Saints Row Reviews
There were high lows and high lows in this quest for Saint Ileso. Not all of it was bad, it is fun yes, be it the bugs in the animations or the chaos that comes from the set of factors I mentioned. An interesting sandbox with little life.

The new Saints Row features enjoyable open-world gameplay but bland characters and an overall timid story make it the weakest entry in the series.
Saints Row is one of those hilariously bad games you have to experience for yourself. But it’s not ‘awful’ – just excruciatingly generic and downright dull.
Saints Row provided a fun shooting style, stages with a varied design and full of action and movement. But it failed to deliver a coherent story, with poor technical performance that made her last delay worthless

The 2022 reboot of Saints Row manages to put together a decently engaging crew, but just about everything else is a litany of issues - from shallow and repetitive missions to unsatisfying action mechanics, poor presentation, and plenty of bugs.
It's sad to admit, but Saints Row has become exactly what it used to mock within the genre and there's not a single reason to check out this underwhelming reboot.
The new cast of characters and their interactions with each other is great and is, in my opinion, the best part of the game. As for the rest, if you’ve played the past games, you’ve probably seen and experienced everything else the game has to offer.
With fast-paced clashes, thunderous explosions, customization options, and a satiric tone that dominates its setting, Saints Row puts a great impression at the start but soon after that you'll yourself stuck in a massive world that discourages exploration due to crude repetition, shallow side activities, and an overall design that makes Santo Eliso lifeless. On the other hand, the game offers a group of characters who try to look charismatic but don't have the background or the traits to get attached to, and a story that quickly loses its way and ends in a frustrating way.

Volition's name has always been tied with destructible environments, and Saints Row's reboot is no different. Unfortunately, that's not the only familiar thing as the level design, combat and gameplay mechanics are all mostly the same as almost 15 years ago.

With a generic open world, an uninteresting cast, and an extensive list of bugs, Saints Row fails in its core mission to introduce the franchise with pageantry to a new generation. Here you can still find traces of the uncompromising creativity that once put the series on the industry and gamers map, but for the most part, Volition's work shows that renewing for the sake of renewing isn't always the best choice.

Technical problems take the experience two steps back, since I met several bugs and after the day one patch. the development team would have to work on the title for at least a year more and maybe we would be talking about one of the best chapters in the franchise.

Deep Silver Volition has failed miserably to repeat the success of Saints Row Predecessors. Saints Row 2022 at best, is an entertaining experience filled with technical issues, repetitive missions and ample bugs. Should you ignore its issues and problems, you may have a good time playing Saints Row because of its silliness. But please note that Saints Row 2022 is nothing spectacular.

Overall, Saints Row consist of both good and bad parts, but the bad parts leave more of an impression on the player. It's also a shame that while there is some genuine fun to be had with the game, as some effort was clearly put in trying to imitate many aspects of the original series, it still doesn't live up to even the worst of what the series had to offer.
Volition's reboot mixes its shameless action with witty social commentary to nice effect, but fails to construct a compelling open world
Saints Row is a huge disappointment for the fans of action open world games, everything this game has to offer is mediocre at best and didn't bring anything new to the series, if anything it feels like a step back with how unpolished and generic the game is

Imagine a huge bustling world yours for the taking. Beautiful sandy deserts, towering skyscrapers, endless enemies to kill. Now imagine doing the same things you’ve done in other video games countless times in this beautiful world. That’s Saints Row.
Saints Row is an entertaining experience, with problems such as lack of personality or how repetitive it can become, as well as serious problems in its technical section. It's not the triumphant return that it seemed it would be, but it may be able to satisfy the less demanding fans of this franchise.

The Saints Row reboot really brings the franchise back to when it was just a street gang trying to rise up the ranks. While the story does have its moments with a large variety of fun activities to do alone or with a friend, it’s unfortunately bogged down by outdated gameplay mechanics and technical issues.
While I miss the edge of the original Saints Row games, this reboot stays true enough to the tone and, if nothing else, is a fun game worth the $60 price tag. My biggest gripes with it come from comparing it to the hype of its own series, but if it wasn’t called Saints Row I probably wouldn’t have any problems with it.
A must have for all the Saints Row franchise fans but maybe a little bit old-fashioned for the rest. It seems to be targeted for the previous console generation and its technical muscle is not at the expected level. Anyway you will enjoy a lot with the game if you do not expect too much from it.
