    Short but sweet

    I think this is probably the best looking game I've ever played, the characters, environment and lighting were all amazing.

    The story was interesting and well acted, though it was absolutely too short, not just the game but the actual story, they could have added more to make it more believable.

    I really don't like console shooters and this one is no different, it worked well enough and there was enough interesting weapons and variety; I just hate aiming with a controller so that is just me; there are a few points in the game where they send armoured opponents at you and these where the only spots I died during combat and each time I ran into these guys it was 10-15 deaths which drove me nuts, other than that I rarely ever died other than a few goofed quicktime events.

    It's short, but I still think it was well worth playing.

Yup Werewolf's are a issue in this world and that tidbit...

      REVIEW: The Order 1886 [PS4]Written By Tyler Pederson Sometimes reviews come easily. Often, I finish playing a game and have concise feelings on it, can put that to paper, and go from there. When I finished playing The Order 1886, I can’t say that was the case. That’s not a bad thing, and by no means is The Order a bad game, it’s simply not a very good one. It’s unfortunate that the game was put under such a spotlight, because taken for exactly what it is, a new first pa...
