Yeah I hate AC3 because it's such a cool setting, great atmosphere and had the potential to be so much more than it was. What a great time period to screw the pooch on. Just think if AC3 was built the way Odyssey was and didn't have a shitty protagonist?
Agreed. While I don't think it was rushed necessarily (it was massive), it felt like they weren't sure what they wanted to focus on. They dipped their toes into a lot of mechanics, but didn't do many all that well. Plus, Connor couldn't have been much more boring. Stoic just doesn't work in a game like this.
I'm hopeful that some of these settings are revisited down the line, but probably not quite yet. There are still plenty of areas and time periods that haven't been touched. I know they're staying away from feudal Japan intentionally, which I agree with. I was thinking that India could be a fun surprise. The Sanskrit epics have a ton of content.
