[B]SPOILER ALERT FOR KYLE[/B] Okay, so I "beat" ac2 yesterday, since the game leaves you in sandbox mode FOREVER..ever....[I]ever[/I] Now between "the truth" glyph puzzles, "the first civilization", the actual "truth" video, and that freakin insane ending, where the gods predict the future and talk to Desmond, it was probably the most confusing game that I have ever played. Well, the story was confusing. Now, about the "truth" video. Minerva (that chick god at the ending) talked about a "first civilization" and how they were much more advanced, but human brains weren't ready to handle it. But, the entire planet was turned to ash by the sun, and they "rebuilt" the earth. In the video, Adam and Eve are running away from...SOMETHING....and their in this sweet high tech place, OR, THE FIRST CIVILIZATION! I think Minerva was chasing them, since she said that human minds were not ready...ready to what? to comprehend the power of the pieces of Eden, is my guess. Eve stole the apple of Eden, AND GOT THE FUCK OUT OF THERE with Adam. She tells Adam " Adam, i have it." but THEN, they turn around, scared as SHIT, :whoptc: and binary code appears on the screen saying "Eden" when translated. Basically, my guess is Minerva killed them. They also talk about in the last "Truth" puzzle, about how there was a missing link between homo (HURR DURR) sapiens, and modern day humans. I SUSPECT that the missing link(s?) were killed when they lived in the first civilization, the high tech place with all the gods. Not really a confusing part, but "The truth" puzzles all talked about important people in history, and how they were all assassins, who used a piece of Eden. EX, Joan of ark, who used the sword of Eden. BUT, they burned her alive, and some Russian took it. Also,when you put all the codex pages on the wall, and rotate them correctly, AND THEN look at them with eagle vision, it shows a map of the ENTIRE world, not just what had been discovered by 1480. If you look [U]CLOSER[/U] you can see assassin symbols all over the world. One of them in Rome, Coincidentally where "the vault" is... Where you see the gods. While Ezio is in the vault, and Minerva is talking to Desmond through the Animus, she talks about how there are temples that need to be discovered, (and those temples are the assassin marks on the codex wall, my guess) and if they are not discovered, the earth will get blown up by the sun REAL BAD, like it happened in the first civilization. Why did she ask Desmond to do it, and not Ezio? Well, People in Renaissance Italy didn't even KNOW about all 7 continents, but DESMOND did... So, anyways, that's my guess, this game left me confused as crap... Post what you think all "the truth" and that conversation with Minerva means.
It aint a god. [editline]05:19PM[/editline] I thnik its fucking confusing.
Okay so, what I got from it is that there were people before humans, and that these people then made humans using the Piece of Eden. However, they manufactured the humans so they would obey them as long as the Piece of Eden was in their possession. Adam and Eve find out and steal the Piece of Eden, releasing the humans from their figurative chains, and leading a rebellion against them. So, in a sense, without realizing it, the "Gods" for lack of a better term, were the first Templars and Adam and Eve, along with all who followed, were the first Assassins. And so they waged war. The "Gods" were stronger but the humans were way more numerous, so the "Gods" were fighting a losing battle. Then, out of nowhere, something that no one expected happened. Some kind of catastrophe involving the sun caused some kind of mass genocide, but there were survivors. Then, realizing that they should stop fighting and rebuild, the "Gods" and humans united. The "Gods" died out and after a looooooooooong time that really happened transformed from truth into myth and speculation since there was no written language. The "Gods" become actual Gods and the sun becomes some sort of be all end all for civilization. The Eastern Hemisphere "evolves" but the Western Hemisphere, or at least the middle of it, still know what's up. But then the conquerers come and destroy nearly everything, leaving only the calender that has the fateful day when it might all happen again--12/21/2012. So anyway, now nobody remembers and the world is doomed once more, except this time there are no "Gods" to protect the humans. However, the "Gods" foresaw this and put temples, or "Vaults" all over the planet to retell the actual tale. HOWEVER, Ezio finds it much too soon, before he can actually do anything about it. The "Gods" foresaw THIS too, and knew that Desmond would revisit the memories of his ancestors so they made sure that in the temple they let him know that they were talking to HIM and not Ezio. It can be assumed that Ezio passed this information down through his ancestors as well, which is probably why Desmonds parents knew it was so vital to keep him safe. So now the threat has shifted from the Templars ruling the world with the Piece of Eden to the sun destroying the world altogether. There's a catch though. Just like the first Vault that Ezio found, you need Pieces of Eden to gain entry to all the other ones. So now that Desmond has all his ancestors' abilities, along with the hidden blade, the search is on, both for another Piece of Eden and the Vaults themselves. Oh, and the Templars may or may not be oblivious to the fact that their doom is imminent. Whether they seek to just rule the world with the Pieces of Eden or save the world with the Pieces of Eden and THEN rule it remains to be seen. I think they know though. The satillite mentioned on one of the computers needed the Piece of Eden to function. I'm just not sure if it's to broadcast the mind-control effects or display the locations of the temples. Maybe the former, because they definitely want dominion like their ancestors. Maybe the latter, because Ezio did the exact same thing with the Piece of Eden when he found the location of the first Vault on the codex pages. Anyway, what I'm trying to get at is that Assassin's Creed III should involve an Eternal Darkness-esque search for the Pieces of Eden, locating and entering the remaining Vaults, and reconciling with the Templars. Or destroying them once and for all. Should be fun.
Thanks for spoiling everything in a huge clusterfuck of what looks like wasn't even an attempted use of proper paragraphs and grammar btw i beat the game too but there was no spoiler warning anywhere in this thread

The OP contains a blatant disregard of proper grammar and punctuation
