It was to be expected. The new remake of Syndicate isn’t going down well with reviewers. You’re better off with the original version where you can enjoy hours of fun with a minigun or whatever you’re having. Who needs tactics? Just send all your guys in and mow down all the baddies! (Except in the Atlantic Accelerator where you need lasers but that’s another story..)
I wasted so much time of my youth on Syndicate! On the other hand … it wasn’t wasted 😉 One of the best games ever (like most game back then!).
