One thing that I wonder about future settings is if Ubisoft will drop the tree parkour at some point. Now, I don't hate it (in fact, quite the opposite), but I don't want them to force the ability on a character just because it's new, especially if they cannot fully explain why said character can do it.
I noticed that Edward knowing tree parkour isn't fully explained in AC4. I don't think privateers climb trees on a daily basis, and I doubt climbing masts can teach you how to navigate through trees as well as Ed does. With Connor, they at least show you that he used to climb trees while hunting when he was young.
Like I said, I don't want tree parkour to disappear forever, but I also don't want every single assassin from now, knowing tree parkour without adequate explanations.
