It's sad that The Order outsold Tomb Raider in their debut months, but only because $60 tech demos like The Order have no business selling more than 4 copies. If nothing else it just proves SE launched the game at the wrong time. Sony delayed The Order into early in 2015 instead of late 2014 and it made a huge difference because there was more time to hype the game and there was nothing else to play. You came off your big fall 2014 games and there was this big anticipated new game coming out. Where as with Tomb Raider you're getting gangbanged already by Fallout 4 and Halo 5, you have no more holes for Tomb Raider.
I don't think it matters for the franchise. SE was reimbursed for the deal naturally.
