For sure, I absolutely dressed Noel in the Assassin's Creed outfit because his default pants were incredibly dumb.
The thing about this move is that it smacks of desperation. The logic behind it is "Assassin's Creed is popular, if we put it in our game the fans of AC will play our game!" and that's just a fundamental misunderstanding of the audience. It just ain't gonna happen. It didn't work for FFXIII-2 and it won't work here.
If they're really so obsessed with having mini festival DLCs and capitalising on the success and brand name of other games, here's one for you. Do the Chrono Trigger Millennial Fair. People will go absolutely berserk for it given how they've neglected the Chrono series over the past few years, and it's their own IP so they don't need anyone else's permission. Let's have the boy band whoop Gato's metal ass for silver points, give me a foot race between some Imperials and heck, have Noctis bash into Lunafreya and drop a pendant too!
They could even pull a trouthouse "Oh if this sells
reaaaaally well maybe we'll consider possibly announcing a Chrono Trigger remake. Actually no, we'll definitely announce it, but we might consider having it release before 2022" move and I'd be cool with it.
