In reply to the above, I wanted to say that Ubisoft have been sending out emails to customers who purchased CE's from them. The emails contain questionnaires about each addition, as well as asking for opinions on games, contents etc. I know this because I filled one out myself.

They're fully aware of the troubles around unity, and it's good to see them taking some form of step to improve.

Admittedly, this means nothing really. Syndicate could prove to be a rushed mess, and that would kill the franchise.

I totaly agree Matt. I was a die hard fan too. But after ac4 I kinda lost the feeling. Ac4 black flag was amazing though. Unity was great graphics and details... but with the modern
stort completly gone I felt like the devs didn't know where to go anymore.
You know, since the desmond story ended I felt like ubisoft got lost, no inspiration no more. The event that had been
build up since ac1 was over, the climax was reached...

Same for the collectors editions : The black and white edition were epic at the time. The brotherhood codex edition was something completly different. The revelations animus edition yet again was something completly different. But then they started the freedom edition and kept repeating the same formula over and over again -> 4-5 editions with specific items for each. They repeated this with black flag, unity and now syndicate. I'm just not hyped for these edition anymore. Before they reveal them, you already now what it's going to be. A box with the theme of the game, a plastic made in china figure, map, steelcase, litho's, artbook, ... For once or twice, I can live with that, but for fuck sake put some originality in your CE's!!!
It's something you see in the games they make too. People even call it the ubisoft formula. They use it in every game like farcry and watch dogs. A map, full with stuff, areas with outposts, linear story and hundreds of useless sidequests. The same formula we see very year.

That's why I just collect the premium statues like the ezio's fury, edward resin, attakus ezio and connor
premium. They are every time totaly different, epic and rare. They are ORIGINAL!

I hope they get back on track... but after seeing syndicate I fear the worst. Let's be honest ac fans... the era of AC has been over since ac3 (except black flag). It's hard, but it's the truth :/

Thanks for your attention!
