Sony has just stopped streaming a few minutes of The Order 1886 showing off some shooting action in an alternate Victorian London. The transition between cutscene and gameplay appears to be very smooth, and the game itself does look very nice too. I quite like the fire effects when grenades are used, with the flames spreading quickly and engulfing scenery. The voice acting sounds to be pretty solid too.
The gameplay didn’t show the beasts from the original reveal trailer but instead appeared to focus on the other conflict in the story, that being the class war which has turned violent, with signs such as ‘Death To Tyranny’, and ‘No to Slavery. Yes to Liberty’ draped across the street. We also see glimpses of the other technologies outside weaponry including the instant heal potion that patches up a bullet graze.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see more footage from this section of the game being shown at E3. Hopefully the beasts will turn up too.

Like others have said, graphically it looks great. But it’s just a generic cover shooter.

I didn’t even think much about this game, but seeing this video just made my jaw drop :)

Oh for the death of platform exclusive titles, I’d love a piece of this on my PC.
