The Quit or Continue hosts take a look at the Assassin's Creed series to date.
With 2015 instalment, Assassin's Creed: Syndicate, getting a less than enthusiastic reception from us on its opening trailer, is the franchise running out of puff?

CWA Canada will “pursue every legal recourse” to protect our members at Ubisoft Halifax after the company announced today that it is shutting down the operation just three weeks after workers voted to unionize.

70 roles are affected at the Assassin’s Creed Rebellion studio.
Very sad news shame on Ubisoft, Also whats going on with the n4g website the webpages have issues loading for the past 2 months?
Funny how these sudden mass firings at major studios where employees unionized have nothing to do with union busting. Must be just a coincidence that it happens exactly the same way every single time.
Can't hate corporations enough. Society has such low standards, and when people wake up to it and try to push positive change that's when you realize the rich are the root of most our problems. Honestly so tiring to see just how much more comfortably we can all live and see others actively push against it.

VGC: "We tried Ubisoft’s in-game cloud AI project."
Take a break. Re-think the franchise. Come back fresh. Or just do what I did and not play the series for a couple of years. If Ubi won't take a break, you need to take one yourself.
These days games feel like horror franchises, getting more and more tired with each year.
The thing is they never took the Desmond story anywhere worthwhile and now every game is the same - albeit in a new bit of fancy dress.
Maybe a game that straddles eras to bring a few different timelines (including a Blade Runner-like future) into the one game?
This series is so far off track it's not even funny.
Linearly it would probably go to a world war--perhaps during assassination that starts the first or revolving around a plot to kill Hitler. It would at least "fit" but once guns go towards modern AC starts to lose everything interesting imo.
AC needs a break but more likely it will go further in the past again (or should if they keep AC alive--automatic weapons just would end up making it more of traditional stealth game).
The series needs a break
I'm wornout, and i can't bring myself to start Rogue.
