According to a source kotaku http://kotaku.com/sources-next-big-assa ... 1750937895 said today, after an article saying that AC would pause for a year, that Watch Dogs 2 will be set in San Francisco and that it may already get released later this year. Seems that Watch Dogs keeps staying on the Driver track.

Edit: Interview where Ubisoft said that Watch Dogs was born out of a Driver project http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/12/18/ ... for-driver

W_D is Ubisoft's replacement for the Driver IP - it's painfully obvious.

At least there'll be trams this time. And here's hoping that they hire better writers this time.

Too many games taking place in the US. Game companies need to think outside the box for once. Why not places like France, or Italy?

Easy to answer: What is the biggest customer base? THE US. Where are the most games set? THE US. Since the rest of the (western) world also admires american cities the choice is pretty clear.

Oh big deal. The US has the biggest customer base. Games have been set in the US all the time. People admire American cities, who really cares? It's good to face change once in a while.

Oh not really what I want to see either, but big publishers don't give a sh*t...

That's why I don't like Ubisoft.
