I am tired of Ubisoft releasing annual Assassin's Creed games.
They are just doing what CoD does now.
They should be ashamed.

Why should you care? Don't buy them if it bothers you. I fail to see how you could possibly be affected by them releasing a new game every year. They're good games that sell very well for Ubisoft.

[PsychoPsyops]

This is why they DO care.

Assassins Creed 3 sold over 12 million units. Gamers are telling them to keep releasing them every year rather than the other way around

I'm just unhappy because I think I'm the only one who didn't like the whole naval warfare aspect. I still did it though, I must haves me 100% completion in all AC games, I must

And I will still buy it even if they put you on Mars and make you fight zombie animals with lightsabers

Sheep.

Have you played the Assassin's Creed games? They improve the game every time a new one is released. The games are fantastic! Don't diss it till you tried it.

Assassins Creed 3 sold over 12 million units. Gamers are telling them to keep releasing them every year rather than the other way around

First of all, VGChartz[www.vgchartz.com] says it only sold 9.48 million copies. The same source says they sold 10.76 million copies of AC2. These are not factoring in digital sales.

According to that source, sales have diminished over the course of the annualized release schedule's implementation. So in effect gamers ARE telling them they don't want that schedule.

They just haven't done it in a high enough volume yet.

Thank you Tuskan.

The solution to your issue with Ubisoft has a simple solution, just vote with your wallet.

Pouty face, pouty face, pouty face.

The only beef I have with annual releases is that it makes the series incredibly difficult to get into. Thankfully I grabbed 1, 2 and Brotherhood for $5 a pop last sale...

If you always wait until they hit the $5 mark before buying them, are they still considered annual releases? Lol! Either way... it'll save me a ♥♥♥♥ ton of money and I'll get to enjoy the games at my own pace. ;-]

Why are you people turning this into a two sided feud?
I'm simply doing what Ubisoft wanted.

VGChartz is notoriously unreliable and as you say it doesn't include digital sales which increase year on year

This article quotes direct data from Ubisoft that says that over 12 million copies were shipped

Sales are certainly not dropping at all yet
