    Игра на крепкую семерочку. В целом сойдет поиграть. Хейтеров не очень понимаю. Поиграйте сначала, а потом уже оценки ставьте. Разработчики тоже хороши. Могли бы и навстречу игрокам пойти, а не вот это вот.

    unjustified review bomb due to politicalization of video games

    would have been better as a $30 game with $15 season pass... been playing this franchise since the first saints row game on the original xbox and this game is not all that bad. the map is not all that bad. i actually own the game and been playing it and so far no real so far only crashed one time. they fixed the start up
    unjustified review bomb due to politicalization of video games

    would have been better as a $30 game with $15 season pass...

    been playing this franchise since the first saints row game on the original xbox and this game is not all that bad. the map is not all that bad. i actually own the game and been playing it and so far no real so far only crashed one time. they fixed the start up bug. other than that really no bugs to speak of. the only thing i would like is more npc players and they they would interact with player like in other saint row games. nothing that cant be fixed in the coming months as they polish the game.

    a lot of the negative reviews are from people who do not even own the game. they start their reviews that they tried to get the game for free, but they could not get a free key and then they spent the rest of the review complaining about a game that they do not have and that they have not played and all you see in the videos are pre release game clips

    the other group i see are people who also have not bought the game and are upset because of their **** politics. honestly its a **** game. get over it.

    another bunch of people i see complaining also have not bought the game and are complaining about very early releases that they may have heard of and are not complaining about any bugs that they may know of in the actual release.

    another group are people who are not happy that its does not have their favorite characters. i dont know what to say dont buy the game.

    other than that what can i say the game is not the best gta clone, but not the worse. i needs some polishing. i just think it need more npcs...finally, i've not run across any bugs other than the game launcher is buggy and it takes a number of attempts to get the game running, real pain.

    I ran into a couple of bugs here and there, but honestly less than any Elder Scrolls game and some of the previous games in the series. The writing isn't as funny as it used to be, but the potty humor is still there. The boss is still badass without being an utter psychopath like in the later games in the series. Driving is still as floaty as ever.

Driving is still as floaty as ever. Customization is amazing and a lot of games would benefit from looking at this as it sets a new bar.

    I have to rate this a 10 even though I think it's a 7/8 simply because of the review bombers. If you are a fan of the series then it's worth playing. More fun than the Gat outta hell game that was really terrible. This feels like it fits in between SR2 and 3 as far as over-the-top gameplay and the craziness of the characters. No character will ever be as iconic as Jonny Gat and this game doesn't need one. It stands on its own legs and doesn't try to just be a "clone of the last game but slightly more over-the-top." I honestly think Volition did themselves a disservice with 3 and 4 (they were great games and fun as hell) because they left themselves with nowhere to go that would ever please their fanbase 100%. I applaud them for taking it back more to the roots and look forward to seeing what they do from here.

    - I (the one who completed Saints Row 2, 3, 4, hell) like this game: it's nice to play, fun, I want to play it, this doesn't happen often with me
    - A lot of work has been put into the game (cut-scene fire, cool room/city design, various quests, design)
    - Improved gameplay (dodges, special moves, hits for HP) - This is a reboot of the series, made to last Give the game a chance, try

    Give the game a chance, try it yourself, than blindly listen to someone else's opinion!!

    If you liked the game, tell your friends about it, let the game fail at the start, but in the end it will beat off

    It will be a pity to lose the Saints Row series, given that the restart is made with a lot of work and plays great

    I don't know why there is so much hate about this game. I really think it's a perfect open-world-game and a great new game in the Saints Row series. Love every aspect of it, except of bugs, which I hope will be fixed soon.

    Before that, the remastered game did not reach the level of Mafia 1, but it did not try.
    And after such games, you look at a game like Mafia 3 with different eyes.

    But it is better to compare it with Watch Dogs, Watch Dogs 2, especially with Watch Dogs Legion, where more and more game mechanics, features and details were cut out with each part.
    Here even cars are not bricks on wheels and not pinned in the middle on a pin.

    Or you can compare it to Far Cry 2 and Far Cry 3, although they have nothing to do with it. But do you understand what I mean?

    And we don't have a big list of such games:
    Mafia
    Mafia (restart).
    Watch Dogs
    Sleeping dogs
    GTA

    Maybe a couple more of these games.

    Did you expect more from her?
    The GTA level can only be reached by GTA and then, the big question is whether she will be able to do it with the 6th part. (and will she come out at all?)

    Definitely worth taking, that's just confused by the price, this game is clearly not at the level of $ 60, but thank you for not $ 70

    Only one thing I ask the developers, it's enough to shove such a style everywhere, it's not Fortnite enough, do normal graphics, from which it does not dazzle in the eyes.

    Okay...Giving it a 10 to counteract the reviews that haven't played it because if you call it woke trash you probably didn't even buy it. If you complain about the graphics you are watching YouTube videos off your phone.

    It's fun. Not perfect. Plays a lot like 3 but with some newer mechanics. Love the gliding. Gunplay feels so much better than 1-4. The characters are all different and

    It's fun. Not perfect. Plays a lot like 3 but with some newer mechanics. Love the gliding. Gunplay feels so much better than 1-4. The characters are all different and play into their tropes well. Mechanic, Nerd, Crazy One, and then your character who can literally be whatever you make them. Vehicle customization is better than ever. Guns are alright but are also fully customizable which makes up for the variety. The city/map is absolutely gorgeous, the attention to detail and cultural influences are spot on. In no way does the city feel lifeless. A lot of returning radio stations, great soundtrack when causing chaos.

    All in all, it's a good game and a great saints row. Don't get up with what is considered woke or generational and just enjoy the mayhem and comedy.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm from Russia. Unfortunately, I couldn't buy the game because of the sanctions, I had to download it. Yes, the characters in the plot, with the exception of the main character, are simply TERRIBLE. But the game is very interesting, in terms of the mechanics of shooting battles and a lot of variety that opens up over time. Pathetic people play it for 1 hour, under the influence of a herd feeling they put 0 out of 10. I really liked the game, compared it automatically with Far Cry 5. Saints Row is better at times, respect for a fun game, this is a 100% step forward in terms of gameplay. Expand

    Мне понравился перезапуск, жалко что игры нет в Steam. Игра довольно развлекательная и не надоедливая, играю днями) Я ни в коем случае не сравниваю эту часть с предыдущими и отношусь к игре как к чему-то новому. Искренне надеюсь что игра окупиться разработчикам и они будут радовать своими играми.Мне понравился перезапуск, жалко что игры нет в Steam.

    A totally unnecessary reboot. Not to say the game isn't fun. It is. Again, it's pure escapism that exists just so you can fool around with a bunch of weapons and vehicles and not have to think about it. The problem is that previous installments have done the same thing - and infinitely better. [Issue#322]

    There’s a weight of history behind Saints Row, and no matter whether you’re comparing it to the more serious early games or the sillier later ones, it’s pretty clear that the Saints Row reboot doesn’t live up to any of them.

    A newcomer would be shocked by crude animations, wonky physics and bad gunplay. Fans of the franchise are kinda used to that, but they’ll be disappointed for another reason: while Saints Row 2022 does have a few fun moments, most of them are blatantly ripped from previous games of the series.
