History Trivia / AssassinsCreedRogue

* IKnewIt: As soon as Adewale was seen in promotional material, people correctly guessed that [[spoiler:Shay would kill him]].

** Originally after leaving the Brotherhood Shay was planned to spent a couple of years as depressed drunkurd before getting a new chance in life as the Templar. It was dropped because writers couldn't make this time period interesting enough gameplay-wise.

** ''Rogue'' was also going to have Haytham as the main character, but this fell through when the writers realized it would come into conflict with ''Forsaken.''

* CompletelyDifferentTitle: Or "Subtitle" in this case. Released in Russia as ''Assassin's Creed: Изгой'' (Assassin's Creed: The Exile).

* WorkingTitle: For a while, ''Assassin's Creed Comet'' was the name being thrown around as the name for what ''Rogue'' would be before before it was announced.

* NamesTheSame: Sadly, Liam O'Brien was not voiced by Creator/LiamOBrien.

* FanNickname: Among the people who believe that this is a different Research Consultant from ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIVBlackFlag'', the new Consultant has been nicknamed RL 2, or more commonly, people call them Numbskull.

* FakeNationality: Like Dan Jeanotte for ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedUnity,'' Canadian actor Steven Piovesan plays the Irish Shay Cormac.

* FakeNationality: Like Dan Jeanotte for ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedUnity,'' Canadian actor Steven Piovesan plays the Irish Shay Cormac. Unlike Dan, he actually gets to do a proper accent (Arno in ''Unity'', for some inexplicable reason, speaks with a British accent).

* DevelopmentGag: During the production of ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIII'', developers noted that the young UsefulNotes/GeorgeWashington had red hair but when they showed him during the Braddock Expedition they put him under a powdered wig to anachronistically recall his famous image, since they felt it would make him look weird. In ''Rogue'', we finally get a glimpse of a 20 year old {{Adorkable}} redheaded George Washington.
