But I don't know, I can't say I dislike Viktor, he's more openly dangerous but he lacks Eric's gravitas.

Similiar analogy, only the lack any of the ambiguity, Templars (in Assassin's Creed at least, I kind of hate how often there demonised, they really weren't bad people in real life, comparatively of course) exist in a belief that mankind can't be trusted with freewill and require someone to keep an eye on them, and the reccuring implication is the possiblity that they might be right. The royals however are purely about restoring the world to one where everyone else is under there boot heel. You know Eric's like a - more of an - annoying, loser-y, spoiled prince. He's bad, but he's not the kind of villain one would love to hate. With only news and a flaming car to speculate his death, I think I'll place my bet on him being alive.

Of course, the Templars are only pure evil - exclusively on Assassin's Creed. I never got a chance to see the comic, but I don't really like the story of the Great Purge(I even hatched a story where the Assassins on the ground gets massive support from a super high-tech space race organization called the HIGH ASSASSINS and they launched a full-frontal retaliation against the Templars - it was totally, "1,000 dead Abstergos for every dead Assassin man, woman and child" kind of brutal, and I'd like to share it with you - maybe on another topic). Of course the Templars are commonly mistaken real life - they ARE good people. But the Royals, they are really bunch of jerks. Oh, except for Sean - maybe.

Thoughts?
