Woke’s Row meets Dork’s Row and you get this new “Saint’s Row”. This game is what happens when you hire fresh out of college talentless losers who think being a “gangster” is wearing a bow tie and having glasses.
IRL I know people who miss all their opps, because they refuse to wear their glasses. Mans is blind and blasting but rather miss and empty the mag than look like a dork in front of the set. Not here, they embrace being a complete geek.
Imagine Adin Ross’ friend “Neon” and picture him being a gangster… now that you’ve pictured how comical that it, THIS game is just that. Instead of sacking up, and attempting to compete with GTA. They are playing it safe with the wackiness that SR3 did (the game that ruined the series). SR2 is peak Saint’s Row. SR1 was great, SR2 was slightly better. Whatever happened to the pimp-slap multiplayer? SR1 had some funny (without trying too hard) content and they killed it, in all the right ways.
This game is not worth anything more than $20. Do NOT buy at full price. You’re getting extremely out-dated graphics and gameplay, with the worst characters and story in the series. This is NOT Saint’s Row. This is Woke’s Row. Too much “inclusion” and not enough “Streets”.
This is Starbucks Kosher Vegan Soy Chicken. Not what we really want: Popeyes roach infested chicken with mice wearing du-rags and timberland boots serving you chicken.
STOP hiring cave-dwelling caucazoid GEEKS for Saints Row’s writing and development. Hire some highschool dropouts with some melanin, bullet scars and a couple felonies.
I mean Jesus Christ of Nazareth! Who OK’d this game!?? Who at Volition said “You know what… I hate money and my career”?? Anyways, hard pass for a cent over $20
