The Order 1886 (uncut) Standard Edition - [PlayStation 4] (Video Game)

Customer Review

This will be my first review on Amazon now so.

Since most certainly first read only the top lines of a review, the most important thing first:

---- It is not recommended to buy this game for 50-70 ----

Normally I hold me back when it comes to criticism.
When I just looked up, however, that this game comes to an average of 4 stars, I thought that we should help all potential buyers might.

What is it in the game, has been described in detail, and can be examined in various videos. The part I let sensibly made so.

With regard to the overall impression: I personally felt as consumers discreetly verar ****, as the game was over.
But well, here to the "Details":
(Please note that I'm most casual gamers, but my review is also intended for those very, hardcore gamers will probably not set the game anyway)

What's good:

- Original world with alternative historical development
- Atmospheric (locales, sound, dialogues, sound in general)
- Very good graphics
(Per se, there are still one or the other positive; but truly stand out, which can nix.

which is absolutely not good:

All in all the game.

You do not even know where to begin.
I try it:

We are talking about a full-price titles with 8-10 hours of play "fun" without any replay value.
And with that, and especially to fall this game.

8-10 hours ... Hm ... okay for a single-player campaign nowadays that's probably ok.
But after that nothing really comes. And by that I mean: nothing at all.
No hardcore fashion, no multiplayer, no nothing.
After that, the game is simply over. Just like a movie it would be. So it should feel so.

And that brings me to the next point. The short playing time can perhaps compensate if one imagines you sit up, in several stages, tied eight hours in a movie.
But the story is much too boring and replaceable.
The characters are ok, but not great. The game world is believable, but not alive. The twists are there, but predictable.
The particular struggles are well drafted, but dive several times. The list can be resumable.

Now some ------------------------------ --------------- could SPOILER ---------------------- be included (augenzwinker)

To times to give an example about the middle of the game there is a fight against a mutant Lycans in the form of a QuickTime events. At the point that was suitable and reasonably fun. Since you do not necessarily complain about it.
The whole was also a rather atmospheric section ahead in a mental hospital, this has been rounded pleasantly through that fight.
Anyway.
The final battle of the game, the last ever playable levels, is actually a slightly modified copy of the aforementioned QuickTime events. Yes it is a little longer and yes, the cinematics are different, but seriously ...
What shoud that? When I experienced this second fight, I have found it a bit annoying that it is in a sense a repetition, but as the game after that was over, I could not believe my eyes.
Who is happy with the end or was, the in my opinion is not going to help.

If the game would then still ~ 5h continued to run, would there actually what can come of it.
But that's just one of the potentials that have been completely wasted.

Developers have "invented" really cool weapons. The Termitgewehr example makes real mood. Why I can with this gun only play a single section? And doing it against as few opponents.

Towards the end of the game this conspiracy is indeed uncovered. At the point I really expected more enemy types.
Nope. A few boxes and burn a little rumba preparers and so that was done again.

The shootings themselves are also quite ok. However, they are a) way too easy, and b) the same way too.
From a hose level shooter you can usually expect anything else, but somehow you have to really stand out from the crowd.
A unique selling point there are not in The Order.
Ever seen anything, anything cursed before.

The approaches and ideas were there and also not bad. Was implemented all only partially.

Either the development time was set too short (I could imagine in part) or, and I am now quite certain that the profit margin should be as large as possible.

I mean, the development effort can be seen. But unlike an open-world game (which will be filled with life), the effort may never have been so great. I mean, yes graphic, characters yes, yes, but everything durchgeskriptet backdrop only for about 8 hours.
That's just proces **** on consumers. No more, no less.

Somehow I can not help feeling that the market potential develops in this direction. Consider BF: HL, Destiny and other AAA titles. Since one can only appeal to all gamers, not fall for the marketing machine of the developer. (Appeal to myself :))

I mean at the most sharply criticized games, one can somehow find its fun (I had fun with, for example, long Destiny), but that does not go with The Order. Not at all. You can not play again, and something to do differently. You can not discover new. One can not decide otherwise be.

It is enough if you have seen this boring movie once.

Many things are to me certainly never occurred.
To get an impression, which also extends to this point but from first.

How can 4 stars form here, is beyond me.
The game really is not good. At the beginning you still enjoys the great graphics and is blinded by the great setting, but in the end you're just disappointed to have spent so much money for so little fun.

If you want anyway "experiencing" it: Go to the video store !!!; Here rich 1-3 days completely.
