I don't mind ports or micro transactions for that matter. I don't see why bringing the game to another console is ever a bad thing, just as long as they port it proper.
As far as micro transactions go I like them if done properly. GW2 did them well, it never felt required but added some nice cosmetics to your characters. Its not good when it feel like you have to buy it just to beat the game, looking at you timesaver packs, I feel like companies put an obsessive amount a collectables around and make it a grind to them just so you pay the 4.99 that tells you where they all are so you don't spend hours upon hours wandering around, I thought AC4 was guilty of this I spent about 10 bucks on timesaver packs.
Basically in the case of AC4- micro trans to get Black Sails, fine. Micro trans to make all "secrets" show on your map, not cool.
