Ubisoft's creative director Alex Hutchinson has said to get the most out of Assassin's Creed III for PC you're better off plugging in a game controller, than using keyboard and mouse.

Director of IP development Tommy Francois at Ubisoft calls it "a mistake" to go after companies to get their brands under control, as it's the people who created them that matter.
Ubisoft has learnt this the hard way claims Francois. Mandating smaller acquired studios is not the right approach - it's better to build over time to get the most out of people.
