1. A Female Protagonist
Proving that Ubisoft do their most creative and meaningful work away from their core triple-A titles, yes, AC Liberation had Aveline de Grandpré - an 18th Century African-French assassin who had many of the abilities of AC III's Connor back in 2012 - sadly it was barely covered by the press in any meaningful way; nor was it particularly great either. The fact remains that outside of creating a slew of semi-interesting male protagonists, there's been scarce little done to flesh out different gendered approaches to the Assassin's Order overall. We rarely see females that in their respective time periods would have far more to rally against or to say than the fellas, which is a shame as like in Freedom Cry it provides an engaging viewpoint on the times right away. It's worth pointing out that with feminism in 2015 being less about equality and more about extremist reactions to anything male-centric - alongside the fact Ubisoft got the brunt of the latter mindset last year when it was 'revealed' they didn't want a female hero in Arno's place - if they did allow for a female protagonist so soon it might seem like something of an apology. Still, you can't deny that depending on the time period - in this case Victorian England - being an aristocratic Lady by day and death-dealing assassin by night would be one hell of a Peggy Carter-style story to tell.
