11 Biggest Video Game Plot Holes You Can’t Explain

8. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood - How Could Desmond Stab Lucy?

Yes, you could easily just have "All Of Assassin's Creed' as a subheading and nobody would bat an eyelid. The series has been on the brink of madness for years now; specifically ever since Desmond was addressed directly by a trans-dimensional God called Minerva.

As you do.

Anyway, the overarching story of AC goes that as the ancient race of gods commanded all of humanity with the Pieces of Eden you see across the games, eventually an immunity strain occurred in evolutionary terms - turning into what would become the assassins over time.

These guys would eventually form the Creed as only they had the ability to break away from their predecessors and defy orders - so why, come the close of Brotherhood, does assassin-blooded Desmond suddenly get mind-controlled again into stabbing Lucy against his will?

Sure that's one tiny thing in a sea of absolute gobbledygook-broth too many cooks have thrown their own signature spin on, but considering Lucy's death was the first big endgame shocker since that awesome Minerva conversation from AC II, it definitely sticks out.
