That looks sweet! Has anyone played it? My work colleague recommended it, but I've not got it yet, I was a fan of syndicate so its on my wishlist. |

I have it and Backed the Kickstarter for it. I have not had a chance to really sit down with it yet but what I have it feels very Syndicate like with a heavy douse of Shadowrun thrown in. It I think they did really way, at least at the beginning with it.

Only played through a bit of the tutorial so far, but from what I can tell its certainly hitting the syndicate vibe, though this one looks like its pushing the stealth aspect much more than the run-n-gun approach than I recall (though thats still an option here), that might also just be because its hand holding me at the moment as all i've played so far is a bit of the tutorial. The graphics are actually surprisingly detailed, you can zoom from quite a way out, right down onto your characters, there is alot of attention to detail. First impressions are all good so far, havn't seen anything that I dont like yet (apart from this being just a single player game, there is no multiplayer option anywhere from what I can tell, which is a shame), but i'm only basing this on about a ten minute play through, Seams alot more puzzle oriented than I remember syndicate ever being, but once again that might be down to it just being a tutorial level. Someone has uploaded some lets play videos playing through the game if you want to see how the real gameplay works (though i'm choosing to not watch them, as I don't want to spoil the surprise of playing the game for myself) |

I actually meant to back this one, but extenuating circumstances had me missing that chance. I bought it as soon as I was able, but have not yet had a opportunity to play. I use to play Syndicate for hours at the USO - when I wasn't playing X-Com - and have great memories of the game (despite it's difficulty and bugginess). This spiritual successor is like a merger of Syndicate, X-Com, and Shadowun, among others, and I am itching to get into it; but I have way too much on my plate ATM, and am saving a lot of my gaming energy for the release of Fallout 4. But, this holiday season, maybe I'll get to jump into it.
