Neither had much hype.  The Order and Ryse were blasted pre-release which negates the positive stuff (the stuff that builds hype).  If there's more negative than postitive like there was for both of those then they're not hyped relatively speaking.

The Order had more hype than Ryse ever did. The problem is the more Sony showed the less interested vocal fans became.

People were ripping Ryse apart the first time gameplay was shown because of the QTEs. The Order however is in a more popular genre and people thought it was going to rival Gears of War. The Order was a highly anticipated game at one point, Ryse was just something to play.

Saying The Order wasn't hyped is NOT rewriting history. It didn't reach Destiny of CoD levels of hype, but it was still hyped.

Just as much as Ryse.  The initial trailer had lots of hype but closer to launch not so much.  Probably by launch people anticipated Ryse more simply because the amount of negative articles was less for it.  People appreciated it for what it was unlike the Order.  The Order and Ryse lived up to their respective hype levels it was clear each was going to appeal to only a certain type of person.
