Another anti christian game from assassins creed/ubisoft. Ever since the first game, how many times do they have to twist events and make christians the bad guy... i know the people behind the game are freemasony or of another cult, theycan't help but throw signs around the game world , some in plain sight others obscure, of 666, one eye and imagery of freemasonry /satanic images. In reality it was the vikings that invaded england and caused mayhem, burned churches and killed people. Here the Holy cross folk are bad, again.

As as Christian myself, I can honestly say that you are reading way too much into it. Within the Assasin's Creed lore, Jesus was killed by the Order of the Ancients/ Templars, the overarching bad guys of the series, not by the Assassins. Christians are never really portrayed as the villains in the series, the villains just disguise themselves as Christians sometimes, for instance the Borgia Pope in the Ezio games; they're not actual Christians, they just pretend to be. I will say that AC is not exactly the most Christian friendly series, but there are far, far worse series for Christians to play.

The whole point of having a Viking game is to play as a Viking, would be a pointless game that few would want to play if you played as the British repelling the Viking raids. Vikings are so popular that it was inevitable that we would get a Viking Assassin's Creed at some point. And they're not going to have you play as the villains, murdering and pillaging, they tried an AC where you play as a villain once, AC Rogue, and it wasn't very popular. So the only way to do it is to portray the Vikings as the good guys. The Order of the Ancients/Templars control the narrative of history within the franchise, using their power and connections, that is why we as modern humans remember the Vikings as murderous pillagers and the English king as a hero who repelled them, one of only 2 English kings to earn the epithet "the Great", the game shows us the "truth" is the opposite. 

I’m all for Vikings but I’m very curious how the game will spin them as the good guys, especially with the Templar narrative you talked about. They literally travelled to what is modern UK looking for trouble lol.
