Yeah this could turn into a pr nightmare for ubi if they are not careful with how they handel some aspects of the setting and figures of the time. I don't think turning the founding fathers especially washington into a villian , then instructing players to assassinate them will go over very well. Washington, nor any of them were perfect men by any strecth but they are considered heroes by a great many people and for a lot of good reasons. I'm also curious to see if ubi will try to tackle anything related to slavery, as that could be a disaster for them aswell if not handle correctly. Love the concept but its going to be interesting to see where they go with it.
Come on, we're talking about a game series where the final stage in one of the games is to basically break into the Vatican as a one man army, kill a bunch of people, and then fight the Pope in a one on one battle with magic alien powers.
