comment |
Darker and Edgier: If the main game was Lighter and Softer compared to Assassin's Creed III, Freedom Cry is far bleaker than that or any other entry in the franchise, dealing head-first with human cruelty with no varnish, with almost none of the series' Assassins v. Templarsnote upon seeing an enslaved woman being chased by an overseer, Adéwalé outright decides that the Templar pursuit can wait, and none of the Magic from Technology hijinks, to back away from it. |

Slave Liberation |
| | Assassin's Creed: Freedom Cry (Video Game) / int_15d8e4f5 |
comment |
Slave Liberation: Type A, B, and C, all played straight. Adéwalé, coming from a runaway slave background himself, actively liberates people enslaved to others. He can also go to slave auctions and buy the freedom of those being sold. In the end, those liberated wage asymmetric warfare to free yet more, going on to become one of the most successful slave rebellions in history. |

Not in This for Your Revolution: Adéwalé gets this, which he is aware is wrong on a level he can't put into words. He has to do some mental gymnastics to justify fighting for slave liberation over fighting Templars. Then again, the one Templar he encounters has more important matters to handle than trifling with a stranded Assassin. |

Beef Gate: Once Adéwalé acquires the Experto Crede, the entire map is unlocked, and there's nothing stopping the player from sailing to Wellington Harbor in Jamaica. It's guarded by some very powerful British dreadnoughts, including a Level 60 Man o' War. It is suicide to engage them at this point, and your crew encourage you to retreat until the ship can receive proper upgrades. |

Kick the Dog: Damn near constantly in places like Port-au-Prince. Adéwalé does not have to go out of his way to notice runaway slaves being chased down to be executed, slaves tied up against a wall to be beaten, slaves locked in iron cages, slaves being sold as livestock at an auction, etc. The slavers, aside from being bad guys in principle, go about being oppressive bastards with almost sadistic openness. |

Wretched Hive: If you thought Nassau was bad, it's nothing compared to Port-au-Prince under the tyranny of a French governor who enforces some of the worst racist laws in the world, with slaves sold in the market and runaways hunted down openly by overseers who kill with impunity. More than half of the city is made up of plantations. |

Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome: Not a character from either game but the Jackdaw, your ship in the Vanilla Game sank at some point after Black Flag, in some unexplained Noodle Incident. You can dive down below as Adéwalé, its former quartermaster, and salvage its figurehead. For those who bonded with the ship in the main game or acquired all the Elite Upgrades, this will be quite a Wham Episode and a Tear Jerker. |

Shotguns Are Just Better: Adéwalé's signature firearm is a blunderbuss, which indeed functions like a shotgun. Being the first area-based ballistic weapon in the series other than Connor's duckfoot pistol (as opposed to the single-target pistols, throwing knives, bows/arrows, etc...), the tutorial for it is Adéwalé approaching a group of four enemies at a campfire, and fatally blasting them all down with a single shot! Notably, unlike the pistols in the main game its shots cause a One-Hit KO against any enemy in the DLC. |

Greater-Scope Villain: With Adéwalé deciding that pursuing the Templars can wait in light of the oppression in Port-au-Prince, their involvement in the plot is minimal. Their fingerprints are all over the Geodesic Expedition (which features future member Antonio de Ulloa), but their precise involvement in it is never spelled out. The British Empire have little bearing on the plot, but their ships patrol the waters near Jamaica, and are stronger than their French and Spanish counterparts. |

Doomed by Canon: A case of Delayed By History. Adéwalé hopes to incite a slave revolution before leaving to rejoin the Brotherhood. The revolution he strives for does happen, forming the nation of Haiti as the result, but not until decades later. As per Initiates, Adéwalé's actions did lay the foundation for the revolution, and in fact his grandson Eseosa (whose father was the result of a post-game one-night stand between Adéwalé and Bastienne) plays a behind-the-scenes role in the Haitian revolution, much as Edward's grandson did in The American Revolution. |

MacGuffin: The Templar package that Adéwalé steals at the beginning, then uses as a bargaining chip to get Bastienne to help. The game never says what it is, or why the Governor wants it, or why it is more important than Adéwalé's entire crew, as Adéwalé claims. Rogue rectifies this. |

Demoted to Extra: One of the few times in the franchise that the Templars do not have a major role in the story. Adéwalé's quest at the beginning of the game is supposed to be hunting Templars but he gets caught up in the Maroon rebellion and decides to postpone his quest for the time being. |

What the Hell, Hero?: Bastienne gives Adéwalé one of these. She says that his open murder of Frenchmen and Overseers is inciting retaliation. Adéwalé shrugs it off. So the Governor destroys a slave ship in retaliation, killing hundreds. |

Historical In-Joke: The Governor makes numerous ludicrous charges at Louis Godin from ridiculous demands to spending a quarter of his expedition's funds on a diamond for his black prostitute mistress. The crazy thing? All of these charges were true and come from recorded real-life history. |

Fascist, but Inefficient: Slaves are constantly trying to undermine their masters, escape, or sabotage their efforts. Truth in Television and a major rebuttal to the idea slaves were passive in their oppression. |
