One of the most underrated games that ever got released! This game is so enjoyable and had such a funny story, of course you can't expect a huge story with serious stuff, because thats not what Saints Row is about. Saints Row is just funny and random stuff, while you are building up a criminal empire! I really loved the game and I had such a fun time going for the platinum and 100%. I recommend it to everyone who didn't play it because it had bad reviews.

All of these changes… and for what? A very predictable ending as well

É um jogo bem mediano, a história achei bem fraca e não me prendeu em nada, o que me fez terminar o game foi a jogabilidade que é legalzinha, mas não passa disso. Quem tiver a oportunidade de jogar em algum serviço de assinatura e não tiver mais nada pra jogar, talvez valha a tentativa.

On Monday at 3am, I decided to stay awake and get this platinum. It took me about 3 days of nothing but playing this.
Was it worth it? Is it really as bad as everyone says it is?
Here's my thoughts on the reboot of Saints Row:
Right off the back, Saints Row begins with an incredible character creator. I seriously adore the creator and the work that was put into it. You really can just be anything and anyone you'd like to be. The best part is that you can change yourself at any point in the game. Something I believe every game should offer. Sometimes I want to change my voice or my gender for the fun of it and this game lets you mix and match every bit of character at any point in the game. It manages to make one of the better custumisations into perfection in my opinion.
So my character looks good but does it look good in a good game? The answer is yeah, if you're nostalgic for older gen games.
The thing with this reboot is that it literally is just another Saints Row. It takes the first game and adds the insane whackiness that 3 has. It isn't serious AT ALL and that's what makes it a fun game. If you miss that feeling of being a kid playing a PS2 or 360 and you're down for a little more mature of game to laugh at, THIS is the game that gives that feeling.
It's an extremely fun video game. Walking around with my tits out and not censored as I flame punch enemies into a train and then fly away in a helicopter only to wingsuit out of it and land on a car.
This game isn't your oscar bait Sony experience. It's not your insane esports game.
Saints Row 2022 is a shut your brain off and have fun kind of game.
That being said, alllllll the issues that apply to those older gen games is all present here. The biggest issue with Saints Row is sadly exactly what it is. It's a PS3 game that looks like a PS5 game.
As it stands now, this game has awful bugs and glitches that can mess up save data, crash the game, make it so that you can't shoot or NPC's don't act as they should. It's a nightmare sometimes and I didn't even encounter half the amount people were reporting.
Even outside the glitches, Saints Row suffers from god awful side missions that litter the map. The platinum grind rears It's ugly head out when you realise the game is 10 hours story, 30 hours exhausting side missions that go for 2-5 minutes each and add NOTHING to the story. It is all just "we have an open world game and we needed you to have something to do"
The story is not very inspiring, however I liked the characters. I think the room-mates trying to make it in a city of crime is just dumb fun. It's cool to see them rise up as dorks to bad asses. Each of them really felt like friends. They may not be the original crew everyone loves but I think they fit the story really well even if they don't hit AS hard.
They're young adults making a name for themselves because why the fuck not and that is Saints Row to me.
Overall, Saints Row is a fun ass video game that is riddled with glitches and uninspiring side content that bore me to death. What is there in the story, the jokes, the character creator is extremely solid and a great foundation for the series to keep going.
It's 100% a wait for sale, wait for updates game but if you're looking to blow shit up and have enjoyable cringy jokes to back it all up, then check it out.
Not all games need to be serious but they do all need to work ❤
