{FalconMarkSix} @FalconMarkSix@tech.lgbtThe other day I started playing the game "The Order: 1886". I just wanted to try something new (to me lmao).
It's an interesting game. This game is so linear that I feel like I'm playing a walking sim, but with the added fact that I'm holding a gun and you shoot baddies.
I wonder how long I'll keep playing this game. It's Chapter 2 and I'm not too sure what's going on. 
@FalconMarkSix From the discussions I recall when it came out, people's main disappointment with the game was how short it was... tbh, if those criticisms are accurate, I suspect you'll probably manage to play until the end of the game pretty easily... 
{FalconMarkSix} @FalconMarkSix@WolvericCatkin Oh haha I take soooooooooooooo loooooooooong to complete a game because I am a completionist.
Here's the thing, I know this is not that kind of game where there is a hidden object in some nook and cranny that you need later. But my brain is like, "What if there is an object?? Hmm??" 
So I think what will happen in my case, is that I'll complete the game and say, "Wow what do you guys mean that it's short?? This is such an appropriate length for a game!!" 
@FalconMarkSix According to HLTB, a completionist playthrough is roughly 10.5 hours... 
{FalconMarkSix} @FalconMarkSix@WolvericCatkin OK so it'll be 15 hours for me 
@FalconMarkSix to be honest I enjoy linear shorter games like. Huge, long open worlds kinda overwhelm me. I prefer denser experiences.
I have not played the game yet. I hope it receives a PC release.
{FalconMarkSix} @FalconMarkSix@nightowl I like a balance. Like you have to go here or do this, but you get to choose how it's done or how you get there. And then there are like 2 or 3 side quests until you get to the next area.
In this game it's like you must go in certain rooms in a certain order (no pun intended) in order to get to the goal. It's a lot of hand-holding. Not necessarily a bad thing, it just takes getting used to.
