The Order : 1886, what do you think about ?

Shiny turd.

I haven't seen that much hype about it to be honest (probably because it's a PS4 exclusive), but I remember seeing a few trailers for it. Graphics looked stunning for a next-gen console, but after seeing recent gameplays for it, it looks a bit like a Victorian themed Splinter-Cell/Spec-Ops clone. I'm sure it is unique, but that's just my opinion after watching th first 30 minutes of a walkthrough.

I can't play it anyway, I don't have a console.

My rating is 6/10... 7 hours of gameplay - half of it are cutscenes. :D

I watched 1 youtube video of the playthrough and it was nearly all cinematics and QTEs. Not good imo. They might have done better if they made a movie and not a game.

My theory with The Order is that someone at Sony was digging through their movie script pile and found a script about King Arthur's Knights fighting werewolves in a steampunk Victorian London and decided that it'd make a good PS4 exclusive. The problem is that they didn't want to turn it into a real game, so they made it into a "cinematic experience" because they can charge $60 for it instead of the price of a movie ticket. And they don't have to edit the script down to make it 2-3 hours long. It was never supposed to be a game, but someone at Sony thought it sounded like a good concept, which it is. It's just that someone in the creative process really wanted to be a filmmaker.

Just watch a playthrough. It will be pretty much the same experience as playing it.

I've never heard of this game. Oh wait, it's not on PC, that's why!

I like that it has mustaches, British people, and airships. That's uh, about it, really.
