Assassin's Creed was originally going to be a trilogy only, lol.

So it was suppose to be that it starts with Assassin's Creed 1 and Desmond learning his history.

Assassin's Creed 2 and Desmond getting stronger.


Now here's the thing. Assassin's Creed 3 originally was going to have you play as Desmond as an assassin in the future and they weren't going to do that past history crap anymore.

Everybody knows this. What point are you trying to make by saying it after all these years in the forums of a platformer?

I did not know this. But then I never really researched this series. I just know the franchise is starting to get stale, imo black flags was the last decent AC game, if they wanted it to be epic they should have ended it a trilogy with one or two spinoffs, instead of turning it into a CoD like franchise and pumping out games every year.

It all started with Ac2's success. Ac was brainchild of
Patrice Désilets. To ac, he was what Kojima was to metal gear. He visioned the series to be a trilogy, with games the exact way op described. Ac1 and 2 was on the point. But 2's success made ubisoft greedy. They insisted on annualization and down the line, Patrice was fired. He joined THQ and began working on a game called 1666. Ubisoft promptly bought out THQ, cancelled the Project of 1666 and fired Patrice.. again. Right now, Patrice made his own studio, Pnache Studios and working on a game called Ancestors:Humankind Odyssey. I'm very interested in it too.

But it's a long time ago. There is no point crying over spilt milk. I moved on.
