[The Last Stand]

But in all seriousness and thinking about what she can do; it's clearly Lin. She's the best driver they have, worked for another gang, and a real gearhead for cars. Exactly like Lin.

She didn't take any shit, even from her own gang. I wish she had more screentime.

And the fucked thing is I'd not be surprised if that was part of the logic in making Neenah a core part of this clusterfuck. To redeem the death they gave Lin.

Because reminder one of the water headed buffoons in Volition openly stated that he hates the first two games.

Neenah has potential. But the writing is ass.

So he's basically a really shitty version of Shaundi, I thought Volition wanted to "move on" from the old games to be "creative".

God, I still can't get over him wanting that dumbass happy meal toy. Those are the shittiest toys around, why can't he get over not getting one of them while in foster care? Either he had absolutely nothing to worry about back then, or something deeply traumatic happened that stunted his development to the point where he'd murder for one of them (and get tattoos of breakfast food, I don't want to know what Volition was smoking to come up with that idea).

He's the absolute worst Saints Row character (top 10 worst in gaming too), even Donny would want to cave his face in with a waffle iron.

hes the corey spazkid of saints row

While the site was down, it was turned out that SomeOrdinaryGamers actually disliked the game so much, that he actually made a video where he was so angry that he even joked “Somebody‘s not on his medication” when talking about how bad this game is.

I thought I was sure that he was probably joking about forgetting to take his meds before recording this video, but looking at his facial expressions:



Muta does not look like he’s faking it for views. This was honestly both sad and hilarious to watch, for he literally expressed not just disappointment about the new game, but also rage that a 2022 open world game is still leagues behind a Saints Row 2 and Saints Row: The Third that were made almost two decades ago.

I actually do hope it’s not taking a strain on his health, since I’m surprised that I’m the only one posting this video up until this point.

Never watched a single vid from this guy, he just looks like he smells and it puts me off

Never mind that the OG developers of SR were White and the mass majority of gamers are White. I remember seeing marketing that SR2's default boss was African-American.

Black people like Saints Row games but even black people are calling out on the game for being white liberal trash.

 

[Xenomorphs Are Cute]

Speaking of replaying Saints Row 2, I will agree with anyone who swoons over Johnny Gat (him and Kinzie are my favourite agents in Agents of Mayhem), but I also want to give praise to my man Pierce. One of my favourite running gags of Saints Row is how you and Pierce and up singing in duets that end up being memorable moments. The second game, where it started, has one of my favourite missions where you shoot down a bunch of helicopters to intercept drug shipments from the Sons of Samedi to Pierce's cover of "So Sick" by Ne-Yo.

And some mad lad made a full version.

And if you still think that "So Sick" isn't the best drive-by shooting song, you're wrong.

From the third game on the Boss just embraced it, which I always found adorable as you can see how after all these years Pierce went from being your underling to being your friend.

And last, but by absolutely no means least, the Boss' and Pierce's duet of Paula Abdul's "Opposites Attract" was in my opinion one of the game's, if not the entire franchise's biggest highlights.

And Zinyak joining them to Biz Markie's "Just A Friend" always makes me kek.

TL;DR: I love Pierce.

Pierce is the best.

4 had it's issues but Zinyak the Shakespeare quoting galactic overlord was an extremely underrated villain. His voice actor brought this weary exasperated response to your boss's antics that made me laugh every single time.

I shit you not, Zinyak almost convinced me to read Jane Austen.

Muta generally has pretty good takes. Sometimes he can be a bit of a centrist but I would come to him for a game review over Cr1tikal. He has always come off as a more genuine person to me then Critical

He loves his GTA and Crime simulators and knows what the quality should compared to shills and 30 minutes or less game Journos.

 

[Vault Boy]

While I was playing Saints Row 4 last week, I noticed signs that said "Reboot is death." in the simulation.

Uh, I sure hope that death is reserved for Volition only and doesn't include the series with them...

 

[Maude Snew]

Pierce is the best.

Excuse me but you will clearly find that Oleg is the best and him getting blown up like a bitch in the beginning of 4 was a travesty and crime against all video games in general.

 

[Seora]

I'll never understand people latching on to something they never played before and act like they were there from the beginning. What drives a person to do that?

Because they're selfish assholes. Every hobby/ interest that I’ve ever had, has been ruined by newbie faggots who stumble onto said thing and proceed to think they’re entitled to dictate what works/ argue lore/ etc it’s all about their own pretentious needs and how they’re an authority on said thing. These people provide nothing and I hope every single one of them dies from alcoholism in their early 40’s.

So, this has been brought to my attention. If the brave souls who fjorded the shit river can corroborate, I'd appreciate it. Evidently, there is a mission in which you are sent out on a donut run. Ignoring for a second the absolute insanity to think of The BOSS being sent out on bitch work like 'get snacks', evidently, you're expected to wait in line. Like these people played Postal, and missed the point that that shit was meant to be tedious and boring. That was the joke.

Should you play like Postal, and swing like a total psychopath (which, I mean, c'mon, psycopaths in a Saint's Row game? Ha!) you're greeted with this.

On one hand, I do have a soft spot for clever game overs. SR4 had the red pill/blue pill choice with the 'Zinyak lied' shit. But this?

Are you fucking kidding me!?

 

[BetterFuckChuck]

Whatever developer from the SR3 era who tried to self-insert herself as Kinzie IMO. Similar aesthetics and it was the very first thing I thought when I saw her.

But in all seriousness and thinking about what she can do; it's clearly Lin. She's the best driver they have, worked for another gang, and a real gearhead for cars. Exactly like Lin.

Kinzie was a good character tho so I guess they reigned her in and didnt let the dev make her a mary sue. Which you can tell the leash was off for every retard to get their personal OCs into the game, the irony being that the devs are mostly millenial mayos trying to make gen z mullatos

Call me a massive faggot, but I kind of love Kinzie, and for more than just having a redhead fetish.

Yeah, the 'super hacker who's a shut-in loon' is played out, but, I dunno, I found her charming. And unlike these shitheads, she actually had some flaws and growth, even in SR4.

Saints Row 2022 devs: "Yikes, he should have really understood that breakfast isn't served after 10:30 and ordered a burger. Why did he have to do that? Come on, just buy freakin' lunch."

No you do this for like ten seconds before you start getting attacked by random people since you were put on the Wanted app, an ingame vehicle for side mission that's sort of a craigslist for assassins locally. You trying to do normal activities like getting tickets to a game, going to an art show and the like is also the setup for all the crime scene cleanup missions where they're whacky and ~subvert expectations~ because if it didn't land the first time we'll hammer it ten more times.

That's the mission, watch it if you want or don't bother, not worth your time.

Do pretend I wiggled my fingers around and did a whacky voice when I wrote subvert expectations though

Appreciated, but yeah, that is indeed standing and waiting in line. Not as long as postal, granted, but still. 40 seconds of standing around and waiting in a line, in a Saints Row game, is 40 seconds too long.

The knock-off saintsbook thing could still work the exact same without the line. Just walk up, order, and be attacked.

the boss constantly annoys her and undermines her which makes them good foils for eachother. i just also like that she has weird quirks like being into hardcore gangster rap which relates to why she wants to be in the saints and also her being a coomer which leads to her being made fun of by the others
