Assassin's Creed III Makes an Appeal to Boating Enthusiasts Everywhere

It's 2012, so I'll spare you the "on a boat" references. It's too bad, because I had a really good one. Guess you'll never hear it.

I'm hesitant to say I'm excited for this feature of the game.

Ship stuff could be amazing if it's significantly less turret-sequency than it looks.

I'm not fond of the boat thing. I could have been if ACIII was about how the assassins were pirates or something, but this just ain't doing much for me. I get that naval battles were a pretty big deal in the War for American Independence, but again - eeeeeeeeeeeeh, I dunno.

How are people not excited for this? I got chills down my spine with the synergy between the music and action that was displayed. It looks to be a lot of fun and the boat warfare looks like a really interesting addition.

This looks nothing like the Assassin's Creed I want. The first and the second will always remain my favourite, it seems.

Will Desmond Miles be wearing flippy floppies? Will the protagonist now climb buoys? Will dolphins be presented as new mounts?

Ugh, Im as interested in this as I was about that "great" RTS crap from AC:R. I have no desire to do any of this, I really hope its somewhat optional at least.

All I want to do is continue to stab dudes in the FACE and NECK!

I'm not super excited about this feature, but it looks interesting enough. I'm more interested in it than I was for the weird tower defense game from Revelations that I didn't much care for.

What I want to know is, will the pre-order DLC for pre-ordering at Gamestop be available for purchase after release? I will be buying Assassin's Creed III, and while I do want to play the Lost Mayan Temple story... I do not give money to Gamestop (personal choice).

This game looks better every time I see it.

The only thing numbing my excitement is the thought of all the DLC that the game will have. Do I get it day one or wait for a complete edition

I keep coming away from AC3 trailers with a massive freedom-boner.
