I'm basing it on the fact that great writers are much harder to come by than any other section of a game development team. And I think Patrice understands that, The writers of AC Brotherhood have been nominated for awards at the American writers guild, who wouldn't them. The AC franchise would have not be half as successful had t not been for those guys, and I think we all realize this. I know we all appreciate everything in the AC universe, the graphics, the sandbox style etc... But it is the story rich, historically accurate, everything considered and creative writing of these guys which make it what it is, this is hard to come by in the gaming universe, its what makes AC unique. So that's why I think it Corey May and some other writers that Patrice has his eyes on.
