I stopped caring long ago.

I got into the series around the time III was being promoted and I had pretty much burned myself out on the entire franchise by the time it released. I still picked it up (and I later picked up Black Flag once it had dropped in price), but I really don't have much of an urge to play III and Black Flag, let alone even bother with Rogue, Unity or Syndicate.
I liked the entries that I did play, but they were just too similar mechanically to each other to the point that I lost interest. I don't know if the latter entries change things – I've heard about the naval sections of Black Flag, but I've also heard complaints that every other part of the game is just the same as its predecessors – but most of the marketing material just looks like what I've already played.
3 is my favorite, i cared about syndicate at start bit not much anymore.
| Fei-Hung said: I hated 1, loved 2, didn't buy Revelations or Brotherhood because they felt like AC2.5 and 2.75. I really disliked AC3, but loved AC:BF. Was put off Unity with the reviews, but bought it a year later and really enjoyed it. AC is a mixed bag for me. It is has never been consistent for me to warrant a day one purchase and the yearly release has killed of any interest I would have had for the game as it becomes too much to often. It is almost as if Ubisoft killed the novelty and excitement for it by flooding the market with annual releases. I think Ubisoft would have been far better off doing a year of AC and a year of PoP, giving each dev team enough time to create and polish each game and leave enough time for gamers not to lose interest. |
@bolded. This idea is perfect! Getting a steady stream of Prince of Persia and Assassin's Creed would add so much more diversity. The releases would not be overly frequent, yet both franchises would receive steady support. Fans of each series would not have to wait to long, and they would not get burned out by the oversaturated Assassin's Creed market.
The pace they are going now - Prince of Persia is practically dead because they have completely ignored this franchise, and Assassin's Creed has reached the point of stagnation. Sure there will always be people that will like the series, but for the most part, the series is likely to keep plummeting in sales if they do not change their stance on Assassin's Creed in the near future.
I pretty much stopped caring after Brotherhood. I did play AC3 when it was free on PS+ but that just made me not care about the series even more. I think I'm just really fed up of the western setting of the series. It was good during AC2 but after that got really boring playing in an American/European backdrop.
I would however love to see a Japanese setting during the warring periods. That could be something truly amazing.
Kinda. I mean, I don't care about Syndicate. But since the IP has potential I'll always be lurking waiting for a comeback. If the series continue its sales decline I bet Ubisoft will get their shit right eventually.
Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Still playing ACIV and loving it. Didn't care much for AC3. Played these for the first time on WiiU of all places. Not really interested in any of the newer AC games as their technical quality is obviously and overall polish is lower than ACIV on WiiU. Unacceptable!
I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
Assassin's Creed is dead for me.
Ubisoft has killed it with his on hands.
