Well, the game does what it was meant to do. Show the awesome performance the PS4 is capable of when you only use 66% of the screen, keep it to narrow playable areas and cover it all in film grain so you can't work out the finer details of the meshes and textures. Well done cheeseburger with fries on table 18!
Maybe they're English werewolves. If so, it would sound something like: "Sorry we got bit had a curse, we'll be hiding while you try and deal with your corrupt order. If you need anything, just pop a mug with the water over fire and we'll be there. If you kill us, we'll get a little mad, but there's only three of us so do whatever. I'll go nibble on some scones while hiding."
You know what would've increased a lot of gameplay? Add in more supernatural monsters, like Vampires, Redcaps, varying types of Witches; even some Irish monsters like Revenants, Dullahans, and even the Nuckelavee. Even include a bit of Open-World exploration, like in Dragon Age: Inquisition, and have the resistance thing come up at least by the mid-point of the game's story, and have the ending be the results of what Galahad fought for.
If they remove the black bars, the PS would shit bricks. They are not there for the "movie experience" as they claimed, they are there to avoid rendering almost 1/4 of the game
Gustavo Kaplon I guess your right, I haven't upgraded from a PS2 and PC has spoiled me thus far... I just used to having everything rendered and not having a crutch.
The Evil Within is actually a good game though, unlike this garbage. In fact, I don't think the Evil Within ever pretended to be a movie, especially with how nonsensical and confusing the story was.

Well The Ordeal (insert number here) is exactlly that, except for the fact that Watchdogs was actually an unpolished gem encrusted in a thick layer of buttery deadline release rush whereas The Oditty ended up being a piece of coal wrapped in granite. You have to grind the outer layer so much that by the time you start enjoying theres twelve minutes of gameplay left in the story.
Never. Why do you think these last few E3s all the games shown are trailers and not gameplay footage.... or if it is gameplay footage, it's a scripted set piece.
It doesn't help that that's not 100% true. I love great gameplay and all, but if the game looks like complete shit, 9/10 times I'm not gonna enjoy it. Of course, my standards for shit graphics are a fair bit lower than your average person... And there is that 1/10 of games, like DF, which make up for it with glorious gameplay once you learn what does what.
I got to play this game for free and I was _still_ torn between, "Wow these levels have a lot of detail yet no reason to look around" and "OH SWEET LORD PLEASE GIVE ME A RUN BUTTON"
It really depends on your taste. I love his videos and I laughed at this one, but truthfully I loved every second of this game and felt I got my money's worth
MadCrainProductions nope. I'm glad I played it and I'm halfway through second play through. Just because you think it's worthless doesn't mean everyone else does.
Hey, if it means I can subscribe to a channel just for Yahtzee I'm all for it. Never watched the other lot and checked back manually once a week for my ZP fix. Now the channel delivers it straight to my subscription feed!
... Then 7 years later I picked this up on sale while actively looking for a single player game that I could just veg out to. A couple of hours in and I'm thinking... Huh! I'm enjoying this. No looking around for hidden trinkets or meandering around a bland and lifeless open world that takes me 30 minutes just to reach the next marker on my map. I'm an odd one, I love that the worl is densely detailed and I can just soak it up. Just a straight forward linear single player campaign that I'm enjoying.

Well, everyone knew that this game was perceived to attract consumers by mooning the PS4's graphics and capabilities but when all the fog settles, it's a game that's been cut and stuck together so many times you can actually taste the games it's ripping off from as you play it. It basically tried to say "Hey, this is what cover based generic storyline shooters would look like if we had done them on a PS4". All that would've crawled under that carpet of awful releases if only they had priced it based on the overall worthiness instead of how many hours the poor sods put into polishing and adding unnecessary detail and sacrificing fundamental aspects of gameplay in the end TLDR: It's an expensive poster that shows off the PS4's power
Judging by the trailers of The Order: 1886, I was expecting it to be either like Assassin's Creed combined with Just Cause 2 or be like Blood where instead of being a generic shooter where you only get a pistol, a shotgun and an assault rifle, you use more creative weapons like a flare gun, sticks of dynamite, and even a voodoo doll.
"Just a shame it had to be attached to such an UTTERLY INCONSEQUENTIAL GAME! Like a birthday card tied to an unsecured balloon!" I adore your similes and metaphors, Yahtzee.
i don't know. i liked heavy rain, and beyond two souls (while depressing) i still a verry good game in my eyes. fahrenheit was garbage though , i admit that.
NIELS MICHIELS was Beyond Two Souls depressing because the writer was David "i love rape scenes, inconsistencies, forgot the script, failure of game design" Cage and not someone who is competent to max out the potential of the story?

I'm curious to know how this game is doing sales-wise, since that's probably the most important factor that'll affect how game devs will go on about making future games.
At least Ryse was released around the launch of the PS4. The good (or at least decent) games that have come out this generation on the PS4 like Shadow of Mordor, Alien Isolation and so on just show how bland The Order is.
James Oldfield That doesn't mean a damn thing with games this unsubstantial. Anyway, sure the graphics are detailed, but all the environments are just a muddy gray and unappealing, so what's the point?
Simply the most advanced interactive movie to date. Film a let's play, edit out the quicktime events and have a flawles let's play and it all comes together. Gaming as a wholle might be headed to a darkish place if stuff like this continues~
a true steampunk game would be a game with a huge world that you can explore with your own airship/submarine and build your own weapons and robotic minions.
Thank you someone fucking understands it! Steampunk snd the like is not an excuse to put guns alone in the past. If you want a good steampunk game try Bioshock (well dieselpunk but close enough) or Dishonoured
The Great Me-sama Codename S.T.E.A.M.? More like Codename F.L.O.P! Unintelligent systems should've just focused on the SMT X Fire Emblem Crossover and made a new Advanced Wars game on the 3ds. lmao
Lets have a seemingly interesting steampunk setting in an era not covered by video games, throw in some H.P Lovecraft and excellent voice actors with an interesting plot, and Tesla, which some pretty awesome weapons and gadgets. Instead we got HOLY ASS FUCKING TITS! THIS GAME IS GORGEOUS AS FUCK! WOW! LOOK AT THAT FUCKING DETAIL! OH MAH GAWD LOOK AT THEM MUSTACHE! RAPTOR BABY JEZUS, THIS IS AMAZING! Wait, what? No co-op? Hmmm.. that's okay! I'm sure the game is an epic adventur- what, wait, what? It's only 6 hours long?... Uhmm... okay, is there multiplay- WHAT?! NO MULTIPLAYER?! ...you sure this is 6 hours? Can't be, if this is a single-player game only it's got be like Last of Us, or Uncharted, right? 15 hours of awesomesauce? ...no? well, at least it's FU- WHAT?! ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?! THIS IS SONY'S RYSE?! ...................................................................................................................................
+Downsider24 *Werewolves =/= Cosmic Horror. That's more of traditional gothic horror, Bloodborne gets away with being called Lovecraftian because half way through it turns out everything was being run by space-octopi.
The Order 1886 is what happens when developers are all so wrapped up in their own bravado that they can't see the game games. Yeah, you made it, it looks good and it works, but it's boring. Every review shows this. The gameplay is boring.
I was so hyped for this game, it was going to be the reason I bought a PS4 originally. Then I found out how shit it was, thankfully before getting the console, and became hyped for the ZP review. Yahtzee, on the other hand, did not disappoint.
I bought this game on release day at a store that was shutting down and got 40-50% off, played through it over the weekend and sold it to GameStop, making a small profit..still wasn't worth it..
Though I really enjoy the PS4, the Wii U is still my favorite (Oh gawd do I hate saying this) "current gen" console, probably simply due to its fun and also beautiful games. Nintendo Land is actually a really good launch title. Of course, it's not too fun on your lonesome, but it's a really good game that even my grandmother can play. Literally. She has played Nintendo Land with me and other family members on multiple occasions.
GoldenGamerPro I don't know anything about the game yet, so can't say much about it, but it seems pretty rough and stupid to ban a game because of that.
Y'know, most of the time I feel I need take everything Yahtzee says with a grain of salt or more, since this is in it's essence a comedy show and it seems like he often criticizes a game more harshly because of that, take Sonic Generations as a prime example. But, at the same time, from what I've heard others say about this game, I somewhat want to believe this wholeheartedly.
What is fun or good about being forced to walk like a snail to point A to point B half of the game with an uninteresting story covered up by bland "pretty" graphics that are going to be outdated sooner or later?
Simple answer consistent pay. He would probably have more money if he went solo and was paid based on his views, but this way he has a predictable schedule and predictable pay so if he ever buys something he can do it confidently on credit and no when he will be able to pay it back
***** does anyone else think instead of bringing on more members the escapist channel should start a new playlist where zero punctuation does let's plays of the games before posting his review for us? If hes this hilarious summing up games he obviously found painful to play I kind of want to hear what he'd say while enduring them
The moment I was the queens head turn reptile I started laughing so hard I could not in good faith see the review to the end and had to watch it all over a few minutes later..
***** One day lord GabeN will return from the great steam cloud in the sky and bring upon the Earth Half-Life 3. We will then be saved from the Origin heathens and console peasants.
Ah, yes. I remember Infamous. Still play Infamous and Infamous 2. Will I ever play The Order? Well, my first game on the system is Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, which is STILL fun so... no.
Imagine being so incredibly incompetent that you managed to make killing a vampire with a lightning gun in a shootout in victorian london BORING.
1:35 * funfact* the invaders only sped up because of a bug... the less enemy were on screen, the faster the old processor could handle the movement

They should have called this game "Do Not Order Even for $18.86"
I don't like the order because who would pay 100$ to watch a movie
It was $60 here and I didn't mind paying it at all. If they released a second one I'd throw another $60 at it with complete faith that I'd enjoy it.
Where the fuck do you live?

Jordan Jenkins Most likely Australia.
Games are pretty expensive over there.
Ronald McSchlonald isnt there a tax on them over there? because your government bans alot of games so you have the import the things

At least Ryse was released around the launch of the PS4. The good (or at least decent) games that have come out this generation on the PS4 like Shadow of Mordor, Alien Isolation and so on just show how bland The Order is.
James Oldfield That doesn't mean a damn thing with games this unsubstantial. Anyway, sure the graphics are detailed, but all the environments are just a muddy gray and unappealing, so what's the point?
James Oldfield Its a shame how hard graphics are pushed at the expense of quality :(
Simply the most advanced interactive movie to date. Film a let's play, edit out the quicktime events and have a flawles let's play and it all comes together. Gaming as a wholle might be headed to a darkish place if stuff like this continues~
Hi there from the future, Yahtzee just named The Order: 1886 his 5th Worst Game of the Decade
5:06 To quote Hellsing Ultimate Abridged: "Aahhh, I can never have sex again!"
uhhh is funkmarbleteehee gonna be a word now
Yep
Funkmarbleteehee- a game selling itself on a unique premise but ends up being spunkgargleweewee
i see so are we gonna see a lot of these types of games
love that bit when he compares the console exclusive to the trophy wife.
I know this sounds random but The Order: 1886 looks like a you are playing a boring museum game.
at 2:43 is the best part xD god i cant believe how much i laughed and it was a hearty laugh at that...lol
a true steampunk game would be a game with a huge world that you can explore with your own airship/submarine and build your own weapons and robotic minions.
Look at Guns of Icarus.
Thank you someone fucking understands it! Steampunk snd the like is not an excuse to put guns alone in the past. If you want a good steampunk game try Bioshock (well dieselpunk but close enough) or Dishonoured
Channels such as these are why youtube is great!
I'd buy it for the year's supply of Twix.
Probably cheaper to.
THE VIDEO SERIOUSLY STARTED BUFFERING WHEN YOU MENTIONED BUFFERING!
Ahhh nobody's gonna believe me
you want steampunk?
Codename: S.T.E.A.M
MECHA ABE LINCOLN YEEE
Yesssss.
The Great Me-sama Codename S.T.E.A.M.? More like Codename F.L.O.P! Unintelligent systems should've just focused on the SMT X Fire Emblem Crossover and made a new Advanced Wars game on the 3ds. lmao
AmericanBuizel I wouldn't have minded that last one. Advanced Wars rocked
It sounded interesting at first but really it's just another cartoon kiddy game.
Play Hektor Yatzee! Mostly because I want your review before I get it, you're one of the only honest people left!
Lets have a seemingly interesting steampunk setting in an era not covered by video games, throw in some H.P Lovecraft and excellent voice actors with an interesting plot, and Tesla, which some pretty awesome weapons and gadgets.
Instead we got HOLY ASS FUCKING TITS! THIS GAME IS GORGEOUS AS FUCK! WOW! LOOK AT THAT FUCKING DETAIL! OH MAH GAWD LOOK AT THEM MUSTACHE! RAPTOR BABY JEZUS, THIS IS AMAZING!
Wait, what? No co-op? Hmmm.. that's okay! I'm sure the game is an epic adventur- what, wait, what? It's only 6 hours long?... Uhmm... okay, is there multiplay- WHAT?! NO MULTIPLAYER?! ...you sure this is 6 hours? Can't be, if this is a single-player game only it's got be like Last of Us, or Uncharted, right? 15 hours of awesomesauce? ...no? well, at least it's FU- WHAT?! ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!
THIS IS SONY'S RYSE?! ...................................................................................................................................
Its Sony's Ryse.

*Werewolves =/= Cosmic Horror.
That's more of traditional gothic horror, Bloodborne gets away with being called Lovecraftian because half way through it turns out everything was being run by space-octopi.
And so begins the reign of the FunkMarbleTeehee
The Order 1886 is what happens when developers are all so wrapped up in their own bravado that they can't see the game games. Yeah, you made it, it looks good and it works, but it's boring. Every review shows this. The gameplay is boring.
+Philp Yung and also putting the barest minimum of imagination.
Loved the Deadwood reference

*Human-centipeded together
More like Order it when it's $18.86
HEYOOO
That seems like a lot of money for this game. What a bad joke. Don't ever become a comedian or else I'll be there and Boo.
The Order: 1886, also known as "We had an idea for a game, but gave up halfway and just did Advanced Warfare."
I was so hyped for this game, it was going to be the reason I bought a PS4 originally. Then I found out how shit it was, thankfully before getting the console, and became hyped for the ZP review. Yahtzee, on the other hand, did not disappoint.
The one thing we can always count on from crappy games; an AWESOME review.
5:01
This is why I love Zero Punctuation..
Is The Order 1886 50% Off yet?
I bought this game on release day at a store that was shutting down and got 40-50% off, played through it over the weekend and sold it to GameStop, making a small profit..still wasn't worth it..
The Wii U prioritizes fun. The Xbox One and PS4 prioritize graphics.
Wii U is actually a *VIDEO* *GAME* console while the xbox one and ps4 are extremely underpowered PCs
The funny thing is all the first party games released on the Wii U are 1080p 60fps!!
The Wii U prioritizes a gimmick.
Dan Armour zelda, mario, smash, starfox.
Yeah, "gimmicks" :)
Though I really enjoy the PS4, the Wii U is still my favorite (Oh gawd do I hate saying this) "current gen" console, probably simply due to its fun and also beautiful games. Nintendo Land is actually a really good launch title. Of course, it's not too fun on your lonesome, but it's a really good game that even my grandmother can play. Literally. She has played Nintendo Land with me and other family members on multiple occasions.
Whoa, Escapist has played (or at least heard of) Dark Void. What a trip
Hotline Miami 2 review next?
Nope, it's majoras mask 3d now on the escapist :D
Unless he finds an illegal way to download it, he can't.
banned in Australia : (
GoldenGamerPro Oh shit, really? Damn…
All because of that one sexual scene
GoldenGamerPro I don't know anything about the game yet, so can't say much about it, but it seems pretty rough and stupid to ban a game because of that.
great "launch title" comparison!
AngryJoe said it. ModernWarNegro said it. And now Ben said it.
It's official. This game sucks.
Talk about 'Ouch'. No mercy here, folks. Except for the bit about how pretty the whole thing looks
Y'know, most of the time I feel I need take everything Yahtzee says with a grain of salt or more, since this is in it's essence a comedy show and it seems like he often criticizes a game more harshly because of that, take Sonic Generations as a prime example. But, at the same time, from what I've heard others say about this game, I somewhat want to believe this wholeheartedly.
take his word on this one, its not good, at all
What is fun or good about being forced to walk like a snail to point A to point B half of the game with an uninteresting story covered up by bland "pretty" graphics that are going to be outdated sooner or later?
***** Eh, it depends on the game. He also reviews a lot of games that are just not his type of game, but are games that people expect him to review.
I'll probably go with Advanced Warefare, because... PC controls. Since I hate using shooters with controllers.
I hate using PC Controls on shooters and all games in general.
CyberLance26
At least on PC you can choose to take a controller.
But mouse is much better for aiming.
At this rate, they should just rename this channel "Zero Punctuation". Not that that's a problem or anything.
This is why Ben crossbow is one of the best reviewers or critics in the industry. I think this is the funniest review he's ever done.
He's done plenty funnier ones, like too human or ride to hell
why are you still on the Escrapist?
Extra money and what not
Simple answer consistent pay. He would probably have more money if he went solo and was paid based on his views, but this way he has a predictable schedule and predictable pay so if he ever buys something he can do it confidently on credit and no when he will be able to pay it back
GeakGuySheldon And i also believe the escapist pays for some of the games he reviews, so thats an advantage too.
SmileyCirrusOz yes they pay for definitely the new ones not sure about old or retro reviews
***** does anyone else think instead of bringing on more members the escapist channel should start a new playlist where zero punctuation does let's plays of the games before posting his review for us? If hes this hilarious summing up games he obviously found painful to play I kind of want to hear what he'd say while enduring them
Want to fight Werewolves in a vaguely Victorian setting, play Bloodborne :)
Haha. I love when i dont get hyped for a game that turns out to be shit!
Baron Flaps might be my new go-to game ID.
3:56 for the last time, Frankenstein is the scientist, not the monster
The moment I was the queens head turn reptile I started laughing so hard I could not in good faith see the review to the end and had to watch it all over a few minutes later..
Miss me don't ya?
yes cole yes we do
That last comment about the hippo tho... 😂😂😂
Check mate, PS4.
Long live the PC Master Race!
Hail GabeN
Pelle Olsson How stupid am I, if I ask what "Gaben" is?
***** One day lord GabeN will return from the great steam cloud in the sky and bring upon the Earth Half-Life 3. We will then be saved from the Origin heathens and console peasants.
"Us vs. them! Us vs. them! Get out if you're not with us!"

Good point ^_^
Cup of Mung? Wow I thought I'd heard it all but that one is new to me!
Ah, yes. I remember Infamous. Still play Infamous and Infamous 2.
Will I ever play The Order? Well, my first game on the system is Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, which is STILL fun so... no.
Same! When I finish all three it's on to Last Of Us...
I have found aYahtzee playermodel on the GMOD workshop. My life is partly complete.
Incidentally, this game is actually emblematic of what the PS4 is: a pretty looking piece of shit.
