He looked like Altair AND Ezio, and trust me, this aint no Asian face (is Japan Asia, I dunno ) . Trust me, there will not be an Assassins Creed in Japan, and with the Assassins clothes all looking similiar, they just don't remotely look Japanese potentially even. Trust me, Japan is not gonna happen, plus, it's predictable. I'd even go far enough to say ACIII won't be in Japan 100%.

I don't really see the reason for the 100% it won't be in Japan.. I dunno about you but when I hear "Assassin" I think Japan. I think it has a high chance of being there, I know that being AC II came out, there were rumors that the next AC will feature the Ming dynasty in China and people didn't think of it that way, besides, it still can be a female assassin and doesn't have to look a lot like Desmond anyways.Both Altair and Ezio aren't exactly copies of Desmond in my eyes anyways. |

Exactly, and I don't think Ubisoft would really want predictability in their very successful franchise. It's done rather well, and to give the game a complete different feel of Japan wouldn't work, you have to think would it work in terms or production. I doubt it would be a girl because the movement and facial characteristics are essential to the game, that is why movement wasn't re-created for the character Ezio, he moves exactly like both Altair AND Desmond, it's entirely the point. Same push, same walk, same run, same fricken roll, that Japanese lady will be very masculine my friend .The only way Japan would work is if one of his decendants travelled to Japan and became an Assassin over there. He aint being all Ninja like Assassin, telling you now. Edited by The Outsider, Tue Jan 26, 2010 10:13 pm.

Look man, I really don't want to make this a big deal. All I'm trying to say is that the "Desmond/Altair/Ezio don't look Asian lololol" arguement is weak and unsupported, and to denounce the possiblity of AC3 taking place in Japan using said arguement is insane. But I digress. As long as AC3 is good, I could care less about whether or not Japan is involved. @SmitanSaxon: I agree; the only strong reason that Altair and Ezio look like Desmond is to show their shared bloodline, especially since Desmond is the main character. However, your theory regarding what's on the Codex does sound somewhat possible, given the power the Apples possess. Another theory I have is that maybe the Animus is purposefully making Desmond's ancestors look like him to establish the ancestor he's observing.

You don't think I'm arguing do you , 'cause I'm not, I'm just quite simply saying I 'personally' don't think it will happen, and you gotta see the reason why it can also, well, not happen. I've stated other reasons than his face . The way you started your reply made it seem like I'm gettin all pissed. And me too, so long as they make it work, I couldn't care less. If it's involved for the sake of it, then I'll be angry. But if it works, like I know anything they do will be anyway, then I'm happy .

That is the same explanation I have thought of with the Japanese setting. However the problem is the timeline. Ezio's final assassination took place in 1499. The Europeans didn't arrive in Japan until the mid-1500s. And only a few decades later was Japan isolated by the Tokugawa. So unless one of Ezio's children or grandchildren were able to get to Portugual, because they had the most dealings with the Japanese, then for some reason sail to Japan and get caught up in a plot involving the Piece of Eden. Also they probably wouldn't be trained by an Assassin over there, Ezio would most likely do it for them. Thats just my opinion, far-feched thought it is but so is Desmond having a Japanese ancestor. |

tbh i'd say that in AC3 it would just be about Desmond himself, may seem a bit basic idea but with different things happening in ac2 it seems likely to me i do like the theories that people are coming up with though ![]() Edited by Li_An_Di, Wed Jan 27, 2010 12:35 pm.

There are lots of games coming soon and I dont want to spend money on the DLC, so only way I am getting the first one is if someone can confirm that you can kick a guard on the flying part and it will unlock a trophy. *looks at LDZ* you be my patsy, yes?

changed >_> despite there hardly being any spoiler but nm ![]() anyway, the second one was awesome, i hope whatever they do for the third game will be great. With different things being mentioned i can't see it being set in japan but it may be possible if like others have said, a decendent of ezio went there. Would be some interesting weapons if it was however about the faces all looking the same Spoiler: click to toggle

http://xboxlive.ign.com/articles/106/1063749p1.html from IGN's review of the DLC. and that is basically the only reason I want to buy it. But he is kind of right, 4 bucks just for another chance at the trophy. I suppose there still is the mission though.

Well, I downloaded the Battle of Forli. Just about an hour of gameplay for 4 bucks, not exactly worth it for something that could have been part of the game in the first place, but I got the platinum trophy now, so Im happy about that ![]() With PSN making you add a minimum amount of funds of 5 dollars, in reality this dlc costs me that, since I dont have anything really to do with 1 dollar on the store. |

Yeah, I haven't downloaded it yet, but I heard the content wasn't much. I think one of the things added was that you could now use the Flying Machine whenever you wanted to in Romagna, right? Or did I read that wrong? |

No, its true. Its in the upper, right far tower. It gives you another chance at getting the trophy/achievement for kicking a guard while using it. Its the only one that is missable in the story. It happened to me, so I was able to get platinum today because of it

Desmnds ancestors don;t have to look like him, like there is a big difference form Altair and Ezio, but the one thing they all have in common is the scar in the right cheek, so if the next one is in japan and turns out to be a female or male just have the scar so it roots back to Desmonds ancestry. I am not going to download the DLC even though i need the achievment ans they look fun, i just cba and sicne it costs koney which is worse so doubt ill ever get the achievement, but im not really bothered about achievements just paying the game how i like is fine for me

i mentioned above a theory about why the look the same in a spoiler tag, involves the animus but if interested have a read. What Smitansaxon wrote about the info is correct but i'm not 100% sure whether it is the main reason although we'll never know until it is explained in the game or by producers xD also Spoiler: click to toggle

Played the DLC recently and beated it, even got the achievement that l wanted. The DLC was fun but short, l really wish Ubisoft can expand it. "l have the instrument to make more" line was funny but at the same time sexy.
