    I think it was more because of time constraints. All altair parts were in Masyaf and very short, and its not like that because they wanted that i suppose.

    Funny story: My game glitched at that moment. The character was standing there, but his weapons were lying on the ground and it wasn't possible to kill him. I had to restart. Kind of ruined the moment.....

    OK, I had to sign in and post here. I got an email with this survey and clicked to complete the survey, whereupon I was directed to a page asking me for my age. I entered my age and was then sent to a page telling me that I was not eligible to complete the survey.

    I am really rather annoyed at this and did not figure Ubi to be quite so ageist. It appears I am considered too old to be able to hold a valid opinion on a game series I have spent a couple of hundred pounds on this year alone!

    Wow, too old? If you had been too young, I would have understood their reasons for turning you down, but too old? I realize Ubi is going for a certain target demographic, but that's part of the problem. They assume their audience to be people of a certain age who like certain games (like Uncharted). In my experience though, AC attracts a surprisingly diverse audience. Excluding fans based on their age seems like a really dumb decision in the case of this franchise.

    I really thought that I had left lying about my age behind many, many years ago

    I'd have thought they'd tread the waters of inspiration carefully after their previous attempt at imitating Uncharted (dreadfully) with AC3. Why they've even mentioned it in a survey again is beyond my comprehension.

    It's been an open-world game since Assassin's Creed 1.

    And no, I do not want linear missions. It's taken us three games of complaining about them and the eventual self-implosion of linear nightmares in ACIII to get non-linear missions back like in AC1. The last thing in the world I want is linear missions.

    If I want to play Uncharted, I'll play it. And when I do play it, I play it for about 10 hours in between the 50-100 hours that I'll invest in a GOOD Assassin's Creed game.

    I came here looking to see who else had gotten a survey, because they never seem to find their way to my e-mail Inbox. I get to hear about them third-hand in some article, usually posting the results.
