Poll: Assassin's Creed III

He won't be. Every numbered entry to the series has a new time period.

You are all talking about how Altair's bloodline ended up in these places, but have any of you considered it may have nothing to do with bloodline.
Notice the fact that Altair, Ezio and Desmond all look identical, and all have the same scar on the lip. Also notice that Ezio was referred to as Desmond at the end of AC II.
Perhaps Altair/Ezio/Desmond is an anomaly similar to Neo in The Matrix, or perhaps he is always created to be in existence, only one at any given time, but to be there, watching over the Templars without knowledge of his purpose.

Altair is repeatedly mentioned to be Ezio's great-great-grandfather. Plus subject 16 is also a descendant of Ezio. Just sayin'.

They should make it about Desmond now. And given the fact that it's set in a time where guns and lasers point at you, I suggest that Ubisoft make the true right move and make it a real stealth game, rather than a game where sneaking is mostly optional.

But I think the beginning will have Ezio in AC3, thanks to these spoilerific reasons:

Spoiler: Massive spoiler ahoy!

1. Ezio returned to the sanctuary for an unexplained reason. If they gave it that bit of attention, I'm sure we'll need the answer.
2. At the end of AC3, after he took a stab at Lucy, Abstergo came in (or it sounded like Abstergo, cause it sure as hell wasn't a British accent) and put him in the Animus. If I may remind, the dialog went something like this.
- "He's in shock, put him in the Animus!"
- "But the Animus did this to him!"

Which means that at the beginning of AC3, we will probably be in an unexplained time, with Desmond having no information about why he's in the Animus, and hopefully escaping by waking up and stabbing the first people he sees in the throat.

Although, the reason that you can't leave the Animus after the free roam is for exactly that reason, so we'll see. But I still propose that point 1 should be explained.
