I finished the game last night. I had this odd feeling of synchronicity while watching the ending scenes. My husband and I had just had a conversation Saturday morning about that topic. Not exactly, mind you, but the general topic had been in my consciousness recently. We had been watching an episode of Ancient Aliens and we both have come to the conclusion that it is certainly possible that aliens have something to do with where we came from and maybe even more alarming, where we, as the human race, are going.
I know it's just a game, I know it's meant for entertainment purposes only. Though the entirety of the game focuses on Ezio's story and the assassins in Italy, the real message of the game is clearly what is happening with Desmond and the others. It's about how these political and historical events tie into the reality of what is happening right now. By looking back they are looking forward.
Really quite deep for a 'mere' video game.
