Connor deserves his flowers. 🌹
When Assassin’s Creed III dropped in 2012, it split the fanbase right down the middle. After the refined charm of Ezio Auditore, stepping into the moccasins of a half-Mohawk, half-British assassin during the American Revolution felt… jarring.
Let’s talk about Connor Kenway. 🔥
✅ – He wasn’t a charming playboy. He was angry, idealistic, and betrayed—by his father, his mentors, and even the revolution he fought for. That’s real.
But here’s the thing: ACIII was never trying to be Brotherhood 2.0 . Assassins Creed III
✅ – Building a community, helping settlers, seeing Connor smile? One of the most underrated mechanics in the entire series.
✅ – Snowy Boston, muddy frontier trails, and colonial New York felt alive in a way Renaissance Italy didn’t. Tree-running and cliff-scaling? Revolutionary (pun intended). Connor deserves his flowers
But looking back? ACIII took risks. It asked: What if the “good guys” aren’t really good? What if an assassin loses?
