*** Even worse when you realize that Connor himself tried his best to avoid killing Haytham too. Despite being pretty cold to Haytham, he really wanted the idea of Templars joining hands with Assassins to come true. A cut dialogue during their final encounter even had Connor first beseeching that Haytham break the cycle of violence with him, then straight up ''begging'' for his father's life. If only Haytham could have dropped his jerkass attitude and let [[spoiler:Charles Lee die...]]

** Desmond and William don't have it much better either. Watching Desmond call out his father for using his son as an UnwittingPawn and concluding that Bill himself [[NotSoDifferent is just as bad as]] [[KnightTemplar the Templars]] is just painful to watch.

** Staying with Rebecca, if you look at some of the last of the e-mails, at the very end of the game, one of hers worries about what's going to happen on the 12th of December, before it ends on one line: "I don't want to die".

* The scene where Achilles gives Connor his name includes a moment where he alludes to the racism he faces in Colonial era America due to him being black. This was long before slavery was abolished so he sadly knows that people like him are looked down upon simply for the colour of their skin.
--> '''Achilles:''' Better to be thought a Spaniard than a Native... and both are better still than I.\\
'''Connor:''' That is not true.\\
'''Achilles:''' What's "true" and what ''is'' aren't always the same.

** William Johnson. He is convinced that the currently amicable colonists would turn on the Natives once they were finished with the British, hence why he [[CruelToBeKind threatens the Mohawk chiefs to accept Templar control. Seeing him call Connor's naivety out is gut-wrenching, especially if you know]] [[HarsherInHindsight what happens to the Natives once Americans began going West]].

Even Connor himself seems to feel bad about killing him, telling Achilles that all it did was make him feel regret.

** -->'''Pitcairn:''' It seems we are well and truly at war...a pity, that. For it's a war we did not ask for. A war we did not wish...and why would we? We're killing our brothers down there – and for what? Duty? Honor? Liberty and justice as the Yanks claim? No.
