    Just an awful experience. Completely boring and empty open world with detestable characters. Not even worth it on a sale.

    Woke trash that developers think that every 30- years old agree, but in fact normal people reject.

    Cringey, unlikeable, woke characters. Embarrassing dialog, repetitive/boring gang fights. Thank Anita Sarkeesian for this trash game and the idiots at Embracer for the direction they’ve taken this franchise.

    Game is a buggy mess. Gameplay is repetitive and boring. The graphis feel outdated. The writing is terrible story wise and dialog. The devs should be ashamed of releasing a game this bad

    Terrible character and world design. Buggy and average gaming. You could tell this game was not made by people who loved the original series. Unfortunately for them, getting lots of likes from fake political Twitter accounts does not increase sales.

    Resumindo: O jogo foi feito para agradar uma turma que nem video game tem, enquanto isso deixou os fãs de lado e por isso o jogo é um total fracasso.

    R.I.P saints row franchise.

    My god what a stale ass, boring game. Story sucks, humor was written by 2 year olds who don't understand humor. Game has outdated mechanics, nothing really new here but some bs wingsuit. Charchters are boring asf, game is to politically correct. Uninteresting unlockables, repetitive game play, bugs that effect game play that stops you from progression.

    I have never seen a game franchise do so bad with such a easy game to make, people want the old saints back, not this woke anti capitalist, buggy, cringe mess. I legit couldn't recommend this to anyone at all.

The game genuinely feels very clanky and is definitely buggy in a way that makes you remember Cyberpunk 2077. I forced myself to get past the first part and once I was in the open world, it became horribly intolerable to play with several bugs and glitches, NPCs aren't as interactive as previous Saints Row games, the game feels very stripped down of what made it fun in the first place. No cheats (although could be patched in).

    Overall, I had to stop playing after the first mission, it became a very uncomfortable and unenjoyable experience. Even Saints Row 4 was enjoyable despite how wacky it was.    … Expand

The shooting mechanics are just absolutely some of the worst in video game history. The driving feels so cheap. There is no doubt that the same cringe wokester mindset people they hired to write this terrible story and cringe characters were hired to code this mess. You can see the same lack of intelligence. On several missions In a group of 30 AI enemies 20 of them were literally the same avatar of some cringe diversity character instead of just making more people to fight against. What in the world is that about? Just the type of cringe lazy lack of creativity you would expect from a these type of people. It feels absolutely nothing like the saints row games at all to make this all so much more insulting. If you cringe wokesters wanted to go make a game like this that would have been one thing but why did they have to destroy the saints row franchise with these terrible ideas. Game must have been made by young kids fresh out of some college that brainwashed them into communists to have come out with a piece of garbage smelling this bad.… Expand

    Horribly unfinished, bewilderingly outdated and lacks any appeal. Outside of being a bug ridden and horrendously underbaked game, it is still the worst game in a franchise that spans 16 years.

    Out of all the games i played, cyberpunk, fallout 76, no mans sky day 1, i just had to create a metacritic account to give this a solid 0 stars. I have played all the saints row games. Loved SR2. But this is by far worse experience in gaming i had to date. Wish i could refund this

    Pleasing the critics was their main goal, and even they hate it, and it shows because the game is boring, buggy, and it has an empty world. The combat has not evolved since the previous entry and the rival gangs have 00 depth.

    Absolute garbage, Saints Row titles always had re-playability... this just gives me a headache. When I play video games it's to escape world issues, and this just made me feel I wasted my time and money.

    If you notice on the map there are three roads that lead outside the map, most likely you will travel to certain "new" locations to end the gangs actual hide out. To eventually root them out or to become part of the saints. My reasoning for this is at end of certain missions they will call you and say "Call me when you want to take out (said gang)" but you never have that option. Overall, this was probably meant to be in the game at launch, but they focused on other things just to pass it off as DLC. Story is lacking, hopefully this will fix things. speaking on that, this isn't confirmed and an opinion. but with the bugs and lack of content other than the customization, can you tell me this is an actual game? Saints Row wasn't known for customization until SR3 it was known for the story. We hit the peak in this series back for SR2. Please do not buy the game, if you feel you need to, go replay Saints row 1 (2006) and Saints Row 2.    … Expand

    This game is buggy as hell. The story isn’t even intriguing. It doesn’t even feel like Saints Row but a cheap knock-off that lacks imagination, ingenuity, and talent. Speechless. Mad I preordered it, would love a refund and my time back.

    This game is an uninspired piece of garbage. The “comedy” is cringe and the gameplay is awful. Nothing about this game is redeemable and $60 is way to much for what has the graphics of a mobile game.

    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]
