User blog comment:Slate Vesper/Assassinews 15-06-'13 — Three Assassin's Creeds in development and Patrice Désilets' lawsuit with Ubisoft/@comment-94.194.141.64-20130701105844/@comment-1888015-20130703222350

Preferably, I'd like to see it in one of six locations/continents:

Norway/Scandinavia - Vikings would be cool and a bulky Assassin with a badass fur pelt would not go amiss. Also, they have awesome axes. Would probably be a bit linear though.

The Orient (China/Japan) - As much as Hutchinson would like to dismiss the region, setting an AC game in the Orient would bring new culture and possible gameplay mechanics to the series. That, and considering Ubisoft has "always wanted to do pirates", it seems a little bit hypocritical to dismiss it just because some other games have done it. After all, if they wanted to "dispel the romaticization of pirates", I don't see how they can't incorporate the Orient in a new light.

India - Since Ubisoft seems to have a pseudo-anti-Britain boner as of late, I can see how Britain's colonialization of India may be fodder to base a game on. Or better yet, Ubisoft delving more into India's history without outside interference.

South America - AC3 gave a tiny cue to Brazil with the MMA tournament that Desmond had to infiltrate, and we're going to be exploring near to South America with Black Flag, so a deeper look into one of the countries' own history may provide some interesting experiences that many may not have considered before.

Africa - Same as the Orient. Also, given Ubisoft's forays into Russia with the comics, Italy, Turkey, North America and Syria, Africa is smack bang in the middle of Earth, so then we can rule it out for a while.

Britain - This isn't meant to be biased in any way, considering I'm English, but there are some nice periods in our history that can be used. Many people call out for Victorian England, which I suppose deals with the goth Mary Poppins-esque view of the era, but we also have the War of the Roses and the Gunpowder Plot, and even the invasion of the Romans, which helped bring about Boudica.
