Ubisoft: Play Assassin's Creed 3 PC With A Controller [Mar 28, 2012, 11:24 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
There's a preview of Assassin's Creed 3 on GameSpy with quotes from Ubisoft Montreal Creative Director Alex Hutchinson about what to expect from the stealth/action sequel. The author deserves extra points for the concluding Q&A expressing skepticism that the PC edition of the game will be released alongside the console editions. On another PC-related topic, they learn that their professed "love" and plans for "supporting" the PC does not include putting time into mouse and keyboard support (thanks Destructoid). Here's word:
Sadly the PC version won't get much special treatment, he admitted: "We're definitely supporting PC, we love PC, but I think it'll be PC with a controller. I don't see us investing hugely in a mouse and keyboard setup. I think if you want to play on PC and you want to play Assassin's Creed, you have a controller."

I've said it before and I'll say it again: clearly you want out of the PC market Ubisoft, so just pack your shit and get out already! You've got a brain dead DRM scheme and now you're going to go so far as to say, "yes it will run on the PC but we didn't put any actual work into it so you'll get what we give you and be happy with it!"
I think they view it as any money from the PC versions they deliver months late is just bonus revenue. It's a shame because the previous AC games after 1 were actually pretty good ports and that was their big excuse on why they were so late to market.
