It might have been billed as the first really major release of 2015, but it's fair to say that The Order 1886 has inspired a fairly mixed response from critics and players alike. While it's being acknowledged as a thing of beauty and a technical feat, there's a pretty serious caveat in that it's ludicrously short and has a very broad definition of what constitutes actual player involvement.
