Crucial URGENT Video Game Question Answer Needed NOW

[TychoCelchuuu]

When you click on a dude in Syndicate, what does the voice say? I always thought it says "selected" but this site says it's garble that sounds sort of like "JELAKIT." Now I don't know what to believe.

edit: never mind I loaded the game up again to test my ears and fuck that website, it totally says "selected." Still interested in input from others though, just about the game in general. Did you ever play it? I really enjoyed it although honestly I wish the controls weren't such shit. I think one thing it does really well is immerse the player in the world: little details like how it's implied you're basically in a blimp literally controlling the agents from above made it feel more real, and the hilarious disregard for civilians feels a lot more natural for the game and its theme than the cavalier attitude taken towards causalities and death in lots of other games.

Hey, if we're going to talk about kind of janky old cyberpunk/scifi games with wanton disregard for civilian casualties, how about Crusader? Man, i loved those games, and there's virtually nothing else like them, at least not from that isometric perspective.

I've always thought of Deus Ex as secretly kind of being a spiritual successor to those games, because it carried on a lot of similar elements, arguably moreso than it followed up on its actual point of origin in System Shock.

Also, people probably would have been way less angry at the Syndicate reboot if it was actually a reboot of Crusader, because, honestly, what Starbreeze made wouldn't have been a terrible Crusader game.

I think it was kind of a fine Syndicate game too. I mean, the genre was different, and the story was dumb, but everything else was more or less spot on.

Those are well-beloved classics. I loved seeing how many citizens you could get inot one spot and then mow them down with a car or set them on fir with lasers. The mind control thingy was just hilariously overpowered/weird.
