Whites are being systematically erased from American entertainment. Do you know that most foreigners think that America is like at least 60% black country, because of how many niggers there are in your songs, movies, video games. I'm serious. In 2010s, literally 90% of POP songs are white bitch and black rapper

I'm not even white, I"m just Gray Alien who placed his bet 2000 years ago on wrong race. Gotta accept loss at Galactic Casino, I guess. Unless Great Miracle happens

Chief creative officer Jim Boone says that it’s, broadly, a “contemporary” millennial “power fantasy.”

I have to wonder what the fuck is going on with the creative departments when it comes to creating female characters? Every single female character coming out of the West has:
  • side shaved cyberpunk hair
  • a mans body type with a female head on it
  • is a lesbian
  • is a utter bitch in terms of personality
  • a narcissist
  • is a Mary Sue who is the best at everything
  • a misandrist
  • has no sex appeal
  • is the embodiment of toxic masculinity in female form
Jesus Christ! I'll take the waifu bait made by the Japs over the utter cancerous dog shit female characters coming out of the West.
art imitates life

But these characters are thin.

It's dumb middle class zoomer crap but I don't see how it's "woke." The first game was full of black people, the second, third and fourth games kept adding more women and so on. The writing didn't appear to have a prog agenda, just obnoxious.

One of the questions raised in the roundtable with the game’s developers was that of cultural appropriation. The six people made available for interview were all middle-aged white men, creating a game set in a region where a significant proportion of the population is Latinx or Hispanic. Creative director Jim Boone said that diversity was important, and there was an explicit focus on making the team producing the game as diverse as the characters in it.

I wish White Leftist dipshits would stop calling Latinos "Latinx". There is no "Latinx" in the Spanish language. It is nothing but colonization and appropriation of the Spanish language by White Leftist SJW's. It is funny how the irony doesn't fall on them.

No, let them continue. Democrat strategists are begging candidates to not use it because it infuriates Hispanic audiences so much. Let them kill themselves.

They'll call you much worse things once they've replaced the Somewhat Browns with the Full-On Browns from Islamistan.

The facial models/animations legit look like something out of a 360/PS3 title. I noticed this with quite a few trailers at Gnomescom. Probably a mix of conscious art direction, lack of talent, and doing the groundwork for the inevitable Switch port.

Whoever thought it was a good idea to make the Saints a group of 20-something ugly nerd hipster doofus should be fired...from a cannon, into a large brick wall. Those characters just look fucking dumb. They seem like extreme parody versions of characters from Watch Dogs 2, but even the Watch Dogs 2 characters look tougher than these guys and they were designed to be a group of hipster nerd hackers. Black guy looks like fucking hipster Steve Urkel.

About the only interesting thing in that cinematic trailer is it tells you not all weapons will be based on real world weapons, and it little Deadpool DMC5 bit with the car could maybe mean the action isn't as grounded in reality as a GTA game. They really better hope the gameplay part looks real fucking good.

Do they think we are blind? I can't wait for hot civil war. Words are cheap, and kill 0 SJWs. Shotguns on other hand...
kill 0 SJWs too. The only steady SJW killing is tranny suicides. You are too cucked to use shotgun for anything other than masturbating.

This news really pisses me off. I love the SR series (well, all the games except 1 since I don't have a console), and this is just a kick in the nuts. OTOH, at least it means they won't be able to sully the legacy left behind by the Boss.

Virgin Saint's Row gang:
E9sT95hVcAM-pCF
Chad original SR3 gang:
apps.20467.64418464038488926.c1623336-fa96-48d7-8252-c1a92382f48a.b888d7a6-f053-405b-89fd-701b257e3354

There is nothing Chad about the cucked SR3 Saints.

This is the only acceptable Shaundi:

I've always found it amusing how they managed to do a 180° on Shaundi's character going from SR2 to SR3. Still love em both. :love:

Was there a single joke in that trailer? Do they even know what genre of game this is supposed to be?

I find this especially infuriating because at the end of Gat out of Hell they have

all the characters recreated in various parallel universes where they're in different situations. Like one where they're cops.

I assumed that one of those was how they were going to reboot the franchise for the next game. But I guess they've gone 100% all out to appeal to zoomers, and you can't make jokes around a zoomer because someone's feelings might get hurt.

Why are they calling it a reboot at all? Just say that you are doing another SR game.

I wonder if they've limited cup size in the character creator.
Or if long blonde hair will be an option at all.
