Honestly, who cares.
Not EA nor Starbreeze has any idea what they're doing. Nobody, for 1 second, should be looking forward to this. Anyone worth anything would tell you that the key to making a good syndicate game is to simply expand on Molyneux and gang's original idea. Syndicate is about killing tons of people. Mowing them down for your own profit. Using people like guinea pigs and human shields with mind altering technology. It's about a story of the final struggle for world domination between 2 corporations and the last remaining unguided humans. It's about strategy. In 5 seconds I came up with a more intuitive RTS UI and controls for small scale combat... It's about perspectives. What is reality really? How do I know what is real? Is this my reality? And if a man frees himself from the illusions of an indoctrinator has he now observed objective reality?

In an ideal world "Syndicate Apocalypse" is an epic science fiction, horror, psychological thriller strategy game with big robots that carry big guns and let nothing get in their way. Syndicate is a metaphor and hyperbolic example of our own reality.

But of course it's going to be an FPS remake. Just like the XCOM FPS remake. RTS games aren't popular anymore. People are too stupid to play RTS games, right? You all want FPS, don't like to me. Don't lie, you love it.

Kill yourselves, EA and Starbreeze, a thousand times.
