  • The Order 1886 reviews are beginning to roll out with middling scores, with pros being absolutely stunning presentation, strong narrative and good characters, and cons being relatively average third person shooting mechanics and a heavy reliance upon QTEs and cutscenes.  This isn’t surprising given the game’s marketing as a cinematic experience, and with an average run time of 9-11 hours, (there was a playthrough of 5, but all other sources and reviews are putting it around 10) it seems proper for a cinematic narrative heavy game.

    It comes out tomorrow, and I still plan on getting it because not only is the subject matter something that I love, but the reviews and expectations are lining up with what I expected, unlike certain other games of late.  Once I finish playing through the game I’ll write up a full review.
