Stay away from this DLC if you’re looking for a deep and emotional story, but embrace it if you’re in for a wacky experience: in fact, don’t miss it.

Enter the Dominatrix has been underway for quite some time: It was originally scheduled to be a DLC for Saints Row: The Third, but due to THQ going out of business, it was sent into the abyss of forgetfulness. Lucky enough, Deep Silver bought Voilition and resurrected the Saints series, but announced they would make a SR 4 instead of the DLC alone.

The gametime in this DLC is quite short, but full of fun. Game mechanics feels rough and unpolished, yet it fells right into where the rest of the game is: full of gags, jokes and easter eggs. For example a huge health bar that in no way would fit in any other game. Making weird cutscenes adds to the non existing crucial connecting thread: they are not consistent. On the contrary. One scene is presented by storyboard pictures while another one is played out by a staffer holding a set of figurines. It’s hard to not think “did they ran out of money when they started rendering the cutscenes?”, but since this is unlikely, there’s no doubt these were made on purpose.

While the gametime is short, there’s a lot of content, so all in all, I’d say the price vs. content is worth a purchase. Now we just have to wait for the next DLC: “How the Saints saved Christmas”.
