Saints Row

This game is terrible. It has the worst characters. I didn't like them. The game has many problems. I was bored throughout the experience. This may be the end of the franchise. I don't want to see these Saints again. The old saints from the other games would destroy these weak new saints. The people who made this game didn't care. They made something awful. There were moments during my playthrough when I was thinking "what is this garbage?" We want things to be entertaining and fun. We don't want this trash. It's time to wake up and learn. It's frustrating that there are games full of bugs these days. Finish the games when making them. We don't want something half finished.

Don't shoot the messenger but this is another bad review, I am a long time fan of the series and have played each title from Saints Row 2006 to the current Saints Row 2022. To other fans reading this. Do not bother with this title instead poor one out tonight because another beloved IP is dead. This game is sanitized charmless souless boring and buggy piece of malarkey. Every previous title is better. The prologue starts off after you customize the new boss. Quickly after the action takes off you start to see it, and feel it. Shooting is odd and just as quirky as your life is stange' + watch dog' style roommates. I swear each character was born strait out of twiter and reddit. The repetitive bullet sponge enemies have the worst AI in the series. The city is boring. At least the characters are relatable, well not so fast I would never talk like that and I myself am a genZer. No gangster ever would talk like that. Oh right this isn't a gangster game really. If the developers were really so fed up with the blatant honesty and crude humor and every other core Saints Row aspect and didn't want to be limited by the past of the previous franchise they should have opened a new IP. Not drop this piece of garbage and paint a beloved name on it. Even if they managed that amount of respect they clearly fail at every thing else. I wish I never bought this garbage and this lie. I bought 1 and two just days later. If you want to relive the glory days don't bother with 2022. There just isn't an aspect with praising in the game besides vehicle customization. The venture system was an empty and washed out way to revive more beloved activities that will just leave any one unimpressed. This game is begging you to drink the koolade and except mediocrity. This is a AAA game that a developer owned by 3 publishing company and ran by marketing teams. F this game. Its not worth 60 dollars and definetly not 70 or 100 dollars. Don't buy it borrow it maybe play it on game pass if you want to see what I mean.

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.
