They should have NEVER used the Saints Row name, if they wanted to do their own thing. Because Saints Row already has a fanbase -- and with a fanbase comes certain expectations. What they tried to do was twist and mutated Saints Row into something else, but you cannot do that because the fanbase has their vision of the series, and it needs to be in alignment. So all they got was enemies and rejection, and that's what happened for the Reboot Announcement Trailer.

Volition and Deep silver don’t respect the first 2 games because most of the people working for them currently didn’t work on them. This reboot should’ve been a semi realistic action game (with comedic moments) about a group of broke inner city youths starting a gang to take the city back from the current gangs terrorizing the city. Instead we get crap like SR3-SR22. SR3 started the goofy tone, the stripped down city, activities from old games being used as missions, Inconsistent characters that don’t feel like gang members, etc. Every game since has progressively gotten away from what made this series, and now it’s unrecognizable.

I get it there's fun to be had sure and down the line the game will be polished and expansions will be added and there are positives; but sometimes it feels that the game gets blind toxic positivity by the minority that think this is the best SR game. If people don't react now with you giving out your honest opinion then Volition might keep up this up. Saints Row is in real trouble now.

As a child SR3 was fun to be had but they really squeezed the charm outta the game by trying to force it down your throat, SR2/SR never pushed a “be wacky” play style the main story was pretty straight up & to the point gangster theme, but the side activities which really weren’t optional were & that’s what made the game so great

I thought the same thing! The main characters are people the previous games would have trashed on!

Honestly, im happy you were honest with this game. As a saints row fan, this broke me and so many other fans who were hoping to be proven wrong but sadly, we were right. This game is an atrocious abomination of a saints row game. In my opinion, i don't trust volition... AT ALL. We have given them plenty of opportunities to better themselves and they kept f"ing it up. Its so hard to be a saints row fan when this what the developers are putting out. And don't even get me started on the horrid twitter drama, cgi drama and the discord drama we got from them. And now they are even attacking the fans again for even voicing their criticisms again. In my opinion, id want volition to sell the saints row ip to a studio like Hanger 13 or remedy, heck, even rocksteady for that matter. Even if saints row is gone ( god i hope that doesnt happen) , I'll still be here to watch your guy's content. Once a saint always a saint. Thank you godzilla for this amazing video. You're a true 3rd street saint. Edit: I am so loving your new thumbnail.

Like what you mentioned in response to the first trailer, that sadly might be apparent "There is a lot of angry people and if this game doesn't sell well this might be it for the company."

Welp. It's official. Saints Row, as a franchise, is dead. It's honestly pretty sad.

@@theobell2002 Gat out of Hell had an ending that teased an alternate universe where I thought this reboot was going to be. When I found out it wasn't, I was disappointed. My last hope was for this reboot to be great. At least that way, it would've ended on a positive note if this was the last game in the franchise. But sadly, that isn't the case considering how negatively received this game was. Which usually means no more Saints Row games in the future. RIP Saints Row.

Was not expecting that ending. That was the cherry on top of this great review.

I think that score is fair. I expected lower tbh. Truly is heartbreaking to see a beloved series treated this way.

It sucks and the 4th game wasn't a perfect successor to the trilogy with some choices I don't agree with but at least the source material wasn't bastardized like this game or Dead Rising, still sucks tho.

The combined emotes are some of the greatest things I've seen in a while.

Very good review Mr Saints! I'm a bit surprised you didn't mention the music stations though. Also small question do you know where to find striped clothes? I've met many pedestrians wearing some but never found any store with any of those...

that ending cinematic was legendarily funny, thank you 🙏

bro, i'm so sorry. i've been following you for years now and when they announced this game, i wasn't excited for me, i was excited for YOU. and seeing what they did to the franchise? and how their biggest fan got so let down? it's just pissed me off so much. i hope they can learn from this. their most dedicated fans like yourself deserve another good SR game.

So the "haters" were right. Of course. Now Volition should go back and make Saints Row 5 with the original cast. Or maybe just stop making games.

The series has been dead for years, this game's quality, or the lack of it, doesn't mean a thing for the original fans. Even though they gave us some pretty good games in the past, it's time for Volition to be shut down. They choose this path years ago and now they will pay the price. Know your audience. Twitter fad followers won't buy your game.

Hey MSG, I don't see a way to reach you so leaving this here, but I had a vid suggestion if you haven't talked about it yet. The Saints Row 2 talkshow cutscene that plays if you idle in the main menu. Such a brilliant way to setup what Stilwater has become since the yacht incident.

6:37 I hate that you can't customize the takedowns. It should be an obvious setting, especially because there is such a variety of takedown animations. I almost always get the same few goofy takedowns and it's getting on my nerves because they just don't fit my character

You always deliver man. Fair and professional take. I'd give it a solid 5. I wrote up all my gripes in a bulletin because they started getting out of hand. There's much cringe to be had, but my issues lie mostly with the gameplay. Things big and small are missing, dumbed down, or just plain illogical. A minor complaint that claims the dev laziness is how some of these weapons function. You take a pickaxe, skin it with an overgrown Highlander sword, and you *_grip and swing it by the freakin blade._* The Saintsblade is even worse. You swing it flat and there's massive hand clipping. Don't add stuff if you're not gonna do it logically! Oh, and no 80's pop station... The synthwave is nice, but where's all my singalongs?! But I'll say there's some fun to be had. Honestly the car customization this time around is the strongest in the series by far. Music is hit or miss, but generally enjoyable. Character customization on the surface is depthful, but weighed down by mostly bland clothing selection. The side hustles are... far more entertaining and engaging than the firefights and chases that almost solely structure the story missions. I'm making this too long, but overall I think I'm on the same page as you. I'm glad the leading authority on the series is telling it like it is. Hopefully this dev roadmap ::cough::CYBERPUNK::cough:: can make the game a bit more sellable. Edit: WAY too much grind. Seriously. So much fun that simply came your way during the previous games has to be unlocked from completing laser-focused challenges, scouring the map, or purchased for insane amounts of money (at least until you have strong ventures.)

This summed up my thoughts pretty much exactly. Also, can we expect a video detailing all the easter eggs ? (at least the one's found right now)

The sighs, I felt that in my soul. As a honest fan. From 1 to AoM... I just pulled what I needed for fan writing.... then I just go back to write.

Saints row was the first game I ever remember playing I grew up with it and this is just sad this all could have been avoided if they just listened to fans or “haters”

For a not scripted video this came out pretty well and that endings was well done.

My first experience with SR was IV, and recently I decided on whether or not my first true experience with SR was this or SR3 remastered (I played on PS5 and had the lowest PS Plus tier, so I couldn’t play SR2), and after a few days I decided to get The Third. I’m glad I spent that money on a good game

from what i heard in skill up's video volition didnt introduce the main characters properly too theyre just there with you from the start trying to make you care about them but you the player dont know them the boss does

The outro is sad but damn true RIP Volition

i’ve been waiting for your review. glad to see you’re honest and open about how you truly feel about the game - unlike certain people in the fandom. 👀 it’s unfortunate to see where the series has gone, but i’m the least bit surprised. SR2 is peak and always will be. great video as always, and i honestly can’t wait until that NDA lifts… 👀

No replayable missions & NO CHEATS is what will keep me away from this game.

This reboot made me appreciate Saints Row 3 a lot more.

Weird how you can’t rob stores, but the first type of gang activity you commit in the story is…armed robbery.

The reason I'm pissed off is because Volition used to listen to the fans and put care into their games. Even Saints Row 3. They did listen to what they thought the fans wanted. And I bet if thq didn't rush another game out the door (saints row 4) then we could've got the best Saints row game ever. But 10 years later, we get this. A reboot that was made by a different team from what I can tell. Where's the care?

They never actually listened to their fans. Thy just didn't reject them as much asthey do noe. The only people they listen to are game journalists who don't like the game being M-rated, wanted everything they complained about SRTT doing, and revised it for their sentiments, then the game sucks and even they don't like it. Let alone getting a director who thought his ideas were better than the older game's set up, and didnt care about what fans say.

Good to know, maybe I'll get there some time.

SR 1 and SR 2 were made by those who were trying to make a good criminal game with great skill in game development. SR 3, 4, and Gat out of hell were made by those who barely played SR 1 and 2 or just watched some marketing trailers and gameplay cutscenes but still have some skill in making game development. Saints Row 2022 was made by those who knew the Saints were purple.

Ya imagine being in like a los Vegas rip off city and not able to go in a single casino or bar

All you had to do was follow the damn sr2 & 3 Volition.... (In my big smoke voice)

I feel like the only way this can be redeemed is a sequel that's first trailer opens with the original Saints killing these characters off accidentally during the course of a mission they're on. Wipe this slate clean and make a statement that they realised how bad of a misstep this truly was...

The tragic downpour of Volition.

Was so looking forward to this video. I had more excitment for this video then i did for this game. What a sad day to be a saint today.

hearing that there wasn't any planes made my chest sunk since i always loved flying that warthog looking plane called the AB Destroyer back in SR3 even tho the render distance was shit on 360 but just enjoyed flying it above buildings and trees shooting random rockets down a street...

Julius is probably rolling in his grave after learning how much more degenerate the Saints have become.

10:34 you also forget to mention , that because you can access the clothing through your phone and its the only way you can customize it, this makes the interiors for the stores as well the stores to lose its sense of purpose in the world as soon as you buy everything. It really hurts the immersion of santo ileso and makes the clothing stores feel useless. In my honest opinion, i feel like there should be a downgrade in this customization through the phone feature to only be used for your body customization and not for your clothing. Let the wardrobe and the clothing stores be the only places where you can customize the clothing pieces.
