The Order 1886 - Steampunk,Lycans and cutscenes

So this is going to be a review and a wish list in one so strap up your steampunk gear and get ready to fight lycans and even worse shotgunners!!!

Interesting story I quite liked and the graphics were amazing but damn the gameplay I hated.


The lycans are quite tough when ganged up or against the first lycan elder but then as you progress it's a joke stay in a corner shoot and press x then run and press triangle. Last boss is easy quick time. The shotgun guys are the stuff of nightmares honestly they rush you and one hit you these guys feel like the real bosses. The after credits are interesting too. Marquis is one character i liked but i wanted more explored with him well actually i wanted more explored with all the characters.

I'd like a sequel but I'd like it if they could make it so your a squad in the Knights perhaps and your always in said squad of 4 sometimes 2 in the next game with smoother and fair gameplay and gunplay. Perhaps you take down bosses as a team it would be much better too and would make it a challenge if done right. New game and new characters sounds good to continue on with its interesting lore. The gore effects and stealth features were pretty neat.


For the sequel we should have a new original team in which we can get connected to and find out more on the order and how to get in and more and perhaps we will meet Galahad,Issy and co maybe events panning from this game to the past to a whole lot of it occurring 1887 onward and making it longer would be advantageous. Perhaps set the next further ahead in time. Modern day? Hmm or 100 years later? Not sure as long as everything is smooth and the characters are ones you can get attached too it will be good.

Guns and style are cool, sort of steampunk and like crazy experimental weapons were quite rad. More of these and different varieties be cool in future and more from the blackwater. I didn't even use it in the game it said about use blacksite for some trophies but I missed the part when I was told how the heck I can use it. Either that or I forgot but I am stern to say I was not taught.

The first Lycan Elder boss fight was quite terrifying. 
As for cutscenes. You want to play a game more than to watch things unfold with long cutscenes so make them interactive more so that players are always ready for more button pressing.

The music was quite nice and it really knew how to make the environment a character by delivering dread and tension at times with its score.

It's quite short. 16 chapters will take you 6-8 hours to finish. Depending on difficulty and how much you die. This one i recommend people to try.

I'd rate it 5/10.
