The Order: 1886 may not be the most engaging, enduring experience. In fact, you’ve probably forgotten the game even exists. Its memory may be fleeting, but it’s certainly one of the best looking game’s we’ve seen. And now it looks even better – if you’re part of the Instagram generation. The game’s been updated with a nifty photo mode that allows you to take pictures that don’t require flash powder and photographic plates. It also allows you to play through the game with a series of filters. Thrilling.
“Since The Order: 1886 is completely rendered in real-time with no pre-rendered frames, you’re able to play in a customised look from beginning to end,” game director Dana Jan said on PS Blog. “If at any time you want to change Color Grading styles during gameplay, simply enter Photo Mode and make your adjustment. You can also reset the option if you wish to play the game as it was originally intended.”
Here’s a new trailer about the photomode, which may take you longer to watch than it’ll take to play through the game. I jest, of course. The Order: 1886 was an okay game, beautifully presented and polished to a sheen. Unfortunately, it was also a tad dull, laden with barely-interactive quick time events and made a bit of a mockery of player agency. Still, I’d love to see sequel that rights the wrongs – and I have to find out what happens in the story. Granted, that’s largely because there was no real resolution to the story presented in the game, but I digress.

About your opinions regarding Playstation articles? Yeah I agree. 😛
On a serious note, I think this could have been a system seller but instead we got a pretty tech demo. Hopefully the sequel will be a massive improvement. They know what they did wrong.

Hi Guys, this is off topic. But did you see Kalahari.com is closing down end of April. I contacted them and they don’t have any answers if my Witcher 3 collectors edition would be delivered. Any of you guys have the same problem?

Takealot.com is taking over. So they will sort you out.
We will burn down the place if you don’t get your Witcher 3 collector edition.

That depends on your level of vanity, could be one selfie or OVER 200 witcher hours of mad selfies in the order

No one bought our fancy tech demo? What market can we explore?
Add the ability to take selfies and you have an entire new market and record breaking sales.
