. All 8 are also statues you have to collect in the Villa.
With this being said, in the video, a sequence (sorry if i spelled that wrong) of numbers was displayed. I thought it was binary code, and did some research. The code is:
01000101 = E
01000100 = D
01000101 = E
01001110 = N
Ezio's uncle, Mario, before said "Nothing is true, everything is permitted"
Could the video be of Adam and Eve be some of the first ever assassins?
The reason i ask this is because these are recorded files from Subject 16 being an the Animus. So is subject 16's ancestor Adam or Eve?
Could that video be the origin of Assassin life? To be honest, this is all what i think. None of this could be real, i could be wrong and just making an ass of myself.
Could someone please help me with this? Tell me what you think about the endings and what you predict. Please let me know, so we can crack some codes for Assassin's Creed 3!
lol is person "x" ancestor "adam or eve" probably everyones...
Anyway, that thing which made Adam and Eve turn around was probably the solar flare which wiped out their civilization.
" Ezio's uncle, Mario, before said "Nothing is true, everything is permitted"
So did every Hassassin in Assassins Creed 1...Its just their code, it basically says every situation demands an action which only the one involved can decied at that moment.
Anyway, the story is getting really crazy, I do wonder what will happen in AC3 also, what kind of ancestor will you play?
And btw, about the gameplay, this franchise doesnt feel really like an assassination game, even MGS4 or SC feels more like it. More like a plattformer with a target to kill.
well, if in AC3, if you do play as an ancestor, then it might be Egyptian, as you hear something about Pyramids. Hopefully you dont play as an ancestor, since Desmond was able to learn how to fight as his assassin ancestors. Learning the skills just to keep playing as an ancestor seems pointless.
but i must agree, the story is getting amazingly crazy now.
I'm guessing the next game will be another ancestor, and then the 4th game will be modern day. Either that or 3 will be mostly in the modern day and a bit in the animus. idk, I'm just intrigued about what they'll do next.
Just stop me if this sounds crazy..
Now at least hear me out on this.
Could it be, that you, in Assassins Creed 3, oh I don't know, switch between the ancestor and Desmond in the real world?
Just a thought.. It just seems like it would be a kickass move to make and at the same time it actually makes a hell of a lot of sense.
Why it makes sense, you ask?
Maybe juuuust maybe because they did it for the first two games?

All parties consented to proceed before a United States magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 636. The case is referred to the *1327 undersigned to conduct all proceedings and order entry of judgment.[1]
Plaintiffs allege wrongful termination from public employment as Jasper County, Texas sheriff's deputies in February 1993 as a result of their age and, in Mr. Bumstead's case, also as a result of a physical disability. Both plaintiffs sue Jasper County and Roscoe Davis under 42 U.S.C. 1983 for deprivation of a state-created property interest without due process of law. Both plaintiffs sue Jasper County under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. 621 et seq. Finally, plaintiff Richard Victor Bumstead sues Jasper County under provisions of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C. 794 et seq.
Defendants filed an initial and supplemental motion for summary judgment. Initially, defendants claimed that plaintiffs did not possess a property interest in continued employment as a result of the longstanding Texas common law presumption of at-will employment. Therefore, plaintiff failed to state a cause of action cognizable under 1983. Moreover, defendant Roscoe Davis claimed protection in any event by the doctrine of qualified immunity. Defendant Jasper County further asserted that no cognizable cause of action exists under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act because plaintiffs were terminated for a nondiscriminatory, nonpretextual reason: inability to fulfill job duties. Finally, defendant Jasper County asserted that plaintiff Bumstead failed to establish that his employer viewed him as having an impairment substantially limiting his ability to engage in the major life activity of employment.
Plaintiffs responded that provisions in their employment manual created a property interest in continued employment with the county and that they were deprived of that right without procedural due process when they were summarily terminated in violation of clearly established law.[2] Plaintiffs further contended that the evidence introduced on their age discrimination claim is sufficient to raise a genuine issue of material fact and therefore the claim is not amenable to disposition via a motion for summary judgment. Finally, plaintiff Bumstead argued that he has stated a prima facie discrimination claim under the Rehabilitation Act.
Defendants thereafter, and prior to ruling from the court on the first motion for summary judgment, filed a supplemental motion for summary judgment.[3] Defendants now argue that Texas law specifies that sheriff's deputies serve at the pleasure of the sheriff *1328 and that the sheriff's authority to appoint and dismiss employees cannot be contracted away. Plaintiffs response to the supplemental motion argues that the general at-will rule for sheriff's deputies is subject to modification when an employee handbook is in effect.
Summary judgment should be granted only when the record reflects that "there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law." FED.R.Civ.P. 56(c). In deciding a motion for summary judgment the court must first consult the applicable substantive law to determine what facts and issues are material. King v. Chide, 974 F.2d 653 (5th Cir. 1992). The movant bears the initial burden of demonstrating that there is no genuine issue of material fact for trial. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323, 106 S. Ct. 2548, 2553, 91 L. Ed. 2d 265 (1986); Duffy v. Leading Edge Prods., 44 F.3d 308 (5th Cir.1995); Galindo v. Precision American Corp., 754 F.2d 1212 (5th Cir. 1985). "If the moving party meets this burden, the non-moving party who will have the burden of proof at trial must come forward with summary judgment evidence establishing the existence of a genuine issue; that evidence must be such that if introduced at trial it would suffice to prevent a directed verdict against the nonmovant." Duffy, 44 F.3d at 312; see also Hanks v. Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corp., 953 F.2d 996 (5th Cir.1992). Summary judgment is a final adjudication on the merits, and must be employed by courts with caution.
Further, when a failure to state a claim-type defense is joined with the defense of qualified immunity in a motion for summary judgment, the proper procedure is for the court to first determine whether plaintiff has stated a claim.[4]
The real crux of the parties' dispute is whether the operation of the at-will rule of 85.003(c) may be modified in a manner similar to the common law at-will rule for employees not subject to a statutorily mandated at-will status. Having examined the sparse case law on this subject and given due consideration to public policy considerations, the court is of the opinion that sheriffs are not free to alter 85.003(c)'s at-will mandate so as to create property interests in continued employment.[5]
One older, but frequently cited case, Murray v. Harris, 112 S.W.2d 1091 (Tex.Civ. App. Amarillo 1938, writ dism'd w.o.j.), is probably the clearest jural statement of a rule that a sheriff may not by contract alter the operation of the statutorily-mandated at-will rule. Murray involved a written contract between a sheriff and his deputy guaranteeing the latter employment until the end of the former's elected term. The court evaluated the public policy and legislative intent considerations behind the precursor to section 85.003(c) (namely, TEX.REV.CIV.STAT. ANN. art. 6869) to hold that a sheriff could not enter into such an arrangement because to do so "would be to destroy the right preserved to the elected public official to retain his subordinates during his pleasure." Id. at 1093. Said the court:
