    I truly don’t understand the hate. Charming story with relatable characters, cool combat, and easily the best graphics of any saints row game to date. People love to complain but don’t let that stop you from enjoying a masterpiece.

    Thoughts-
    All things considered, Saints Row is a worthy reboot for the franchise. It’s not something that reinvents the wheel; it’s a pretty formulaic open world that comes with most of the genre’s trappings. But in the face of its fast and frenzied gameplay loop and varied mission designs, these gripes get reduced to minor inconveniences as you embark on a journey to become the biggest gang in Santo Ileso.

I play this co-op and we've had a lot of laughs from the characters in the story and the game itself is very fun. What I like most about it. Is that it has dinar vibes to Saints Row II and The Third before it got really silly. I still played IV and Gat Out of He'll but they weren't that good overall, so I for one am glad to see they've reverted back to driving being more necessary than just jumping really high and essentially flying.

    I'd give this an 8.5/10 but marking as 10 because people giving it between 0-3 on purpose is a disgrace. Even games I strongly dislike I would always rate fairly.

    Despite lot of bad reviews i found myself enjoying and being addicted to this game, fun, simple and effective.

    I returned to Saints Row after not finishing The Third and IV, which are probably the worst ones for me because they were TOO MUCH random sh*t especially IV. This game instead takes me back to the simpler and best (for me of course) Saints Row style, Saints Row 2.

    Now bugs, yes there are clearly bugs. BUT what I played was really not as tragic as some people put it, I don’t know if it was a bad early copy or not, but i didn’t encounter any real game breaking bugs, the most annoying bug i encountered was that the colors i set for some weapons would go back to default and blurry graphics.

    I hope Volition doesn’t give up, fixes the major bugs and brings great expansions. Under all the hate there is a good and fun game.

    And like I always say/do, never judge a game too hardly by its scores/ratings, it’s all mostly subjective.

    Cars: great customization, different options, and a lot of cars
    Guns: different types has perks and has great performances to it
    The characters: funny, cool, I enjoy playing with them
    The map: big, a lot of activities to do

    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.

The game mechanics at first can be jarring and hard to get used to but once you have a flow going with the game you release there's tons of fun to be had with the game. The hand to hand combat feels half baked and at first the shooting for unauthentic and uninspired but once have and an Idea what weapons are best in what situations you start to have blast. The driving may feel floaty to some but after recently playing saints row 3 the driving feel just about the same as Saints Row The Third. This game has the vibes of Saints Row 2 and the gameplay of Saints Row 3. You can tell they took the time to give the world some love. I heard a lot of people say there no land marks in this game. Those people lied. The moment you start exploring the bridges and highways in this game will be more memorable that Saints Row 3, the building will be just as, if not more, memorable as Saints Row 2 building. The variety in the map is a much needed change to the Saints Row series. As far combat goes it feels a lot like Saints Row 3 but the addition of dodge rolling oddly feels right at home in a Saints Row game. The weapons range from mostly realistic to advanced tech. There's nothing to crazy in the weapon options. Pretty much just good old fashioned gun play with a hint of advanced weaponry. The writing admittedly needs work. It has its cringe moments but also some serious moments I wasn't expecting out of this game. A lot of time something happens in the story I'm asking myself how did we get here, why did we just do this, this is such a far leap from where we needed to take this. The same goes for dialogue. I'm asking myself who wrote these cringe lines, why is she talking to me like this, who would ever jump to this conclusion. It doesn't help that the voice acting isn't the best. When it comes to the missions I don't think they are as repetitive as people are saying. I did one string of side missions of my first 2 hours of playing the game and I never got tired of it. In fact I wish there was more of those mission. I will say story mission rely to much on cut scenes and some side missions have bad pacing either being to slow or going by to quick. The grind in this game is one of the best I've scene all year. Different vehicles and guns have perks to be unlocked through either killing certain types of enemies or doing an action a certain amount of times. The leveling up system is pretty lackluster with only 20 levels for you to grind through but the levels make good use of themselves. Offering you perks to equip, and more health. My biggest issue with the game right now is the glitches. I've been co-op with my brother and girlfriend and these glitches are horrible. I was ran over by my girlfriend and brother multiple times because the co-op player icon disappeared in the course of playing the game. It comes back if you die but admittedly if you're not facing down a horde of enemies it's hard to die. My brother has got himself stuck in cars, he's been unable to shoot, and he's been stuck the radio wheel. My girlfriend and I have had missions just completely glitch out on us. This game definitely needed a day one patch to say the least. Altogether I will say this game was $60 well spent. Sightseeing, wing suiting around with friends, being a hired gun on get away missions, racing from the desert to the city, gang wars, the most in-depth customization I've ever scene, the story (when it actually works), the variety in enemies, owning a taco truck, running into gas tanks and instead of exploding your car just goes flying like it did in Saints Row 2 and the hover board. I'm more than satisfied. I can not wrap my head around why this game is getting so much hate. Maybe this wasn't the Saints Row the world was like for but this sets the Saint Row franchise up to have another great peak. I'd say this is the second or third best game in the franchise. I hope this game gets great DLC, and an even better sequel. I want more of this style of Saints Row. Expand

    To preface, I've beaten this game. I've 100%ed the map. I've experienced every mission and activity there is to do in this game, so keep that in mind.

    This game is worth a 7/10, but I'm giving it a 10 to counterbalance all the 0-1 reviews this game doesn't deserve.

    This game isn't bad. It's a competently designed but clumsily put-together Gen-Z Power Fantasy. The main thing this reboot does for the franchise is that it takes the story beats from the first 2 games and re-contextualizes them in a Millenial lens. When people complain that this game "wokified" the series, that's what they're talking about. When they're talking about "censorship," 4 things happened. The **** bats are gone, RimJobs and **** were renamed to JimRob's and FB's, and there are no prostitutes. If funny sex and hookers were what Saints Row was to you, then this game isn't for you.

    But that starts to be one of this game's problems, in a marketing sense. The Volition devs spent so much time away from the scene, just to more or less alienate their Hard-R Gamer audience by leaning left for its target audience. This is a necessary calculated risk for any modern AA studio, but in keeping everything else exactly the same they haven't really brought much to compensate for this loss. And that's why this game gets such a bad rep: the only unique thing they have to bring is the most controversial one.

    If you want to hear an actual review about this game, go watch Yahtzee's take on Zero Punctuation; he talks about how this game technically does so many things right but fails to deliver an engaging experience because it's so outdated and derivative to itself. If you're done with that, here are more things to say:

    The game is competently designed. When I say that, I mean the people who laid this game out on the drawing board knew how to design video games. The cutscene cinematography is good. The game systems are laid out well. The graphics are outdated, but the artstyle is fine, and next-gen graphics are severely overrated. The main characters are basically likeable. The writing works. The humor is fine. (I've played Borderlands 3, I know what bad humor and writing in a game looks like, and this isn't it. One key difference being that this game doesn't force you to sit there and listen to people talk before the game lets you play. All the cutscenes are skippable and the dialogue happens during active gameplay, so none of it is intrusive.)

    The issue comes with how all these designs are put together. The programming is embarrassing; I've run into so many obnoxious bugs in my playthrough every day. Clothes and weapons will randomly equip and unequip themselves. Sometimes cars will get stuck on nothing and explode. Sometimes no cars will load in at all. Combat just doesn't work as well as it should at all times. The in-game animations are boring and simplistic. Many side objectives are blatant padding. All of it is sure signs of a game that needed more time and better management, which is likely a luxury the studio just didn't have.

    In conclusion, this game isn't great. But it's playable, and it kills time well. I'd much rather have dealt with this game's **** than any live-service, online-only, subscription-model, you-don't-own-anything ass **** that every other company is pushing into the industry. This game has a kind of simple purity that comes from being from an older and, in my opinion, better time.

    tl;dr I give it a C, a C+ if the bugs are fixed. It'll kill 10 hours and won't make you puke. Buy it for 30 bucks.

Она стала серьёзнее чем прошлый saint row, в прошлых частях я не сочувствовал персонажам, даже если они умирали то это не вызывало у меня грусти. В этой же игре поднимаются важные жизненные темы. Люди не понимают что такое перезапуск, игра стала лучше по графике - и мне понравилось, появилось больше деталей и физики - не понравилось, сюжет стал лучше - не понравилось.

    I am really baffled on the universal hate on this game. It is a good open world game with a ton of fun stuff to do. If you like GTA style open world games, you will love it. I did not find it repetitive at all. The only downside is that the game crashes a lot, but hopefully this will be fixed in a patch. Just play the game yourself before you judge it so harshly.

The humor in the game is the same as in the previous games. There are bugs in the game, but what game doesn't have them. My point is that Volition did an amazing job. Don't hate the game, just play it for 5 hours of your time and you will realize it is a masterpiece.

    A lot more fun than I expected. While the map isn't the biggest in the franchise, there is plenty to do and explore. I was concerned that this would lose the "charm" of the earlier entries but that Saints Row DNA is still there.

    In my mind, does NOT deserve the hate its getting. The game is awesome, fun and indeed 100% a Saints Row game. Granted, it may not be the Saints Row we were used too (SR 1,2,3,4, GOH) but its deffinently a fresh title in the series. I have encounter little to no bugs/glitches, and for me, the game feels EXACTLY how a Saints Row game in 2022 should feel.

    Very fun. No deep story, or revolutionary gameplay, just pure chaotic fun.

    This game is essentially Saints Row 3, with a little more polish and visual upgrade.

    I've seen many reports of game breaking bugs, but I've personally not encountered any, but your mileage may vary.

    Only a bug or two throughout the entire playthrough so either I'm really lucky or others are exaggerating. The characters were likeable, good customization options for you boss and ride, big city and different environments. I feel like the side quests could have offered a bit more variety or story but some were a lot of fun. If you liked SR4 then I think you'll probably like this one too.

I get that, but, hating on a game, which not only damages the developers, and the industry overall is going to kill it for all of us. Objectively, this game is a solid 8. It’s one of those rare games where I was hooked until there was little content left. Yes, I skipped the collectibles, I’m not a masochist. This. Is. Not. GTA. Saints Row never has been, and never will be. Saints Row is the movie you put on when all your mates come over just because it’s fun to sit, watch, and have a good time with. There is humour here. There is also a ton of irony, which, to be fair, I believe a lot of people mistook as ‘woke’ism. The story isn’t half bad (not that anyone should be here for the story!), and the gameplay loop is a ton of fun. There’s a lot to enjoy here. If you want an epic all out blockbuster affair then you came to the wrong place, and that’s your fault. If you want fun with a ton to do. This is your game. To the devs. Great job.

The vehicle selection is the best in the series. The developers added a big lake in the middle of the city, just to make the city even grander. This game is incredibly funny, I could barely even control my laughter while playing! The controls are also biblical

    The co-op multiplayer is amazing and well made, me and my friends had so much fun playing it . The cowboy statue with the Pringles head has a awesome face on the cover of this game. I am going to keep this game in pristine condition. I would recommend this game to all!

    I bought the game at launch to show my support, and I hoped to be pleased - especially with all the bad press the game has been getting. I just finished the game this evening, and I have been very happy with my play through.

    Yes, the gameplay may seem dated, and it’s a very formulaic Saints Row game. There is no real surprises in terms of gameplay. If you’ve played a Saints Row game, you know what to expect. Missions might be repetitive, but no more so than any other game in the series.

    There’s definitely a wide variety of activities, and plenty of secrets to discover throughout the world. I had fun taking over districts, and discovering hidden things around the map.

    I enjoyed the banter between the main cast, and thought that the story worked well enough for a Saints Row titles. Yes, these are the characters that we got to know in love in the previous titles, but I definitely don’t have any issue with this group. The jokes didn’t all land, but I was definitely amused by things that happened throughout the story. I did have a few bugs pop up here and there, but nothing major. Mainly just vehicles bouncing into the air after hitting small objects, and a weird issue with the camera inside helicopters. The second issue was easily fixed with a reload.

    Overall, I had a blast driving around the city, blowing things up, and being social with my crew. The game may not be for everyone, but make your own judgment - don’t listen to everything you hear.

    This has been an excellent game. Its a decent size map to explore with tons of collectibles discoveries and all sorts of different little things you can do you simply have to comb the desert.

    This game is exactly what I needed right now. The characters are awesome and lovable. The story kept me wanting to see more. The fun factor is out of this world. I truly don't understand all the hate.

    С чего все решили что Saints Row должна быть похожа или быть лучше чем GTA или Watch Dogs? Все эти критиканы обижаются просто на то, что появились новые персонажи. И о ужас, у персонажей рука сквозь край авто просвечивает, поэтому я буду говорить что уровень багов сравним с Cyberpunk'ом. В чём повесточка? в том что второстепенные герои азиат, чёрный и женщина, когда можно сделать гг любогоС чего все решили что Saints Row должна быть похожа или быть лучше чем GTA или Watch Dogs?

Самое забавное, что больше всего про повесточку говорят те, кто любит сменить пол и играть за женщину, потому что это "прэкольно". Expand

    As advertised. Lots of fun. 8/10 but just counterbalancing whiners.

    Exactly as advertised, lots of fun. Not reinventing the wheel, nor did it promise to. Just a fun arcade open world playground.

    Everyone forgets how saints row was received every time one came out, it was never really liked among reviewers. This game has always lived in GTA's shadow, and people review it basically trying to compare this to the likes of GTA quality. Its not like GTA its supposed to be quirky, dumb and ridiculous that is part of its charm and identity.

I've always loved SR except parts of 4 and Gat out of hell, I feel this is a new start for the franchise it feels a lot like 3's gameplay which i really loved. If you like SR games of past you will like this simple as that. Expand

    You guys are crazy giving this game a zero rating . Your rating Zero is not comparable to the quality of the game .

    What is wrong with all of you, people? The game is amazing and it is an ultimate fun! It is so like the first part in the series where you had almost nothing to do on the map but gameplay was so addictive. And that's why it's the great reboot. It is not like SR The third or SR4 because they were OVERLOADED with absurd. IDK why all deciided to bury it with negative. i have no bugs or else.What is wrong with all of you, people?

And the game is not boring. GTA 4,5 ARE boring. Watch dogs 2 like? Yes, only because of it's a bit hipsteresque or contemporary.
    Dear developers, I am so sorry for all these negative reviews. Please, don't give up on the series. We need more SR!

    yeah it has bugs but look up what causes a game to bug aka it's not the developers fault therefore a game can not be judged on bugs and all bugs in this game are very easy to remove aka trying different routes going into the style app simply switching the game on and off etc there realistically nothing to give this game bad marks the game is fun and that's how games should be

    After playing the game for a while and finished the story and still playing it it's still has few issues but this update made the game much better and people don't understand and you have to look thr older saints raw games like 1,2,3 and 3 remastered and this one was the best by far despite the issues but PEOPLE They HAVE A HIGH STANDARD FOR ANY GAMES AND you got to stop thinking this way

    Saints Row had chance to be something much more, if only the team behind the game tried to take a more bold and careful approach.

    he character creator still shines, but frustrating mission design and a disappointing plot make this reboot difficult to recommend. Far more sinner than saint. [Issue#19, p.92]

    A really, really fun experience that is getting sh*t on for no reason other than groupthink, herd mentality and people on the bandwagon.
