Ubisoft, I hope you realize that several leading figures of the American revolution, including George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and many more, were Masons. For those of you who do not know. The Masons are an international secret organization who exist to this day. The reason I bring this up is due to the fact that the Masons are a successor organization to...you guessed it, the Knights Templar. Now, it would make very little sense if Connor somehow did not realize that these men leading the Revolution were in an organization related to the Knights Templar. If he did, wouldn't this mean he'd have to kill them as well? Is this going to be planned for, or will it simply be passed over as though it doesn't matter?

I haven't read much about masonery, but is it absolutely a fact that they're successors/connected to the Templars? I'm just having a hard time believing that Washington, Franklin, Lafayette could all be essentially 'the villains' in the game.

Ain't just so nice all the time to new members?

The masons will feature in the game and Hutchinson has said they will be portrayed properly (Whatever that means ).

It's not because he's a new member; it's because he didn't bother to see if there were any other threads about this - as is fairly obvious - and comment on one of them, rather than start yet another one.

They'll be in the game, but it's not really known if they truly have ties to the Templars.

The Masons were a secret organization at the time, if they are linked to Templars in the AC sense of the word, it wouldn't be common knowledge. But yeah, the idea of such historical heroes being bad guys, and casting dispersions on those so venerated wouldn't be a wise thing to do. Maybe they are more a seperatist movement than successors to the Templars.

It ain't even about whether it's wise or not. It's just that the game would be then literally filled with Templars. Washington, Franklin, Lafayette were all freemasons.

I'm not talking about the game, I'm talking about Ubisoft, they'd be risking a PR nightmare, but then again they did claim Henry Ford, Roosevelt, Churchhill and Edison were all Templars and they were in league with Hitler to start ww2, although Hitler betrayed them, you can't get much worse than that.
