I feel like the only real ps5 game we got so far is Returnal. I hope that chances fairly soon.

This game was released in a time when the hate towards Sony, from the Xbox fanboys and the US gaming press was so big, that I wonder how the playstation managed to survive. After the combat x360 vs ps3, everybody seemed to hate Sony. No way Sony could release a good exclusive title... I remember reading most ps4 reviews. Not only the ps4 was more powerful in paper, but in reality, it managed to destroy the x1. launch games could easily run at 1080p on the ps4, while the same game would only run at 900p, or even 720p. The kinekt2 was a joke. The voice control was a joke. It was much less powerful. And many other disadvantages. But despite that, the US reviews would still give a higher score/review to the x1. After the x360 success, no way the ps4 could win. So they would use everything, to destroy the ps4... like the ps4 launch titles, where every single exclusive title got destroyed by the press. Kill zone shadow fall, with its incredible graphics ? Low scores. Reasons ? Crap like 'ohhh, killzone SF plays like other killzone games'. Really ? Should it play as halo, instead ? Knack, with a great, lovely story, great characters, great old school gameplay . The red reviewers absolutely hated it. They thought they would finish it in 20 minutes, to quickly post their review, but instead, with an old-school gameplay, they kept dying.. and dying... and n dying... thousands of times. Etc etc etc. Then, The order 1886 was announced. 6 months before release, there were already hundreds of doom and gloom articles about the game. 10 reasons why it will flop. 12 reasons why it will be bad. Etc etc. Suddenly, the QTE became a 3rd world problem. All the negative reviews were already written months before release. The journalists wouldn't even play the game. Their crap review was ready, 4 months in advance. And of course, when the game was out, it got destroyed by the press. Ah, those quick time events !!! It didn't matter what game it was, any ps4 exclusive had to be destroyed.

The Order 1886 was an interesting idea but I don’t think the game warranted it’s price tag. It was too expensive to produce and too expensive to justify buying it. If they expanded the game and gave it more depth then the visual polish would take a hit-thus sort of ruining the selling point. It also definitely tanked the game that it relied so heavily on design tropes from the 360 era such as COD style QuickTime events, unskippable cutscenes and “follow a talking NPC” moments

That's bullshit and plain unfair saying 2022 is a shit year for games by listing the worst examples. If you actually bother to open your eyes and look around, there's tons of polished, great games to enjoy. To name a few: - Stray - MultiVersus - Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga - Elden Ring - Pokemon Legends: Arceus - Horizon: Forbidden West - Sifu - Tiny Tina's Wonderlands - Trek To Yomi - Dying Light 2 - The Last of Us: Part 1 - Sniper Elite 5 - Destroy All Humans 2 - TMNT: Shredder's Revenge - Splatoon 3 - Ghostwire: Tokyo - Tunic - Rollerdrome - Return to Monkey Island - Cult of The Lamb - Weird West - Slime Rancher 2 - Metal: Hellsinger - The Quarry - OlliOlli World We're not even taking account amazing games from the past that finally got ported to PC like Spider-Man, God of War, Uncharted, Death Stranding, Judgement, Lost Judgement, etc. Or even games that receives substantial updates like Destiny 2 The Witch Queen and Season of The Haunted expansions or Cyberpunk 2077 Edgerunners update. As a non-dad, I would be disappointed if you are my father.

I personally hope that this game will serve as an objective lesson for developers that GAMES ARE NOT MOVIES. If you want to make machinema or a straight-up 3D CGI movie, then by all means do so. We can always use more high-production animated movies. But to take a medium defined by its interactivity and spend the majority of your time creating non-interactive and barely-interactive facsimiles of cinema is a waste of time. Be you video game or be you movie. Trying to be both just takes you down the path of FMV games from the 90s.

Quite possibly the most incredible-looking game I've ever seen. Even now, 7 years later, nothing quite compares. All the more disappointing how the rest of the game turned out. The first big red flag was the announcement that The Order 1886, which was by all accounts looking to be Sony's steampunk Gears of War, wouldn't have a co-op mode. For all the talk about the underwhelming gameplay, nobody mentions how garbage the script is. The setting and the lore are admittedly fantastic, and I wish we would've gotten anything else, even a tie-in comic book, that would explore it further. But the actual script is riddled with holes and completely falls apart in the second half, where it's nothing but platitudes, contrivances and stupid misunderstandings. The abrupt, unsatisfying sequel bait ending that doesn't really resolve anything is just a cherry on top of the shit sundae. What a shame.

That was my problem. The QTE felt not like game mechanics but rather something put into a cut scene to look like a game play. The stealth was abomination with its binary state - you are seen you repeat the sequence. The mechanics like fighting Lycans were close to none, stand in one place roll when attacked enemy goes away rinse and repeat 3 to 4 hits to kill the enemy. Story was nice but it ended when others games would use the cliffhanger in the mid section of the game and continued. Played it but to me it was at best OK game and I bought it for 1/3 the price. And I have to say I play a lot of shorter games 3 to 5 hours long which I like way much more.

The Order: 1886 is one of the most underrated game of its time. I played the game approximately 6 years after its release, knowing full well that it was generally viewed as a failure. To my surprise I actually had an amazing time with it. Even at the end of the PS4 generation the game looked fantastic. Even today, seeing this video, it looks better than some recent PS5 games. The story was also excellent. I was expecting the cliffhanger everyone was talking about the whole time. But then again, I was quite surprised that the game's story actually had a proper conclusion. Sure, it was open to a sequel, but there was nothing that would spoil the story experience for me. And don't even get me started about absolutely stunning environments. The game certainly isn't flawless, it's mostly lacking some of the quality of life improvements we are used to in games these days, I wished the environments were more open, but even so, the game is still great. Even today. If you haven't played it yet, I'd recommend you to do so.
