After passing on the information, Ezio put down his equipment and turned to leave Altaïr's library.
But Ben's whole mind had not yet recovered from the game's story.
The process of the whole story was extremely long, not shorter than the previous "Red Dead Redemption."
Even though Ben didn't really care about the side content in the middle, and clearing strongholds and tombs.
Just the main story alone had taken nearly forty hours to get this far.
From being a person like a rich kid to growing into a legendary master assassin.
Ezio's life was really too legendary, too magnificent.
He rebuilt the Roman assassin organization, created the brotherhood, and summarized and planned the inheritance of assassin skills.
Finally, in his old age, Ezio, in order to pursue truth and reality, went to the holy land of assassins without hesitation, looking for the secrets left by Altaïr.
And finally in the library, he completed his mission and had a conversation across thousands of years with Desmond.
Without quitting the game immediately, Ben just quietly waited for the game's credits to finish playing.
Because he was looking forward to hidden content in the later games.
This is also a common practice in the game industry, putting some epilogue things at the end of the credits.
For example, in "Red Dead Redemption," Mary went to Arthur's grave to visit, and Detective Ross found John Marston's ranch; in "Uncharted," Drake and Elena were a family of three.
Listening to the pure music called 'Ezio's Family', after about ten minutes, a picture appeared in the game.
Ezio, with gray hair and looking old, sat alone on a bench in the square where his father and brothers were executed forty-five years ago in Florence, quietly staring into the distance.
'You should stay at home.' Sofia said to Ezio with concern, bringing her daughter.
'This is my home.' Ezio smiled.
The family chatted for a while, and Sofia took her daughter to a nearby store to shop.
At this time, a young man walked over and sat next to Ezio, complaining about the women of Florence, saying that he wanted to go to Rome.
Ezio replied tiredly, it was not Florence's problem, and then began to cough violently.
The young man grabbed Ezio's hand, encouraging him to have courage, smiled caringly and told Ezio to rest well, and then turned and left.
Ezio was still breathing heavily, but when he looked at Sofia in the distance, he slowly calmed down.
At the same time, Ezio's monologue sounded.
'When I was young...'
'I had freedom, but I didn't see it;'
'I had time, but I didn't know it;'
'I had love, but I didn't feel it;'
'After decades of testing, I finally understood the true meaning of the three.'
'I am old and frail, and this understanding has gradually become a satisfaction.'
'Love, freedom, and time, once wasted by me, have now become the driving force for my progress.'
'And I dedicate the most special love to you, my dear, and our children, and the brothers and sisters of the Assassin Brotherhood.'
'And to the magnificent and wonderful world that gives us life and inspires endless imagination.'
'This love is eternal, my dear Sofia – Ezio Auditore.'
Finally, Ezio leaned on the deck chair in front of the Florence Cathedral and closed his eyes peacefully.
......
Coming out of the game pod, Ben had a feeling of being in another world, which also filled him with emotion.
The main character died again!
The deaths of Altaïr and Ezio are known, and although there is still Desmond left, judging from this situation, Ben thinks that if there is a sequel in the future, Desmond will not be much better.
Looking at all the dead male leads under Nebula Games, Ezio should be considered to have the best ending, and Altaïr should be able to rank second.
Three different periods, different assassins.
Each one left an extremely deep impression on Ben.
As for the most impressive, that is naturally Ezio.
Even not only the three assassins in Assassin's Creed, Ben even feels that this is definitely one of the most impressive characters in Nebula Games, and even in the games he has played so far.
As for the reason?
Because it is too complete.
Young, middle-aged, old, and finally peacefully deceased Ezio, the entire game perfectly shows Ezio's life for dozens of hours.
From the youth's unruly behavior to the family suffering misfortune, and losing his mind because of revenge, to finally growing into a mature and wise master assassin, and finally passing away peacefully.
Although in the game, his role is just a loudspeaker, his life can only be described as magnificent.
And Altaïr is the same, the story process about Altaïr belongs to additional DLC content.
But it well shows Altaïr's story from confusion to assassin mentor.
At first, he was arrogant and conceited, but later he understood the mission of the assassin, and even his behavior changed later assassins, including Ezio's uncle Mario and other assassins who were deeply influenced by Altaïr. At the same time, he also improved the assassin's hidden blade, allowing later assassins to not suffer the pain of losing a finger.
As for Desmond, although he is the least impressive assassin in the game, the advancement of the game's story also made players remember this character.
At first, he was unwilling to accept becoming an assassin, even if he joined Lucy and others, but in fact he still did not think he was an assassin, or how important he was.
Until he was controlled by Juno in the Forerunners and killed Lucy Hyuke with his own hands, sadness and regret occupied Desmond's heart.
Trapped in the animus, he reflected on his life, family, and the role of the assassin that he had been escaping for most of his time. Finally, through the memories and experiences of Ezio and Altaïr, he finally understood.
He realized that his comfortable life was over, and he had to face the reality that he was an assassin. He decided to stop running away and find the Great Temple to find a way to stop the world from being destroyed.
......
While the players were still sighing and immersing themselves in the gameplay and story of "Assassin's Creed".
Nebula Games' lounge.
'By the way, Boss Lucas, the Uncharted DLC trilogy has been tested.' Thinking of something, Marcus said to Lucas.
After the content of "Assassin's Creed" was completed, they put the main work on the previous "Uncharted" DLC development.
After such a long time, the development of these three stories has basically been completed and tested.
'Well, release it to the players next week.' Lucas nodded lightly. After all, "Assassin's Creed" has not been online for long, the players' pockets should be empty, and going online now will affect the sales of "Assassin's Creed" instead.
As for why the time point is set for next week?
Because it will be past the 20th by then, generally speaking, more companies start paying salaries at this time, and the players have money in their pockets.
'Then Boss Lucas, what arrangements do we have next, the DLC content of "Assassin's Creed"?' Anna also looked at Lucas curiously.
The current "Assassin's Creed" has not been on sale for long, but there is basically no content that needs to be developed, mainly some subsequent content bug fixes.
In addition, the related peripherals of "Assassin's Creed" are also being arranged in various ways.
For Nebula Games, the game is currently one of the main sources of revenue, but after so many years, the revenue brought by peripherals should not be underestimated.
'Later, draw out a team for me, and then cooperate with Halloween and Double Eleven to give players a game for the event.' Lucas thought for a while and said.
'Halloween, Double Eleven event!?' Marcus, Hector, and Anna all put down the gamepads in their hands, turned their heads and looked at Lucas with confused eyes.
'All along, the Nebula Games platform has been offering spring specials and New Year specials. It is estimated that players are not fresh anymore, and why only e-commerce can do Double Eleven, can't our game company do it?'
'And in the past two years, our main direction has been placed on CosmosVR and Switch. Players on the PC platform have eaten a lot of old food. This time, the event will also be done with PC players to give them a big surprise.' Lucas explained to everyone with a smile.
Looking at Lucas's expression, everyone wanted to say something but stopped.
Surprise, is it really a surprise?
