Date of Murder Mysteries

De Lapparent is explicitly called a Police Minister by Vidocq when he is first introduced, but according to Wikipedia, he only served in the post starting from 1796 and only until the next year. Aside from the epilogue, the game's story effectively ends in 1794. Does this mean that the Murder Mysteries are actually set after the main story?

Some murders set in 1793, as for Marat and Despair, and I don't think that the Police Minister watch over prisoner personaly.Francesco75 (talk) 18:29, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

Oh you are right. What a silly mistake of mine to make. D: Sol Pacificus^(Cyfiero) 18:36, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

Not particularly this one, but a lot of the side missions take place on dates that don’t really make sense for Arno to have participated in them iirc. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 18:39, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

Arno could investigate on the murder in 1793 while he was exiled from the Brotherhood, he investigated as a common citizen.Francesco75 (talk) 18:45, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

Nstav has a better grasp on this but I think there are a few others where he’s supposed to be exiled but the mission description or events basically show him still with the Assassins. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 18:49, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

For the Parisian Stories, Arno helped principally famous figures of the Revolution, they are only few cases where he works for the Assassins or refer as one, Sewer Rat, Cult of Baphomet's arc, Crimson Rose's arc, Stop the Presses!, Encyclopédie Diderot, Swiss Stash, The Little Prince, Tapestry Thief and the American Prisoner. They all could happen before his exile and after his reinstatement. The Social Club missions are more complicated, some happen before or after is exile. The missions Café Procope (memory), Roux's Remains, Artful Dodger, Bara's Funeral, Retribution for a Rabble-Rouser and Betrayer of the Queen happen during his exile and the missions Let Them Eat Hay and Cat Food on a Hot Tin Roof happen even before his induction the 25 July 1789. So maybe Arno returned in his cafés as he was the owner and stole orders from the Council to reduce the power of the Templars or we accept that another Assassin accomplished this mission. For the Coop mission, as they are many Assassins in the memory, we can assume they are the memories of other Assassins that Bishop used for training.Francesco75 (talk) 21:53, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

One last thing—while you've been busy, I had Deacon do some poking around in Arno's memories. Seems he was a busy guy. See that symbol? That's a co-op mission. I play a lot of games multiplayer, I don't know about you. But I thought you'd like to mix it up a little. These are missions Arno ran with his Assassin buddies, so they'll give you an idea of what our organization's about. Just walk into the glitch and you'll get all the details. I've marked them on your map.

That’s from Bishop and unfortunately she explicitly says they are from Arno's memories but she also calls them glitches which might give us a little leeway. I had actually checked this a while back to see if there was a way to imply they might not have been Arno's. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 22:04, May 25, 2020 (UTC)

For the Women March, the Food Chain, Austrian Conspiracy and Machine Infernale, Arno could have participated, but the others happen during his exile and I don't believe that the Assassins let someone they fired participated to a mission.Francesco75 (talk) 22:11, May 25, 2020 (UTC)
