User blog comment:AssassinRome/Assassins in Japan?/@comment-1824113-20120805204119

I know it would make a hell of a lot of sense to put the Assassins in Japan, but I reckon the reason Corey and Co. are against the idea is because, well... It'd be too easy.

I mean, it's just that ninjas and well, Japan in general, practically saturates and is somehow above everything else from Asia (if that makes any sense). As much as Ubisoft would like to be historically accurate and whatever, I get the feeling that their desire to buck the trend and head to exotic places no one has been to would override the temptation to do something familiar.

Just saying.
