Do we really need to get into the whole "Does time = quality?" debate and bring up Duke Nukem Forever and other such atrocities?Because the quality has seriously declined and I hate to see that happen to a franchise I once really enjoyed?

Could always not play them. I don't even have III because I still haven't beaten the ones before it, and I likely won't get it for a while.More time doesn't necessarily produce a game, sure, but a quick turnaround isn't going to do it any favors, either.
I'm just speaking from personal experience, but the quick succession of titles in the franchise burned me out and I jumped ship. Sometimes a little breathing room can be just what a franchise needs; with AC, I felt smothered.
I'm sure that Assassin's Creed is making them great money now, but in the long run? Considering the reception of Assassin's Creed 3 across the board, I think the brand is suffering for it; maybe they'll win back the crowd with IV, but I'm skeptical. I'd just hate to see a franchise I once really enjoyed go the way of Guitar Hero.

A question on Assassin's Creeds
Should I get someone that knows nothing of the franchise but is a fan of modern prince of persia style gameplay but always wished it had a bit more of a free roaming bent and then sit them down with a copy of say 1 and a copy of 3 would they dismiss the later titles?
Moreover given others in this thread have declared their intentions to play it at some unspecified, but presumably somewhat distant, point in the future would it play out they will we see a series go downhill as badly as some might have said?
What is off the rails though? Releasing too often?
People would buy this.Assassin's Creed Racing.
All AC characters race around medieval cities and landscapes in wooden go-karts invented by Leonardo Da Vinci.
Are you saying the Wii U dodged a bullet there?
To be fair, his character in the movie can see into the future, hence the Jedi moves. The hair, however...Also, Nic Cage has impeccable hair and smooth moves.
Spoken like a true PC developer."I'll tell you an anecdote: When I was the producer on Prince of Persia: Sands of Time we managed to get our hands on a very good programmer who's still on the Assassin's Creed core team. One day on his desk he had a black book, and I was like, 'what is that?' It was the documentation support for coding for PS2. That day I understood I never wanted to optimize code, that's too much work.
SEGA once gave Bioware complete creative control... and Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood happened. Remember that game? Yeah, nobody does.
