Well, most of them probably don’t know about it. But sometimes the grievances the “hardcore” have against a game can reverberate among casuals, even if they don’t know why. Look at how badly Star Wars: Outlaws failed, despite the IP. I highly doubt that many of the casuals who skipped over it (who almost certainly would have bought a game like that in 2016 or so) had exactly the same reasons for doing so that people on here did, but clearly a lot of them were affected by the negative sentiments toward that game. Whether that will affect a more established franchise like AC may be a different question (yes Star Wars is a much bigger IP overall but Outlaws is not an established game franchise like AC).
