Man, not only this is not the last Assassin's creed game, it's not even the third one that is canon. C'mon... "number after title" means little if nothing at all in gaming nowadays. It's not a trilogy, AC2 alone is a trilogy!

Personally, i'm not sure how this one will play out. I enjoyed Broterhood a bit more than i did revelations... and to be honest, i expected Ubisoft to ramp up the game story instead of dragging it out like this...

My bet is that Desmond is going to interact with Connor in a "Altair/Ezio" style which will then branch out into the "future AC game" everybody is waiting.

They considered having a female lead in Assassin's Creed 3 but decided it wouldn't be believable.

They can't let go of that facial hair. You gotta have the facial hair (also Assassins need testosterone to resist the Pieces of Eden, trufax).

i always get "Jedi Feelings" when i hear about that

"Sure there are female jedis... they are out there... somewhere..... doing.. important jedi stuff"

We saw plenty of female Jedi in revenge of the sith.
It just so happened they were all getting shot by clones at the time, but still!

Aren't there statues of a few female assassins in that little... secret underground room in Assassin's Creed 2?

Also isn't Lucy an assassin?

So how is it "Unbelievable" when they've established that it has actually happened?

As it always is with series like these, it's rare (and hardly well when done) when they change a male protagonist and bring a female one down center stage. When they address issues like these it's always something "to the side" like "Oh yeah, that one character is also that..." or "Oh sure,there were lots of these... back when." and stuff like that.

As for "unbelievable" in the context of changing a Desmond descendant into a female, i really see no problem. Hell... most of the Women in AC2 had more balls than almost every male in the game... the could easily write in a believable character.

My guess is that they think the fans wouldn't accept that a male character could have a direct female descendant down the genetic line...

but then again Desmond's dad said he didn't have the right genes to use The Apple in Revelations.

also Yeah Fuck you Nolan North. You're a great voice actor and all putting great personality to a lot of good characters... but GOD DAMN IT WE DON'T NEED FIFTY OF YOU EVERY GAME.

From the few short lines of that interview male over female pretty much makes sense. A female assassin would be neat, but the fact that they're putting serious thought into it means I wouldn't count the notion out. I'm not caught up on the series but there were female assassins in Brotherhood, no?
