3. Connor’s Development

第三個理由：康納的成長

Connor is a very unique character when you think about it. In AC3 he is a conflicted young man fighting wars he can’t win. On one side, he is fighting the Templars, who will no doubt rise again and on the other side, regardless of the outcome of the war, we know his people will not see justice. He lost his mother at young age and eventually lost Achilles. He is forced to kill his father and his best friend and once it is all said and done he learns his people were evicted. By the end of the game we see a naive teen become a mature, young man. But really, all we saw was the transformation and we never got a chance to truly see him with his naive side gone.

仔細想，康納是一個相當獨特的角色。在AC3他就是一個熊孩子，打一場不會羸的戰爭。某方面來說，他對抗聖殿騎士，而他們無疑的會再次捲土重來；另一方面，不管這場戰役的結果如何，他的族人都得不到正義與公平的對待。他失去了他的母親、他的童年、最終也失去了導師阿基里斯。他被迫殺了他的父親和他最好的朋友，他所承諾的一切包括他的族人都被驅逐。在遊戲的最後我們看見一個原住民少年長成一位成熟的年輕人，但是說實在的，所有的轉變都只是表面，我們看不到他身為原住民的內心世界。

For those who don’t know, Connor would have been 56 when the war started. That is a lot of time for character growth and who knows how drastically Connor could have changed? He could have a wife and kids while on the Homestead, trying to stay away from violence. Oh, yeah – remember how I mentioned that the Native Americans sided with the British…?

試想，1812年第二次獨立戰爭開打時，康納已經56歲了。從27歲到56歲，對一個角色來說有足夠的時間成長；而誰知道康納究竟會改變多少？他在家園可能有妻有子，並想盡辦法避免捲入戰火。是的－還記得我說那一戰，美國原住民是站在英軍那邊的嗎？

If Connor was to fight in the war, he would no doubt side with the States because he sided with them before and the Templars would most likely be on the side of the British. But this doesn’t mean he would join easily, for if he fought the war, he would have to fight his people and after killing Kanen’to:kon, that is by no means an easy thing for him to do. Not to mention he would become an enemy to his village should they find out (assuming they weren’t wiped out).

如果康納參戰，無疑的他會站在聯邦軍那邊，因為之前他就做出選擇，而且聖殿騎士屬於大不列顛。但這不表示他會輕舉妄動，因為這表示在他殺了嘎納貢多之後，再度對抗他的族人，這是艱難的抉擇。更別提他會成為部落的頭號敵人，而他的族人會頑強抵抗到最後一兵一卒。
