Saints Row Reboot

Re: Saints Row Reboot

The game starts off tame, but it will go balls to the wall over the top soon. Still a fun game if you have the right expectations.

Definitely is tame to start off. It feels somewhat similar to the start to Saints Row 2, but I do expect it to go way over the top soon

Re: Saints Row Reboot

Can anyone else confirm there’s a bunch of side missions, activities in the game?

Yes, they are called “side hustles”.

They are very repetitive and are mainly drive from point A to point B.

Re: Saints Row Reboot

This is a bit of hyperbole. Most people who have enjoyed the series less and less and aren't the biggest fans of the direction of the reboot, like myself, are simply not the biggest fans of how wacky and ridiculous the games got.

I'm fine with things like the sex toy baseball bat or the guns that bring about shark attacks or make people dance. Those are fun and you don't have to use them if you don't want to. I'm not as big of a fan of spending a huge chunk of the main storyline in a tron-like universe fighting some wacky hacker faction.

The people who complain about the direction of the game wanted to see it stay true to the first two games. Even the second game was wacky compared to the first, but the first game was clearly a competitor that's theme was similar to San Andreas and none of the factions in the game were over the top.

I've still enjoyed the series for what it has turned into, but had I had control of the series it wouldn't have gone the direction it has. People not liking how wacky the story and factions have gotten aren't hating on the game because it has millennials as characters, or because the game has minority characters, or anything like that, it's because the series has you taking on gun manufacturers, the military on floating air craft controllers, fighting in digital tron worlds, etc.

I just want to have different gangs that are more grounded that are fighting for control of a city. The territory warfare that was in San Andreas that clearly influenced the original Saints Row is the kind of stuff a lot of people like myself loved spending time playing.

This isn't to say all haters are justified or logical. There are still idiots out there saying the game has gone woke because they marketed it with a female character, or because the characters are young, whatever. Those people are idiots and should be ignored. Not all people disappointed with the direction of the series should be lumped in with those people. Many of us would have rather the game kept a theme that was more similar to what the original game had going for it versus what we have gotten the last few releases.

Well said. This is exactly how I feel.

Re: Saints Row Reboot

Trying to play this game on Sensei mode had me ready to pull my hair out. I was attempting missions 4-8 times before completing them. Had to lower the difficulty to Hustler so I could really enjoy it. So far I have only 12% completed since I'm mainly focusing on side missions.

Re: Saints Row Reboot

So after playing it for a few hours with a friend of mine, I didn't really care for it but he loved it.

I think that pretty much sums up as to how this game is going to be.

I’m not sure how many there are. Sorry. I haven’t had a chance to play the game and am still in the tutorial.

Re: Saints Row Reboot

Playing on PS4 and loving the game! Even though graphics are not as good as WD2, I love the look of the game, and anyway I expected it since SR games always had dated graphics from the start.

But I'm confused - how do you shoot while driving? Is it R1 or do you need to switch seats to make it work? Got to do it a few times but I'm not sure what I did. What am I missing here?

Re: Saints Row Reboot

Never mind, figured it out.

Anyway, I must say that the more I drive across the map, the more I love it! Driving through these country town while listening to country music is super relaxing and beautiful. Looks very authentic as well, especially with those green highway signs, and absolutely enjoyable. I spend hours just driving through the map, obeying traffic rules and enjoying the atmosphere.

Taking my time, doing 1 or 2 main missions and then some side activities, and lots of driving, customizing car. Just my kind of game.

Re: Saints Row Reboot

Found the perfect spot and took this beautiful shoot on PS4 (this is actually off-screen with my phone). This could easily be an official wallpaper for the game, I think.
