I'm usually a calm person but I’ve never wished so hard for a game to fail, crash and burn like this Saints Row reboot. I dunno, makes my blood boil, just me?
I'm usually a calm person but I’ve never wished so hard for a game to fail...
I just want the sr2 patch so I can be done with volition
I want a remake of 2, back when the series knew how to balance whacky with GTA style crime. 3 is where it all went wrong, and they rushed out an unfinished product that forever tainted the series afterwards.
Also I fucking wish The Punisher would get a remaster or remake. What a gem
Why doesn't Volition make a kino game like Summoner 3? All the original devs are there.
me too. Wouldn't have hated it so much if they didn't blatantly shit on older fans in some weird attempt to garner more popularity from newfags.
Then when that backfired they get all apologetic and shit. Can't even stick to their guns.
Zoomers haven't heard of it, won't sell
everything wrong with gaming in one game cover lel
What is with this game? Its like they took zoomer tier borderlands and stuck it in some southwestern dusthole city.
Also the ball head pisses me off for some reason.
Not even newfags are buying this. Saints Row 3 and 4 already shat on fans, this is just a confusing "How do you do, fellow kids" weird ass attempt. There's no fucking grit to these criminals, just the same old inoffensive millennial hipster trash we've seen a dozen times. It looks nothing like Saints, just a factory made/focus tested borefest to look at indistinguishable from other covers we've seen
This has the same "energy" as Watch Dogs 2
It's like the Marvel movies made an entire generation of 'creatives' into complete retards
Saints Row was typically about a multicultural gang. Nu Saints Row remembers to be multicultural but forgets to make the Saints a gang. They seem like a LGBT uprising.
Watch Dogs 2 bombed and was laughed at, right?
Yeah, it was a disaster, and somehow the actual millions of dollars of investment money this has got wasn't even partially informed by its failure. Where are these moron investors coming from and how do I grift their money off them instead?
Yeah it seems so. SR2 was peak gang. Wheres the gangoons the reboot?
You are not alone OP
v hivemind losers missing out as always, saints row has always been fun
This game will be saved if there is an explicit sex scene with Kinzie.
Give me the fucking SR2 patch already faggot, not buying this lame reboot
Saints Row 3 had a gutted plot with haphazard storytelling. Kenzie is only remembered out of the new batch of characters given her appearance and autism
Look guys I liked SR2 the best as well, but we're on like the 3rd or 4th game in a row continuing the same zany lmaorandom trajectory. You gotta stop acting blindsided and betrayed everytime a new SR comes out and it's not a remake of 2.
i'm gonna be honest,this looks even worse than 3 and 4
at least those two games had the older beloved characters
kenzie is a writers waifu and comes off as a mary sue all the new saints were shit one note characters
The series needs a reboot, it couldn't escalate much more than it has. It doesn't need to be rebooted like this. The game is made with poor taste driving the design. It looks as unappealing as Watchdogs. Diversity quotas sanitize games and strip all provocative elements. I expect to think and act like this in the workplace but I'm not interested in content that is essentially made while walking on eggshells when I'm off the clock.
why couldn't we get the original concept of 4 instead
they censored Freckle Bitch into FB and did away with the parody of Wendy, it's going to be woke garbage
for me it was evolve something about that game just made me nauseous
I would genuinely be indifferent if not for the fact that it's leading to IdolNinja's SR2 patch to continue rotting away.
I was open minded about it, despite some obvious red flags, until I tried the character creator today.
The bias toward masculine looking faces and body proportions is so obvious, there is literally no good starting point for an attractive female.
And the graphics look worse than their last game Agents of Mayhem, despite it's cartoony art style.
I don't know what the fuck they're doing over there at Volition but I'm not buying this shit and actually hope this game flops.
I just realized freckle bitch is supposed to make fun of wendys. Thats very low effort and also unfunny, who cares
>somehow the actual millions of dollars of investment money this has got wasn't even partially informed by its failure.
Larry does not care whether or not something is good. Larry cares that something has the right politics. Watch Dogs 2 and Saints Row have the right politics. Larry is happy. We get to eat shit.
>SR2 patch won't be out till their new game releases
>Volition will in all likelyhood crash and burn if the game tanks
I'm not liking this....they better fucking deliver on that patch they promised almost 3 years ago, holy fuck.
>>Volition will in all likelyhood crash and burn if the game tanks
THQ Nordic owns them. Worst case Volition gets liquidated and THQ pushes the patch out as damage control.
Saints Row used to pioneer character creation, so this is sad to see. They couldn't do something as basic as separating ass, leg and shoulder sliders, instead opting for SR3's pyramid. The hair selections suck, we don't even have a basic long and straight or long and wavy style. Bringing back layered clothing from the early games is a positive, but rings hollow when everything is as baggy as fucking SR1 clothing even on a slim as fuck female. You can't even slut it up with the G-string anymore since none of the pants are low cut, what's the fucking point?
That's not even bringing up how there's no walk cycle selection. I want this game to be good and I wish Volition could knock it out of the park, but this character creator is one step forward and two steps back and that feels like it'll ring true for the whole game.
thats fine but I want a gangland story with some wacky shit happening in the ghetto like the first 2 not the wacky zany "HEY LOOK AT ME IM QUIRKY ARENT I FUNNY" stuff we've gotten with every game since 2 cause having the wacky everywhere cheapens it and makes it less funny and it seems in the last 10 years no one has learned if you balance serious and funny you'll get a better product. But atleast the creator is good
>Wished so hard
I don't know why, it's pretty obvious the game's gonna fail. There's no hype, no constant stream of gameplay trailers to drum up that hype, and most people either forgot it existed or stopped caring.
