A big-budget game that a grown man with a lot of demands on his time can finish in a weekend. What a fucking concept. Looking forward to this one.

Actually, I'm in exactly your boat. Am looking forward to this as well.

I agree wholeheartedly with you.

 

[cormack12]

Regarding replayability, wasn't there some sort of non fail state QTE's whereby the story could progress even if the QTE was failed but with a different outcome? I'm on mobile at the moment but I remember it was explained with some sort of knife scene. You could knock it out of his hand or not - anyone link it? Anyway, besides that the main point is that maybe there is some replayability in there of small details within the story.....?!?!

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

My preorder copy just came in the mail.

I haven't followed a single thing since announcement trailer.

Anything I should know before diving in?

WHY IS EVERYONE GETTING IT EARLY BUT ME!?

 

[cool_dude]

I'm sure it's possible I could get 10 to 12 hours out of it if I did it on hard. The question is, does it have replay value to go back through it again? I did with all of the Uncharted games.

For those people saying that it's short and sweet, why buy at full price when you can borrow, rent, or pay it forward? Especially those that say they are too busy for long games, can't you pretend it will come out later and play it for cheap? It's still "Day One" when you put it into your console.

Can't argue with that stance. Games like this have their place.

Ummm... why? Some of us don't value our entertainment by the number of hours. It's all relative based on where you are in your life, what you are looking for in games and what you can afford

Yes! Why?

Spoiler

I'll receive it tomorrow

Very nice video interview with Adrea Pessino:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=mLYiMregvDw


He talked both about technical stuff and general overview of specific parts of the game [nature of the charachter of Galahad for example].

And some of us do. I always choose what movie I'm going to see by running time @ the theater. I also choose my books by weight.

Stop using logic damnit! We all you know are the 1% with your $70 dinners and fancy stouts

 

[RE_Player]

I am a happy man.

 

[Loudninja]

Everyone here will have the game even before Friday at this rate.

 

[Imru’ al-Qays]

And some of us do. I always choose what movie I'm going to see by running time @ the theater. I also choose my books by weight.

There's a certain threshold below which you would indeed do that. You wouldn't pay $15 to see a 30-minute movie. You wouldn't pay $15 for a 50-page novel.

I still won't! I preordered digital T_T

The digital future does not allow for breaking street date.

 

[loaf of bread]

My Best Buy preorder says "order status unavailable" anyone else?

I'm worried it won't arrive by friday and I'll have to wait till Monday.

You wouldn't shoot a policeman and steal his hat

Ahh, now I see the point of hardbound copies...

Stop using logic damnit! We all you know are the 1% with your $70 dinners and fancy stouts

But now I'm back home having $5 sandwiches and tap water! :/

[ahm998]

This game blow my mind and i finished 3 chapters until now

 

[Krusenstern]

WHY IS EVERYONE GETTING IT EARLY BUT ME!?

If that makes you feel better, mine hasn't been shipped either.

 

[TheWorthyEdge]

The Order 1886 |OT| We're really lycan it!


I said this before and this doesn't take a jab at anything!

 

[fierrotlepou]

The Order: 1886 |OT| Ready at Dawn. Done by Mid-day.

Does anyone have any idea what the real title'll be?

This has to be the title. It's a win-win situation.

 

[Hugstable]

The digital future does not allow for breaking street date.

This future sucks!

 

[Haines]

Hard difficulty, aim assist off, camera bias on seem like the ideal settings. Enjoy!

Exactly what I was looking.for.

I tip my hat good sir

 

[Loudninja]

The soundtrack is up on the ps store.

It's a game for people who can grow facial hair... Real facial hair...

 

[RE_Player]

Small patch. Only around 30MB.

 

[Drewfonse]

Small patch. Only around 30MB.

Maybe it makes the game longer.

 

[Skux]

Just preordered, I'll have to have it sitting on my desk while I'm waiting for work to end.

And no, for the sake of the order (huehue) of the thread, the OT title won't reference the game length. I had no idea people got so into making up clever subtitles for games. I even had to get a mod to change the title of my first OT (for Apotheon) because the QWOP reference was derailing the thread.

Good man. Curious, what OT title are you going with? I liked the ones with the lycan puns

 

[sackninja]

What is camera bias? It's been metnioned a few times but I don't want to read through the whole thread to find out what it is.

 

[Cyborg]

Maybe it makes the game longer.

You suck...Why so salty

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

Why are people recommending aim assist off? Just to make it harder? A lot of console shooters play better with aim assist.

 

[Drewfonse]

Oh relax, I was kidding. I'll have it on Friday.

 

[NullPointer]

The game is longer if you use letterboxed hours.

 

[Broadbandito]

Ugh, I hate everyone that is getting it early. *shakes fist*

 

[Gestault]

It's switching which shoulder the camera lines-up behind.

That'll still be a surprise

What is camera bias? It's been metnioned a few times but I don't want to read through the whole thread to find out what it is.

Camera bias lets you switch the over-the-shouder view by pressing left or right on the touchpad (like pressing R3 (or is it L3?) in Uncharted games).

Some don't, GTAV had terrible aim assist that just locked onto enemies. Took all the fun out of shooting.

 

[NullPointer]

A lot of console shooters play better with aim assist.

I can't think of one. Its the very first thing I disable whenever I have the option.

GTA5 might have counted here but not any more since they patched in the ability to tweak the acceleration and deadzones.

to support the developers? I have been following this game for some time and I dont think I will enjoy int any more with a smaller price tag . I want to see what RAD can do with a sequel so I will support them by paying full price.

 

[Experien]

My Amazon order says Feb 20.

It depends on how heavy handed the aim assist is for me. If it's subtle I don't mind it. It's the kind of thing I need to try for myself before I turn it off. Just wondering what the reasoning is for recommending it here.

 

[Gestault]

Considering the recommendation was that others might want to turn off aim-assist to extend play-time, and not because the feature was causing problems with the gameplay, I don't see why it should matter.

Imagine the scenes if RaD stealth locked the final 3 chapters or something for an unlock download a day before release

Eh? People who played the game (OsirisBlack & Rapier) made those recommendations based on what they found enjoyable. Has nothing to do with length.
