[@nexustrition1264]

As a fan who went through stages of Grief with this game as I so desperately tried to defend this game during it's Marketing and shaky release. This was probably one of the worst ways a Franchise could die. Had 2 previous titles that while yes were fun divided the Community and then this game where not even Critics and Casual Fans can enjoy. And Volition completely destroyed almost all bonds they grew with their Community over the years. We talk about how SR needs to get Rebooted again. But let's be real with ourselves here. Even if Volition wasn't involved. How many of us or the Gaming Community as a whole would actually be interested and hoping the best for that? The Community has been burned enough and I just do not see any possible big comeback for this franchise. (Unless that Movie about SR turns out to be good lol)

[@mr.voidout4739]

Like I don't wanna sound like a kook, but this franchise was flat-out inherited by a team of wokesters that only want to capitalize on Fortnite players. The rest of it is to spite the bygone generation of toxic players that portrayed and embraced urban culture with classical depictions of nefarious gang-banging. Or something along those lines. You probably get the point. Well played. Makes a fan like me sound like a crazy bigot, but why else are we in this shithole?

[@InternetMouse]

Welvome to The club mate

[@nexustrition1264]

It's one thing to release at best mediocre game. But when you alienate your most loyal and die-hard fans with the things they say on Twitter and for the Loud crowd that likes the Reboot act like any sort of Critism levied at this game is just "Hate" and "You should play the game first." There’s toxicity, and there's positive toxicity. That's most of the Reboot Fans mindset. There's nothing wrong with liking the Reboot. If we can accept fans that say Saints Row 3 or 4 is their favorite. Then we should allow for fans to enjoy the Reboot. But don't act like the game is some Underrated Gem when it's not.

[@cameronb7161]

At this point, all we can hope for is just a Saint Row 2 remaster so that the reboot isn't the game this once great series dies on.

[@nexustrition1264]

@cameronb7161 Realistically. This franchise isn't gonna be touched with even a 36 Inch Yard stick anytime soon. Deep Sliver and The Embracer are gonna look at how the Reboot did and decide not to use resources and money for a Remaster or Remake of Saints Row 2 or 1.

@jbiehlablemafia fan base has been strong lol, they are making a 4th and in talks to green light 5, the remake was outstanding.

[@VideoGameFools]

@jbiehlable Hey, maybe it’s not for everyone but the remake wasn’t supposed to be an open world game, that was just a side mode, it is definitely regarded as one of the best remakes ever for most. Mafia 4 is well into development, you can look it up if you wish. (5 is in talks already) That series has been bigger than Saints Row since well before the reboot, (Mafia 3 was one of 2K’s best selling games of all time) since SR IV came out they left SR to fester. Mafia is nowhere near like GTA popularity, but what crime game is?

This officially put the nail in the coffin, I really wanted to enjoy this game but I can’t. It’s no longer about gangs it’s now about college kids who so happened to get rich by random chance. Either it needs to be rebooted AGAIN or if there’s ever a sequel it’ll be more serious but that’s nothing more than a pipe dream. The ride was fun while it lasted.

[@GeteMachine]

Much worse is that the characters dont remotely take themselves seriously enough, don't act like gangsters in any way, and literally get a villain to turn on them over how lame they are. They didnt even want their logo to be a Fluer, they wanted it to be a waffle shaped like a cat. They still play boardgames, get happy meal toys, think being shirtless is hilarious. Their so-called Boss is a moron who starts a gang because they were fired for being an idiot, and then gets their ass kicked over and over by guy, only to ever win a fight by just some looneytunes way of killing them. The reboot has no redeeming qualities for what they came up with. The worst writing yet for this IP.

As a Saints Row DLC, the theme's not off.
