10 Years Later: Were We ALL WRONG About The Order 1886?

Ready at Dawn’s The Order 1886 impressed everyone with its jaw-dropping visuals and staggering attention to detail when it was released for the PS4 back in 2015.

Now that a decade has passed since then, we take a look back at The Order 1886 and try to rate it against modern contemporaries while keeping in mind the current trends of the AAA industry.
