    I don't think that's a message to Rikken, it's something Lynch tagged onto the Templar's voicemail. Kind of like a reverse Otso Berg move in Rogue. That's why we can hear it, too.

    Of course, I'm not sure I'm a big fan of the Assassin/Templar prank wars that are going on. As funny as it would be to see Connor get short-sheeted (dude seems like he would not take a joke well), I'm not sure it really falls into the Assassin ideology. Plus, putting the Assassin tenets on a major company's voicemail is ironically "compromising the brotherhood" far more than we've really seen in the MD so far.

    I actually hadn't listened to this today... all I can say is WHY?

    So Callam somehow hacked into Alan's phone despite being in a cell just to leave a voicemail message at the end of his reciting the creed tenants?



    I think I will wait for a trailer

    Thank you, my friend.

    I think the idea was to make each and everything released under the Assassin's Creed brand feel equally interesting and just as connected with the story as the main games and their DLC are. But I agree that the main games should tell bigger stories, instead of scattering important aspects in various media. However, since this is a movie, they probably wanted to put something big and important to make fans relate and perhaps to hint at future appearances in games. I don't know, to be honest.

    But I'm guessing since the next game is gonna take its time and is said to be a major revamp, I'm guessing they're definitely giving the story the biggest attention, because the gameplay was never really bad. It was always expanding, but the story was sort of dissipating with each new entry. ACS had good modern day, though it's unplayable, but better than just video chatting with Bishop for a few seconds. So I hope the next installment will give a bigger budget to the modern day and make both the hardcore fans and newcomers care about it.

    Those could have been some good missions now that I think about it. Obviously that's including huge assumptions and whatnot but that last MD scene with Galina backflipping all over the place would have been cool to play about with.

    I would love to have Galina lead the Modern Day side of things. However I think the MD parkour skills should be completely different to the protagonists. I wouldn't see a person in 1300AD doing backflips etc but would love to do so as Galina.
