So then The Order is getting the same treatment Ryse got from PS fans? It goes both ways.


I would agrue that they aren't really. Don't get me wrong, lots of PS fans gave Ryse crap (myself included) but there has been a lot of misinformation that people have just made the concious decision to run with concerning The Order. The criticism that Ryse recieved was also largely different than the criticism The Order is getting other than the QTE.

Ryse was criticized for it's clunky animation and mediocre gameplay on top of the issues people had with it having QTE.

Initial impressions of The Order have been pretty possitive as far as gameplay is concerned and the animation is top notch.

The Hypocricy comes from him berating The Order even though several of his issues also apply to Ryse.

lol, it's like some of you do not even read the posts you quote and respond to.

Like I said before, if you think the "QTE's" in Ryse are anything like The Order, you'll be in for a bad surprise when you play the game. And Ryse had decent replay value with the offline arena mode and online co-op. Ryse actually is a game I bought, and it's one I should not have bought at $60. But it was 3 months after launch and pickings were slim with my new console.

You're missing the point though. All I did was quote Gribble's list of flaws and point out it's getting hate for all of them. Reminding me I enjoyed a game that has some of those same flaws but not all, doesn't make me a hypocrite. Hell, even if Ryse literally had every single flaw I have with The Order, it still would not be hypocrisy, because I bought Ryse literally like a year ago. Maybe it's the type of purchase that steers me away from ones like The Order?
