Ubisoft not afraid to delay Assassins Creed if it not good enough

It seems that change is always possible. The Assassin's Creed franchise's annual releases are a subject of much contention, but it seems that yearly releases for the series might not be a certainty after all!

The growing culture of yearly installments in some of gaming's biggest franchises has caused many gamers to worry that both the creativity and quality of a product may suffer when pushing for annual releases, but not so says man of the moment Laurent Detoc, Ubisoft's North American president...


Speaking in an interview with IGN, Detoc declared that if the game is only 70% complete, then it won't be released to the public regardless of the annual release date expectations.

“If we think we have ended up with a 70 percent Assassin’s Creed game, we’re not going to ship it. That damages the brand,” Detoc said.

Detoc says that the quality of the release is what they take into consideration most. It is this quality that brings fans back again to the series, and if a game gets releases repeatedly below par, it becomes a struggle to bring gamer back to the franchise.

“There’s a lot of people who can play your game,” Detoc said. “We have fans who come back to the franchise and we’re very thankful for them, because we think we’re giving them a good game to play, and they give back to us when they buy it. But there’s a lot more people out there who we can sell games to.”

So what did you guys think. Did quality over quantity is better than quantity over quality
