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.

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...
Outside of the super set-piece main missions, it’s easy to bounce off the more repetitive elements of the open-world.
When you focus on the various Criminal Ventures at your disposal, you can unearth a lovely little buffet of variety
Technical issues notwithstanding, Saints Row is not without its shortcomings, but it succeeds more often than it doesn't.
