Did it? Where?

@bolded, were we playing the same game? Everybody had the charisma of a damp piece of driftwood.
Pretty sure nowhere.Did it? Where?
Deserved.
Underrated game though. Not great, but solid enough to have such potential for a sequel.
Hope it was worth it..Congrats on its first and last award
They designed a beautiful movie you walk through.
What about the few shooting gallaries they bothered to design gives you the feeling of potential?
The game carries itself entirely on presentation.
Sure, except the majority is on my side so I'm curious on how anyone can find the characters charming or interesting.Perception and opinions are quite curious things, aren't they?
While I agree with that sentiment generally, the only thing the Order innovated in was how to create pretty enviornments.Well deserved. It had the best visuals I ever seen in a published videogame.
Yes, it's a game. And opinions like yours are the reason of why we see little innovation in this industry.
Congratulations!Congratulations!
Congratulations!
The funniest part about the game is that it's all in service of presenting such a bad story. It would be one thing if it was simply average or forgettable. But The Order's story is legitimately one of the worst of 2015. It's so incredibly stupid and unfinished.
In my heart. But the Escapist was the first that game to mind, and that's when you only count "Worst" and not "Most Disappointing" or "Most Mediocre"Did it? Where?

Not like it would change much.No wonder it won then!
Also no Rise of Tomb Raider in there? No Until Dawn??
Isn't Siggraph something like awards too ?
Meh.
I agree. I've said it before but I really enjoyed my time with the order.
A visual award and the same butt hurt people as always getting their shot in about the garbage gameplay.
How does it go... Gaf gonna Gaf.
NiceCongrats on its first and last award
can't believe he expected anything beyond a pointed joke being quoted ad-infinitum, this is gaf after all yoooooowhat do you wish/expect? a one hundred page thread full of good, deserved, awesome!, gimme sequel?
Nope, the VR thing created by Weta on UE4.Wait... the Hobbit is a lego game? How the hell did it get in there. "Looks at rest of list" oh nevermind.
This thread... i am choking.
But seriouslly... no ROTTR, no Until Dawn, TW3... what kind of competition is this? What a mess.
Wasnt that PC Ryse though?Yeah, never heard about this award before. SIGGRAPH is what you can be proud of. Doesn't mean the game has no chance here, though. IIRC Ryse also won at SIGGRAPH before.
Nah. TR looks wonderful but The Order, Battlefront, and Batman Arkham Knight all exceed it. I could see TR coming in at number 4, though.Tomb Raider got robbed!
Wasnt that PC Ryse though?
Congrats on its first and last award
There's a lot of squareminded people that can't see that a game isn't made for them.
Sure, except the majority is on my side so I'm curious on how anyone can find the characters charming or interesting.
Why are you guys discussing plot and gameplay in a The Order 1886 thread?
Well done.fixed
fixed
Why are you guys discussing plot and gameplay in a graphics award thread?
Pretty sure they didn't win the gameplay price.Well, people play games and not graphics. It's not unusual to talk about the gameplay, especially when a game focuses more on graphics than on gameplay.
Congrats on its first and last award
Hard to argue with that one.
I was hugely impressed with the engine and tech for the game.
Less so with the game but no need to go there I see salty folks already have.
When a game gets a bad rap for gameplay, people will find ways to criticize every element of the game as possible. Like:First off, I doubt that any representative surveys on the matter have been conducted so you being in the majority is also a matter of perception (based on a relatively small, non-representative sample, I would imagine), not fact (if you're talking about general critical reception, of course, that may be a different story, but that's not what you're talking about). Secondly, a majority of people agreeing on something does not necessarily make it right or more valid. There are countless examples in history of things that were generally regarded as fact by most people at the time which later turned out to be utterly wrong. Of course, in this case there is no such thing as right or wrong because, while there are certain rules and guidelines which can be used to craft a story which could generally be said to be a good story with regards to most people's learned expectations and notions of what constitutes a good story, there is no way of empirically measuing or determining the quality of a story (or of fictional characters) and you cannot objectively call a story good or bad, no matter how many people may agree on either. And that is my point entirely. Your opinion is no more valid or "right" than that of anyone who did like the story and did like the characters and it doesn't matter whether the majority is "on your side" or not, that doesn't make it more or less valid.
