An assassins creed set in 1870s San Francisco (wild west vibes)
\
I would love to see an assassin creed set in 1870s San Francisco (a pretty decent sized city during this time in America) with a former Confederate or union soldier moving west to start over after the war doing bounties or maybe be an Pinkerton agent enforcing anti Union activity until one day coming into contact with an assassin who killed his boss only learning of the order after killing said assassin and finding evidence of the wrong during of said boss and a mark alluding to the templar's in some capacity.
With the character feeling regret or having flashbacks of his time in the war with the guilt of killing other he goes to the brotherhood to make amends and vows to help them in some capacity to make up for his time working for the templar's as a anti Union enforce or a Pinkerton agent and for killing another assassin. Maybe instead of the apple of eden the isu artifact can predict civil unrest(?) and that's why it's super easy for anti-Union agents to put down riots or strikes.
And with the city of San Francisco being mainly surrounded with frontier towns and mining/railroad town it could have a sort of red dead vibe with it while also have a very large city to do parkour in.
And with this being set during the same time as the frye twins we could have a grapple hook or maybe instead of a grapple it's more of a rope dart that aids in swinging and also has a lasso type effect to it.
Obviously all this needs to be polished but I feel like seeing something like this would be a great addition (criticism or critique is welcome)
TLDR: Assassins creed set in 1870s San Francisco with railroad/factory tycoons as templar's with a frontier similar to RDR2 and a new isu artifact
