... I'm forced to admit, this is actually what's got me so interested. To have the most feared pirate of all time speak in awe/fear of this new MC... yeah, sounds like he's going to be badass.

i was under the impression that the series ended with the death of Desmond miles, but now it is more than clear that Assassin's creed has become a universe of itself, with stories of different assassins and their descendants

About the game, first of all this is one of the best trailers of the Assassin's Creed games, a whole new world, a whole new background, and the MC is the best looking and totally badass and blonde!,
Pirates and Assassins, very exciting, the MC seems to have a complete different moveset and weapons, and most of all the game seems very very adventurous and there is also some fanservice.
very much looking forward to this

Turns out that is by some of core staff who worked on Revelations, so I would expect it to be just as awful as that game was.
Don't get your hopes up, guys.

I kinda liked Revelations...

I like the trailer.

It was nowhere near as good as 2 or Brotherhood though, and the devs lied during interviews about various game components. I expect them to be doing the same here.
Note that they claim here that transitions between sailing and landing on an island will be "seamless". I will be very surprised if they actually are in the final product.

I liked Revelations, but that obviously comes from my Ottomano-phile bias.

Don’t man the harpoons quite yet — People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has something to say.
Ubisoft started removing the cloak from Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag today. The new open-world action game stars a pirate assassin who sails the high seas, plunders for booty, and harpoons whales.

Eh, I don't think PETA making wild accusations of what is being done in this game is worthwhile discussion material. It's just a bunch of extremist idiots doing what they usually do.

I also expect great things from this, especially that I'm now both feet wet into the Assassin's Creed universe. The ideas of Pirates and Assassins look great to me; Black Beard telling the story was a good idea too. And BTW, fanservice is always welcome and I really missed that since the younger Ezio timeline.

Still, I must admit I was first surprised they would go a little backwards in time as well as going into quite a familiar setting considering how people were expecting a lot for the new story to revolve around countries like Japan or China. For my own opinion, I was hoping a lot that the next game would take place in Japan around the Bakumatsu period considering the major changes around that time (traditions vs. modernity). Perhaps it is for another year.

the AC universe does goes around different countries, but when we consider China or Japan, there in the historic times, we get samurai's and warlords, but i think the biggest problem with these countries will be the styling of the MC assassin,i can't see how the assassin might go jumping from one roof to another doing parkour in a kimono or a yukata,
and if he gets dressed a ninja i think the series shits itself then and there
and the hood is the signature dresscode of the assassin.
even the weapons will be very different non-AC style,
but the let's see where the universe takes us

Can't PETA focus their energy on other things aside from this game?

[mystogan]

this game is going to be best and Edward Kenway is just too awesome

[JagdPanther]

Really, really looking forward to seeing this on PS4. I skipped on getting AC3 on release because I knew I could get it on sale at Christmas on Amazon... if I can wait for that, I can wait for a PS4 release.
