South Park games can get away with being centered around larping because the main characters are still kids. It's a lot more embarrassing when these people are supposed to be hardened criminals (key word here is "supposed", I bet that's what Volition/Deep Silver thinks they are) with a very real death toll in the hundreds and are playing pretend killing.
The Larping DLC really captures what Saints Row has painfully become. Of course in a formally gangster gang series, the first thing you want to do is pretend to kill people with nerf guns. They would no doubt tell us this garbage just wasnt made for us.
I’ll not say anything that supports or goes against the reboot but I will say this, it wouldn’t have been created (along with many other things) if we left the Middle East after a certain event in 2011
If they really don't want to make a new Saint’s Row game, why not just sell the ip to someone who wants to make one while they go on and create the kind of games they want to make? Or maybe go work for a different company? This kind of thing makes me wish there was a law preventing companies from just sitting on an intellectual property forever without making anything out of it.
Thank you for explaining why I refunded this game after 45 minutes playtime. All I could say was I hated it. You've explained WHY you hate it. I applaud your sacrifice of time and sanity. Now get therapy.
Wish a new studio could be formed with mostly veteran devs from the first two Saints Row games to bring the series back to greatness. Wouldn't fly this day and age, though. Too many people involved in the industry think gaming is made up of the few thousand hypersensitive losers who make up 'gaming twitter.'
That kind of existed, there was United Front Studios which was made up of Volition, Black Box (Undeground 2, Most Wanted, Carbon), Rockstar Vancouver (Bully), and Radical (Simpsons Hit and Run and Scarface: The World Is Yours) employees and they made Sleeping Dogs, which was a damn good game. Unfortunately Square Enix is ran by loons who were upset the game didn't sell 50 million copies like GTA and thus we never got anything more out of them
@@FutureSlacker917 Sleeping Dogs is awesome, one of my favorite open world games. I liked United Front but I wasn't aware of the makeup of it. Thanks for telling me about that. Definitely a shame how freaking stupid SquareEnix is.
Not happening. The lead writer of SR2 & 3 works at Ubisoft these days. Previously he wrote Far Cry 5 and has now become the director of the entire IP. So he is not coming back.
Already knew the last DLC wasnt gonna help, LARPing isn't even a thing in this City and those out there and I've never seen it anywhere else in the past either so that adds in the lack of interest.
I dont even get why they doubled down on it but like a lot of shit in this reboot and dev team, all they do is double down on stuff nobody asked for, nobody cared for, and insisted we needed more, got cocky and crashed their company. Instead of cancelling it, they went for it anyway and who gives a shit about this childish bs they swear is just so funny. I hate this studio.
They could make SUCH a good comeback if they release a reboot titled "Saints Row: reboot: REBOOT" it would play into the satire comedy that saints row is known for, Fuck they could even make the reboot some shitty TV show that the new boss comments "What the fuck is this shit" and turns the TV off and DONE wiped CLEAN of this terrible game with a nod to the players that they're back to the satire, big dick energy over the top action that the OG saints are known for THEN boss pulls out a pistol and looks out a window fucking swarmed to the teeth with police and SWAT outside calling for surrender and boss calls for his backup and a fucking HELICOPTER swoops in and starts opening fire on the cops, then boss just badass hops out of the window onto a zip line attached to the helicopter and you start shooting up the siege, then a saint drops you a SAW from the helo and you fly through the city taking fire from the cops and you shooting back and THATS your fucking opening gameplay cinematic!!! YOU WANT STORY BUILDING?? OKAY the saints are a top dog criminal organization that owns the city, and a competing criminal organization named the Sinners with three leaders representing the three stages of death, which become three bosses of the city, have the president in their back pocket with their dirty secrets for blackmail, so the president controls the police in the city and forces them to crack down on the saints, GOES TO WAR with them in an all out city wide shootout to retake the city from the saints, the boss like a FUCKING G is just chilling with his pants off watching TV because he owns the fucking TOWN, finally decides to hop in the action, QEUE the no pants shootout from the zipline being pulled by the helicopter! Then after the boss survives the city wide war, the president goes on a united nations summit and declares the saints be defunded and categorized as TERRORISTS effectively resetting the saints to zero and forcing them to disband out of fear, and having the world authorities crack down on the saints back down to lowly stragglers prompting the boss to restart his once great saints sent into hiding on to the new city of Cambrea to rebuild and take down the three leaders of the sinners and ultimately confront the president who doesn't want his secret fetish for midget porn dressed as blue smurfs to be revealed!!!!
I MEAN JESUS how hard is it to tell a good over the top story!?!?!
I can. They wanted this soy game to be a Modern Saints Row game? And they called their loyal fans “Terrorists”? Yeah they made their death bed. It’s not surprising.
Another problem with the third expansion is that you are forced to grind and increase your empire level (level 3) to buy the castle that unlocks the required mission to start the dlc... Unfortunately this franchise with so much potential is dead, not even that Saints Row 2 patch looks like it will ever be released.
You stomped these awful excuses for DLC right in the mouth. I still can't believe they put way more effort into those stupid larping DLC missions than they did the entire main game. Somebody really needs to put DeadlySteph on a shorter leash so she can't put anymore input into these games. If it really is true that Deepsilver wants to try again with the SR IP asap(please God NO just let it rest!) then they're gonna need that crazy head as FAR AWAY from this project as possible.
what makes the secret cut scene funnier is that at least they choose a great songs for their endings from previous games (sr3,4) than Loveshack song. WHO THE FUCK SING LOVESHACK FOR THEIR KARAOKE!!!
The one simple Thing I wanted to slightlymore enjoy the Game, was Enemy Outfits for the Player. That's not even a Task, it's just copying them into the Players Wardrobe. The Voice Slider is so broken, it alters the Voice Pitch of the Murder Circus Characters.
[My idea for a new Saints Row] A new Saints Row should just start off from Saints Row The Third. Let Saints Row 4 and Gat Out Of Hell be nothing but a wild crazy dream the Boss had after watching a TV series about them and that whole story and have the Boss say, that he's done with the show and goes to the toilet to take a dump and a quick shower. Then he comes out and we see he's in the penthouse and a helicopter is landing on the helipad. The story could start off with some lieutenants jumping out the helicopter and telling the Boss since he was gone for so long, it seems like the new leadership of the Ronin has returned to Stillwater to avenge the lost family members, like it doesn't look like they'll try to take over Stilwater again, but just hunt down the Saints leadership and destroy their operations. The Boss would return and take care of this situation with their hacker team having found out the potential hideouts and then raid them all at ones with the most potential one getting raided by the Boss and big group of gang members with one of the lieutenants who came to him. They find the Ronin leader of the operation and take him out with the other Ronins and the Boss is disappointed how things have gone so dramatic all the sudden. Then that lieutenant he's with woukd tell him something like; "Yeah, who could've thought selling clothes, weird comics, bobble head figures, energy drinks and lunch boxes would make us look weak.". The Boss would reflect and say, that he already came to think about this a while ago after they beat the entire Syndicate and had Killbane tell him something similar. (The ending could've been the Boss deleting Killbane and Pierce and Oleg with a whole bunch of Saints rescuing Shaundi and the rest) They would decide to get rid of all that nonsense and become more serious again, because the Syndicate as powerful as they were had international allies who had to take big losses after it was all destroyed by the Saints. Cartels and other syndicate-like families would confront them and declare war on the Saints and begin to attack them in Steelport and Stilwater and the Saints would fight with everything they got and when that is over the Boss would decide to bring the war to them now. Then we would be introduced to a whole new big map where the other allies of the Steelport Syndicate are and to destroy the cartels we would have missions to defeat them in the main cities they're at and raid the place of the leaders. Now that wouldn't be no new maps, but just locations you'd only visit for the missions. The Saints would make a name for themselves again, be serious gang again, no nonsense anymore and the SR1 and SR2 flavor would return with some extra flavors on top of it to perfect it.
How the hell we went from... Saints Row 1-3: hoes, pimps, strippers, street thugs, drugs to... Reboot: soy boys, karens, college hipster, geeks, starbucks, lgbtq+
I loved the game. I love the story, location, the characters. I always pictured it as the world johnny gat asked God to rebuild. I do think that it lacked the love the old ones had, and I would hope that they used this game to experiment to see what we would want. Maybe even find a way to link the cutscene of johnny gat as a cop to the new series but it looks like that won't happen.
I can see the validity in everyone's complaints about this game. However, seeing as I got it for free as one of the psn monthly games, I'm kinda enjoying it 😅😅. It being free definitely allowed it to not be a complete let down. Definitely nothing like the originals..... but it's playable. Once I finish the trophies I'm still forsure getting rid of it
loved the first two games, 3rd had a great opening but past that didn't feel like the game at all and i never played it past that. rip, all good things must end.
Still havent played and probably wont pay anymore than $10 for all of it (just to platinum on PS) Thanks for the videos though your first video is fucking hilarious and is exactly how i feel about the series as a whole.
You know I fully understand why people dislike this game alot, but for me personally I don't hate it, I do like it, but I can agree about the story and the writing as well as the gameplay though I do like some aspects I love the customization and the soundtrack I'm glad they did added in cheats
At least Row IV had the common decency to not bullshit us. They had no plans and gave no shits but they sure as hell did it with a passion and charm. Was it a good Saints game? No, but it knew it wasn't. And they sure as hell had fun with Rows 3 and 4! This is just a sad attempt at fan service that tries to convince us that's it's any good.
Volition, just like Turtle Rock Studio, should be studied on how *not* manage an IP, marketing, and production of videogames. Think about it. They both made/help to make good games,got cocky and now think they are the biggest thing in the entire industry, while making objectively bad games.
"more tone deaf than Stevie Wonder hitting a high note wrong" is literally the worst analogy you could've used but go off King I'm still here for you .. should've said Beethoven tho bc... Ya know, he's a *deaf pianist* Swear y'all put Stevie in any joke and think it'll land😂 naw player
I’ll not say anything that supports or goes against the reboot but I will say this, it wouldn’t have been created (along with many other things) if we left the Middle East after a certain event in 2011
I can't imagine how depressing it must be working at Volition right now, all that work and development going into a product that was universally panned and a commercial stinker to boot. It's almost as bad as those chumps working at Blizzard on Overwatch 2, but at least Volition doesn't have to deal with a bunch sex scandals and workplace harassment every month.
Tbh as bad as it was i still dont despise it as much as cyberpunk. that game was soo bad that not only did it make me hate it and make me not want to care about any future title from the company but its also made me hate the cyberpunk genra. Like atleast saints row you can just forget about it i mean its not like anyone really had any hype for it but cyberpunk my god the fanboys just wouldnt shut up about it for 2 years before it even came out. Its one thing for a game to just be bad but when you have to listen to people going on and on about how good it is before they have even played it then it makes you hate it regardless of if it was any good or not.
This game reminds me of Mass Effect 4. The game itself is ok-ish, but the fact that it's the new chapter in a legendary series makes it so much worse. The writing in both games is mediocre at best, but in comparison to previous games, it's abysmal.
If they were smart they would have ran with a quasi apoc mad max game, with comedic elements. Idk why they thought saints row larping was the route. But ofc ppl want to pretend to pretend to pretend to pretend. Smdh
You know what? - I think Saints Row 2022 feels like Saints Row 5 rather than Saints Row 1 reboot - After incident of DeadlySteph, Volition and Deep Silver just shot their legs because her (At least Deep Silver still safe because Dead Island 2, but not for Volition) - This game still buggy on Epic Games, and than it will be release on Steam in 4 days 😂😂
th tombstone dates arn't accurate, the franchise only truely died with the Reboot's release, SR 4 and Gat Outta Hell arn't the most popular games in the series, but they didn't kill the fracnhise, if anything it only narrativly did by SR 4 having Earth be destroyed resulting in them having to either somehow reboot, continue the story in space or a simulation, or time travel. It's just the reboot that killed the franchise simply for being a reboot that betrayed everything people loved about the series, dare I say even Agents of Mayhem was more of a worthy successor, at least that felt like an alternate timeline with characters like KInzie, Pierce, Oleg, and Johnny Gat returning as Agents, and some minor characters mentioned in the backstory of the game.
I’m letting you guys know he definitely lied about the cheats there’s a lot you can utilize for the game he just doing the most for content. But yea overall no real updates on the game
Here is funny thing Killer Bean will be coasting 20$ Can increes to 40...But for such game? Damm!...devs across the gaming market needs to Wake up or they lost right of being:)
When the opening text crawl of Saints Row 3 has more actually funny humor than this entire game and its DLC expansions combined... That fucking karaoke 'ending'... Guantanamo bay used it once. All who heard it were begging to be waterboarded rather than ever hear it again, guards and inmates alike. It was designated 'inhuman overkill'.
If you don’t want to make a Saints Row game anymore then sell the rights. Any company can make a better Saints Row at this point. Give it to Insomniac. I believe they’d do great.. 😅
Furry jokes... I'll give it a Aggressive Peter Griffin Laugh. I mean if you got good hate joke, be clever and be funny with it. Yeah Saints Row 2 is the best of the series, and reboot seems it can't fix it self with dlcs and patches. I have a idea for a DLC if it was movie set, and the cast was force to act the classic cast, but almost like satire but not in crude way, but on the nose. Like the Boss have No-Lines in a few chapters, but the others got lines. And set take place the a semi recreation of Steelport.
The larping stuff in the game isn't too bad if you take it for the ridiculous crap it is. It made me smile a couple of times purely at the stupidity of it.
For some reason the gravestone says 2006-2011 which would mean you included the third and that game is just as terrible as the rest. It should read 2006-2008. Simple as that, anyone that includes the third or beyond has terrible taste
Well the reason why is because Saints Row The Third was the last "Traditional" Saints Row Game before all the goofier shit like Sci-fi aliens and hell. The games personally for me was okay at best, but nothing henious like the later games. You can say i have bad taste if you want but SR3 to me is just fine.
Playstation made me play this game. I'm kinda picky "gamer" and I have such a hard time understanding why everyone is slaughtering Saints Row reboot? Sure, it ain't a perfect game and to my knowledge the lunch and months after the release has been a nightmare. But fucking come on? I started with first Saint Row's game and sure, the 4th game was a joke and such.. But Saints Row reboot ain't so fucking bad? It lacks content after completion and sure it's grindy but the ventures? Only one I hated was Kakts? Where fights and setting up jammers sucked major ballsack. But it's a fun game and sure, cringy moments and such.. But y'all taking this game too serious? I've actually had a great and fun time playing it, audio is kinda meeh, not balanced correct and some crashes has occured and some moments also has been hard and annyoing but fucking come on? It ain't such a fucking bad game as you all making say.. Don't take the game fucking serious, like Saints Row never really been, look at it more like an parody comedy version of GTA...
Alright to briefly explain why a lot of old fans hate the reboot. It kinda goes against everything a reboot for a Saints Row game would even be logistically. OG Saints Row meaning 1 and 2 we're gang simulators through and through and sure it had some goofy shit in them but it never effected the games storylines. What we got with those games (especially with the second one being so good) is what people would expect from a reboot. The Reboot was essentially the polar opposite with a weak cast, weaker story, weaker everything... it's just feels half-assed compared to the rest of the games in the series. It's like the recent live action disney reboots that took the original material that was great and made it worse for no reason. it lacks soul.
Hay developer here! Please let this game die in peace. I spent most of the development of this game playing with my piddle stick. Might have contributed to it being so bad

This is a result of having the wrong people in house, and trying to appeal to an audience who doesnt even play video games.
Yeah, game journalists. The only people they wanted this game to appeal to while their actual fanbase got another middle finger. Especially after AOM.
Volition only needed one thing to save their franchise, is to *Listen to your Fans.*
It’s not our fault, it’s theirs.

Make another Red Faction Guerilla. The remastered did well i heard. I still play it.
I prefer RFG over any SR tbh
"more tone deaf than Stevie Wonder hitting a high note wrong" is literally the worst analogy you could've used but go off King I'm still here for you .. should've said Beethoven tho bc... Ya know, he's a *deaf pianist*
Swear y'all put Stevie in any joke and think it'll land😂 naw player
Ngl it sounded far better in my head due to it being doubly stupid. 😬
@@SLEEPGANG aye man you had the concept, you had a punchline... Just make em match 😭
I’ll not say anything that supports or goes against the reboot but I will say this, it wouldn’t have been created (along with many other things) if we left the Middle East after a certain event in 2011
19:00 are you peaking or is my headset dying
edit: my bad, I did comment on it previously
nah it's me.
Yeah but.... *The love shack is a little old place where, We can get together~*
*Love shack baby~*
I can't imagine how depressing it must be working at Volition right now, all that work and development going into a product that was universally panned and a commercial stinker to boot. It's almost as bad as those chumps working at Blizzard on Overwatch 2, but at least Volition doesn't have to deal with a bunch sex scandals and workplace harassment every month.
Saints row reboot fits the perfect definition of " this game was made by nerds"
It sounds like volition wants to make a fantasy game or something along the lines of it. Go ahead, that’s where this stuff should be anyway
Tbh as bad as it was i still dont despise it as much as cyberpunk. that game was soo bad that not only did it make me hate it and make me not want to care about any future title from the company but its also made me hate the cyberpunk genra.
Like atleast saints row you can just forget about it i mean its not like anyone really had any hype for it but cyberpunk my god the fanboys just wouldnt shut up about it for 2 years before it even came out.
Its one thing for a game to just be bad but when you have to listen to people going on and on about how good it is before they have even played it then it makes you hate it regardless of if it was any good or not.
i'd consider giving cyperpunk 2077 a second chance when phantom liberty drops... from what I hear it's gonna be a complete overhaul of the game...
This game reminds me of Mass Effect 4. The game itself is ok-ish, but the fact that it's the new chapter in a legendary series makes it so much worse. The writing in both games is mediocre at best, but in comparison to previous games, it's abysmal.
RIP to volition
Saints row didn't die in 2012 people bitch about everything they don't agree with. Yea it did died in 2022 tho
Quick silver is the blame for that recent shit saints game which is why V went to gearbox
If they were smart they would have ran with a quasi apoc mad max game, with comedic elements. Idk why they thought saints row larping was the route. But ofc ppl want to pretend to pretend to pretend to pretend. Smdh
As a indie game dev working on my own project and a gamer I am happy I never played this garbage reboot
You know what?
- I think Saints Row 2022 feels like Saints Row 5 rather than Saints Row 1 reboot
- After incident of DeadlySteph, Volition and Deep Silver just shot their legs because her (At least Deep Silver still safe because Dead Island 2, but not for Volition)
- This game still buggy on Epic Games, and than it will be release on Steam in 4 days 😂😂
th tombstone dates arn't accurate, the franchise only truely died with the Reboot's release, SR 4 and Gat Outta Hell arn't the most popular games in the series, but they didn't kill the fracnhise, if anything it only narrativly did by SR 4 having Earth be destroyed resulting in them having to either somehow reboot, continue the story in space or a simulation, or time travel. It's just the reboot that killed the franchise simply for being a reboot that betrayed everything people loved about the series, dare I say even Agents of Mayhem was more of a worthy successor, at least that felt like an alternate timeline with characters like KInzie, Pierce, Oleg, and Johnny Gat returning as Agents, and some minor characters mentioned in the backstory of the game.
I’m letting you guys know he definitely lied about the cheats there’s a lot you can utilize for the game he just doing the most for content. But yea overall no real updates on the game
Here is funny thing
Killer Bean will be coasting 20$
Can increes to 40...But for such game?
Damm!...devs across the gaming market needs to Wake up or they lost right of being:)
i plan to play this as a spoof game on current day politics. i wanted to make an older 'virginia slim 120' milf type woman that leads these 'youngins'
When the opening text crawl of Saints Row 3 has more actually funny humor than this entire game and its DLC expansions combined...
That fucking karaoke 'ending'...
Guantanamo bay used it once.
All who heard it were begging to be waterboarded rather than ever hear it again, guards and inmates alike.
It was designated 'inhuman overkill'.
I feel like you're mic is peaking? like I can hear some distortion
edit: but the volume is still low? even with the distortion
I honestly only bought this trash so that i can complete all the saints row games
I was expecting Saints row3 dlc
If you don’t want to make a Saints Row game anymore then sell the rights. Any company can make a better Saints Row at this point. Give it to Insomniac. I believe they’d do great.. 😅
This killed saints row. I loved the series but never bought or played this one. Saints row was far more funnier than gta
it's the sims if it where gta.
Sauce for that chin li pic GODDAMN
Saints row 2, the only good game. Screw the original saints row 1.
Furry jokes...
I'll give it a Aggressive Peter Griffin Laugh.
I mean if you got good hate joke, be clever and be funny with it.
Yeah Saints Row 2 is the best of the series, and reboot seems it can't fix it self with dlcs and patches.
I have a idea for a DLC if it was movie set, and the cast was force to act the classic cast,
but almost like satire but not in crude way, but on the nose.
Like the Boss have No-Lines in a few chapters, but the others got lines.
And set take place the a semi recreation of Steelport.

Or you could say: "fuck this shit" and play Saints Row 2.
Definetly that too...
It pisses me off that I gave this awful game a chance. Dont pay $59.99 for a joke
The larping stuff in the game isn't too bad if you take it for the ridiculous crap it is. It made me smile a couple of times purely at the stupidity of it.
This new saints row is so bad like bru I played a few hours and uninstalled
For some reason the gravestone says 2006-2011 which would mean you included the third and that game is just as terrible as the rest. It should read 2006-2008. Simple as that, anyone that includes the third or beyond has terrible taste
Well the reason why is because Saints Row The Third was the last "Traditional" Saints Row Game before all the goofier shit like Sci-fi aliens and hell. The games personally for me was okay at best, but nothing henious like the later games. You can say i have bad taste if you want but SR3 to me is just fine.
@@SLEEPGANG nah bro, the third was literally just the tombstone. The rest were the grave and the casket lol
Saints row 2 was the last good game of rhe franchise
rest in peace ...saints...being woke got ya killed... you won't be missed...
Lol modern day gaming at it’s finest 😂
So a tiny tina rip off?
Oh? 🤔
REAL
All we need for the next Saints row game is to be more like 3 the best Saints row gqme
Volition sucks.
Playstation made me play this game.
I'm kinda picky "gamer" and I have such a hard time understanding why everyone is slaughtering Saints Row reboot?
Sure, it ain't a perfect game and to my knowledge the lunch and months after the release has been a nightmare.
But fucking come on?
I started with first Saint Row's game and sure, the 4th game was a joke and such..
But Saints Row reboot ain't so fucking bad? It lacks content after completion and sure it's grindy but the ventures? Only one I hated was Kakts? Where fights and setting up jammers sucked major ballsack.
But it's a fun game and sure, cringy moments and such.. But y'all taking this game too serious? I've actually had a great and fun time playing it, audio is kinda meeh, not balanced correct and some crashes has occured and some moments also has been hard and annyoing but fucking come on? It ain't such a fucking bad game as you all making say..
Don't take the game fucking serious, like Saints Row never really been, look at it more like an parody comedy version of GTA...
Alright to briefly explain why a lot of old fans hate the reboot. It kinda goes against everything a reboot for a Saints Row game would even be logistically. OG Saints Row meaning 1 and 2 we're gang simulators through and through and sure it had some goofy shit in them but it never effected the games storylines. What we got with those games (especially with the second one being so good) is what people would expect from a reboot. The Reboot was essentially the polar opposite with a weak cast, weaker story, weaker everything... it's just feels half-assed compared to the rest of the games in the series. It's like the recent live action disney reboots that took the original material that was great and made it worse for no reason. it lacks soul.
Hay developer here! Please let this game die in peace. I spent most of the development of this game playing with my piddle stick. Might have contributed to it being so bad
