Saints Row

You can tell that the game came out unfinished. Everything is flooded with bugs. Story is okay but the bugs ruin it. I actually love the Saints Row series but this has ruined the whole good reputation. You can also see that Volition is closed. I also think that it only becomes fun after a certain part. But the $7 is worth it. Now that I've finished playing, I don't feel like continuing to play the game. Hope there's a new one coming soon Saints Row out which has fewer bugs and is also fun. One thing that has to be said though is that the character creation is very good. You can edit a lot. Like I said, they don't need to make a music app and use their time and money in better things.

Granted, I'm not the biggest fan of Saints Row. I loved the first two games, but Saints Row 3 and onwards completely lost me. The identity of this series always felt a bit unclear, with Saints Row 2 ultimately being the peak of what Saints Row could've been. It was wacky and a bit slapstick, but it still felt grounded to a certain extent. And while the Game Awards trailer had me looking forward to this reboot, actually playing the game was a different story.

This plays more like Saints Row 3 and Just Cause 4, but with stiff gameplay, a boring campaign, and an unbearable story. I will admit that I like the art direction and the environmental design. The open world - while nothing special - is fairly nice to roam around in, even if it feels lifeless at times. But once you start playing through the actual content, it all just falls apart.

The combat feels outdated and stiff. The mission design lacks excitement. Side missions are repetitive and boring as hell. The story is uninteresting and the script is horrendous.

If this is the new age of Saints Row, then this franchise is truly not for me.

I never liked the saints row character or story. I dont do so this time. And i dont care. The cringe fun dialogue, arcade gameplay, blowing stuff up... It works as a letting steam off game. Graphics are okayish, nothing state of the art, not too bad eighter. World is not extremly big but enough room for making insane stuff happening. The synchro is nice, the voice i chose sounds great.

I reall enjoy playing it. I dont see too much wokeness. You cant choose a gender, still was able to create a male and female, so what. I did not encounter major bugs till now. Its proper funny crazyness. Probably wont think about it anymore in a year but for now, its great.

It's an origin story, that's great.

It's an open world, that's great.

It's repetitive, bland, humorless, quirk-less, powerless and a chore to work through the same tired side missions which end up being stripped down versions of previous versions of the same style activities.

I was so excited for a new Saints Row, by looking at the box art and watching the trailers it's a fast paced quirky game with the charm and humor of Saints Row 2, 3 and GooH, it's not that.

Combat is slow but twitchy getting stun locked or completely overrunning enemies after upgrading any weapons, the activities are just scavenger hunts with look through the area and click on the buttons or try to figure out what's a target and what's scenery.

Bad, in all things gameplay, story and character development.

When it comes to "Saints from the third street" you are not expecting a GTA clone at all. You are waiting for a new heart-breaking story, a story without a frame. Such were the previous parts. They not only ridiculed all the stereotypes of people, but based on new trends, films, other games, the charisma of heroes and antagonists, the fearlessness of the script - they created an incredible cocktail. A cocktail where each of the flavors was brought to maximum sharp tones, but the harmony created an incredible taste. There is no new part of it. She is boring, uninteresting. This is when anticipation turned into disappointment. You can play (although there are a lot of bugs), but this is not a continuation of the series ((( 3/10.
