How can everyone be talking about Altair as the 'best' at what he did? The first thing we ever see him doing is wading out in front of his target so arrogantly that he broke all three rules of the creed, got his partners killed and mortally wounded, and brought an entire fucking enemy army to the doors of the assassin's home, putting everyone's life at risk, never mind how many of the villagers were slain on the path up to the castle...
True. That's why I voted for Ezio, 'cause I don't remember him breaking the creed (certainly never that horrendously!) That said, Altaïr's still fooking badass.

Connor, ugh. Massive letdown, like much of AC3.

I'd have to say Ezio, followed by Haytham. When 3 switched me to Connor I kept wondering why Haytham couldn't be the protagonist of three (don't answer that, I know the obvious answer).

After that, Connor, then AC1 Altair. I did quite like ACR's Altair... They gave him some personality and character development at least.

And as for why Ezio is my favourite? He has so much personality, and a great character arc over the three games. I didn't fully appreciate it until I went back and played 2 again after Revelations though.

I went for Altair.
I don't know, I guess it's just how serious he was. I don't usually liked serious characters, but it just seemed to fit for him.

I have to go with Ezio, with second place going to Aveline. Ezio is a good dude that had bad things happen to him, yet through this he strove to protect everyone's minds from being controlled by the Templars. Connor... well Connor is just a douchebag. Early Altair is too arrogant, and while he's much cooler later, Ezio never had that problem. I like Aveline because she's obviously being played by everyone she trusts, but she trusts her instincts and goes out of her way to help anyone she can anyway. But yeah, I almost liked Haytham better than Connor and he was a supreme asshat.

I went with Enzio. He was just fun and flirted with the ladies.

I dialed my expectations down for Connor but he managed to limbo under them with the standard issue stoic Indian. Doubly disappointing after his mother proved to have a bit of a sense of humor (why are you talking so slowly?), but Connor is just so dour and too damn naive to live.

A shame the game didn't hit the divide between the American Dream and the American Reality a bit harder. They talk about it a lot, but most of the time it's just big speeches about Freedom. I would have loved to see the historical characters fleshed out a bit, showing them to be a bit less than legend would have them. Such as, some people think Thomas Jefferson had Aspergers, and his example certainly didn't live up to his rhetoric.

Instead, they're mostly portrayed as being really wonderful and/or colorful characters, while Connor acts like a dick every time one of them touches him.

heyy i havent played either AC3 or liberations yet so i cant say whether i like connor or that chick .
but from the two AC games that i played AC1 and AC2 i feel i really liked Ezio a lot.
i thought Altair was dull and bland while Ezio had more character and depth that i could get behind.
this ofcourse has to do with the fact that AC2 had a much better wriiten story and more character development for Ezio than altair.

It really got annoying how much they talked about Altiar in the Ezio games. But then I got tired of the constant Ezio games.
I'm only like an hour into the newest one and I haven't even met Connor yet.

So my vote goes to the squad of prostitutes you can hire to provide you cover.

Mostly because they really fleshed out his character, but also because they got rid of that ridiculous American accent.

Ezio is still my favourite though.
The only thing that bothered me about Altair(and Ezio) is that they used the same model as Desmond. Ancestors are cool and all, but are they really going to have the exact same face, hundreds of years apart from each other? I both agree and disagree about Altair's voice, though. I didn't mind that they got rid of his silly American accent, but I wasn't too thrilled about his childishly high pitched voice. I kinda wish they'd have just kept his deeper tone of voice.

Annnnd my favorite would be Ezio in Assassin's Creed II. I got bored of Ezio in Brotherhood and by time we got to Revelations Ezio had long worn out his welcome, as far as I was concerned. As for Connor, at least he didn't look exactly like Desmond, right down to the damned scar on his lip. .-.

Ezio was charming and had a great voice actor, Altair didn't have much of a personality at all, Connor was ok, Haytham was fairly interesting but underdeveloped. I really liked the interaction between Haytham and Connor and wish we'd seen more of it, it would have brought out the more salient features of Connor's personality. He's really the kind of guy who needs to be reflected against someone else, with a strong personality,to be known. He sort of fades into the background otherwise. Altair on the other hand was just boring, and with the worst voice actor in all the games.

Overall I liked Ezio the best, with Haythem a close second.
