As always, people angry or salty at review scores are merely seeking validation for their own pre-conceived notions of a video game, which is not the purpose of a subjective review.
This game looks alright and I'd likely find enjoyment out of it but I agree with some early posts - after watching a decent chunk of footage from the early stages, I am getting heavy vibes of The Order: 1886, in that they both feel like responses to Uncharted 1 or Mass Effect 1 or games from another generation.
If a game is going to score high on review scales these days I feel like it has to offer more than that.
If I had an Xbox One I'd be eager to play it but the 75-80 score seems fair and having read the more negative reviews the criticisms seem valid.
I do not understand this comparison. I have heard it for many, MANY months now and it makes as little sense as the first time I heard it as it does when I read it from your comment.
The Order: 1886's developers saw gameplay as a side effect of story. That was literally their line, gameplay was there because it had to be there, not because it was truly a priority and you can see from the game that game design suffered as a result. From all that I've read, Quantum Break is actually very enjoyable, gameplay wise and the story is interesting.
