To people who reduce him to "WHERE IS CHARLES LEE?", yes, then he is boring. But just because he doesn't have a lady on each arm, no winning smile or natural charm doesn't mean he is boring. He is hard-working, idealistic, initially naive but later cynical, due to his life just being absolute crap (fails to save his mother from burning to death, gets used by the Patriots, forced to kill his childhood friend, loses his father figure, kills his actual father who, despite his generally douchebag behaviour, he still wants to make peace with it in the hope they can work together).

Unlike Ezio's games, the sides of good of evil aren't plain and obvious. That's what makes ACIII and Connor interesting imo.
