Ya, this series has definitely become CoD'ish with the annual releases, its too bad. I still enjoy AC, but I think I'm going to start skipping the smaller, annual releases and just stick to the big, numbered titles. Those are the real AC games, which come out every 2-3 years. The main dev crew doesn't even work on the smaller, "filler" games. So they're pretty much skippable.
I will make an exception with this pirate one though, naval was way too awesome to avoid a full game of it. You can fault Ubi for a lot of things lately regarding AC, but they've always been great for listening to fan feedback. Hence why we're getting Black Flag.
