    I knew there'd be a game set in the French Revolution sooner or later. Seemed like the next step to go after ACIII.

    If I am to believe a previous leak AC3 was meant to be set in the French revolution at first, they changed their mind midway. I' m not surprised it eventually popped up again, it would have been a pity to just throw everything away.

    I wonder what the other two could be. Victorian era London would be quite interesting from an architectural standpoint.

    The character they are showing looks more female in stature and proportions, which I hope to be the case. Unless they finally decided to make a more slim gentleman unlike their usual super buff modeled assassins.

    Im not really thrilled about the French Revolution, I'd rather see a WWII AC but that could probably be more controversial both due to the Nazis and the fact that swords and blades would be literally just decoration since everyone would have automatic rifles and shooting the **** out of your ass as you climb to escape.

    I mean, all things aside, i'll see what they plan on doing for AC unity.

    I would be thrilled about a female role. I agree it does look feminie.

    Here's to hoping that Comet is in the Ashikaga Shogunate as it was hinted in the same place that the French Revolution was in Black Flag.

    Oooh, I am still mesmerised by those smexy graphics.

    I haven't completed an AC game yet (I played the first one but found the controls quite confusing and just never continued it- I always thought it was better designed for PC and I had it for PS3) but they do look like a lot of fun.

    I like the idea of it being set in Revolutionary France and a female protagonist would be marvelous!

    I kinda figured the new assassin was not female. I'm guessing the leaner look of this new character is the choice that went along with the "parkour up" and "down" buttons. Maybe this assassin is faster and a lot more agile than his predecessors. Besides, it's not as if we've never had a playable female assassin before.

    If we are to believe the leaks from a few months back he' s called Arnaud (which is a 100% male name in France).

    True enough, that was what I thought after seeing the trailer.

    I like the logo, not sure if it'll be the official one, but using a guillotine in it is pretty clever from an artist point of view.

    Ever since ACIII ended, the series has felt like it doesn't know where it's going. Suddenly Caribbean Pirates, next French Revolution, nothing links them and this game has been in development for three years? So around the time Revelations was released this was being conceived. And what's with the Unity subtitle? Is this a spin off? But it's a full game like the main ones, so like Brotherhood or Revelations? But those two were connected by time and Ezio... I'm looking too much into this, but it feels like they're churnning out anything now.

    I seriously don't care about Europe as a location anymore, we've been climbing those building styles since ACII. This'll be the fifth game. I won't lie, I want London, climbing Big Ben would be epic next to the Thames in a foggy evening. But I don''t care anymore. We have the rich wide world and you stick us with white Europeans AGAIN? I was really looking forward to the rumoured AC set in India, damned shame.

    Notre Dame looks epic, looking forward to the climb.

    It amazes me how Ubisoft is so organized, they say they have been making this game for the past three years , the keep releasing 2 AC games every year.. imagine how many ACs are being made NOW? Imagine if the next game is a failure XD? Then they would have like 9 AC ready with nobody to buy them ç.ç... heads would roll!

    I like french revolution, but I am a little disapointed that they will not go with the freedom of slaves, It was highly sugested at AC III and Liberation, and they forgot about it in Black flag, it is not the game the people was expecting about ninjas and samurais ( neither the Brazilian one, that I sincerely think was vapor promisse).

    Also I was playing AC 4 (and everybody problably already saw this), and found this:

    Sorry It is in portuguese, but even by looking you can see some amazing ages for AC to explore inherited from Desmond's mon side Xoguns, Egypt!

    I believe they have something in the vicinity of four teams dedicated to making AC games, with one of them being the MAIN team that pushes concepts forward (i.e. the twema that makes the numbered games)

    If I recall correctly
    the comet was stoped because Desmond traded his "life" with Juno, while the comet(or it was a solar thing?) was not stoppable by the ancient civilization in their short time they had, they imagined that humans would stand the chance because we had more time than they had (because they were already short in numbers), while most of those "Gods" gave up, Juno didn't and used the same technology that put her husband's consiousness into a machine to put hers, by receiving Desmond's life she was able to be brought back to life, and promised that she already had the power to stop that "event"... most likely she is telling the truth, as it would not make sense to her come back to life only to die after the "event", if she thinks she can stop it, she will.

    Thats of course creates this new villian Juno for us to defeat, as she will enslave mankind, but after ending ACIII we are able to get "pivotal things" that when are all assembled says that "we are conected to the cloud" (probably cloud computting).. that being said Desmond is in a state similar with 16, we learn through AC revelations and AC IV , that Desmond absorved him and learned all his life in one second, probably the person in abstergo using 17's sample will syncronize with Desmond, thus becoming him (even in a new body), or just will play his role in the next game... so there will be a Desmond X Juno match at the end
