    Bad graphics, empty world and to many bugs. The game is way to repetitive. Didn't like the characters and the story is very bad. You don't even wanna give this game to your worst enemy!

    Starting from the character creator that where not only is it there very few options to customise how you want to look but apparently there is no easy way to choose if you are male or female because that obviously offend some blue haired wack job that was never going to play the game anyway.

    All the characters in this are annoying prats that I wanted to die. There is nothing of the style, glamor or larger then life appeal that the other games in the series had. The men are either total wimps or fat lumps and none of the women are attractive.

    If you want a fun game stay away from this and go play Saints Row 3.    … Expand

    This is what happens when you worry about being "Woke" and pushing an agenda more than building a quality game. Where do I even begin? I don't think I've ever played a game with such an empty, lifeless, boring open world. Saints Row makes Ubisoft games from 5 years ago feel like GTA V on a $5,0000 PC with every mod in existence.

The characters are some of the most cringy, off-putting, unlikable corns I've ever seen. Seriously, who wrote this dialog? Then there's the bus and performance issues. To make things short, this game needed AT LEAST another 6-10 months before release. Needless to say, don't but this game, is awful. I'm 8 hours in and I can't go any further.… Expand

    Convinced that the positive reviews are from Volition employees. This is yet another unpolished bugfest of a game that needed more time in development. The fact we can’t get 4k60 on ps5 is plain embarassing, and don’t even get me started on the pop in. The story was bare bones, too short and the characters were nothing in comparison to the old games.

    Too much preco was not delivered. Just DeepSilver's charade of making the pc game release exclusive on their platform 4 hours before delivery, to sell Notorious packs at $90 has put me off.
    I was able to test the game for a few hours on Ps and it calmed my hype.
    I put a zero point to DeepSilver and a place in my list of game publisher to boycott. I'm fed up with all their ****

    This must be the most unlikeable and cringiest characters ever in a video game. Probably a reflection on the diversity hires that put this game together. It was always going to fail. Go woke get broke. Will they ever learn.

    Game is horrible, plays worse than the first 2 entries and looks like it was an upscaled 360 game, more glitches than Cyberpunk at launch, poor story, not even goof if it were a $20 game, wouldn't play it for free.

    Worst experience in a long time, the game is absolutely garbage and you would think that at least they would be able to top their around 10 year old games, but somehow they managed to make a game that seems like it came out before their old games, and even a year after the release of the game it’s still almost unplayable on all platforms, i for the life of me cannot imagine how so manyWorst experience in a long time, the game is absolutely garbage and you would think that at least they would be able to top their around 10 year old games, but somehow they managed to make a game that seems like it came out before their old games, and even a year after the release of the game it’s still almost unplayable on all platforms, i for the life of me cannot imagine how so many people can be so blind and not see what a big failure it was before releasing it, the idea alone for this game should have been cancelled before anything, but the worst part is definitely the lack of either dedication or experience because these developer’s clearly don’t even know how to program/code basic aim controls and is publicly acting like spoiled kids on social media when called out on anything bad related to their game and claims that anyone who dislikes their ip is in the wrong, truly sad to see how nowadays some people can call themselves developers and create and massive ip like this and then fail so miserably.

    Worst Saints Row to date - And 4 was hard to beat on that account! The game has no soul. It is incredible borring and the characters is so irrelevant. I actually don't mind a few bugs, if the game I plays is good and interesting, but this isn't. It is many years since I was so disappointed with a new game. The game franchise is ruined.

    Making a game about gangs without any gangsters was apparently a bad idea, go figure. Maybe if they ignored everything Anita Sarkeesian told them, or did the opposite of, they might've made a decent game. Nope, they had to make Saints Woke, with copy/pasted combat and gameplay systems of previous titles. In that regard alone I probably could recommend the title.

    Us saints row fans asked volition to listen to us, to go back to the og sr1-2 roots and actually make a decent game, the devs told us to go away.
    This game is broken, lacks depth with npcs, cant rob stores, the vehicles undersides look WORSE than a 2008 game.
    They went to massivly appeal to tik tok gen z and this backfired massively and this is politics aside.
    The saddest part is, santo ileso the city has so much potential, the desert has potential, the car damage models are amazing (scratched paint marks etc)
    but all the minor positives are massively overtaken by all of the negatives. and boy oh boy the game is 99% abysmal at best.
    when will game companies understand majority of gamers want old school games and quality, gen z just wants fortnite low quality dopamine hits. and dopamine hit games flop.

    edit- i still cannot get myself to even complete the game, i have been gaming since 1998 and ive had my fair share of bad games, and you as a gamer can tell if the devs put in some love, soul and effort in a bad game, i can overlook alot in a bad game and still find some hope and light if you will. THIS IS THE WORST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED. honestly it really is and im more sad than mad at this point because they had an opportunity to bring a classic series back to relevancy in the open world crime genre, since you know, R* milked gta v for the past 10 or so years.    … Expand
