The Animus and the first civ stuff made the Desmond sequences suck in AC3. It's like Ubisoft did not want to use Desmond they only gave us 1 and a half month to time span in AC3. They gave themselves too short of a time span we mostly use the animus letting Desmond not doing anything good despite this being his last game. He didn't have any character devolpment and his build up was all hype.
