I'll be the "AC Modern Day Storyline defender" again.

I like the modern day stuff. I like how it has an overarching narrative. I liked the Subject 16 puzzles in AC2 and Brotherhood and I liked sneaking around the Abstergo offices hacking poo poo in AC4. It's actually a major reason why I keep coming back each year.

Having said that, I get it's not for everyone. I thought AC4 did it best with keeping the mandatory modern-day stuff to a minimum, but having quite a bit of stuff to find if you wanted to.

But every time I see someone say "I wish they'd just give up on the animus stuff" I think "You can take it from my cold dead hands." :colbert:

Agreed. I can see why people don't like it and I can definitely think of more than a couple ways it could be better implemented, but the modern stuff is what makes the story actually interesting.

We have watch dogs.

Which is another reason why Ubisoft shouldn't do a game with cars.

Did anyone else find two dead soldiers (one British, one French) holding hands around 632, -446 in the North Atlantic? I found them while looking for Templar relics and was wondering if it was an easter egg or just something random.
