I had a nice debate with a friend of mine last night regarding this topic.
During my winter break I have gotten into AC Origins and while I think it is a well-made game, I can't help but shrug and think that Ubisoft has taken quite literally zero chances with this franchise in the last 8 years.
My friend vehemently disagreed citing the RPG progression system, weapon class system, and a few other things. While some of this is new to the AC franchise, none of this is new to this game type. If anything, it feels like window dressing that they backed in to copied from other games.
I still see so much damn potential for this franchise, but they seem to be either unable or unwilling to take an innovative step forward.
