This analysis is pretty fascinating. First, it talks about Assassin’s Creed 1, which is not a sentence I ever expect to come out of my mouth in 2019, and second, it examines it through the lens of Capitalism, which Templars self-admittedly, in the games themselves, use as one of their methods to Control the human population in Present Day. (And even shortly before it, if we believe Syndicate.)
