it ended in 3, they've been treading water ever since.
My interest died with Desmond.
yeah... for me I was willing to give black flag a chance to see if they would find a way to make a new series, maybe with a new current day plot, but nah. people seem to dislike the current day portion of those games but to me that was the main interest, along with the mythology...
black flag's current day portion was so goddamn awful, they turned abstergo into a parody of ubisoft? I don't even know what they were thinking... but it was so immersion breaking. completely killed my interest.
pirate stuff was fun, and it still had a nice plot twist near the beginning... but it was clear that the overall story was going nowhere so I just quit playing after that and decided that the series ended with 3.
Writing by committee doesn't tend to produce anything worthwhile.
