as for the metacritic thing. i think we need to separate sales from whether a game is good. and we also need to separate hype on the part of the playstation fanbase and hype from people who just happen to like good games, irrespective of who the publisher or developer happens to be. there may be rabid anticipation in some quarters for the order 1886. you may share in that anticipation. the gaming press that has gone hands on with it has ranged between hating it, being confused by it, and saying it's a mediocre action game. if reviews no longer matter, why does sony trumpet them whenever their games get good reviews? because they create positive hype which in turn drives more sales. this game is going to do badly critically. people buy all sorts of stuff; they may well buy this too. that is no statement on its quality as a game.

The Playstation fanbase contains people who happen to like good games. Do not generalize.

i didn't. i said people who like good games AND have no particular attachment to a company.
