    It's consistently hilarious. [Christmas 2013, p.111]

    Definitely recommended for anyone who cannot get enough gimp chariot racing.

    Enter the Dominatrix, as a new batch of downloadable gameplay content, is short, disjointed, and not especially challenging. As an entire experience, however, it’s an utterly fascinating look at what was left on the cutting-room floor in the making of Saints Row IV—and a must for any serious fans of the latest adventures of the 3rd Street Saints.

    If you expect nothing too much, Enter the Dominatrix will be worth your while. It may be short and easy but the jokes are great and the missions are absurd in a good way.

    There's a faint whiff of missed opportunity about Enter The Dominatrix, then, but four or five really good laughs are enough to warrant a cautious thumbs-up. Volition's made a half-decent fist of reheating its own leftovers, and with the injection of fresh ingredients, the next episode - brilliantly titled How The Saints Saved Christmas - promises to be even more of a giggle.

    Enter The Dominatrix is a simple DLC package that adds five missions and extra content to unlock. The missions are never challenging, and never manages to get as hilarious as you’d expect, though it can still be quite entertaining. Because the other content isn’t enough reason to keep playing, you’ll be done with it in one and a half hours. Except for a few shits and giggles, it doesn’t have much to offer.

    Enter the Dominatrix is a DLC for Saints Row IV that we can recommend only to diehard fans of the series: so focused onto silly dialogues and situations to the point of overlook almost completely the quality of the gameplay.

    Quite bland. The meta stuff has some funny moments but it's very understandable why it was cut and cancelled. No particularly great gameplayQuite bland.

    Being a huge fan of the DLC from Saints Row The Third, but not entirely one of Saints Row IV I bought this DLC with some skepticism.Being a huge fan of the DLC from Saints Row The Third, but not entirely one of Saints Row IV I bought this DLC with some skepticism. Unfortunately ETD is a mess of a DLC and hardly worth the asking price.

    The five missions last just under an hour, especially if you've played through SRIV and fully levelled up your character. The missions feel extremely disjointed, and while this is intentional the cutscenes explaining this disconnect are rather messy and out of place.

    The exciting superpower gameplay is still here, it's a shame that the content doesn't compliment it at all.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Complete waste of time and money. A DLC that never got entirely past the conceptualization stage to say the least. It starts out well enough and the mockumentary style humor is pretty funny, but in reality the only thing the DLC has going for it is the mockumentary humor. The actual gameplay, once you get past Zinak, nosedives into tedium, with a significant amount of cutscenes being storyboarded--including a boss fight to boot. You'll end up fighting an enemy that gets old and tired fast (gimps and hos, ad nauseam) and the villain has no personality to begin with. Many interesting concepts contained within are under explained or just have the player dropped into the scenario, without any build up or journey. The resolution and ending come completely out of left field and aren't funny in the slightest. Thankfully, this didn't come out for SR3 and was instead re-purposed and polished into Saints Row 4. The 6 dollar asking price could be forgiven... if they had only put more effort into making the missions coherent and relevant, instead of disjointed messes that only last an hour. I'm not kidding, this DLC lasts ONLY ONE HOUR. The unlocks and new characters for the main game don't excuse the mess that is Enter The Dominatrix. Avoid. Expand
