Poll up top, but I realized this acronym has a whole lot of gaming things associated with it. Animal Crossing, Ace Combat, Assassin's Creed, Armored Core... I'm curious what pops into everyone's head first.

Also I had to specify gaming because I realized the poll would be 90% "air conditioning" otherwise

Even though I don't care for Assassin's Creed anymore, I'd still immediatly connect the acronym to it.

Pretty rude of you to forget about Astral Chain.

I think for whatever reason a lot of people always spell out the full title "Animal Crossing" versus abbreviating Assassin's Creed as "AC" so I voted for Assassin's Creed.

For some reason, I always think of Armored Core even though I've played fifteen times as much of Assassin's Creed games.

Assassins Creed for me. I'm actually surprised when i see AC mentioned and it's Animal Crossing, even though i enjoy those games way more than i enjoy Assassins Creed.

It's definitely Assassin's Creed but that's mostly because I don't really play any other games that are abbreviated as AC.

Only 3% think armor class? Come on. At least for me, if I see "AC" with no context I assume armor class. After that it's Assassin's Creed > Animal Crossing > Asheron's Call.
