Alex Hutchinson, creative director for Assassin’s Creed 3, does not like your ideas for the franchise. In an interview with OXM, he said: “People on the internet suggest the most boring settings,” Hutchinson said.” The three most wanted are WWII, feudal Japan and Egypt. They’re kind of the three worst settings for an AC game.”
Sorry internet, I hope you didn’t have your heart set on any of those locations for sequels. One setting that may help you patch that hole in your heart is India. Assassin’s Creed 3 writer Cory May is really interested in making a game that takes place in that exotic location. Surprisingly enough, Hutchinson agrees, saying “I would too. I’d really love to do the Raj.”
With that crushing news in mind, how excited would you be for a game set in India? What are your thoughts about the locations that Hutchinson dismissed without pulling any punches?
