You can absolutely put off other missions until you’ve leveled up some and have better stats and weapons. Just select the mission from the respective mission giver and you’re all set. Rather than driving to a checkpoint somewhere on the map to accept and begin a mission, all available missions are accessible from your in-game cellphone. Structurally I do think Saints Row 3 did improve in some areas over its predecessor, notably in how missions are selected. If this doesn’t bother you, again, you can skip this review and go right to buying. I am well aware that this can seem like a nit-pick and maybe it is but it’s my nit to pick. In Saints Row 3 the options for things like facial hair or even standard hair choices, feel less robust - especially in the facial hair department. In Saints Row 2, I was able to make a reasonable likeness of myself to put myself into the game. If you’ve played that game, you know exactly what to expect, character customization is back and it’s just as limited (in comparison to Saints Row 2) as it was before. It’s not that I expected a remake a la Resident Evil Remake 2 and RE3 Remake, but it’s still a missed opportunity to me to really improve upon the base game.

I did have to bump up the brightness a bit because without headlights (I crashed) it was really hard to see in the less populated areas of Stillwater.īeyond that, however, it really does just look like the same last-gen game, only in higher definition. The most noticeable difference is when driving at night. It’s the same game, only with much better lighting and improved textures. Right out the gate, I will say that if you absolutely loved Saints Row 3 the first time, you’re going to love this remaster. Read on for our Saints Row 3 Remastered review. As far as remasters go, it sure looks better unfortunately little else has been improved. However, nine years have passed and Deep Silver has seen fit to give it the remastered treatment and include all of the DLC. Quite a bit, however, I felt it leaned too far into science fiction and became, dare I say it, too over the top for me to enjoy it as much as Saints Row 2. That’s not to say that I didn’t enjoy Saints Row The Third when it released in 2011, I did. I am decidedly and emphatically in the former. Let me get this out of the way in case you’re wondering. There are two kinds of people: those that prefer Saints Row 2 and those that prefer Saints Row The Third (also known as Saints Row 3).
