We are part of a seasoned group known as The Order, which takes centuries to defend the City of London and humanity against the forces of hell. An ancient and powerful race of beings known as hybrids, grow in number and strength, and our only mission is to stop them. With what? Well, with a huge arsenal of weapons technology: The shotgun bow, termite rifle or telescope, are just some of the weapons you have.
Enjoy an neovictoriano London film version, thanks to the potential of the Playstation 4 giving us the most fascinating immersion you've ever seen. This limited edition includes: The original game The Order: 1884 for PS4 and a Steelbook and Arsenal Pack Knights DLC including an alternate costume for Galahad and a variant of weapon that players can use during a single campaign player.
Literally no game has ever looked this good. It’s strange to even write that, but The Order: 1886 raises the bar so far above its contemporaries that it stands in a class by itself. Joined by a soundtrack that perfects the mood, The Order is a cinematic masterpiece.
You can fault this game for a number of things, as I’ve done here, but you can’t criticize because you haven’t the inclination to appreciate the product for what it is.
The visuals are marvelous and the game has the potential to grow as a franchise but several flaws and its basic gameplay keep it from becoming a masterpiece.
The Order: 1886 is a pretty good game, nothing else. Almost every part can be criticized: the story flows nicely but is extremely predictable, the fights are good, but only the ones with people in them (lycan fights are boring), graphics are gorgeous, but the world feels empty. Sir Galahad's adventure is yet another bit of proof that beauty isn't enough. You should see The Order in motion but do so only after some significant discounts.
What I have a problem with is inconsistent narratives, and "gameplay" that has been so compartmentalised from the "story" that they may as well be in different products.
There are brief moments throughout The Order: 1886 when it’s clearly striving for excellence, which only makes the end result more tragic. It’s easy to toss aside a game that looks bad or is full of bugs, but The Order feels like it should be a good game.
The Order: 1886 is a terrible game. Not because it’s broken or made without skill. Certainly not because it’s an average-length, story-driven shooter with minimal replay value. It’s just a bad game, forgettable in every conceivable way and safely ignored by all but the most ardent Trophy hunters.
