The Assassin's Creed franchise evolved into the household name it is thanks to rare, or at least rare-among-AAA, support for risk-taking at Ubisoft, reckons Assassin's Creed 3 creative director Alex Hutchinson.
Speaking with FRVR, Hutchinson reflects on the dramatic shifts that Assassin's Creed has seen over the years. There's the once-central, now-sidelined modern era connection that started with Desmond Miles, for instance. "I would just delete it all in the modern ones," he says of this increasingly vague story thread.
