Uh, I like that it's being set where I live, but there's a bit of a problem, in Colonial America there weren't that many tall buildings, we're not going to have the same "wow" moments that the previous games had. In my opinion, London or Paris would have been better. Imagine assassinating someone from the top of buckingham palace.

Funny you mention that, in the previous games we saw that Washington's sword was a piece of Eden. Wonder what they're going to do with that.DC_Josh said:

I've got German, Italian, Polish, English, Swiss, and Swedish ancestry.
Say your great grandmother from France married a gentleman of Japanese ancestry, you can tie practically anything to anyone.
Even so, there's no solid guarantee that this is an ancestor of Desmond.
I think that is really really awesome but can someone please explain to me how Desmond is descendant of an Arab, an Italian, and a native American but looks like none of these? please?
other than that looks great, can't wait to get it. (but I miss Altair!)

Who wants to play as Desmond? That guy is boring as hell. American Revolution, MUCH more interesting. I have no idea why a Native American would care though. Either way their land gets takenChester Rabbit said:
Disregard my last post, I had neglected to see the released box art. I can appreciate the Revolutionary War as the next setting, makes sense when you think about the ending of Revelations. And really, how often has this setting been explored in gaming?
Plus, the span of time between AC3 and AC2 is pretty much the same as that between AC2 and AC so the premise seems reasonable to me.
Tomahawk and bow & arrow? Yes, please!

Haha, yes.GoaThief said:
For one, I get the feeling that the Industrial Revolution would lead to a lot of grey and murky settings.
And besides giant industry movements, I honestly have trouble thinking of any characters besides Jack the Ripper who really stick out.
This seems a little odd. During the American Revolution most native Americans fought against the US, so a apparently native assassin in front of an American flag seems out of place. And, frankly, I don't think it will be about killing American revolutionaries as that would probably get a lot of opposition. Also what's with all the male protagonists, I get the entire author/player insertion thing that you all like to do, but surely you have to realize that a strong female protagonist is a selling point right?
Who knows. Maybe they'll throw us a curve ball and make the French reinforcements secretly the real Templars the WHOLE TIME! *dun dun dun*Plinglebob said:
and that would go on to explain why their revolution turns out to be such shit.
I am having mixed feelings about this.
Personally, they picked a really bad time period. George Washington and the Founding Fathers could not have been Templars unless they were really, really good actors. Their personal beliefs are in contrast.
Second, if they turn this into a "Native Americans versus Settlers" scenario I will rage. It just feels a little forced.
I have no problem with a Native American protaginast, but if you don't have a few good settlers in there it's going to seem preachy.
For example, the frontiermen in Tennessee and other border state had skills similar to the indians. Why can't they be Assasin's too?
Ubisoft is treading a very fine line with this one.

i will buy this if they drop everything relating to desmond, that bullshit space conspiracy, and anything that isnt about a gang of assassins ruining people shit.
but i know it wont so...fuck it. this series jumped shark long ago.

actually, not quite, the natives were for the most part neutral because the British treated them worse than the french and Spanish, really more fought AGAINST the British.godofslack said:
