I was already a little burnt out on AC, but now that I've seen the cover of the game, I might just skip it. Do they really think an assassin could blend into the American Revolution dressed like that? I think not.

Yeah, it's weird. I wonder if it's more symbolic, like in the game your assassin wouldn't wear that clothing so as to blend in, but the showing of it on the cover shows that he carries on the spirit of the assassins?

Who knows, it probably is what your character will wear if you take Ubisoft into consideration. :mellow:

I love American History so I am interested in AC3. Unfortunately, that means I have to play Brotherhood and Revelations. I was pretty worn out on Ezio after 2 so this could be an uphill battle...

It does look cool and it might just be symbolic as Jason said. That being said, I think you should wait and give it a chance before you try to push it off, solely based on the costume. I mean the game itself defies "reality" so if you can accept that you should be able to deal with that aspect.

If you are simply bored of the game that's another story but a costume shouldn't be that much of a deterrent.

If it's symbolic, I might still be cool with the game. I took a break from Revelations and still need to finish that up.

It'd be cool to have good ol Ben Franklin create your assassin gear like Leonardo did in the previous games.

I really am unsure why they decided on colonial america. To me, he looks so out of place with a white hoodie and an ax while the solider are in their red coat with the wig and guns. I probably am wrong but I haven't seen this guy use the hidden dagger yet. Maybe the ax will be his new main weapon?
