1* This bit from a conversation about Adéwalé's exploits during the age of piracy:
2-->'''Louis-Joseph Gaultier:'''...rubbing elbows with the likes of Blackbeard, Woodes Rogers, and [[ButtMonkey Calico Jack Rackham]].
3-->'''Shay:''' Calico who?
4-->'''Louis-Joseph Gaultier:''' Oh read a book, will you.
5* A quip from Gist in reply to James Cook stating that he has only been as far south as Nantucket:
6-->'''Gist:''' I once knew a man from there.
7* Gist's LargeHam performances are full of them. But this one comment from him.
8--> '''Gist''': While you were taking down the fort, [[BlatantLies I just happened to come across the treasury room]].
9--> '''Shay''': (deadpan) You don't say.
10--> '''Gist''': I know. It was the darnest thing.
11** Then there was just after meeting some more Templars
12--> '''Gist''': Let's celebrate! First rounds are on... the Colonel here.
13* While Haytham is interrogating a mook for Hope's location:
14-->'''Haytham:''' Where is your boss?
15-->'''Mook:''' I'll never tell! She'll kill me!
16-->'''Shay:''' If you don't tell, he'll kill ya.
17** After the mook reveals Hope's location, Haytham kills him anyway. Shay is left with blood splatter on his face which he wipes away with a bit of disgust.
18* If you help out with one of the British-French clashes throughout the world, one of the victory taunts from the British, aside from "The ale will flow tonight!" and "The King himself would be proud!", is "[[RefugeInAudacity I]] [[PrecisionFStrike fucked]] [[IBangedYourMom your sister!]]"
19* A meta one- Shay's actor, Steven Pivosan, knew that most of the advertising budget would be going to ''Unity,'' so [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYI0bVlKTXI&ab_channel=Loomer in an interview,]] he revealed that he did what he cheerfully called "Self promotion" (To note, this was before he was announced as Shay)- he went to a Comic Con cosplayed as Ash from Pokemon, but on his shirt was a self-ironed out ''Rogue'' logo with "I am" over it. According to Steven, ''one'' person asked him what it meant, and they didn't even care.
20** From the same interview, Steven mentioned a particular scene with him and Richard Dumont (Who plays the [[LargeHam lovable hammy]] Christopher Gist) playing dumb on their alignment towards a curious James Cook. The final cut is they just shrugging it off, one of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRbI05b6Qv4 previous however...]]
21* During one of the glitch memories, Viola pinpoints the date as 1776. Otso immediately comments that Franklin was ambassador for America in France at that time, causing Viola to snark:
22-->'''Viola:''' Ladies and gentlemen, Otso Berg- professional killer and amateur historian.
23* After completing certain Abstergo Challenges, cheats are unlocked. One in particular, has Shay shouting catchphrases. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvecA2FNbnk it has to be seen]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUa5n15bmuw to be believed]].
24* The in-game Abstergo Employees manual. Including them banning hooded sweat shirts, and telling employees they should be suspicious of people with a fondness for [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience wearing grey]]. And for the bleeding effect, telling them that if they see a fire, they should quickly touch the fire to check if it's real.
25* One of the ambient conversations once you arrive in Anticosti:
26-->'''Privateer 1:''' The rum here is terrible!
27-->'''Privateer 2:''' Let's see... that's not rum! That's ''eau de vie''.
28-->'''Privateer 1:''' What?
29-->'''Privateer 2:''' Whiskey.
30-->'''Privateer 1:''' Well, the whiskey here is terrible!
31* The achievement for hitting 5+ enemies with one [[HatePlague berserk grenade]], thus turning a squad of disciplined soldiers into an ad-hoc moshpit, is called "Instant Vikings". BlackComedy at its finest.
