Massacre 7646 Report post Posted October 22, 2012 Well, aside from WWII or something, they're running out of time periods. They'll have to go farther back again, or do a modern game at some point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted October 22, 2012 Why start with a new present day protag? Desmond is an established character so why don't they just use him? Also the thing I missed from BH and Revelations was the glyphs scattered around the maps. Some of those were a challenge to complete, and they sort of filled in the gaps in history that you didn't get to see in the game. Plus they added that element of illuminati-style "uncovering the truth that they don't want you to see" to the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted October 22, 2012 yea, i skimmed past those things in brotherhood and revelations because i was renting the games and didn't have the time... that's a good point though, i should probably read up on those... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of the devs shunned the idea of a feudal Japan setting a while back, I can see why due to linking in with historical events, but i'd still liked to have seen it. China might be a good alternative, not as isolated as Japan is/was back then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

China might be a good alternative, not as isolated as Japan is/was back then. the only way to accomplish that would be too forget the animus, which i think is a brilliant plot point, so i hope they dont do that.

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted October 23, 2012 End of AC III, Desmond does his thing, saves the world, then the screen fades out like when you exit the animus. Turns out Desmond was a simulation too, the Templars found another way to take over, they used Desmond's memoriess to find out what happened to the Apple after 2012, and you're really in a dystopian cyberpunk world. That'd be how they would set up a game set in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted October 23, 2012 bleh, doesn't matter who it is, if the story is done right, and the atmosphere is good, it'll be decent... there's not much competition for a pretty good adaptation so the bar is set quite low ... silent hill is pretty much the only one i can think of...

I just thought, do you think Apple have a POE and are using it to induce a mass paralysis and love of their shitty products in the populace? It would explain the iPod, iPad and iPhone phenomena of the past decade and how they have been so successful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No way Titanic and Avatar should have made that much money. Also, Pieface has a very weak PoE. That's why he's still a mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
