Looks interesting... As Outsider said, I like the art style alot. And the Voltaic Bombs look badass. Still not sold on the combat though, it still looks a little jerky to me - there needs to be more fluidity in it. Hopefully they'll make the chameleon ability more effective in night time and shadows, and less effective when just hiding behind a table in a lit indoor area.
It's good that Ubi are finally showing off Evie, although if she's as good in combat as Jacob is (I think in one of the videos I watched, the person who played the demo said that Evie was a good fighter when stealth failed) then I don't see any point in playing as Jacob in the open world, considering that Evie is better at stealth. I'm still not entirely sold on Syndicate but it is looking better now than it did at E3. I'll wait for reviews and probably get it for Christmas but maybe earlier; if Ubi want me to pre-order it then the game will have to seriously improve (not that it looks particularly bad, it's just it doesn't really stand out much to me yet).
