I didn't know that the only time periods in history are the Third Crusade, the Renaissance, the Ottoman Empire, the American Revolution, the Golden Age of Piracy, Feudal Japan and World War II...

Frankly though, I'd rather see Assassin's Creed in World War II or Feudal Japan (the latter of which I do have a nice fascination for) than stay around colonial America, which Assassin's Creed III already showed, is not a perfect setting for the series' gameplay. They can finish Connor's story via comics, novels or short films. We didn't get a game with Flavia Auditore either, I don't see any appeal in a game with Connor's child; it would just be Assassin's Creed III 2.0, in a time period of little politicial or cultural upheaval, as most of it tempered down after the revolution ended.
