Question too vague.

Play the first one, but keep in mind it's from 2007 and to view it on its own merits.

What point in their lives is this? Don't say their 'prime'.

Kassandra wins always unless Aletheia can switch off the effects of the Staff at will to give her hubby the upper hand.

@Phantom Four this is for background dialogue (guards, civilians), that's not subtitled.

I'm guessing 2027 for it's 20th anniversary.

I prefer being able to understand the NPCs. It helps me appreciate the content of what they're saying as worldbuilding.

Sidenote: as Animus technology improves, so would its translation software logically, yet it seems to have gone in reverse. The first few games (ex. 1 - 3) had a few words that slipped through, but were mostly translated, including NPC dialogue. Recent games (Unity, Origins - Mirage) - have NPC background dialogue nearly all in the native language.

It varies depending on context.

You are empowered to make these changes.

Kotetsu should also at least be mentioned, but Shao has more brand recognition, so I think she'd me more likely to appear.

I hope you're on PC, because console servers have been down for weeks and will remain so indefinitely.

In AC certain events, 'nodes', are more likely to happen than others, with reality moving toward them like a powerful magnet. One such event was the 2012 Apocalypse that Desmond prevented, and reality spent the next 8 years trying to course-correct for that, until Layla fixed it I think (I forgor how).

Everything else is fair game for free-will as far as I know.

Considering the Assassins came to Japan just a few decades prior to Shadows, we'll probably only see and hear of Assassins.

I wonder though when the last Hidden Ones started calling themselves Assassins. As far as we know in lore Hassan-i Sabbah is the one who created the Assassins as a denomination of Hidden Ones, and within a couple centuries the other major branches had adopted 'Assassin'.

I think the name 'Assassin' being publicly and notoriously associated with the Levantine branch caused people (and Templars) returning from the crusades to refer to the European and other branches as Assassins as well, in a derogatory and simplistic way, much parallel to the word assassin in real history. The Hidden Ones then simply embraced this term.

I don't think there's anything to indicate that the OotA were completely destroyed everywhere but England, and the only remnant was Templarised by Alfred. The OotA could still be kicking around as a separate group from some years afterwards, but they were probably snuffed out and scattered by the crusades.
