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.
