That
picture is the logo of my favourite games series, Assassin's Creed.
This symbol is from an old and secret organization called Assassins,
which fought against the Templars. Its motto is "Nothing is true,
everything is permited". One of the main characters of the game and one
of the creed's most important mentor was Ezio Auditore da Firenze, who
made a philosophical thought about this sentence. His conclusion was
that "Nothing is true" means that each person believes and imagines what
he/she wants, so everyone is free to think; and "Everything is
permited" symbolizes that everyone is responsible of their actions and the
things they do.
I totally agree with this slogan and this game has become a way of thinking for me. Moreover these games show you difderent historical moments, such as the crussades or the Italian Renaissance, as well as the American Revolution and, most recently, the Caribbean Pirates. I love history so these games have got me since their begining. |
