“Modern gaming is so toxic and lazy!  The Order: 1886 is just a 6 hour shooter that’s mostly cutscenes!  Too many games are charging for DLC that should have been in game!”

Pokemon Snap, a beloved game from the N64 was a 2 hour rail shooter that required either a special printer, or multiple trips to a participating Blockbuster just to view the pictures that you took.  Dollar for dollar, it was also more expensive to purchase, and cheaper to make, than most modern console/on-disc games.

How long is it without the cutscenes?

My playthrough of The Order: 1886 took about 8 hours, though others have blitzed through it in about 5.  There was maybe 90 minutes-2 hours of cutscenes and quick time events in the game, and it was marketed as being a more cinematic experience rather than a gameplay heavy experience.

pokemon snap was a niche title, and most people nowadays don’t seem to really care about the blockbuster photo thing.

the order 1886 is an insanely boring slogfest that promised a load of things and didn’t deliver through on most if any of them. and do i even need to mention destiny?

The point is that the issues that people complain incessantly about now have been around for a long time, it’s just that the complaints are more vocal and accessible now.  

As for The Order: 1886, it delivered what it promised, at least from every pre-release footage and interviews that I saw.  It didn’t promise to revolutionize anything, but to be an experience, and it was.  It wasn’t an incredible experience, but it was what it said it would be, and I enjoyed it enough to fully review the game rather than brush it off.  I did the same with Destiny, which did very little of what it promised, so don’t get me started on that

SU lesson: It is important to take pride in your work, and you should respect other’s efforts and not use them in a way that that person doesn’t approve.

TTG! lesson: TV is good for you, and not watching TV turns you into a zombie.

Please tell me, why do you want to see Papi continue?

I just cannot work on Papi right now.  It doesn’t feel right.

I’ve tried several different ways of setting the Papi update, and no matter what I’ve tried or done nothing looks or feels right.  I guess I’m just having one of those nights where I question why I keep trying with Papi.
