Title: The Order:1886
Post by: Skrapwelder on 12 June 2013, 04:23:03 PM
New PS4 game on the horizon. I'm not a fan of the console but the trailer has already got thinking about a company for IHMN

That does look pretty good, and I can see what you mean by getting you thinking... ;)

Perhaps a monster hunting variant on the Explorers Club list?

I was thinking more along the lines of Baden-Powell and a very active order of Chivalry. The Moral opposite of Curr's Company perhaps.

I'd been toying with the idea of a secret knightly order, such as the remnants of the Knights Templar. Maybe I can work some of these ideas in as well...

Is it zombies? You never saw them other than shapes in the fog and I got a distinct lupine impression from one of them.

Ready at Dawn has studiously avoided saying what the Order is fighting, save that it is "a powerful and ancient foe" in a "centuries-long war" and that welsh folklore was a big influence.

I believe the quote they are attributing to Malory in the opener is a reference to Sir Galahad, Lancelot's son. In the game, Galahad is the character the player controls. So its easy to see The Order is an extension of the Knights of the Round Table. The sigil is very reminiscent of the Worm Ouroboros.

Loving the clip,the creatures look very werewolf like to me.

OK I have finally got around to watching the trailer...  :o

Arc Rifles, Flamethrowers, Rocket Guns, Whitechapel... did these guys have an advance copy of IHMN? Methinks I need to have a 'word' with my publishers  lol

It may be werewolves or zombies. End result is the same; first person shooter blasting things
*yawn*

Just Doom with Steampunk clothing.


I am getting very cynical in my old age  ;)

I must say that I'm very excited for this game, even if the new console generation as a whole is looking very unimpressive at the moment. While the first-person shooter genre certainly has gotten rather stale, I'd attributed it far more to simple over-saturation and the absurd lack of creativity in terms of IPs then the gameplay style itself.

In my opinion, The Order: 1886 could be a chance for a company to make an FPS that really stands out from the pack not only in setting, but also mechanics.

Is it definitely an FPS? I got bored of those a long time ago, I was hoping this might be 3rd person and/or squad based. Last one is a bit of a stretch I know but I can hope :)

Playstation or whatever, I do like the whole look of the thing.

The character designs look interesting but I doubt the game play will be.

I haven't got the coordination for FPS games.

I'm much more into the story and the graphics.

Cool concept. Certainly seem more like werewolf/vampire type creatures.
