I was really expecting for this game, but I WONT BUY IT, for several reasons:
  • Insane price $60 for same boxed or digital version?
  • DRM is a PAIN IN THE ASS!
  • Being kicked from the game if your internet connection gets interrupted
  • Corrupted savegames due out of sync DRM servers
  • INSANE DLC prices! 20$ for the first DLC...
  • Origin... sucks
  • Need any more reasons?
I have BOUGHT all the Assassin Creed collection, and i had to CRACK those games to get them working to be able to play normally and stable without all the DRM, because i totally got pwned by constant DRM disconnections that made me lose several hours of gameplay and savegames corrupted.

Some guy nicknamed Vulpes Zedra started to develop server for offline play which is working except not all features are available yet. Ive asked him if he plans to do LAN support or kinda server EMU where people would be able with modified hosts file to connect to private servers.. well..i think it is not bad idea at all and i hope he will have enough patience to develop it and im very curious about it :)
