* Shay's accent is truly awful, but considering this is another Abstergo simulation, it lives up to Hollywood expectations. Remember, ill fitting and outright anachronistic linguistics provided by the Animus have been part of the franchise since ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedI'' and given justification as TranslationConvention for the benefit of Animus users.

** Not to mention the Animus in ''III'' was made by Assassins on the move, with a serious CelestialDeadline, whereas the one in ''Rogue'' is made by Abstergo, with a (probably) infinite budget, no immediate rush to make it, and many more hands operating it, rather than just Rebecca and Shawn. Small wonder then that it's got more room for detail.

** Despite everything Connor does, he is never able to secure a steady income from renovations like Shay does. This means that even after Connor destroys Templar rule, Shay still receives taxes from grateful businesses & individuals. Coupled with the small armada of ships he captured, Shay would have no problem killing Connor.

* By the end of the game, Shay has gone from a seemingly benevolent, albeit rash and angst-ridden, young man who wants to protect innocent life to a typical Templar bastard willing to spark a bloody revolution just to undo some of the damage [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIII Connor did to the Templar Order.]] One might simply chalk this up to typical moral decay. However, this is arguably foreshadowed as early as Shay's assassination of slaveowner Lawrence Washington. Despite Lawrence being an [[ValuesDissonance undeniably detestable person]] who deserves punishment (and [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIVBlackFlag previous]] [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedFreedomCry protagonists]] [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIIILiberation being]] opposed to chattel slavery), Shay feels guilty over taking his life. This "both-sides" approach to morality ("Sure, the Templars are bad, but the Assassins are worse because they kill old people!") shows that he has always had a short-sighted, naive perspective which refuses to see nuance ("Killing is usually wrong, but killing a slaveowner - even an old one - is justifiable.")

* The [[ArtisticLicenseHistory]] entry talks about how it is anachronistic for Shay to allow the singing of sea shanties as a privateer. However, Shay has always valued freedom (at least during much of ''Rogue'') and has a soft spot for working class men, which his crew is. He probably turned a blind eye to their singing as long as other aspects of discipline are met, and the crew gladly obliged.
