It's the usual thing: the game got overhyped way too much. This is understandable, at the time the PS4 had not much exclusives that weren't ports. So The Order was hyped into overdrive. If it was just marketed as a solid mid-level game (which it is) at maybe lower price, this would have taken on good. But as the commercials and hype was saying something else, many that bought it felt deceived. That is all.

The hype in the media in the weeks before release was mainly negative, if you remember right.

It got criticism in the media, after the magazines git review copies. Before that all they could go for, was the marketuing machine. And the marketing machine was working for the game. Just look at the threads here in VGChartz. to see how the major impression was before release and how it changed with release. There may be single media outlets that looked through the hype and identified warning markers, but the marketing just drowned these voices.
