Forums - Sony Discussion - The Order: 1886 - PS4 Exclusive by Ready at Dawn

I was going to make a thread for this game! This game and other being MADMAX got my attention at e3.. But really this game deserves more attention. Like I said on other thread this could be the game that could replace Resistance franchise and Ready at Dawn filling Insomniac void.

Well about this game its a TPS set in Victorian London, with metal and brassy look, killing werewolves in a co-op with futuristic weapons, ditching 16:9 for anamorphic aspect ratio to get more of a cinematic feel.. Hell yeah I'm excited about this game and cant wait to see gameplay footage

Definitely the most intriguing Sony IP shown at E3, also the only one that makes me really want the system. We need to see gameplay though. Ryse is a game which sounds cool on paper and has amazing graphics, the minute I saw it being played though I knew it probably was going to be naff. Previews are coming in now and a lot reporters are just confirming what I suspected.

From Metro's preview:

"But to watch the demo, both the trailer at the media briefing and the live re-run we’re treated to later, it gives every impression of being an ultra-shallow, almost on-the-rails, actioner with all the combat replaced by mindless quick time event (QTE) sequences.

But that’s not actually the case at all. Actually getting to play the game later we found to our surprise that you have full control of Titus, and that although the onscreen prompts make it look like a QTE-fest that’s not what’s really going on. The button prompts are actually just the end points of a combo and it doesn’t even matter if you don’t hit them – you’ll just get fewer rewards if you don’t."



I like the steampunk setting. But nothing can really be said without gameplay.

Let's hope it turns out to be good.

loved the trailer, cant wait for the game!

Edit : i do hope that sony buys ready at dawn. they do have a strong relationship and i feel they would fit perfectly in their first party dev line up


I support that idea! Even though they pretty much work exclusively for Sony (only exception being Okami port for Wii) it would be better if they would always be at hand. They would be a great addition to Sony's roster, stregthening with Sony Bend in developing for the Vita.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Not that its on rails, but that its immediately flawed by the QTE or Kill cinematics, what ever you want to call it. They are too persistant and interupt the flow of combat. 

Destructoid:

"Despite their insistence, they were totally quicktime events. Worse yet, their inclusion (complete with the contextual buttons) was a constant blemish on an otherwise beautiful game. Each time an execution was begun, it focused the camera on that particular unfortunate subject, completely ignoring any other enemies that had been engaged. It's a situation that we've seen enough, and has never been great."

Well, I'll trust Destructoid over Metro when it comes to games ;(



This looks awesome. It reminds me of Left 4 Dead with a twist.

I'm seriously considering getting a PS4 for this game.



Victorian-era London. Me Gusta.

Definitely looks interesting.



i like the era/setting and don't really play the miltary shooters for some reason but still enjoy a shooter,so might give this a look
