In any case, I have never doubted that the intended explanation is that Bayek can literally share the vision of Senu. This is a common element in fantasy settings where characters have a symbiotic relationship with an animal companion. I highly doubt Bayek can actually possess Senu though. More telling is that he actually does say "Be my eyes Senu" even if there's varying degrees of how literal he means by that.

Yeah, the possession is kinda stupid and it should not be related with this.<br />

But if Bayek can see what Senu sees... why can we control her? Of course it's because game mechanics and it makes it more entertaining and interesting, but how do they explian that in the AC lore? It should be just cinematics and not actual bird gameplay, you understand.

Meh. I'll just wait for the game. In fact, that's what we all should do. I'll see if I can send a question to the game director about this in his twitter. If he replies "Not gonna spoil anything", it's confirmed that Bayek has some mind business with Senu.
