I don't think Rogue will be a bad game. I loved AC:BF (And I loved AC:R). I think the difference, Anon, is that, our expectation are more realistic. We KNOW its the side project, that its fan appeasement and we know they are using AC:BF Mechanics as its base. The game by no means will be bad: If its base is the highly liked, popular successful ACIV, bearing in mind the above considerations, I accept that, and I am fine with that.

It is using what a high number of fans claim to be the "best" in the series as its base... and adding superficial and a number of mechanical changes to it, I don't see to much of a problem. Not because I am a sheep, or whatever... but because I don't expect them to give me an ACII/ACBF/ACU change for a side project on last gen consoles. Truthfully? more than anything, your expectations were a bit high to begin with.
