It's bullshit.
But I like it. An Aztec setting would be amazing and perfectly in tune with the new RPG style they're using for AC. Imagine walking through Tenochtitlan... *chef's kiss*

I'd be willing to return to AC for an Aztec setting.

Don't use/link ACG though, he's trash.

This guy is banned here

Iirc he's banned as a member and for content but not as a source for leaks and stuff like this. Maybe it would be better just to have text in the OP though.

Wrt the news, sounds like a setting with a lot of potential, totally expect Ubisoft to not do anything with it.

So…Valhalla with an Aztec skin? Gross.

I'd love to see a reboot that brings AC back to its roots. Give me a modem take on Renaissance Italy.

You know I used to really enjoy playing Assassins Creed. It was a comfort food franchise, but after the style change I've written off the franchise.

I do not want to nor have any desire for hundred hour long Assassins Creed games. They aren't that good.

You know what i like that idea. I'd really like to see their Origins/Oddyssey-style rendition the Aztec. Could be good. Also a lot of possibilities for storytelling as I don't think we have a lot of tales and storys and characters that *have* to show up (like in, say, Ancient Greece).

so who are the baddies/templars/whatever they're called now in this setting?
Colonizers, Spanish, Portugese people?

I swear they're determined to set these games in less and less parkour-apt locations. There's barely any point to the mechanic anymore that defined the series 10 years ago.

If its anything like Origins = Might be interested.

If its anything like Valhalla = hard pass.

Fuck all that bloat. Its useless.

This is the next AC game. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...w-assassin-s-creed-game-to-help-fill-schedule

Would be some wacky time travel shenanigans if Basim went to the Aztec Empire.

I've also heard about the two main games in development as part of AC Infinity, and neither of them are Aztec.

Maybe there's some super secret spinoff in production somewhere, but I haven't heard of it!

Ah, so it's a spin-off of Valhalla kinda? Like Freedom Cry before it, or bigger in scope?

Going back to the old formula might help them push these games out quicker. Mechanically simpler to deal with.

Wouldn't surprise me if they do South America before East and South East Asia.
It's an interesting environment that hasn't been done to death already having those mesoamerican civilizations and basically having the Spanish roaming around fucking everything up is more in line with Assassin's Creed vibe.

I loved Origins, made it 15 hours into Odyssey and uninstalled Valhalla after 1 1/2 hours. If they don't change but put even more bloat and mtx into it, I'm out.

Similarly I loved Origins, Odyssey took me a while to get into but ended up with over 100 hours and Valhalla.... well I basically speed ran the main story line as I didn't want to waste my money but didn't enjoy at all.

Honestly don't like the direction of the franchise, they need to take a timeout and rethink like they did with Origins but I doubt that'll happen because money.

This would be something that I would play. The bloat in these games though has to be toned-down. I skipped Valhalla because of it.

So him proudly saying his CP2077 review will not contain "Trans shit no one cares about" isn't worthy of a general content ban? You're happy to platform him?

If you wanna link us to any examples of things that he's said that might make us reconsider then the staffs DMs are always open.

All I can tell you right now is that, as of this moment, it's been raised a number of times and the line has always been that ACG was banned from posting on the forum but we haven't banned his content or reviews.

I haven't seen that specific post of his so feel free to fire it over to one of the staff, although it might be the specific content that he was banned from the forum for. I honestly don't remember without asking around.

I'm sure Ubisoft intends to set an Assassin's Creed in modern or even futuristic times eventually but they are probably keeping that in their back pocket for as long as they possibly can.

they might only play that card when sales start to stagnate, as it would assuredly reinvigorate interest in the series.
