If you want to go with “standard” that’s cool as well, but why not give your Boss unnatural coloured pupils such as neon pink, blue or yellow. For example, you can choose the “Triple Iris Eyes” which gives you three blue pupils, or the “Psychedelic Eyes” which looks like their eyes are wearing an LSD inspired tie from the 60s, or “Smiling Eyes” which gives them emoji smiling faces instead of irises. This lets you change the complete look of your Boss’ eyeballs so that instead of having the standard brown, blue, green, you are given 17 contact lens style choices. The customisation of your character’s eyes are one of the most impressive elements of the Factory due to its “Advanced” option. James Taylor, the World Contextualisation Lead for Saints Row, notes a key tip is to “start with a Boss pre-set and go right to the head” and tackle the “eyes, nose and mouth first.” The first thing to note is that if you do feel overwhelmed, which you just might due to the array of options, the game does provide you with eight pre-set options. There are eight categories for you to mess around with to create your unique Boss, right down to the socks and other underwear they are fitted out in. Saints Row has always been very big on giving their player’s autonomy, and that is definitely evident in their Boss Factory.
Let’s break down some of the highlights of the Boss Factory and how the options available are so uniquely Saints Row. Even though no narrative gameplay is available yet, I still felt that I was playing a Saints Row game due to the extent of the customisation choices and the slick, zany vibes of these options. The Saints character creators are legendary for including options and being able to alter certain body parts that are considered too taboo for other developers. Therefore, like the franchise itself, you are building your Boss from scratch. This character has been dubbed your Boss, because the revamped Saints sees the series start afresh, which means its main narrative will focus on the origins of the notorious group of gang members. Saints Row Boss Factory is where you create the character that you will embody during your time in the new Saints Row. With the base game only a few months away from releasing, I knew that getting a sneak peek at the Saints Row Boss Factory would be a pretty wild ride. Actually, “boring” would be the perfect antonym for Saints Row, which traditionally is wacky, loud and isn’t afraid to push boundaries. If you had to describe Saints Row, “boring” would not be an adjective that is mentioned.
