The Order: 1886

[Rorono]

I just checked Amazon in some countries and the Order seems to be doing very well worldwide at the moment (on Amazon), I only checked the highest SKU but the lowest place I've seen that was at 21 in the US, even in Japan it was at 19 though I really don't put much wait into Amazon.jp

It has been doing great for weeks, despite being split into 3 SKUs in many of these amazons. Expect additional boosts with the current press tour going on, people/fans are playing a new demo. Yesterday sweden, today netherlands. More countries to come. And i think the press will cover it today, there's an embargo lifting in some hours, presumably it's for this "new demo".

Do you have a more exact time than "in some hours"?

Though I think that I've already seen a video of part of the new press demo earlier.

Yes that's probably the same video i watched. But i'm hoping we get an actual playthrough of it rather than some snippets like that

hum..i'm not sure but i think it's about 11 hours from now. or 10.

Lol some of the hate this game is getting ridiculous.

Did you hear? PS4's continual success is all hinged on the order doing well. If the order flops then it will all be over for the ps4

It's so funny that a few months ago the order was seen by most as just an appatizer until goty Bloodborne comes out. Back then if order got a 60 meta, I don't think many logical people would of cared.


Now though, all this hype makes me feal it might do even better than bloodborne. Either way killer period for ps4 exclusives.

of course he wouldn't say otherwise, but I wonder if some journalists have review copies already. some of the ones that post on gaf don't seem to have received theirs..or maybe some have but didn't post that they did. i dunno. we'll see
posting it for you cause i don't care about its reviews xD

@Legend this game will "do better" than bloodborne when you aggregate reviews, sales and buzz, but it won't get a metascore as high, that much we've known for a long time.

in sales i expect the order to do better than bloodborne.  i'll personally love bloodborne more but the order is certainly a more mainstream game.

The Order feels more marketable than Bloodborne. Though I expect Bloodborne to be the better of the two.

[Xevross]

So hype. Much spoiler. Very excite. Wow

I think Bloodborne will be better but my hopes for The Order increase every day. Fingers crossed its gonna review really well and make the haters stfu

[Rorono]

Pfft i don't want bloodborne
i think i'll go with toukiden kiwami instead. blasphemy I know

[DD_Bwest]

both will be great games, but i think the order, as a cover based story driven shooter, might hit the casual crowed a bit better then bloodborne

[Rorono]

But i'm not casual >_<

[darkknightkryta]

Maybe Bloodborne will be a sleeper hit.  I think with a bit of marketing it can sell well.

Spoiler for Hidden:

Apparently the game has more than 24 chapters<br />I'm guessing some are smaller though, otherwise that'd be a +20 hour game. I guess it's like U:Golden Abyss where some chapters, specially early on feel somewhat long but then they start flying by and i eventually lost count of how many there were
