Re: What are the 10 best Assassin's Creed collectible items?
On the one hand I appreciate the fandom which surrounds the Assassin's Creed franchise, and also how many collector's editions and awesome merch there is surrounding the franchice which makes it so collectible, but on the other hand I disagree with the way Ubisoft have handled the promotion of the AC franchise, and also prey on fans and collectors alike
Releasing half a dozen different editions for each game release is one thing, but it's pretty c**tish to collectors to not tier the releases, meaning collectors have to buy every edition in order to collect all the goodies available. It's for this reason alone I have been boycotting Ubisoft releases, but specifically the AC franchise for several years now. Add to that the various compilation re-releases, and that this year (2014) sees not one, but TWO separate AC games spread across two different console generations, and you begin to understand that Ubisoft are simply out to get your money and don't care about the people who collect this kind of stuff - some may say it's fan service, but I consider it to be taking advantage of collectors!
That said, there are some very nice collector's editions available, and with each release these editions get more and more elaborate and raises the bar for quality editions
