Exactly! If they base the movie on the game, fans will be dissapionted because they have to see the story all over again, and the movie will be compared with the game, getting bad critics. And non-fans won't really apreciate the story if it can't stand alone. They should do a new story that non-fans will catch up easily, while it still reflects the canon mythos of AC, just like they did with the comics. Daniel and Desmond are two different stories, but you could still feel that connection between the comics and the games.
