No sé si muchos habrán oído hablar de este videojuego, pero sí que fue polémica sus temas sobre la temática religiosa de la que habla.

"...Historical relevance
The nine men assassinated were based on real historical figures who lived in the Levant around the year 1191, but many creative liberties have been taken. Most Hashshashin assassinations that actually took place were against rival fellow Muslims. However; during gameplay in Masyaf, in the fortress the player can see a garden (courtyard) with women near a "river" which bears resemblance to the initiation methods of the Hashshashin(drugging the person and then showing them "garden of heaven" and promising them more if they joined).In addition, Altaïr's targets bear no historical resemblance in appearance or character to the actual figures. Most of the young men Altaïr was sent to kill were in reality old and sickly at this time in history. Furthermore, the Teutonic Knights were not militarized until 1198, starting off as an order created to protect pilgrims traveling through the Holy Land. The developers have justified these changes by claiming in-game that the historical records were altered by the Knights Templar to deceive anyone studying the past.
Some of Altaïr's targets include: Garnier De Naplouse, the Grand Master of the Knights Hospitalier; Hochmeister Sibrand, Grandmaster of the Teutonic Knights; William V, Marquess of Montferrat, the regent of Acre; and Robert IV de Sablé, Grand Master of the Knights Templar.
The stronghold of the Creed is Masyaf, headquarters of the Assassins in the game, and also the headquarter of the Syrian branch of the historical Assassins. In 1191, when the game takes place, Masyaf was led by Rashid ad-Din Sinan, referred to as Al Mualim in the game, who was also the leader of the Syrian branch of the Assassins..."
También la carátula del juego aparece una A (que claramente tiene una forma bien peculiar), que en la temática del juego es el símbolo de una hermandad... ¿Curioso no, que opinan?
Saludos!
