If it helps, there's dialogue which is clearly referring to the plot but which is vague and meaningless because you've not played the prior missions. I've watched it twice and I'm none the wiser

OK I have discovered some visual discrepancy between the cutscene and the gameplay regarding the shadows in this vid. At the main hall where the chandeliers are lighting up the floor, you can see in cutscene the characters are casting shadows, but not in the gameplay. Could this be a bug or a shortcoming of the forward plus rendering? Not that I'm concerned or anything but I do hope they're still keeping the gameplay and cutscene graphics seamless 1:1 by release.
The lighting looks different when it switches between the close-up with the glass casing vs the sniper view, but you can still shadows from characters by the door when the player zooms up over there.
edit: The guy who walks over and then the ladies in red/white cast shadows.
edit2: Cinematic lighting/shadowing just looks different

Some games use a lower LOD in sniper views despite that the scope is supposed to zoom in and hence higher LOD would have kicked in under normal conditions. I think this is a similar case. But I think it is still typical LOD. Even with zoom in, the distance is still far. During normal gameplay (not sniper) such transitions appear non-existent (even though they may exist)
Maybe. Though the later section of gameplay has enemies showing up that don't look nearly as nice when up-close vs the preceding cinematic.
Of course, the floor lighting looks considerably better later on than it did when it zoomed in. Seems like a combination of both?
edit:
mm... nevermind. Hard to compare since gameplay camera angles aren't all equal, and we never get as zoomed in as the cinematic camera.
edit: in that video
Other vids seem fine given the circumstances.

The only visual problem that I saw was slight shadow aliasing that sometimes appeared on Galahad's face. But even that happened maybe few times, not always, and it is a nitpick in the otherwise stunning game.

there is a low resolution shadow on this scene too
yeah but the game it's incredible! The most beautiful game that i ever see in all my life!
If I remember it right they didn't say removing but said that they could go 1080P in 16:9 ratio by doing 2*MSAA instead of 4*MSAA.
On another note, is this the first game that genuinely looks like a CG render?
Perfect round edges everywhere, clothes that don't look like it's made out of polygons but actual cloth...etc

I find all the geometry in the scene has that 3d look instead of a gamey cut and paste effect. Clothes actually feel soft and matted instead of that plastic, shiny look that most games tend to have. The AO, lighting and shading must contribute so much to achieve this depth. Also really love their version of SSS, looks so natural under the light.
I rechecked the b-roll video and man is it hard to find hard edges on the models? Everything looks natural and blends naturally.
The normal maps in many games reveal the actual flatter surface of the models when viewed from certain angles. But here? It is almost impossible to notice. Depth is very convincing. How many polygons are these models made of?

I hope these arent bad signs http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-12-12-video-why-you-might-not-want-to-pre-order-the-order
Ouch. That's slightly worrying. But to be honest I wouldn't preorder The Order anyway, way too many unknown factors about it. And I fell for the pretty graphics trick many times before.

Eurogamer baitclicking again, but ok, that guy's oppinion is what it is. He can keep it.
So many other journalists and people who reported playing the game on the showfloor were very positive, describing good gameplay and immersion into the world of alternative Victorian England.

True, but honestly, if Sony even dare to release a broken game requiring patch after patch, I will literally lose the will to live.
