and poor ready at dawn.  even if the game was way to short it was a good game.  i'd like a sequel or even just another new ip from them.  the hard work of getting the engine working is done.  sony should have greenlighted a (relatively) cheap sequel where they demanded a certain gameplay length but did nothing to improve visuals over the first game.   i would have bought it.
The Order had potencial but failed to deliver...

- Story was a big important part and they just not finished it to a game... when the story start to get good it ends from absolute nothing like we will end here... there is no ending lol
- there is no bosses (the same boss twice in game)
- Low pacing movements with little gunplay parts

Well I can ahead but the game is really mediocre in the state they released it.

> 207k
Looked through the rest of the data and dang, RDR sold like crazy. Alan Wake did pretty well considering it released the same day as RDR.

@Max King of the Wild

It is the complete opposite of The Last of Us.

- The Last of Us has a end... and a pretty great one... you don't need even a sequel because it was perfect like it ended (The Last of Us 2 will most use different plot/characters)... it was like a great movie ending.
- There are two bosses... both unique and one of them a really amazing experience... I agree it could have more.
- The Last of Us has a fast pacing gameplay... different of The Order that you are limited to walk in big environments (you can't run)... the gun parts was more, variates and better than The Order had... it was pretty fun in The Last of Us both exploration and gunplay parts.

I can go ahead and say whats makes TLOU a gen and how The Order failed to these same points.

TLoU ending was fine. But it was no where near a closed ending and ended abruptly. Just like the order. TLoU didn't have fast paced gameplay on hard or above. Or else you'd run out of ammo and supplies and die. TLoU was just as linear

TLOU's ending was told in a way that it left some things up to interpretation between Joel and Ellie, the games story was obviously finished though. That's not even comparable to the Order which was clearly set up to get a direct sequel, that game ended with tons of unsolved plot points.

TLoU's ending was amazing.  Purposefully left that way.
It's not the same with The Order.  It wanted and needed more.

TLOU was wide linear while The Order was narrow corridor linear. Also, The Order's climax was anti-climatic because of the overused "You and I are no different" trope.

 So unless I'm totally dumb we have two possibilities.
 1) Bloodborne actually sold more than DSIII PS4, even though the latter is the best launch of the series.
 2) Bloodborne did not sell more than DSIII PS4, but in that case the Xbox One split gotta be really small.
 I need that split, dang nabbit :(

 
Roughly 70% ps4.
 Bloodborne sold slightly more on ps4, but I wouldn't really get hung up on it. Its total revenue that's most important in launch month.

They really aren't. The Last of Us ending was absolutely incredible. The best of any game I've ever played.

Ditto. Shooting the Dr.s was amazing.
