Sadly, I heard something that sort of blows my mind about this game and it's hinted at in Jade's "has repurcussions to the present day" line - this is a pretty fucking major spoiler if true:
You are actually a present-day/future assassin who is tapping into his genetic-memory of a past ancestor who was one of these assassin's and these missions are only part of a game and the rest is in the present day/future.That seems somewhat unlikely given the emphasis on the historical setting they've given so far.
Perhaps sequels will be set in different times and settings and they're using that (IMO) awful pretext you mentioned to tie it all up into a "franchise"?

That spoiler that scots posted has been talked about quite a lot all over the place, and (according to wiki) they've already confirmed that the sequels (it's a trilogy) will be set in the future.
Doesn't seem too unlikely to me. Still sound shit though.

Ah, I finally clocked Jade saying "franchise". Hmm. I suppose that's to be expected, it's freaking Ubisoft. They'll run any original idea into the ground like the Splinter Cell series. If you're lucky you'll get one good game, a run of about three bad ones and then another good one that sort of reinvents itself again.
Either way, I'll wait for the demo but I'm intrigued.

Anybody ever read Time Patrol by Poul Anderson? Agents are sent through time to smooth out any ripples in the past that might affect the present. This game sounds like a similar concept.

Wow that's badass. I like the current setting though, I wonder what the future looks like..
They killed his wife 10 years ago.
There's still time to save her.

Definately sounds and looks like something I'd bite on. I'm just a tad bit scared of the console lookout. Might end up like Thief : DS did :|

well its not really going for a thief feel. prince of persia meets hitman is the impression I get.
