Saints Row IV: Re-Elected

[Overview] Saints Row IV isn't a terrible game by any means, but being a game that's in the Saints Row franchise, it's not very good. This game suffers from many of the issues that Saints Row: The Third had, but worse. Saints Row IV is ultimately a product of Volition ignoring all the constructive feedback they got from Saints Row: The Third. [Positives] - The game's music is pretty solid, though some of it feels disconnected from the games themes. - The superpowers can be fun at times, despite the issues they cause. - Some of the missions are fun and memorable. [Negatives] - GOG version reportedly contains Epic Games Launcher DRM. - It suffers from an overly goofy plot that is difficult to connect to in any way other than pure humor. - Steelport still feels completely empty and lifeless, once you complete the story and collectibles, there's really nothing to do. - No cribs or crib customization. Remember when this series was about running a gang empire? - The game has little difficulty due to the OP super powers and the super sprint ability makes driving cars basically useless in a Saints Row game. - Co-op is very buggy on PC, both players need to lock their FPS to the same number or else certain scripted missions will just completely break and become unbeatable. [Conclusion] Saints Row IV comes off as a weird flanderization of the most shallow aspects of the franchise and it excludes the things that made it big in the first place. Volition was so afraid of Saints Row being considered a "GTA Clone" they they decided to get rid of anything resembling the first two games. If Saints Row IV were released under a different franchise, I wouldn't have many issues with it, but this game being shoehorned into Saints Row just doesn't work. For the record, even though The Third was a downgrade from SR2, I actually did like it despite it's many flaws. Saints Row IV, however ignored all of it's issues and even amplified some of them. Making it one of the most controversial games in the franchise. The presence of DRM on the GOG version is ridiculous and completely contradicts what the platform is meant to be. On a more positive note, Saints Row IV is still far better than Gat Out of Hell and the garbage reboot. 6/10

EPIC!!!!!

You get to shoot down aliens on an antiaircraft turret outside of the White House within the first then minutes of the game, what more is there to say! This game is ridiculously over the top fun, I totally loved the use of super powers in this game. Deep Silver Volition took an already awesome game concept and made it better with the addition of super powers you can strengthen throughout the game.

What is wrong with me?

I used to dodge Saints Row games because I was too heavily playing GTA but... my word I totally ripped myself off! I bought them on a whim recently from GOG and I have had the most fun in months playing! I wish I could go back and kick younger me in the butt for discounting such a great title and series. Yes, it's outlandish but oh, I love every moment of it. Saints Row is basically the experience of a modded to insanity version of GTA where you have a guy driving a piano down the street, beating someone down with dubstep and oh, just buy it already! You won't regret it! Get them all and start at the beginning.

Jumbled mess

For the first few hours feels fun and the chaos you can unleash is gratifying. After the initial high though, the game falls really flat because the controls are very unprecise and the frustration starts to build up. Most of the story missions are reliant on tight timing and precise movements. The movement speed you unlock with skill points fairly early on exacerbates the spongy control feel even more. Graphics, sound and the general feel of the sandbox chaos are still great, it's just that the whole package feels bad after a few hours. The feel of it reminds me of Just Cause 2, just that this hasn't crashed once (for JC2's crash every 15 minutes).

A great sandbox parody game

Bottomline, Saints Row 4 is a game stacked high with parody and humourous references and remarks. Considering that it takes about 30 - 40 hours to quickly go through the task content, that is a boatload of stuff enjoy. That is, if you get the references. Matrix, Transformers The Movie (1986) and a ton of video game references including EVERY SINGLE past Saints Row title. You even have new dialogue for Julius Little. Some parts lifted straight from the past titles, including the scene with Veteran Child holding Shaundi as a hostage. This time they wisely give you a stun gun to replace the original SR2 scene of THROWING GRENADES AT THE TWO PEOPLE to 'distract' them. The game has a lot of replicating content such as multiple driving sing-a-longs to mirror that one in the beginning of SR3. Gameplay-wise, there is not much driving in the game as you can now glide faster than the max speed of a sports car. The flipside is that to get those cool abilities, you need to collect a lot of collectibles to unlock them. Thus, there are two bad parts in the game: the mandatory collectibles (you need about 1000 of them for full unlocks) and Genki Holiday Special activity. The game reuses the SR3 map and characters. It is considerably more resource intensive than SR3 when played on the street level, though runs okay when gliding high above everything. I hijacked a car only a couple of times during the whole game. The radio music is off by default and instead there is soft synth background music. I noticed more scenario-specific tunes here than in SR3. Most side missions revolve around activities, so here activities are practically the side missions. The main story is quite short and the bulk of the tasks is activities. There is no repeat activities from SR3 besides Fraud, so they are pretty fresh. The two DLC missions are extensive, 3+6 missions. The longer Enter the Dominatrix is particularly good. E.g. one of the objectives involve caging furries at a club.
