Where Assassin's Creed Should Go Next

Forbes writes: Assassin’s Creed 3 is out, and Ubisoft’s sprawling, if inconsistent, look at the beginnings of the United States is one of the best

games of the holiday season. But there’s no rest for the wicked – this is an annualized franchise, and the team is likely hard at work on the next game already. Now that the Revolutionary War is out of the way, the entire unimaginable parade of weirdness that is early American history is available to Ubisoft, and here’s where I think Connor should go next. (Assassin's Creed III, PC, PS3, Xbox 360)

What about Australia. I don't really know any significant history at that time about australia, but it would suit as a nice location.
Or the french revolution although I think that was before the american revolution

Nope, the French Revolution was -after- the American Revolution. One of the things that makes the American Revolution so important was that it marked the beginning of the democratic movement that would sweep across the rest of the world.

(French Revolution began 1789, American Revolution ended 1783).

The French Revolution would be the ideal setting for the next iteration of the AC series, as it occurs within the same time-frame and would be well-suited to explore the same themes (despotism, liberty, revolution, corruption). Not to mention there are many, many historical figures present that people can't seem to get enough of--Napoleon Bonaparte for starters. Also: Marie Antoinette, Voltaire, Louis XVI, etc., etc.

It was a volatile, chatoic time period. It would be -ideal-.

Not to mention the fact that, with the new wilderness the Anvil Next engine can handle, they'd actually be able to do the French Countryside justice.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS!!
Honestly I think they will go to present day or the future, just based of the ending. I think the story will revolve around stopping the threat implied at the end of 3.

The ending was absolutely awful though.
MattyG  +   199d ago
I loved the ending of Connor's story, and was really pumped for Desmond's ending, but it was incredibly anticlimactic. And yes, awful.

Connor had a great ending... desmond? Not so much

My guess is the games will follow around a new character in order to stop _________ from ________since ______ is _______

I kinda wish they do a little more with connor, but new settings bring new gameplay

Hoping for occupied India, or feudal japan

Assassins Creed: Walmart

Creeping around the store and hiding in stacks or 25% discount off goods.

If they milk it enough it just might become Assassin's Creed: Walmart- hiding at the bottom of the bargain bin. I kid, I kid.
