Brotherhood was good but it's time for a new protagonist/hero, a new timeline and setting. Paris or London during the Napoleonic Wars? Vienna for the Austrian Succession or China's Boxer Rebellion? Ubi's options seem endless but they need a carefully documented crises in a city they can faithfully recreate. I'll continue buying the IP late when prices drop but SecondWar's comments on Revelations are disturbing. If they're not careful ACII will remain the high water mark.

You mind elaborating on this?

Sorry.  Just noticed this.  You were saying it was a cut below the rest of the series and might have been based on a portable build.  I'll be getting it eventually anyway but with KoA: Reckoning, ME3 and Witcher 2 lined up it can wait for a while.  I find it disturbing the IP seems headed in the wrong direction.  I'm sure Just Dance is just great but AC is a major franchise for Ubi and a lot closer to my ideal game.  No offense intended.

That was just my opinion of the game, I have a friend who thinks its just as good as the rest of the series. I enjoyed the AC I and AC II because of the exploration side and the sandbox aspects. Brotherhood got away with having only one location as it was bigger that any previous one and included didfferent envrionments. Constantinople in Revalations looked and felt the same all the time and the only other location is some random cave city that you go to for one chapter, which just looked and felt boring. For me the storyline didn't compare to the previous games and felt more linear.

Its fairly likely if Ubisoft preview the new came in the same way they did AC II, with the brand new protagonist, a new setting with a refreshed design and new weapons that are more inspiring and useful that the pointless and confusing bombs in Revelation then I'll have completely forgotten why I was starting to go off the series. As it is now, its slipped from my list of favourite franchises.
