Castle seiges look cool!!
And yeah I don't see it being stealthy, though it was possible to play that way in Odyssey, especially if you focused on that side of the skill tree. I think it all comes down to the setting, classical Greece and the Vikings definitely don't make you think of stealth attacks. They did mention social stealth will make a re-appearance at least.
Considering the Viking age leads right up to the Crusades nicely, if they continued sequentially, with the first true next gen AC they could re-visit the original AC setting which deserves a re-do. Then they could re-introduce a stealth-heavy approach like the true Assassins of the time period used. Its too bad Unity was such a mess at launch, as they went all in on stealth for that one. Make it play at launch how it did a year later, and I think AC looks totally different today. That disaster changed everything.
