I know they think the black bars at the top and bottom make the experience more cinematic, and it surely helped with performance... but i'd really like it if they dropped that in the upcoming sequel. It's absolutely unnecessary in the eyes of the gamer, the one experiencing it. It's just so much space of the screen that goes to waste.

This gamer disagrees.

It's not the black bars, it's the wider field of view. It's clear that they didn't just letterbox the image, but built the game with the wider screen in mind. Because even the simple over-the-shoulder shots look more cinematic than anything I've seen in a game before due to the "camera" framing. And the environments look immense, dwarfing the characters, due to the way the screen is displayed.

I think the wider image was key to attaining that "filmic vision" they're going for. And in my opinion it's striking, gorgeous, unmistakably The Order.

And I highly doubt future games in the series will ditch this style.
 
okay so people didn't see his save file with hours played but instead looked at the time differences between the first trophy that he got and the last trophy? come on.

Agreed , the gifs in this thread show why they went with that aspect ratio .
 
I love the kind of framing that the game is using and wouldn't change it for anything.

By the way, about the topic of ethnic minorities in the game

I for one can´t wait to try this on a friends 21:9 tv, also thinking of getting one in that aspect ratio for my next tv wich should be soon i hope.

These guys did it right imo, seems they decided early on what they wanted and then designed it around those goals.

The gifs make me drool.

Sucks i´ll have to wait a week to get it myself. :/

Yup, that's exactly what got people to freak out. And the thing is this game has no chapter trophies so there was no way to indicate anything.

Uh, that's not the way this works.

It's still a full 1080p image just with 280 horizontal black lines. The only way you're going to get this to work on a 21:9 screen is to get the TV to zoom in, which will probably cut off subtitles etc. and totally destroy the image quality.

As far as i understood the game is in 21:9 aspect ratio which would mean you get no borders on a 21:9 screen, i might be wrong i´m no expert but i think you got it wrong here, 1080p has nothing to do with aspect ratio here.
 
Man I hope it is at least 10 hours. That's the length I expect from single player only 'cinematic' games with low replay value that costs $60. At least I've always been skeptical about this game with all the crap unveils so it won't disappoint me if this too fails to impress :P

Don't worry. There are enough textures in this game to last you 25.3 hours. :P

It's about per pixel mapping. If the tv is 2516x1080 and you decide to zoom in and cut off the bars then the game is going to look blurred.

Anything less then 9 hours gameplay is instant garbage bin material. How's a game supposed to develop soul in 8 hours?

Are you for real right now?

I usually agree with your posts so I'm going to assume you are kidding. That just seems like something I would read in an order thread as serious.

omg

Stop plagiarising my gimmick. I'm already having trouble transitioning to a new one. Character work isn't easy. You'd fit right in at Naughty Dog. They also have no sense of shame or honour.
 
Maybe Andrea should stop spending so much time working out, and more time making games. Because, you know, maybe then he wouldn't have accidentally made a movie.
 
Hey Verendus, mind if I PM you with some of my guesses about the story? I'm not looking for direct answers, just wondering how close my ideas about the plot are based on what you've played.
 
See? If he spent more time making the game and less time pumping iron and drinking eggshakes the Order would be longer

Priorities

Damnit I was beaten!
