Forums - Sony Discussion - The Order: 1886: Sony's Soulless Answer to Gears of War - IB Times

I've heard conflicting reports on the weapons. Some say soulless others say they're incredibly inventive and fun to use. Who to believe?

Looks like another TPS to me. Dunno what people see in this game other than its a PS exclusive.


Its a TRUE PS4(PS4 only) and NXT GEN exclusive that's not on PS3/360 and can't be found ANYWHERE else except PS4.

 

That is what people see in this game. 



I have grown to not trust gaming websites or gaming journalists at all. And when I say at all I mean at all. Yes sometimes they gush after a game that turns out being good, and sometimes they hate on a game that is actually great. So I will do what I always do now and wait for user reviews when I am still in doubt.

Having said that I sincerely hope Ready at Dawn has been listening to all the criticism their game has received since the start of this year. They have had ample time to make it "more fun" or whatever unless they have a much larger vision than anything they have shown anyone and believe what we haven't seen is enough to win us over.

Personally, if I were them, I would just make the game much harder. Making a game hard is a good way to take simplistic game design and yet make the game feel much better. And by harder I mean i hit from hybrid = game over. 3 shots from human weapons = game over. That oughtta shut people up...



I knew the usual suspects would be in here.



Would take ibtimes opinion with a grain of salt. They make so many click bait articles and false information in general.

I think the pre-order numbers for this game basically proves Playstation gamers are only looking for graphics and shooters. It got pre-ordered A LOT before even gameplay was shown.



Not really sure what to make of this game. All I can tell is it has an interesting look.

Calling it now, come February 20, 2015... people will still be ''waiting''...


I hope not.

 

This is one of the very few games that is an actual Next Gen PS4 exclusive that can't be found ANYWHERE else like The impending Little Big Planet 3, Titanfall, MLB The Show, Ryse, DCUO or Dead Rising 3

 

The only game I'm getting is Driveclub for the rest of the year and The Order and Bloodborne are the 1st games i'm looking into for next year. So if you're talking specifically about PS fans on PS4 still waiting if this game is trash, then, you would be correct.

 

But if i'm correct on your post history and what you prefer, you're going to be waiting just as much as everybody else

 

Lol

I'm starting to get the impression that reviewers are being harder on games not necessarily because the games are objectively worse, but because they expected radical new innovations with a new generation and found that, as usual, we just got "better graphics boxes." Never mind the fact that, notwithstanding the 2D-to-3D transition of the mid-90s that necessitated new ways of making games, there's never been much innovation in gaming. Everything has been done already.

Now, if this or any other game does turn out to be objectively bad (poor controls, bad AI, broken difficulty, lots of bugs), then it should be graded as such. Of course, this is all just first impressions here, not full reviews of finished games, but first impressions based on dealing with limited time with small chunks of an unfinished game are not frequently indicative of how the final game will be. I remember being not terribly impressed with the AI in Halo 3: ODST, thinking it wasn't improved over Halo 3 like Bungie promised, but in the final game the AI did actually perform better than in Halo 3.

Exactly this. I couldn't agree with you more even if they paid me. And I think this is something these so called gaming journalists can't get in their heads.

The industry does not or can't possibly be expected to reinvent the wheel every single new generation or every 5 years. Movies have been made the exact same way since the 1950s. In all that time we just have better sound, better effects, better cameras but at the heart of every movie the most important things have alsways been what realm of suspended belief the director was trying to convey to the audience.

Games should be no different. The way I see it, is that every developer should focus on one thing on their game first, "is it fun to play?" without even a story is there enough in this game to make people just love playing it? Thats the most importnat component of any game as far as I am concerned. Then the next thing is, "outside the gameplay, how do I make the player care about what he is looking at?" this is the part that verything else that comes into making a game comes into play.

But game reviewers just seem to go with teh wind when it comes to what should or shouldn't be expected of a game. 



Seriously, i hope this game turns out to be good.

There have been a lot of previews that didn't have that much good to say about this games gun play.

I dont have time ti be looking forward to games that will eventually be trash.

This same shit happened with Knack

PLEASE be good!
