Exactly, the original Saints Row let us get to know the Playa organically over the game as well as the rest of the 3rd Street Saints. As the Playa became the Boss and the games became wackier the characters still had their charm. In the reboot it was like the devs we're trying to force people to like the new characters for the most shallow of reasons. You can't fix bad writing with patches.

This is how you can tell who did and didn't play the game. The student loan thing is a single throw away line made by a side character and its never brought up again. Its not the entire premise of the game. The premise is everyone initially belonging to one of the major gangs until they all get tossed aside, so they then make their own gang empire. The story isn't good and the game has so many issues. There is no point in lying about what makes the game mediocre.

Same, but this reboot should never have happened which is the sad part. Why the heck did anyone allow this to happen? Everything done in the past thrown out the window, replaced by ''insert me'' characters rather than good and believable characters. In the past we had people with different personalities and they sounded like people that were actually part of the gang life and also looked believable. It made the original saints row interesting, it makes you invested into the story. These characters look and sound like someone that would shit their pants and run away if a gang member threatened them.

SR2 was just the right balance of quirky, weird, funny, seriousness, intensity, and heartbreak... Aisha's funeral w/ Gat, and Carlos's death, are two scenes burned into my brain...

It wasn't Volition who gave the finger, it was Deep Silver. Volition wanted yo go back to the roots with the last game, it was the publisher who wanted them to make a game for angry teenagers instead of the hardcore fans. Volition developers were rolling their eyes the whole developing time because of publishers demands and constant changes. They had to retstart the concept numerous times because they couldn't nail neither understand which Deep Silver was forcing upon them. Don't blame Volition.

I was dying out of laughter when the screen went black and all of a sudden the message "Gaming industry is doomed" appeared with the happy music.

I never played SR1, starting from 2. And what i liked about it was how you could attack any faction anytime. It didnt feel set up, like a difficulty rank. "You beat the Morning Star, now heres the Luchadores". SR2 each faction had to hold up on its own in their own ways, rather than just simply being more intense than the last gang you fought. You actually felt like you were dealikg with 3 other gangs.

Nah I don't buy it@@TwinSticksReviews it could easily be a higher up trying to cover their asses. Deep Silver is behind Metro Exodus, Corvus and Dead Island 2, all games with dark themes and in case of DI2, dark comedy that isn't afraid to go places, despite being set in LA and having a similar tone. I get that there were a lot of rewrites, but the writers wrote these jokes and thought they were funny, even if the characters are flat, it shouldn't stop them from being funny. Uncharted 1 is a good example of a light hearted tone done right. Blaming it all on Deep Silver seems like the easy route out.

I downloaded it on PS plus. Played for 1 hour then deleted it.

You know a game is bad when the entire studio is killed because of it. But they really should've just worked more on the engine and do a remake of SR1 than anthing. Would've saved them money AND generate more income. But they were too stubborn and it cost them all of their jobs.

The true final nail was their attacking fans online and basically shooting any remaining good will they had in the face instead of just saying ' we realise this game wasnt what fans wanted and we apologise for this. We are taking criticisms to heart and swear to truly bring back the spirit of the saints in our next game' They didn't even need to do that.they just needed to not attack people they didnt like. Just do minor damage control, silently take what sales they got, and go from there. Do i support damage control nonsense? Nope. But that seems like the best option from their viewpoint.

I think Saints Row should go back to basics, I'm tired of the over goofy nonsense. I want them to focus on creating the gang itself, creating patrols etc would be amazing.

This is what happens when you tell your fans to F off, make 18+ games for kids and completely ignore what made the original games so popular.

Saints row 2 is elite, how did this happen?

What do you play Saints Row 2 on? It looks like it's at 60 so I assumed PC, but when I looked at Steam there are a number of reviews talking about how bad the port is and that it has trouble even opening at times or frequent crashes. Only started the series at 3, and have been interested in trying it.

14:30 seriously what's with that? It's happened to me multiple times, usually whenever I'm having a heavy gunfight and there's a tank involved

Recently finished playing saints row reboot here, most of the issues after the patches are still present, one of the main issues I've had is the game either removing any attachments I have on my weapons everytime I launch the game or the game would go out of sync and cause the radio to get so low that I mainly have to either mess around with the audio or the volume on my TV and it frustrated the hell out of me so I have the same problem, another problem I've had was during the dlc heist where you had to take a photo of Chris hardy without getting caught, I encountered a glitch where I could not for the life of me take a photo of him because the game doesn't register or let me continue through the mission, i looked everywhere online and I couldn't find any solutions for it that is until I found out I had to not only use the in game phone to zoom the camera but also zoom the game camera itself on the settings.

The audio settings are kinda weird. There's an option to prioritize dialogue over everything else and I think that's what ruins the game but I haven't figured out how to tweak those settings to make it better. I got it for free with epic and so far it's been kinda fun, the aiming is certainly weird and not as fluid but I liked the skills. The ragdolls and bugged explosions make it chaotic, maybe by accident, but it just works lol.

I got it free on Epic and honestly I'm loving it. Sad to imagine how much better this would have been received if it wasn't so buggy. I definitely have some annoying bugs I force myself to overlook but generally I do love this game. Definitely need to go into audio settings and set most things down to like 40% and keep engines to 100% to even get it to sound reasonable. Its so weird. Luckily I never got that weird audio glitch garbled noise you did.

Check the audio output rate in your windows sound settings. Some games freak out at anything other than like 44100hz or 48000hz

It was given away on Epic recently and I still feel like it’s not worth the SSD space. Good video though 💪

that bug with the car audio or radio dropping out was present in saints row the third remastered too

Storywise: Rather than starting the Saints. They should of have the characters already part of the Saints and under a liutentant. Your character is not taking over but just getting by with their friends.

Wow their offices were very close to where I live, never knew.

So much about the story in this one felt half baked that I can truly believe that the scenario writers were being rushed to the finish line. I always felt that the reveal of who shot and buried the boss at the beginning of the game was likely intended to be based on which lieutenant had the least loyalty to the boss. That might also account for why the final boss fight felt so bland and lacking in character as (had that idea been implemented) they would have had to slot in the least loyal member of your crew. There is a huge chunk of the game in the latter half that feels like missions designed to cement the loyalty of your fellow gang members had that system been in place. Rushed just about describes everything about this game. My secret hope is that some of the main decision makers behind Saints Row 2 get together and create a spiritual successor ala Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. After the abysmal performance of the reboot I doubt we are going to be getting anymore Saints Row any time soon(if at all).

Twin Sticks, I have AUDIO Issues aswell, but mines, everything Is low, Instead of Cutscenes, It's super bad

One thing that I have not had issues with the audio, the mix is quiet in some places but that is about it.

You know, taking out the issues with the story concept, pacing, characters, tone, etc, there is still a massive thing that just makes the gameplay feel hollow. The game doesn't let the player fail those "badass" moments. You don't have to be good at the driving to drift well, you can let go of the throttle and hold a drift indefinitely while the game will auto hold the throttle. You can't fail a stunt jump, because even hitting one at 10mph will see your car hit top speed out of nowhere mid-air to fly 150+ feet over obstacles. The "theme park" comment is completely accurate. The player character is just a person at a theme park, and you know you can't let guests at your park think they are "bad" at your attractions...

This game would be at least playable if the AI wasnt build on technology from 1950

The car radios sound like your listening to them from outside of the car

Unfortunately patches can't fix badly designed missions and the awful story.

Yall know that has lyric on “down bad” im pretty sure rockstars repeats that one verse when it came to saints row and them dropping gta 6 trailer

I don't think the premise is even bad, I think you can make a saints row game about anybody as long as it's funny, crass (they dont need to be offensive if theyre worried about that), and needs cool and fun or interesting characters (I'm only an hour or 2 into the game cause I'm still finishing up saints row 3 remastered) and I think it's like a pretty decent so far all things considered but it's so far removed from what's great about the originals. Just make the story dumb and fun and I'd be all on board.

I don’t know if these problems are only on console but I played through the game a couple months ago on pc and didn’t have/notice any of these bugs he talks about. I thought the game was good but the story tone and character writing was very poor.

The aim acceleration is the same on PC. Its why I stepped away from the game personally. I hoped since aiming was a big part of the game it wouldve felt much better but none of the settings I changed really had any effect. I tried reinstalling recently to give another go and it wouldnt even recognize my controller. I opened another game on the same launcher and it worked fine. I feel the initial launch/state of the game just showed how much "care and thought" went in to this title. It was another franchise that fans wanted more of but it was a DOA cash grab at best. The DLC didnt add much either. One was a couple hour expansion, meh. Another, you dont even use the character you created to play the game with. It all feels like shots in the dark from people who doesnt care for the franchise.

I had a bug that made the characters at the final cut scene vanish. You just see the mics moving 😂😂.... PSN has it for free so I e wasn't mad but it I would have paid for it smh

It’s all beautiful to see, especially at night. The Padilla bridge standing out with its huge loop structure around it. There’s even a bridge that goes under water, funded by Marshall. The Santo Illeso sign that shines in the distance. It’s a lot. Twin Sticks explains it best at 15:51 and 18:07, it’s like an amusement park that you can walk around in but, you can’t ride any of the rides. If only the population density were higher, wildlife roaming around, more accessible buildings to go in and out of, engaging in activities around these structures, like go kart racing and golfing, and being able to rob the train in free roam like we could in Red Dead Redemption, these things would’ve made this map one of the best and most fleshed out maps ever. Unfortunately, it just sucks that the cons of this game out weighed the pros so much that it doesn’t get talked about much. Even I quit playing this game for a while, I decided to give it another go focusing on the positives of this game, and my admiration for the map is what got me back into it. There’s not much to do in it, but it’s it still beautiful to look at.

The map felt and looked very bland & uninspired to me

Switch audio to TV or headphones , that will keep it balanced

According to some reports, it was Deep Silver who wanted the more young adult humor and tone. Also, since Deep Silver is a European company, they asked Volition to avoid using "gangs" as the protagonists due to Europe not liking to glorify gang culture, so the Saints are treated more as violent entrepeneurs rather than gangmembers. They also were responsible for PR, meaning it was Deep Silver that pushed back against the game's critics, not Volition's programmers.

I really want to know what the guy (director?) who, in the boardroom pitching this game, said everything about it, and finished with "this is what saints row is, let's make -this", thinks about it all now that it's over. does he think he was onto something? has he realised that he was WAY off and didnt understand what makes saints row, saints row? i'd love to know what's said behind closed doors.

The majority of these glitches and bugs were already there in the previous iteration of this engine. They could have switched to a different engine, especially since working with Unreal 4 is easier than working with others.

I mean you got to give it to them, the baking guy pronounces macaron in perfect french.

I finished the main Campain on the hardest difficulty just 10 minutes ago and I had a good time. It's fun to shoot the enemies and exploring the world. I actually find the story ironically funny. So... I had a good time for free.

SR2 was one of my favourite games as a kid and I love the original SR but right when SR3 dropped I was instantly heart broken even tho the starting was soo cool. I havent played a SR game since.
