... a Templar?

Before I start, I would like to note that this is NOT a bash on Revelations and that I already have all the blog badges. So, I'm not trying to Blog Badge, or whatever it's called.

This is a complaint about the Lost Archive, and its story. Now, I haven't played up, but I've read up on it, and Lucy turning out to be a Templar makes me furious. I thought that was the weakest plot twist Ubisoft ever made. There could have been other reasons for Juno to kill Lucy off, ones that were much more interesting.

But Lucy being a Templar the whole time is just ridiculous.

First, I've been playing AC2 again (for the eighth time. XD I really love AC2), and I just have a hard time believing that Lucy would care so much about Desmond and her fellow Assassins, and still be a traitor. I feel like that the "traitor" aspect behind Lucy was made up at the last second, just to explain her away. Yes, there is the possibly of the "poker mask," and that Lucy used it well, but as the Wiki page on her states, she seemed to care so much about her teammates.

Because of these things, I cannot stretch my suspension of disbelief far enough to believe that she's a traitor to the Assassins--even if it IS canon, I cannot believe it. Ubisoft, if they really wanted her to be a traitor, should have done so more foreshadowing in AC2 and ACB. But they didn't, and because they didn't, it leads me to believe that Lucy being a Templar the whole time was just made up at the last minute.

What do you guys think?
