* There's a brief moment when you witness Ezio's birth, especially if you or someone you know have experienced a miscarriage or stillbirth. Ezio born silent and the midwives give each other a sad look. Fortunately, Giovanni arrives, takes his son in his arms and tells him "You're an Auditore. You're a fighter. So fight." which is enough to make Ezio move and then cry.

* The last codex in ACII is Altair's last writing, where he says he's not long for this world and doesn't think there's anything after this. After a whole game, a little scene in the middle of the 2nd game, and 29 codex pages you've come to know this man very well and are now reading the last thing he wrote before he died.

The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEgE5z6Sl7Y music]] that plays during this sequence seems designed to bring tears ancestor Domenico Auditore, from his difficult study into becoming an Assassin, to the eyes.[[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil horrific fate]] of his wife, and the [[MentorOccupationalHazard deaths of his father and mentors]], losses occurring within mere months if not weeks of his life. His writings provide a detailed [[BreakTheCutie progress]] of his mental state and demeanor, picturing his life akin to a FailureKnight.
** In addition, his life-long mission bitterly mirrors his own descendant's [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge decades-long quest]], both dedicating their entire lives to hunt down the Templars and retrieve the lost honor of their family, at the expense of their happiness and youth. In Domenico's case, he also [[FollowInMyFootsteps dragged]] his son Renato to the conflict.
** Of another note, Domenico in his youth [[BornUnderTheSail adored]] the ocean and trained to become a sailor; the events surrounding his wife's rape and death, and both him and Renato finding her body washing ashore after the tragedy, ensured that Domenico never approached the sea again, the very "good life" he enjoyed as a young man.

* Seeing the cowardly Jacopo mortally wounded by Rodrigo is remarkably sad, considering how pathetic he has become. By the time Ezio reaches him, it's not an assassination but a MercyKill.

** Another incredibly sad bit from ACII is the final The Truth video, where you hear what were probably Subject 16's last words before he committed suicide: ''My mind is gone. Lucy, I can't wait any longer. I'm ready to go now. She sees me raise the knife...'' Especially sad due to the contrast to the earlier Truth videos where Sixteen is barely managing to hold himself together due to the trauma of extended stays in the Animus. This time he is completely calm, and at peace.
