Gameplay bugs me as much as the first version. I really hate the boss-battle motif. If you do like that, likely you will have great fun with this. It is a good challenge in that way.

The story is really good, and compelling music really adds tremendously to the action.

I just don't have any fun playing it.

Low resolution and I've had multiple COD but hey - it's Saints Row. C'mon. I didn't even wait for a sale.

What a huge disappointment so far. Certainly not worth the asking price.

Clunky controls. Corridor progression. Hitching graphics. Too damn many ugly white sweaters.

This environment keeps surprising me. Thought it was just another AC but it's not. After 40+ hours of playing this with a friend, I had to get it for myself too. Still best on sale.

Still has the best sound in the genre.

Call me when you fix the FFB for Logitech G27 wheels. Right now its not playble.

Still the funniest game on the planet. Not for the politically correct.

Glad I waited to get it on sale. Far cry 3 without words, Voss.

Wow - a WRC that works. Finally.

I really enjoyed playing this with freinds. Then when the event ends, you put us into opposing factions randomly. Why would you do that to your customers that are trying to play together? I don't understand.

Update:
Well, I am still playing it months later which should say something. The thing that tripped me up the most was/is that every time I looked into something that I imagined being simple it turned out to have significant detail and depth. Trading, capturing horses, chatting with NPCs even. There is so much more than meets the eye.

It was all overwhelming so I stopped trying and just walked across the map to areas where my character level should not be. It let me. Then I tried to walk back (no fast travel) and found I had to take a different route. I died so many times. Took me two weeks. Best fun I've had in a long time.

Its deep and intricate, but it doesn't make you do anything. Just go have fun. Thanks Steam, but I don't need an undecided anymore - even if I don't know how everything works. Most fun for $10 in a long time.


Original (shortened):
I was real excited about this all the way through level 18. Fantastic combat system.

Then I tried to do some specific things like fishing, horse taming and it started to fall apart. It is a seriously complex and intertwinned system. It usually works, but begrudingly. There are times were it just makes me quit.

I really like this game, but it really tics me off. Not sure I can play it much more, but I want to. I am divided.

Hey steam - I need a "undecided" button. As it is, I will give them the benefit of the doubt and recommend.
