I'm so sick and tired of Assassin's Creeds with European settings.
Based on what I've seen on the Internet, with the exception of a poll here on the wiki that seemed rigged, most people would like to see a game in Japan. Those people are the ones who are likely, like me, tired of the same old European settings (and I consider America a European setting FYI, for the people who say it wasn't a European setting). An Asian setting, whether It be Japan, or even China, would be so refreshing, from the weapons, to the culture, to the style of the Assassin robes and style of fighting; I'd be so different from what we're used to.
If Ubisoft secretly doesn't want to make an Assassin's Creed in Japan because they consider Japan an unoriginal setting, I have three things for them:
- Your opinion shouldn't matter if the fans want it (besides the rigged poll here, I'd say at least half of the fanbase would like a game in Japan, and the other half would buy the game any way, like the people who said they wouldn't buy ACIV).
- Stop with your European obsession (though I can see why you would be obsessed with European settings, being that most of you are European anyway). It's getting old, IMO. Though I'd prefer an Assassin's Creed in Japan, I wouldn't mind a game set in Africa (Egypt preferably) either. I just want something refreshing gameplay-wise, visually, and culturally.
- If this is secretly your reason for not making an Assassin's Creed in Japan, you just contradicted the **** out of yourselves by making ACIV: Black Flag (lots or pirate games out there).
