Laser Lemming Writes "Enter the Dominatrix has been a long time in the making, initially planned as DLC for Saints Row The Third before being expanded upon, and for the best part, assimilated into Saints Row IV, before weirdly enough getting announced as one of two DLC packs for Saints Row IV
Presented as a TV special in which the Saints reminisce about the original version of Saints Row IV that was left on the cutting room floor, guest staring Donnie who was later cut from the game. Enter the Dominatrix provides gamers with an alternative take on the Zin invasion in which Zinyak is the least of the Saint’s problems as the simulation is taken over by a powerful AI known as the Dominatrix and her army of sex slaves."
Remember this year's Saints Row(opens in new tab)? Volition would probably prefer that you didn't, which might go some way to explaining why the studio recently decided to upgrade everyone's copy of Saints Row 4(opens in new tab) to its full-fat Re-elected Edition, containing all the game's story and cosmetic DLC and even introducing cross-play between Steam, Epic, and GOG versions of the game.
Unfortunately, that upgrade seems to have backfired, and players now report a myriad of bugs with their new version of SR4. Both the Saints Row Steam forums(opens in new tab) and subreddit(opens in new tab) are filled with players complaining of broken saves, crashes, and mods failing to function. It's also received a few hundred negative Steam reviews(opens in new tab) since the update. If it's succeeded in washing the taste of Saints Row (2022) out of players' mouths, it's only because it tastes even worse.
I wonder if Volition's getting reorged under Gearbox impacted the quality of their release.
When it comes ranking the Saints Row games, there are a couple of weird ones you have to consider, though this is Saints Row after all.
