I haven't played either AC2 or AC:B in months, so I could be forgetting something, but I really don't recall any conversations like GLADI_ATOR mentioned.

Any input?

I'm pretty sure that that's complete BS. Subject 16 didn't relive Adam and Eve's life first, so it stands to reason he relived something way more recent. Ergo, you can go backwards or forwards as many times as you want.

the posts a bit guy

He's thinking of an AC2 moment in which Desmond is training in the hideout's warehouse section asking why he couldn't train using Altair's early years. Lucy tells him that they need to find the PoE and one of Subject 16's sessions implied that Ezio hid it somewhere/knew where it was. His memory is awful and he's extremely stubborn. Innocent

Here's a quick transcript of that dialogue:

Desmond: "Alright, you gotta tell me. Why Ezio? Why Italy? I mean, we could have just gone back to Altaïr again. Followed him during his early years."
Lucy: "It started with Sixteen."
Desmond: "Ah, good old Subject 16. He repainted my room you know. With his blood!"
Lucy: "I've been going through his files. Vidic flagged a couple of his Animus sessions. A bunch of different ancestors, different dates and locations... ancient Africa, the Middle East... but towards the end he became obsessed with Italy. I think he knew about the Vault. A few of the records of his later Animus sessions are missing. The sessions that are there... after everything the Templars put him through, after everything I put him through... it's all scrambled. If we hadn't pushed Sixteen so hard we'd have the answers already and maybe he'd still be alive."
Desmond: "So you're after the Codex and the Vault."
Lucy: "I knew you had an ancestor in Italy who was at the center of all of this."

Yurkle, you should just do what GLADI_ATOR suggested and replay both AC2 and AC:B (because he can't remember which one it was) to prove that this conversation never happened. That seems like a reasonable enough request. Wink

You won't even feel the blade.
