And the developer will come out and make a statement blaming poor sales on toxic masculinity

Hopefully. Need them to spiral more and eventually shut down. Don't want them putting out another product like this.

Looking forward to playing it, looks quite a bit of fun despite the poor reception it's got.

Hard pass from me. I quite trust SkillUp as his opinions generally line up with mine and it doesn't look too appealing even without looking at reviews.

+1, just waiting for the price to tank.

Got it free with the AMD game pack when I bought the 6700xt for my son so can wait to try it.

All they had to do was go back to the original concept and get some good driving and physics back into the game.

Now there's a shame.

Suppose I'll play it when it ends up being the free game on EGS in 18 months time.

Never played any of the SR games. Got this installed but not yet bothered to try it.

No dubstep gun = no purchase from me

Got this for £20 off MM, Its runs fine and looks ok, does have a bit more pop-in than other games bot not too bothered by it.

Have played through quite a lot of the game now.
Bugs:
The Xbox control(on PC) stops working until the game is restarted.
The mobile phone bugs out sometimes so cannot view stuff.
Some menu's bug out just like the mobile phone, probably same bug.
Pop-in is crazy bad in some places and bad everywhere else.

Overall I dont think its as bad as its made out to be, at £50+ it's not good but at £20 its ok. If you like Saints Row game's you will probably like it.
It does feel a bit unfinished but hopefully patches will improve it. Had a 5GB patch so far, dont know what it did.
