The assassin and Templar conflict is an intriguing premise but also one that fails to address a fundamental core issue between the two ideologies. If you've never played these games or at least the games that I've played, it's essentially about the historical records of a forever war against two opposing sides. The assassins and the Templars. They've taken on different names throughout the years, they've each had the upper hand at some point, and at various points one has completely wiped out the other only for them to rise again because it's a natural conflict that arises between two diametrically opposed ideologies. However there are inherent issues with both assassin and Templar ideologies and while one ideology may obviously be better for an individual, they both result in long-term suffering and will no doubt result in a very similar endpoint, neither can ever work.
