The story is bad and I do not like this 12 playable characters thing. It feels like they wanted to make some cartoony battle royale game then changed their minds and turned it into a crappy singleplayer game. The city is also completely uninteresting. It doesn't feel like I'm in Seoul at all.

The writing is awful, a white hot trying-too-hard fire, but the game itself is pretty fun. I was a huge fan of Crackdown years ago, so this one is also fitting well. Not sure how long it will keep my interest, but it was $3 on sale on PSN, so I've already gotten my money's worth, I'd say.

Just unlocked Daisy. She's already become my favorite character and I see me taking her to end game, also Gaunt needs to die.

Also, also, collectibles are crack now that I upgraded the scanner to see them...

I'm guessing I should be just under half way to finishing the main story, so we should be seeing a more formal review …

Forgot to check in last night after the stream.

This was a much better session. All the major control issues I was initially blaming on the game, were actually caused by a keyboard setting that was accidentally enabled. I thought that was the case towards the end of the the first session and can now confirm after yesterday. Things played out MUCH better.

I've also unlocked a few more characters and I basically left the starting crew behind 😆. You can see the Saints Row influence for sure, and I don't just mean all the references. I accidentally caused a SR4 Warden event to spawn after messing around and it was a pleasant surprise.

I plan on finishing the main story and character unlocks, but I don't think I'll be doing a %100 run.

First day of checking out the game. It's not that bad, but it's no Saint's Row.

I'm liking the characters and the different combos that you can come up with. I can also hear the call of the collectible BS floating around the city.

I'm liking the characters and the different combos that you can come up with. I can also hear the call of the collectible BS floating around the city.

I feel like they could have skipped on the Saturday Morning Cartoon vibe with that animations and just stuck to in-engine cut scenes. It also feels like the driving has actually gotten worse.

So far, it's going to get another chance. It may get placed into my "Play Offline" shelf if I don't feel it'll hold up well to streaming.

Lately I find I am suffering from open world fatigue. As much as I am enjoying this game, that fatigue is setting it. I am tired of the activity loop and I think I am going to finish the main campaign and call it a day.

Well, I have been playing a bit of Agents of Mayhem. Not a revolutionary game by any means, but far more fun that reviews for the game had led me to believe. It's a bit like a single player Overwatch, grafted onto the style of open world and humour of Saints Row. You have a large assortment of agents with various abilities to chose from, and swapping characters is frequently the key to success. It's a fun, action packed and albeit slightly repetitive game (what open world game isn't?) that I am having a blast playing. While it is not quite as clever as the mainline Saints Row games, it has its moments. It does a very decent job satirizing Saturday morning cartoons that gives me a regular chuckle, and the 90s era inspired X-Men (and related Marvel) character skins are a pleasing and geeky touch. Also Gat, Kinzie and Pierce are back, so what Saints Row fan wouldn't love that? (as for why that is possible, and how this game relates to Saints Row 3 and 4, the answer can be found in Saints Row: Gat out of Hell)

It's not an amazing game by any stretch. It is a little repetitive and unimaginative. It is also super cheap right now and quite competent.

All others need not apply.
