Finished (playing): Agents of Mayhem
Playing: ?
I've been having a hard time trying to decide what I'm in the mood to play, I decided to check out Agents of Mayhem since I knew that it was more of a pick up and play action game. I shared my initial impressions of it in the previous backlog thread, and if you read them then you know that they weren't very positive.
Based on what I played of it, I found it to be a rather repetitive and shallow third person run-and-gun shooter taking place in a good looking but ultimately lifeless and uninteresting open city. The gameplay literally consisted of killing wave after wave of enemies.
It's a big step back compared to Volition's Saints Row series. Like Angry Joe said, while playing it he would rather be playing a Saints Row game instead and I have to agree. It shares some similarities to Saints Row: The Third and Saints Row IV, but isn't nearly as good as either of them. So yeah, I would rather play them again instead of Agents of Mayhem which is similar but not as good.
I found some charm to the game so there's always a chance that I might try it again in the future, but only after I've run out of games that I'm really interested in playing which probably won't ever happen since I currently have like 200 games with more currently out and coming out that I want. I'm glad that I only paid $9.99 for it, because it's unlikely that it's something that I will ever play again.
I don't know what to play now.
