I love the AC franchise and have been playing it* since the beginning. I know it was because of the limited power of the platform that you couldn't have the usual crowds of bystanders etc. I'm sure it was a great game in general, it just felt like a bit of a ghost town :/
(* on and off, I took a break around 3/black flag after a bit of burnout)
As I mentioned in other comments we only had 9 months from zero to finished original game with no source code or help from a very busy Ubisoft other than some reference assets (which were completely redone for the PSP). If we had more time, another year, bigger crowds would have been a high priority!
