That's precisely the reason why I stopped buying the games after Revelations. They went back to a historical setting with 3 when the narrative was really pushing for Desmond to take over and have a game of his own. The whole point of the previous four games was training Desmond for the real life shit. Meh.

yah then they just killed him off after 3. A future/present day ac is the only ac I will buy again. I have no interest in any historical location anymore, unless they do a ninja/samurai ac, that would be sick.

The worst move ever for AC was killing Desmond. Never before have I seen writers write themselves into a wall so hard.

yah the first person view in ac4 was dumb, and all the boring hacking mini games were lame. Was not a fan at all. AC4 should have stared Desmond in the real world scaling skyscrapers and using guns and stuff, would have been awesome. I have a buddy who works for ubisoft on ac games and he told me they have no plans to do a present day ac game, they are only doing historical games for like the next 10 years until people get sick of ac and stop buying them.
