Xbox has it listed for 10 bucks so thats much more bearable. Also the trailer droppedWhile I was right about it being about Clay it's not in the way I would've hoped. It's Clay in the Inception-esque rooms like in the Desmond Journey. I'm still excited about it. A girl says "You kept him in there too long Vidic!" which makes me believe its Lucy but it doesn't sound like Kristen Bell. She didn't have any lines in the hidden dialogue unless she recorded them at a later date It's just an annoyance of mine when they change voice actors. EDIT Upon relistening it sounds like sounds like Rebecca

I imagine Kristin bell might not want to reprise her roll after she was killed off. Since the trailer references lucy, i'm leaning on it being her.

On the note of voie actors. I just found out John De Lanci voices Desmond's father. Freaking Q from Star Trek!
That made my day
Anywho beat Lost Archive(maybe some spoilers)
My biggest question is when does it take place? In the opening it gives a date of 10.10.12 which places it at the end of Brotherhood. Maybe Desmond was only in the animus for a day and Clay survived deletion.
Juno telling Clay to help Desmond makes me think its after Revelations because up to this point Clay hasn't really helped Desmond. The symbols in AC1 didn't help, neither did the Truth Files and Clusters from ACII and Brotherhood; it was just exposing the truth that this war has been going on for centuries.
I dunno. I think Clay will be in ACIII and that he survived deletion because in Sequence 7 the computer states "Construct Clay Kaczmarek quarantined."
But again, it all goes back to when LA takes place.
I did like the surreal architecture and learning about Subject 16s past and Lucy's past as well. It's understanding why Lucy joined the Templars but it could've been avoided if William had been more open with what her mission would be.
Overall, good DLC, although there are still 2 unused arches on Animus Island

The problem I'm having with the DLC is WHO is suppose to be living it. I'm struggling to remember it giving any indication on who's living it. Although, I suppose most indications would suggest its Clay himself. The DLC didn't really tell us too much, other then Lucy being a double agent, and we never get that in dialogue, just a letter or two, and some static images and audio by Vidict. It's left me confused by who clay was, I mean, they seem to suggest that his family wasn't one of the assiassins, but then, he was part of the assassin bloodline.

I think its Clay looking back on his life like how Desmond did in the main game.
As for Clay, I believe he was recruited into the Assassin's like Shaun and Rebecca. Born outside the Order but brought in to serve their interests.
Clay's bloodline is from the Auditore flavor resulting from one of Ezio's romantic conquests prior to Sophia
Oh, that Ezio

The problem is, the DLC doesn't exactly seem linear. I get the feeling that bits and pieces of the dialogue come from before/after the main events taking place, and If we are playing as Clay, he's not offering any real narration while reliving these moments. I should read the encyclopaedia that came with the Animus edition.

I always try to construct timelines for things (work projects, school projects, game stories, etc) so it's easier to understand. That 10.10.12 date is just screwing with me
