This is the lead writer, she just got picked up for Beyond Good and Evil 2. No talent whatsoever.

I was watching footage of the game wondering how anyone could write such intensely unfunny dialogue and this explains it all. A woke white woman with hipster glasses wrote it. Just scrolling through her archived twitter shows her retweeting tweets about fascism and capitalism. Ironic given that she's in the gaming industry which is one of the most ruthlessly capitalistic businesses. I hope the woke brownie points you got was worth throwing away millions of dollars Volition. Fucking morons.

Wait, is this real?
People here are saying it's not, I wouldn't know either way since AMD is dragging on giving me the promised key that comes with the new GPU I recently bought. DENUVO and Epic exclusive means I wouldn't have spent money on it but I needed the replacement anyway so I will check into it once they get going and follow up. I'm dreading the game already though this would just be the cherry on the shitberg.

I want to see video proof. Until then, this game sucks.

What's a bigger flop: GTA: The Trilogy: The Definitive Edition or this reboot?

Open world crime games are dead now with this current political climate. Not even the religious parents dreamt of this.
GTA probably spent way less money, so….

Lol. Lmao even.

What even is Volition at this point? I assume most of the key talent left and the studio is now dominated by a bunch of millennials/zoomers. Similar to what's happened to Blizzard.

If companies are too afraid to do a proper Saints Row game out of fear offending ResetEra types why even bother? Anyone with common sense would know a "millennial power fantasy" has extremally limited appeal and fans of the series would reject that. The game being a technical disaster on top of that is just icing on the cake. I don't see how the studio or the series survive this.
not to overplay my hand but im a pretty young guy and this game seems like a 40 year old wine aunts idea of how to appeal to me. i hate this. then again im not into marvel so there might be a massive demographic of people my age who want this but millenials are OLD. theyre uncool as shit so trying to sell this as a millenial power fantasy is like if they made a film in the 90s to appeal to boomers
 
"You know that whacky game series famous for never taking itself too seriously? Let's ham-fistedly shove in dead serious political commentary about one of the most controversial issues in America right now! Let's not even bother to make it a joke!" Then someone else in the writers room nodded their head and said "Yeah, that sounds like a great idea for Saints Row. Really fits the game. Let's use our platform for good!" Beyond parody doesn't even begin to describe it.
 
I'd legit demand my money back the moment I saw such a preachy fucking comment like that.

Also yeah, fell for the bait. It's really telling that modern entertainment is so horrible that I actually thought that sort of thing was a plausible thing you could see in this game.
they never do this thing in the game itself because they know deep down they would alienate the i

Reminder that it's not too late to apologise.
