Exactly. Wtf did that shit with Ezio have to do with anything? Who thought it was a good idea?

Even worse is the idea of tying them all together as if anyone is going to play all of these shit fucking games and remember the characters/ story from 10 years ago.

I dont get how AC fans can stomach the future shit I prefer AC being this little conspiracy theory of big hostorical figures taking part in some shadow war behind the scenes

Am I the only one who likes modern day and conspiracies?

Desmond is shit

SHIT!

No. The payoff for these games for me was a modern day game with Desmond taking down Templars. I'm not interested in AC no matter where they take it. It's all the same boring shit.

It honestly wasnt I dont get how you thought the modern day was the pay off I played AC games to be some random shadowy asshole who is buddy buddy with all these well known historical people and maybe do some fancy stabbing.


AC is not the greatest but its not the worst its like the fast food of gaming. You should not eat it or enjoy it but you cant help your self but to to pull up the drive though sheepishly and order a big mac and fries every once in a while.

I enjoy the Animus if only for unearthing the history of conspiracy that the Templars were behind.

Actually the Animus is a great storytelling tool for exploring that conflict you were talking about.

See, the issue with these games is that people just want that historical tourism when really, the plotline with Those Who Came Before has been there throughout the entire series. If people actually read the logs from puzzles and interactions with characters, the whole business about the Isu, Juno, the Shrouds of Eden, and so on has been built up since the first game and it's still a major plot point even in Syndicate. I'm not a fan of these games by any means, but it's interesting that, as the rest of the game is affected by rushed schedules and boardroom decisions, they're able to keep up that franchise-wide conspiracy that acts as a decent catalyst between all the games.

Nope. I want them to double down on the animus stuff. I want some crazy precursor shit to go down.
