I'm starting to think that the shirtless douchebag is autistic. He's obsessed with waffles to the point of tattooing them on his body & pining for a $300 waffle iron, he coerces the "Boss" into going on a deadly rampage to retrieve some happy meal toy (don't care about the context, I'm sure it's incredibly idiotic regardless), and he seems to can't stand the feeling of wearing a shirt (vanity, or too much sensitivity?).

Maybe I'm overthinking it, maybe the writers just created a character so horrendous that he'd have a subforum on the Farms regardless.

It's like they saw watch dogs 2 went "you know what this game needs? Half the size of the world three times the autism and the Prime_8 faggot as a protagonist!
I liked Watch Dogs 2 too. More because I can dance on top of my drone that I rigged to explode that then launches me into the objective facefirst. But still. That and how accurate California #activism cringe is and also how fucking useless it is without a magic beard man. But this one actually thinks being an autistic faggot with no goal is a good thing. eugh.

No I won't... I liked them since the beginning, despite it's issues.

Except that I unironically loved Saints Row IV and had the most fun with it.

However, I do agree with anyone who thought that Gat Out Of Hell was shit.

GOoH wasn't the worst, just kinda bland & sometimes really cringe (that Disney musical gave me a PTSD of sorts).

It's actually my favorite superhero game. On its own merits, it was a good game. I don't see why the SR fandom has a problem with it.

It has it's set of understandable issues, but most of the hate comes from nostalgiafags.

There's a frightening level of disconnect when it comes to hipster power fantasies like WD2 and this game. Committing violent crimes is A-OK but don't you DARE make people have to pay student loans or misgender someone. Granted, your character does some pretty heinous shit in the original series but the writer had the decency to acknowledge that your character is a violent thug. You're never really in the right morally speaking because at the end of the day, you're criminal fighting against other criminals.

Also SR1/2/3/4/IDFKMayhem at least was cohesive.
What in the fuck is this? This is too autistic even for zoomers and theyve been mindfucked by retardo fortnite bullshit.

Fortnite and its consequences have been a disaster for the gaming community.

I don't believe that's even true anymore. Games usually sell like shit on the Epic store and if the state of Volition is really as bad as I'm reading around here there's a very real chance it could just die there and not make it to Steam at all. Add to that that Saints Row isn't one of the big players that will shift copies regardless by sheer inertia like current year sports game x or current year realistic shooter y and the insane numbers publishers set as sales goals there is a very real chance this might actually completely tank. Probably slightly optimistic here and it will just manage to scrape by and be forgettable as fuck but I have been seeing some amount of pushback against shit like that and we'll see where it goes.

Since it came from the Epic Store, I have a related link:

But in short, the "exclusivity" by Epic usually means a red flag since it only caters to a few audiences, as well as being completely inferior to Steam. Add that to the previews and well its a bankrupt shitstorm.

Wouldn’t be as much of an issue if the Epic site actually functioned properly too.
 
Im not angry, I'm just disappointed overall.

Still, this going the AoM route means I'll be picking it up with the season pass for £5 in three months.

It reminds me of Ubisoft trying to be "iconic."

Johnny Gat was an iconic character for being a straight talking, murderous psychopath. KEVIN tries to be iconic by being a hipster that loves waffles and being shirtless.

Their whole attribute is centered around one thing. But, they don't earn anything to establish themselves.

It was kind of stupid how they originally brought him back after his death in the first place, but we're never getting Johnny Gat back again in this franchise. And that isn't a good thing.

Bad enemies in games is something that's been getting worse and worse as time goes on. I remember games during my ps2 and ps3 years having far more interactive and strategic enemies than many games on the modern Ps4/ps5, who will often just run at you in a horde or something.

Do you think they get funding simply for ticking the right boxes, or do they have to get eyeballs on the product?
It's clear it doesn't really matter how much they sell.
