Lmao, I just went there and noticed that the 'Hottest' tab is almost exclusively made up of TO articles. Haha, awesome. XD

Haha... and that sheap-ass clickbait. (720P, 30fps gameplay footage)

Call me crazy, but I'm stoked for an offline, corridor, story based 3rd person shooter!
All the emphasis these days on online and open world play has me bored.

Oh, I thought it was someone given early access to the game for the purpose of promoting/covering it. I certainly wish they'd show more of what you actually do in the game if they have a copy on their hands.
Is it? My intentions were certainly not to upset others. I was just commenting on how fervent some of the defence seems to be for this game seemingly solely because a lot of the enthusiast gamers here and in the media are skeptical about it. It's not even about people whining or anything, just that it seems like they are jumping on any criticism with a passion that you typically don't see for other games.
I'll shut up about it. I do want the game to turn out good like I imagine most of us do.

Still wondering why they chose the 20th to release this.
Why not the 17th?
Aren't 95% of games released on Tuesdays?

Damn straight. The Order is, in a lot of ways, the antithesis of what is fashionable right now in AAA games, and I appreciate it a lot for that reason. No open-world, no "socially-connect" features or multiplayer, no levelling up abilities - just a story-orientated, third-person shooter that will hopefully benefit from some superb pacing beginning to end. I'll happily take a ten hour campaign free of filler over a fifty-plus bloated mess with as many lows as it has peaks.
They wanted to be able to have a simultaneous worldwide release because it's story focused.

Well, generally speaking yes, but perhaps it has some nuances that might make it more interesting to some.

On Friday releases, I like to think that the game is releasing 4 days early rather than 3 days late
I love that the scope is almost as long as the rifle itself.

I'm glad they left the old timey giant scopes. Looks cool
I actually can't remember when the last time I played one was. There's none on PS4 (unless you count TLoU, which I don't since I never played it as a shooter).

Only used guns when absolutely necessary. The game isn't focused on or designed purely around the act of shooting.Then what are your guns used for?

Nah, I've seen worse than this.
Really. Every game doesn't have to be open world. It's getting kinda stale. Give me a closed environment and take more advantage of the hardware.

Well, I used my guns most of the time. I always wonder if playing sneaky style will have a different experience from being a rambo. Looks like I have to try it one day

Guns feel too good not to use in TLoU. As soon as I got spotted I went nuts with my firearms until I could get back into stealth.

Did you play on Easy or something? You don't get anywhere near enough ammo on the higher difficulties to play like Rambo, which is why I'd consider TLOU a Survival Horror game, not a Third Person Shooter.
The referencing of TLOU is interesting because while the first 10 minutes are deeply affecting emotionally, it pretty much consists of

Same goes for the first chapter - one of the criticisms the game gets from some quarters is that after the intensity of the opening sequence the next hour or so drags. There's some merit in that when taken in isolation, but you'd find a similar contrast in many books & movies - it serves a purpose for world building, character introduction & a pretty seamless tutorial - but it too involves a lot of 'pushing up in a joystick'.
People just need to chill.

SOME people need to chill anyway. I think most of it is purposeful at this point. Ether to just get under people's skin or for fanboyish reasons. Some people still hold onto this notion that the Ps4 hath no gamez! So they have to diminish every game that hits the system in some way. I'm only buying a PS4 for Bloodborne and then selling it HUR HUR cuz PS4 hath no games! HURRR. And with The Order they jumped headlong into the early preview reports of less then ateller combat and having to hit R1 to melt some metal. Now that the PSX preview has been positive and the latest trailers have generated hype they have to find whatever angle there is to diminish the possibility that the game could be great.
It's all a bit weird. Who knows. The game could be ass, it could be good, it could be great. No one knows yet. But from all accounts of what is being shown it has great potential to be a really thrilling ride through this world and through this story. We will see. Some folk have a hard time just relaxing and sitting back and enjoying a game for what it is. Instead of what they would rather it be. That goes to reviewers as well.

There's definitely a narrative that the PS4 doesn't have any good exclusives.
I kind of agreed until Driveclub, but a lot of people seem down on that one, too. I didn't buy it until a couple of weeks ago, though, so I missed the launch troubles.
Still, though. Killzone and Knack were pretty bad to mediocre. InFamous was a beautiful game, but I found it to be extremely boring. I don't know anyone who played the PS4 Little Big Planet and I've no interest in it, either. Combine that with Sony's other first party output in recent years--stuff like Puppeteer, Tearaway, God of War: Ascension, Beyond: Two Souls--and you've got a bit of a pattern of beautiful but boring-as-hell games. I think it's understandable that a lot of people are a bit skeptical when it's not Gran Turismo or a game with Naughty Dog at the helm.
I think one of the coolest things about TLOU is that it provides a fun experience regardless of how you choose to play. With that said, even on a harder difficulty, you're probably going to be swimming in ammo in the latter half of the game.

Are you saying the bolded are boring games, or did I misread?
It's a Chrome problem. I use Chrome for everything but I've had to switch to Firefox just to browse gif-heavy GAF.

Eh... I thought they were. Puppeteer looked incredible. I still can't believe what they did on PS3. I thought it was a poor platformer, though. Same story with Tearaway on Vita. Some parts where I cracked a smile, but ultimately just a short and gimmick-filled experience that wasn't particularly memorable. I know Amir0x will probably be in here shortly to rip me apart, but I didn't find it to be very fun.
Meanwhile, I loved Journey, at least, so it's not like I hate art-focused games

While I loved Tearaway, I can understand your reasoning. And gosh I really need to play Journey. When is it coming to PS4 again?
FTFY.
I enjoyed all of those games and didn't find them boring in the slightest.
So for me there's a pattern of beautiful, engaging and a publisher who is attempting to provide a wide-interest spectrum of titles.
Much in the same way I know I'm going to enjoy The Order. I like TPS games, I have a pretty low bar for the gamestyle (I love Army Of Two) and I'm also a fan of cinematic/graphics whore games. From what I've seen of The Order it satisfies all those criteria.
Well I am using Chrome but I'm not going back to Firefox just for this site. Most gif heavy threads are fine but this one is ridiculous. Quoting the same 24mb gif three to four times on one page alone? I mean seriously.

And yet it was easily my GOTY 2014.
Like, I can understand people saying it was lacking content or variety in side missions. But it was released really early on. The base game played like a dream and the main missions were awesome.
Boring? I dunno. Maybe you need to be put on an adrenaline drip or something.
EDIT:
Glad to hear it's not just me. Chrome is dying here.
Honestly it's a bit of a relief that someone else has said this so that I don't get really drunk one night and say it.
But yeah, that's kind of my view of a lot of SCE's stuff too.

Fair enough, but GAF really isn't browsable anymore on Chrome unless you turn off images.
Firefox and other browsers don't even flinch at the gif you're talking about. They happily keep on trucking while it loads instead of just completely shitting the bed until it downloads completely.

I think my main issue with InFamous was that the combat just wasn't fun for me. Hyper-accurate bullet sponge enemies pretty much force you to hide and do the "stop and pop" thing, despite it not playing like typical cover-based shooters. It felt awkward to me. Also, the powers being largely the same and a pain in the ass to switch out didn't make it any more enjoyable. Smoke was just worthless if you wanted to get around the city, too.
Has this thread really moved on to a 'why I think Sony exclusives suck' discussion? I mean, really?
Zefah, you're the same guy who called The Order 1886 a movie and not a game in a previous thread. There's this constant foray of incendiary comments and opinions coming from you. I really don't even see what difference you disliking every PS4 exclusive makes to the discussion regarding The Order 1886 .

lol, is this the order:1886 thread or the sony computer entertainment thread?seriously can not tell.
A lot of Sony inhouse developed games are just fluff show-piece types that value looking good over playing good. But for every KZ, LBP and Puppeteer there is a Demon's Souls, TLOU and Journey. So I don't need them all to appeal to me as long as they support or make a few that do champion deep or exciting gameplay like Bloodborne. I don't know where The Order will fall but it doesn't really have my attention anymore, I'll leave it at that.
And Sony should count there blessings for Yakuza, that is a tremendously fun franchise that should be supported wholeheartedly for western release, it will help diversify their library at the very least.

I started a new game on Easy mode at first and I changed difficulty to Hard in the Options right after I finished the very first chapter. Still, I got plenty of ammo and supply during the playthrough and a trophy for finishing the game on Easy mode. So I guess I was playing Easy mode the whole time
