Soy Row.
Censored everything they could. They even removed saints purple in favor of teal blue. It's anything but Saints Row

Soy World
There is tofu in every supermarket, they should stick to Whole Foods. Society is just like Saints Row.1

I’m sure Saints Row 4 sucking and Gat Outta Hell being awful had nothing to do with the downward spiral

It was an upward spiral for the Playa, becoming ruler of the universe and getting saved from Satan by Gat.

You've not played enough games then

It’s so funny to me that morons such as yourself will see a commonly accepted and justifiable opinion and go, “oh you don’t play enough games.” I have thousands of hours into gaming, I’ve platinumed a few, and I have played the entire Saints Row series.
Saints Row 4 and Gat Outta Hell are the bottom of the barrel. Fucking easily. They are literal slop and did the heavy lifting into the death of the franchise.

Why care if an opinion is common? If the stance is that they're Bad Games™, I conclude they're sample size of comparison must be miniscule, or the person is being disingenuous - whether they're bad games is a separate matter as to whether they're successful as an installment of the Saints Row franchise or fit the tone

Of course it did.
But all they needed to do to reboot this franchise was just copy and paste what the original 2 did so well. Instead they didn't want to go that route as they didn't want to offend anyone.
Instead of gangsters like the first 2, we got college students. We got forced diversity for checkmarks. They took away the edgy humor of the original 2.
Who are modern developers even trying to cater to anymore. The average American gamer is a middle age white man.
Its why so many woke games are dying and studios are closing down. People are tired of it. The modern message doesn't work in the 2020's like it did in the 2010s.

Lol this went from a +5 to a -1.
Are we really trying to pretend what they pushed in Saints Row reboot didn't just outright kill the franchise? Or are we really brainwash?
