The editors liked
Unbelievable graphics
Compelling though cliche-packed story
Solid shooting with some brilliant weapons
It's a real looker
Lovingly crafted alternate Victorian London
Interesting concept and generally clever storytelling
Sky-high production values
It's undeniably pretty – There is no getting around it
The game does look very nice
The story starts well – Ok that's about as far as it gets
But there is remnants of a good idea that could be salvaged in the sequel
Good voice acting – The dialogue
Looks gorgeous
Deeply atmospheric
Fabulous steampunk gadgets
Weapons and general vibe
Pleasing storyline and characterisations
The editors didn't like
Too reliant on quick-time events
Frustrating insta-fail stealth
Restrictive and unimaginative gameplay
Too much emphasis on watching over playing
The shooting that makes up the bulk of the gameplay is dull and uninspired
Change of pace moments
Particularly stealth
Are poorly executed
In short
It's just not fun
Ends too soon and with no closure or satisfaction
Very linear
No multiplayer or replay value
Lazy devs
This is a tricky one without spoiling the game
But there is a fight early in the game which is then replicated later on. You could also apply this to the lycan interactions. Every time is the same
Empty streets – Where is everybody? AC
Unit
Far too many quick time events
Cutscene heavy
Third-person shooter gameplay lacklustre compared to its peers
Doesn't make the most of its best ideas
Totally wasted environments offer no interactivity
Lovingly crafted alternate Victorian London, Interesting concept and generally clever storytelling, Sky-high production values
Ends too soon and with no closure or satisfaction, Very linear, No multiplayer or replay value
If it sounds like I've really taken against The Order, that's not entirely the case. I enjoyed it quite a lot while I played it - I like the characters, the presentation is in many ways utterly incredible, and the story is one that works for me.But it's a...

Astounding graphics/details/textures, Facial expressions make the characters life-like, Easy to enjoy cover-and-shoot gameplay
All you could interact with (in the environment) are papers, Story is somewhat weak and common
The Order: 1886 certainly has the elements of a great game, although maybe not enough to satisfy a wide range of gamers. The game is story-driven, which means there are no chances of free-roaming, definitely not the open world type of game, and gives more...
Abstract: Imagine a world which has an elite order of knights in an alternate Victorian-era London where myths and technology co-exist. Welcome to The Order: 1886. You play Sir Galahad, one of the Arthurian knights who lives forever (Holy Grail, anyone?) in this ...
Unparallelled graphics quality, Excellent animation and motion capture, Engaging storyline albeit too short, Good controls
Too short: Finished the game for 8 hours at Normal difficulty, Very linear story and game play, No end game content or activities (unless you're farming Trophies), No multiplayer coop or any multiplayer features
This game needs a lot of attention and appreciation. It may be one of the shortest games we've played, but it's certainly one of the bests. The game deserves a shot to be in your shelf if you care about graphics, design and story. However, if you're after...

The basic conflict at the heart of The Order: 1886 is that considerations for a cinematic approach are prioritized above the needs of basic gameplay. Its best aspects are its stunning looks, atmosphere, and style – which are truly fantastic – and entertai...
Abstract: Like everyone else, our hands-on time with The Order 1886 at GameStart was regrettably short, made even shorter by the cut-scene right in the middle of the demo. Basically all it left me with were shooting gallery segments and one scripted event, so I thi...
Gráficos, ambiente, diseño, B.S.O. y efectos de sonidos simplemente perfectos, Una historia muy interesante, mezcla de realidad y hechos históricos con fantasía y ciencia ficción, Algunos combates intensos, sobre todo en la recta final del título, Que gra
Altibajos en su guión, perdiéndose un poco el ritmo narrativo, Jugabilidad y manejo del personaje que no se adapta a los juegos de hoy en día, Nulidad en sus modos de juego y combates que no suponen un reto al jugador, Investigar pistas y fases de “infilt
Es una verdadera pena que el gran juego exclusivo de SONY de 2015 no haya llegado a los estándares de calidad a los que esta plataforma nos tiene acostumbrados. No solo hablo de rejugabilidad y duración (que su modo historia realmente no necesita más minu...

Lo bueno, Gráficos asombrosos, Historia atractiva, Recreación de gran calidad de la era victoriana
El diseño de niveles y mecánicas de juego son repetitivas
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask es una videojuego estupendo. Aun cuando se trata de un juego que constantemente se siente triste y solitario, ofrece una serie de historias tan cautivadoras que resultan placenteras de jugar. Por otra parte, su ingenio...
