Playing as ezio from arrogant young aristocrat to a badass master assassin in his prime, and finally to an ageing but wise assassin in his twilight years is something that I’ll never forget.

“When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it. And I had love, but I did not feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. And now, the twilight of my life, this understanding has passed into contentment. Love, liberty, and time: once so disposable, are the fuels that drive me forward. And love most especially, mio caro. For you, our children, our brothers and sisters. And for the vast and wonderful world that gave us life, and keeps us guessing. Endless affection, mia Sofia.” Me at 14: Oh those are some pretty cool words Me now as a jaded adult: *breaks down in tears* Dear God I get it… I finally get it

MAN.... I don't think any of us even fathomed how special the Ezio trilogy would be to us for the rest of our lives

I had honestly forgotten how much this series meant to me, then I heard this theme in a random playlist and I basically sat up in my bed as emotions flooded my mind. The memories came back and I remembered how much fun I used to have as Ezio, Connor and Edward. I don't know how I stopped geting the game every year

"Che bella vita la nostra eh fratello?" "La migliore, possa non cambiare mai." "E possa non cambiare noi."

The best assassin with the best storyline. And by far the most emotional parts.

"There are certain moments, a man never fogets. His first kiss,his first duel, but most of all, when he discovers his purpose at life...

“My story is one of many thousands, and the world will not suffer if it ends too soon.”

This- I- I mean- I don't know how to describe this Masterpiece....

"Claudia.. My dear sister My story is one of many thousands and the world will not suffer if it ever ends too soon." -Ezio Auditore Da Frienze 1529

Frederico Auditore: It is a good life we lead, brother. Ezio Auditore da Firenze: The best. May it never change. Frederico Auditore: And may it never change us Man this games gave me the feels

Enough to make a grown man cry😭 ezio was my childhood

I should warn you, I will play this on loop for hours now. It’s just so beautiful!

My mom picked me up from school one day, told me there was a surprise waiting back home. Now I wasn't really buying that because these were rare. I came home, ditched my bag on the floor, I found a brand new copy of Assassin's Creed 1 on the table. Thank you mother, your gift made me make a lot of other digital memories with Altair, Ezio and many others.

I was 13 when the first AC game launched in 2007 with Altair. I was hooked immediately. But getting to experience the Ezio trilogy is what made me fall in love with everything AC. The music, the characters, the messages about life and rebirth, the conflicting ideals of the human mind of what is right and wrong.... This series became my all time favourite. When Brotherhood came out and they introduced multiplayer, I played it for hours on end, every day. Met one of my best friends on there. It's unbelievable to think how much games like this one can impact one's life. I wish so very much that the old Ubisoft teams stuck around to direct the franchise the way we wanted it. Desmond's story felt rushed and unfinished. There was SO MUCH potential with his story and the passion Ubisoft had back then was much more grounded and purposeful. I'm not too fond of the open world games we've been getting, they're alright to me. It's very hard to build connections to characters like we did with Altair and Ezio. Here's to hoping future games are better though! : ) I also was obsessed with this song. I had it on my spotify and used it for studying through my school years ;D

No lie when he mentioned perfection in the title Respect ❤️

I was staring at Ezio all the time the song played, this is what i call a masterpiece-

Damn this music is epic it reminds me of my childhood 🔥🖤

“I have lived my life as best I could, not knowing its purpose, but drawn forward like a moth to a distant moon. And here at last, I discover a strange truth. That I am only a conduit, for a message that eludes my understanding." -Ezio Auditore.

Ezio to me was the pinnacle of the AC series. To me, the “holy trinity” of assassins was Altaïr, Ezio, and Edward. Connor was of course important but to me, these were the 3 assassins I always go back to. But Ezio has something no one else offered. I don’t think anyone has to agree with me, but when I say Ezio had the most impact in the series, I mean that with all my heart. Side Note: Ezio made me interested in foreign languages and now I study them in college. Crazy how video-games can change what we love to learn!

Venetian rooftops. Courtesans. Banks. Leaps of faith. Hidden blades. The Animus. Desmond Miles. Shaun and Rebbeca's wit and humor. Da Vinci. Et cetera et cetera..... Wow..... What an amazing childhood that was. Btw anyone else played Brotherhood before AC2, then moved on to Revelation.

Ac helped me when i was in a dark place, its sounds silly but this game kept my mental health togethor.

It still happens, every time, every time as i listen to the trilogy's osts or read ezio's lines and letters, i still get them, that same spine tingling chills ringing throughout my body as i did the previous time, or the one before it. Its essentially etched in my blood now, those memories, those moments. Requiescat en Pace Ezio da Auditore da Firenze ...

"No books, No wisdom.... just you, fratello mio"

This game and theme are forever iconic.. "It is a good life we lead brother. The best, may it never change, And may it never change us."

The ezio trilogy is truly a gaming masterpiece 😌

i’ll forever love the depth and growth of ezio’s character. the fact that we get to play through his life so thoroughly, and get to grow and learn with him was almost magical to me. sometimes i think ezio is genuinely one of the best videogame characters of all time

When that damn electric guitar chimes in with that Bb and lets it ring... My God... One of my all-time favorite moments in music, hands down, even if it's just nostalgia. So simple. So fkng powerful. (I realize it's a different tuning, here.)

It is a good life we lead, brother The best, and may it never change.. And may it never change us. Some of the deepest insight of the many years of ezios story we lived..

When I listened to this masterpiece for the first time it was entirely by chance, I had never played an Assassins Creed game and knew nothing about it. Yet this theme moved something in me at such a deep emotional level that I immediately went and bought the games, and they were my obsession for the next few years. Now I've moved on, I don't like what the franchise became, and even the old games that I love so much I rarely play. But man every time I hear this theme I just get carried back to so many memories, my own ones as well as the ones of the characters in this game. So many moments in my own life are linked to this one theme, and so many emotions of mine have been so greatly shaped by what i feel for these fictional characters in the amazing story that is assassins creed 1, 2, brotherhood and revelations. Playing these four games, especially assassins creed 2, has changed my life in ways that would be too complicated and too prove to describe here. But when that 14 year old boy that was me listened to this theme for the first time little did he know that he had just dropped a stone into the water and that the ripples would be tradable through his entire life and change it forever. Thank you jesper kyd for this masterpiece. It is a good life we lead brother. The best. May it never change. And may it never change us.

Man I loved that trilogy and I still play it , requescat in pace Ezio Auditore Da Firenze.

In November 13, 2007 i buy my first game Assassin's Creed…that's leap of faith is gave a different point of view in my life 🍂

Assassin's Creed is my childhood. I used to love every game to bits, but nowadays, in times where Valhalla is the most sold Assassin' Creed, my affection unfortunately started to dwindle. I really hope that future games will have a similar feeling the first games gave me. I love this franchise and I really want it to be successful, but not the way it is currently portrayed.

Requiescat in pace.. Ezio.

Ubisoft immortalized themselves after making ac2. Masterpiece!

13 years after, I started replaying this trilogy again...man we had a great development in gameplays and graphics and cinematics...but such greay history, twists, dialogs and attaching characters...we are no more having ones of that kind....Ezio Auditore Da Firenze's collection is the best saga of AC, and this ost, what can I say 😢

The nostalgia that you brought back is priceless thank you so much for creating this 🕊🥹

This makes me feel like I just saved the Holy Roman Empire

Well thank god we are actually getting an assassin based ac game now

this man has a heartbreaking story, father and brother killed in front of him which he ends up burying, doesn't have enough time to grieve because he had to take care of his remaining family, and when he is at a point of stability his uncle is killed in front of him, Ezio is a damn legend

Little did I know as a 14 year old on Christmas 2009, that the game I had just pulled from my stocking, would change the way I felt about video games forever. I love Assassins Creed 2. I love Ezio and I love this music. Thank you Ubisoft for this masterpiece.

-It is a good life we lead, brother. -The best. May it never change. -And may it never change us. * * * I am weary of this fight, Claudia. Not because I am tired, but because our struggle seems to move in one direction only. Towards chaos. Today I have more questions than answers. This is why I have come so far. To find clarity. To find the wisdom left behind by the great Altaïr, so that I may better understand the purpose of our fight. And my place in it. Should anything happen to me Claudia, should my skills fail me, or my ambition lead me astray, do not seek retribution or revenge in my memory, but fight to continue the search for truth, so that all may benefit. My story is one of many thousands, and the world will not suffer if it ends too soon.

Ezio's Family is already a masterpiece, it doesn't need changing

Ezio Auditore Da Firenze …*true story* when I first played Assasssins Creed 2 from the start to the bitter end I then asked myslef like “right, ezio is a badass and all but what does his story try to tell” and I just learned one thing that revenge is never key to accomplishment or pleasure it’s just a repeat on the same chaos that had start it all . So, take action and do payback or …learn and seek the real truth about it’s cause of consequence. (like Ezio Did) a true Man. 🗿🗡️

Oh God, AC was part of my childhood, today when I listen to the soundtracks I start to tear up and see how difficult life is.

Not only is the music so goddamn emotional to the viewers, you chose the perfect image of ezio here, to me perfection isn't the audio, it's the combination of that audio with the image

The most Epic music I have ever heard!!!!!!!!

After all these years i still get goosebumps when i listen to this masterpiece , what a game , what a story , what a music!

this is just gold pure gold

“Its a good life we lead brother, may it never change and may it never change us.”

The thing with this song that I believe that captivates me, and I would assume other people is the slow build up of the song starts out very light, melodic, it keeps a very medieval vibe through out the song, as the song goes on it gives such an emotional like "haunting" vibe through the song that's honestly the best way I can describe it. Towards the end we get a nice distorted sound coming from the song almost like a medieval-rock/metal. The song has so much emotion drawn out of you its so captivating and engaging, the weird passionate, haunting, heavy emotion I get through the song is so amazing it's incredible work by the composer. The song will by far be the thing that people know AC for, it will forever be one of the main things people take from the game.

One day i heard this soundtrack. In that moment born my wish to play this videogame. It was masterpiece, i will not forget it. Never in my life. Sorry if my english some bad

We were living the golden days and we didn’t notice.

"It is a good life we lead brother. The best, may it never change, And may it never change us." Its kinda sad how I'll never be able to experience games like I did before. Assassin's Creed just had that "charm" that no other game could ever come close to - and it spoiled me forever.

Remember friends: Nothing is true Everything is permitted

This literally plays in my head whenever I get to visit my brother. We led a great life, the best. Things changed, but it never changed us.

this masterpiece is so good that its used in every ac game

This theme will always make me angry and sad at the same time. It's Ezio's emotional mindset in the first game. but as you progress through his life it stays there like a memory of who he was and what he originally set out for. it's the most dramatic revenge score I've ever heard and it hits harder because of the Character behind it. slowed and reverbed to perfection? Definitely.

When I saw the word "perfection" I suddenly clicked 😁 and it was❤

I have always loved this song, but NEVER expected to hear it slowed / reverb. Just beautiful thank you

Not gonna lie this made my eyes tear because all of the good memories I had playing AC 2 and brother-Hood and also Revelations, ahhh how I miss the good old days. 😭

Can't wait for mirage to come out. The ezio trilogy with forever be preserved in time as the pinnacle of assassin's Creed

i have no words this is a masterpiece good job bro

What a game it was i wish i could play it for the first time again, be little again experience what I experienced back then, just deeply treasure those memories .

Perfection, absolute freaking perfection.

Music makes a guy like me who's never played the ezio trilogy want to play the entire thing right away.

For a normal person this is just a beautiful piece of music but for those who played and lived the events this is a STORY.

Remember nothing is true , everything is permitted. Greatest masterpiece in the world ezio's family 😢.

This has to be my favorite theme in gaming it makes me feel so many emotions that I got when playing assassin's Creed and I'll always revisit this from time to time

Cuando otros hombres sigan ciegamente la verdad, recuerda: "nada es verdad" Cuando otros hombres estén limitados por la moral o la ley, recuerda: "todo está permitido" Actuamos en las sombras para servir a la luz Somos asesinos

Still remember the heartbreak I had when this played during ax brotherhoods ending I was just baffled

I'll never forget this game, I still remember the day I bought it and the excitement and happyness I felt, it will forever be my favourite game

A truly memorable theme. Semplicemente bellissima.

The Ezio trilogy in my opinion is the best trilogy in the series, Ezio has such a great char development, we grow up just like him, just a boy who doesn't know nothing to a man who have seen a lot of life

i don’t have any expressions to explain and describe this song and how amazing truly it is because with this song i just remind my childhood every time i used to play and be connected to assasin’s creed 2..i think this song can explain you only one word..Peak.

nothing will ever beat this music, a beautiful epochal song bringing back so many memories related to the entire ezio saga

I don't know why but whenever I hear Ezio's family music I just get way too emotional and on the verge of crying by remembering how difficult were the lives of Ezio and Altaïr, like they both lots their loved one in front of them, got betrayed only when they needed them the most and we're left to die. But in the end, they both became one of the best protagonist ever and won every1s heart and well in game even at the end they both won their best.

I got chills from just listening to this So many memories 🥲🥲🥲

Exit is really the only Assassin we all follow from the womb to the tomb…. Literally. No wonder he’s the one most AC players connect to- we literally are his life companion from beginning to the bittersweet end..

Such a beautiful memory of my childhood coming back from school to play assassins creed brotherhood

Miss those times…. This game is so magical.. can‘t describe those feelings back then.. it was no game, it was a lot more…was a world to escape in..

I hope Ubisoft go back to their roots with next AC games. AC Ezio trilogy was it’s peak. Hands down.

This song brings back so much memories and emotions. Assasins Creed not only helped me through a hard time. It taught me a lot. What is life without peace and liberty? I wish i could turn back time and enjoy this game. 🥹

A certified hood classic.

I want this played at my funeral ⚱️

Assassins creed 2 was a one in of a kind game, there were some other good AC games but 2 was special, nothing they could do could recreate the magic this game has

AC2 probably the best assassins creed in my eyes. AC1 helped build the foundations but AC2 just made it a masterpiece. Story , setting , music , dialogue…. Absolutely amazing. Ubisoft has never been on par since.

magical moments of existance and childhood... it was a better life we lead brothers, may it never changed and may it never changed us....

First ever AC when I was a kid and my favorite, still play it to this day.

Time only flourishes this song with nostalgia all the menories floods my mind truly remarkable trilogy ezio was a loquacious and charismatic character his charming words always ive looked upon His approach was calm and collected stealthy dusk at dawn never to be seen outnumbered but never submits amazing times as a kid not long does it last till it serves you a memory with a tear of hapiness slipping upon my cheek seeing my inner child presence in this moment yet there is also knowing im no longer that kid as time has passed makes you want to relive these times once again i thank ezio auditore for the amazing time i had with him

"Listen to him! A fine set of lungs!" "And what shall we call him, my love?" "Ezio! Ezio Auditore da Firenze!"

Best game I have ever played

This series is masterpiece, no doubt. Brotherhood version is another level. Ezio's family music, game aesthetics, cinematics, story, characters, emotions everything was awesome about this one. One day I came across the music, then I revisited the game and played this version again. Revived memories from last few years 😇. Thank you Ubisoft 🙏🏻 I'll never forget this creation. It will always me in my memories. I hope future generations come across using Animus for this one😅

Perfection is the only way to describe it. I may not be an assassin, but this sure as hell makes me feel like one. Thank you Psychic.

Recently played 2, and now playing brotherhood 😢 Connor used to be my favorite but after playing through most of the beginning of brotherhood, ezio had become my new favorite assassin. His story especially the improvement and maturity of the graphics and features in the game brotherhood made me fall in love with his story. I'm glad to be finally discovering this stuff now that I'm older. As an aspiring filmmaker, I thank all those Ubisoft people back in the day for making a wonderful character. 😢 God bless ezio and old Ubisoft. I also played AC2

Ah yes all the good times this game gave me i even have it as pfp, as a kid it was one of my favourites and i loved kyd's work on the soundtrack i listened it 4 months ago for the first time after 5 years and i teared up. No its not just a game its way more. Stay safe brothers nula e reale capisco elecito

Assasin creed,Ezio is was mi first assasin creed game and still now rember when i lisen this song,that time when i play this game and i was so happy to see that beatiful adventure,thanks for this song,

Each time i hear it i immediately remember random every ezio moment every laugh and smile every minute of running around Florence, Rome and Istanbul so amazing a wonderful feeling

Nice. Back when AC had soul

What not changed in these 4 years is the LOVE FOR EZIO AND THIS GAME❤ WE ARE ACTUAL BROTHERS OF HIM .. TO BE CALLED AS BROTHERHOOD 🫂 Today's gamers don't what this love is.....❤🥲
