Ubisoft gives details on the backstory of Assassin's Creed III's Connor
“We want to explore this notion of duality. He’s of neither culture. And if we’re going to talk about the American Revolution, we didn’t want you playing Mel Gibson from The Patriot. And we didn’t want you in a military uniform. The AC universe is one step back. ...We wanted Connor to be more of a freedom fighter. He’s not out for personal revenge. If he sees injustice, he will help. The notion is that he fights for his people, and he wants his tribe to be relevant in the future of America. He fights for the Patriots because he believes that side of the conflict is just, and he fights for the Assassins for the same reason.“ - creative director Alex Hutchinson
