I always viewed and played Saints Row 4 as a superhero game with the amount of crazy fukkery you could do in that game.... plus I loved the soundtrackI enjoyed SR4 for what it was, even though I knew it was the death of the franchise

I just be honest and don’t be following in what people say just cause they said it.Meach always has to play contrarian
Saints Row 2 got a 6.4 from IGN the first time around. Now everyone pretending it was so great they needed to make another one just like that
I’ve always enjoyed the series for the mindless fun it is don’t really care what reviewers have to say about it.

This game is nothing like SR2. Not tonally, not in design and not in ambition. This game is SR3 lite. Even uses the same animations as 3. It has a lazy cut and paste world like 3, few interiors like 3, is full of MCU style comedy like 3, is full of over the top set pieces like 3, has no mission replay like 3, has a stripped down clothing system like 3, is full of futuristic technology like 3, etc. People need to fukking stop saying this is like 2. That's sending the wrong message to Volilition. If they keep hearing from people that they consider this game like 2 they'll use that as an excuse for why it failed. It's nothing like 2. The story and characters are absolute shyt. The map is absolute shyt. The activities are absolute shyt.I just be honest and don’t be following in what people say just cause they said it.

I’m convinced y’all got bad memories or something.
3 was over the too crazy both in tone and gameplay.
The reboot is not that.
The activities are more like SR2 than 3.
Only thing not like 2 is the “west coast hip hop” aesthetic that was popular at the time.
Gameplay wise this game like a reboot of SR2
Will probably cop when it's $20 with updates

I changed my mind on the Day 1 purchase. I’ll still get this but it’ll be when it’s on sale. LA Noire is on sale for $20 bucks until September 1.

The gameplay in this game is far more like 3 than 2. Laying on top of cars shooting people as the car drives? That shyt wouldn't be in 2. The way you throw grenades in this game is exactly the same animation as 3. The drug pallets you find around the world are the exact same as 3. The Vtol? Ripped directly from 3. This game uses the exact same assets as 3. It's basically an asset flip.
There’s obviously some gameplay additions over 2 but it’s not the slapstick over the top robots and superhero shyt that was in the latter games.

You fly with a wing suit which is a substitute for the gliding in 4. You have finishing moves like 3. The Marshalls(one of the gangs) has robots. The Marshalls have laser weapons. In fact, all 3 gangs are based on the gangs in 3. The Idols are glowy nerds like The Deckers. Los Panteros are big muscleheads like the Luchadores and The Marshalls use hi-tech weapons like the Morningstar. The 100% ending even ends with a dance number like 4.
After reading the reviews I still might buy this to play it.
About to hit to this purchase button on the Xbox Store. shyt only 60 bucks
waiting for that discount / patch combo
