Anyway, there was an assassin's tomb hidden inside and when I got Ezio inside the sanctuary of the the church, I was floored. I had to stop playing for about a minute and just walk around the virtual reconstruction of this church. It almost made me water up (it was late, I was tired, whatever.) I just happened upon this post of yours (read the original Pyro post as well for context) and I'm glad you took up a defense for art. One day, I'm going back to Italy and I'm going to visit Venice and see St. Mark's Basilica.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14846018331441008428noreply@blogger.com
