Eurogamer - The Order: 1886 review

Added: 19.02.2015 13:10 | 2 views | 0 comments

Short, shallow yet utterly sumptuous, The Order: 1886 is a narrative-driven shooter that already feels dated. In video games, the term 'cinematic' can cut both ways. It speaks of the grand sweep of Naughty Dog's Uncharted, where players are washed away in the tightly scripted matinee-idol action of Nathan Drake. It speaks, too, of the frictions that have existed since such lavishly animated Laser Disc adventures as Dragon's Lair and Space Ace, where players are pushed to the sidelines as the spectacle unfurls before them, asking for only occasional minor prompts.
