Paid about 8$ US, which is cheap as hell. It scratched enough itches to justify that price. I've made worse, and more costly expenditures just ordering fast food before.
I actually like the game. It does have a lot of cringey dialogue. Playing the mission The Forge was annoying because I don’t understand why Neenah didn’t just climb into the monster truck at the start. She wasted my time so she could showboat into the truck. The game has some cool settings. I personally used the easy targeting settings just so I could feel like John Wick and it was kinda fun.
Is the gameplay at least fun? I loved Saints Row 4 and 3 simply because of how enjoyable and fun the gameplay was when I know lots of people hate those games

@@vT_Hauntit’s not so much the game is bad but the story isnt as good compared to sr sr 2 and 3 and it wasn’t worth 60$ when it dropped at most it’s a 30$ game
@@Identity1010 The writing and characters, yes. But everything else? No. This game actually does some things right and even better than previous games. It's just a shame about the writing. If it had the writing quality of SR2 it would actually be a contender for one of the best Saints Row games.
@@onee Kid even if the writing was on par with 2, the game would not be OK. It would be alright at best. I own the game. Thanks for showing you have no idea what you're talking about.
I posted a thing a Reddit a few days ago saying I liked the game. I got over 200 thumbs up, but 90% of the 400 comments were “real fans” of the series calling me names for liking it. God bless internet anonymity…
That's what you don't get, people on the SubReddit are harsh on people who liked or rather overly praise the game because they got the game cheap and when most of the bugs fixed.
Well do you not think its their own damn fault for buying it full price.? Never buy games full price. Especially these days. Day one gamers are just prolonging the problems in the gaming industry. Gotta hurt where the money is.
The open world is really good and what you can do in it. Driving, flying, control and movement of your character. Wasted potential indeed in the story and missions where GTA excelled at.
I don't understand the hate this game is getting. Picked it up when it was free on PS Plus, forgot about it. I noticed it in my library and downloaded it. It is a lot of fun. I like crime games where you build up a criminal empire, and this game fills that desire. Played it directly after finishing Mafia: The definitive edition and the gunplay and driving felt easier in Saints Row.
Bought it used at Gamestop for $7.99 usd. After all the patches it's not that bad but feel bad for anyone who paid more than $40 or full price for this.
Picked this up for £8 in CEX for ps5. Main gripes are the main characters, god they are annoying. Second gripe being barely able to hear the car engines, but love the licenced soundtrack. Third thing is the empty world. Where are the people? It's such an unlived and quiet world. But for £8 it's still a bargain.
I believe that this game could’ve done a little better if it wasn’t a saints row game. If this game was an entire new IP I think people would have enjoyed it a little. But they messed it up shitting on everything that saints stranded for. I could see the vision but I just can’t call this game saints row. A shame this could’ve lead to another good series and a shame that the saints row has to end this way
Just started the vid so idk if you'll mention this or if they added it but last I knew you couldn't even rob stores outside of that early mission/cutscene with your friends. Cant even just kill the cashier's and pop the register or anything. If they made the combat a little less about rushing around using abilities to heal, gave us better weapons/gear, and gave us human shields back or something it coulda been so much better. A beautiful world at times with decent looking locations but not really anything to do in them. No animals to hunt or anything in this kinda map was a bit weird. You'll see some cool locations with arcades, crowds, and some cool little decorations. Then there's nothing really there as if they made the map,then put some mediocre side missions/activities, and added some lazy story into the mix but then never actually ended up breaking any life into the world itself. Go on the water and shoot boats? Boring. Get into a police chase? You lose them in like 5 seconds and have to slow down for them to catch up if you wanna have a long or interesting chase. Wanna rob a store? You can't. This is a barebones experience that is lacking almost any sign of the saints row magic we all love from 2 and 3. Lack of interiors is also a huge negative. I remember going into police stations, lawyer offices, clothing stores, casinos, and so many other places in the other games. The only real thing I can say I liked was the character creator detail.
It's not the best written but from every other aspect I'm personally feeling it's one of the best in the series, saints row 2 is still the best, but I think we all remember 3 as being better than it really was, 4 was super cringe, gat out of hell personally is up there in my favorites, but if you take this, and saints row 3 remastered, and play them side by side back to back, this game is better, this game has less likeable characters, that's about it, it's much better at executing missions and stories, gameplay is roughly similar, customization is much better, so on so fourth, I think people just shit on this one because it's not "what it could be", and I think that's mostly the camp of people who love saints row 2 and still wish the series could become the GTA killer people once thought it could be
I'm annoyed that I could not buy it on release on steam. It was not available. Kinda freakin hard to just go off of the sales number of this game, when WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN. It just was not purchasable. I wanted it. I tried to buy it. I couldn't. The sales numbers are totally ruined from that
3 on xbox 360 was pretty empty but on current consoles its pretty lively with a bunch of pedestrians walking around & police chasing people if they crashed into them, but honestly 2 was the best in terms of gameplay & being able to rob stores have gang battles & have tons of cheats that were fun but gat out of hell was the worst one for me I don't know why people loved it on my Xbox one which was a shit console it crashed a lot & the world was small & boring & I haven't played the new one yet but I'm willing to give it a try during the next big sale & 4 was complete shit & 1 was ok the saints you'd recruit were pretty shit because they sucked ass at shooting even if you gave them automatic weapons & they'd get in your way a lot & some of the missions were ass because the npcs would glitch out & just fet stuck in a wall or some bs but I hope they do a good remaster of 2 with keeping everything they had exactly the same gameplay wise & maybe adding some more things like cars & bringing back the car based off the Ferrari Enzo in the 1st game & getting rid of that horrible foggy graphics a lot of games loved to use back then like gta 4 & some of the Tom Clancy games I hated that shit it was a visual nightmare
I guess this is ultimately what I'm wondering, just how this game compares to Saints Row 2... because SR2 is the best of the series, but in hindsight I kinda feel like if SR2 had come out today it would possibly get average reviews too.
the game is literally trash bottom to top but like that wasnt enough they went woke and turn our beloved franchise into a lgbt simulator, there was nothing about saints row in this game, 3rd street saints suppose to be a hardcore brutal street gang not this family friendly gays holding hands type sht
