Soys Row 2022

[Belegarsson]

Didn't IdolNinja die like 4 years ago now? Didn't Volition promise that they'd finish the SR2 remaster in his memory? I wonder what happened to that.

He died exactly 1 year ago, right when the reboot was announced.

They didn't forget about him but they surely forgot about SR2.

A lot of the cringey zoomer/millenial shit is obscufated with irony. People who like that shit will think they're only playfully making fun of those characters, while those who hate them will think the jokes are a genuine jab at them.

I've watched a bit more of it, and the biggest criticism is how boring it is.

It's not a terrible, it just hovers around 6 and 7 out of 10 for the most part.

I think it looks pretty good myself. Then again I'm and oldfag and still wowed by graphics from 2002.

Isn't 5 = Average? You seem to want to like this game. Just buckle the fuck down and buy it then.

5/10 = Unplayable

6/10 = Between passable and unplayable.

7/10 = Passable

8/10 = Good

9/10 = Great

10/10 = Masterpiece

I want to hate this game actually.

That's why 0-5 stars, with whole stars only, is the best system.

Then you see the dev team...

Who the hell is hiring these troglodytes in the first place? That's the problem.

Libtards can't make anything good.

 

[The Wall]

Just look at newly announced Tales of Borderlands. What is even that shit?! Nuclear Cringe

 

[Corbin Dallas Multipass]

Libtards can't make anything good.

No need, they'll just rewrite the history books to say they did in fact make the good things.

The Saints Row reboot had a budget of 150 million USD and will need to sell 4-5 million copies at full price to recoup its budget. Libtards killed another IP.

That was so bad. It'd be like if they recorded me singing instead of someone others might want to listen to.

Recorded in the bathroom, totally unedited for the scene.

Came across some sponsored gameplay of this game by coincidence on Twitch. Decided to watch about 20 minutes out of curiosity. Supposedly it's in early access still? In any case, I'm at a loss for words on how bad this game seemed. Meh story (but what would you expect), incredibly awful dialog, overall bad movement and gunplay, comical physics, 286 era AI, PS3 era graphics. Zoomers in chat spammed on several occasions stuff like "2022 'game' OMEGALUL" and "This is F2P, right???" It was honestly fun to watch due to being so over the top awful. While I never particularly cared for Saints Row, I was completely surprised how they managed to utterly destroy this IP.

Those soy lattes won't pay for themselves.

Where did all the money go? because the game is certainly not up to AAA polishing you'd expect.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

AAA polishing you'd expect

For those that like Worth a Buy...

I got this shit for free with my graphics card and I can't muster the enthusiasm to download this and play it.

Oh, well the game looks and sounds terrible but they clap back at the haterz on teh socials so I'll buy 5 copies whilst shouting "You go girl" and attempting to snap my fingers in a sassy manner.
Companies passive aggressive posting in response to criticism of their shit products is so fucking cringe.

 

[orcinator]

Torrent done. Files unpacked.
Waifu from creator demo, screenshotted and copied.
Okay now for the real game.


Oh god there's a press E to automatically shoot barrels feature, and then they have a turret sequence. And of course nobody shuts up.
I'm less than 5 mins into it and I'm ready to puke.

 

[lightbane]

Can't watch these after credits segment videos people keep posting, my browser refuses to load them no matter which one I use.

I checked a credits video where the game devs are shown, and every one of them is an ugly soyboy, literally. Is that it?

Nope. Uploaded it for you. This is what you get for 100%ing the game.

 

[Morpheus Kitami]

apparently the game only uses royalty-free music, almost like it was made with the express purpose of catering to zoomer twitch streamers

Having not played the game, I'm sure there's some streamer mode to disable the radio stations, but they're still there:

I'm genuinely shocked at how much nice stuff they got for the metal station, considering they didn't have one in SR4. Heathen and Benediction seems like a bit out there choices for zoomerbait. And you can tell they mostly went for zoomerbait, since there's no classic rock station. Seems a shame its tied into possibly the worst open-world GTA clone ever made.

Why bother even pirating it? I'm pretty sure you can get someone to take a steaming dump on you for free too instead of paying a hooker to do it, doesn't make it a particularly good idea.

 

[JamesDixon]

I petition Curious_Tongue to change the thread title to Soy Row since this abomination of a game has zero to do with real Saints Row. If you agree with this petition rate this post.

 

[Late Bloomer]

Here is one of the few reviews that found the game to be stellar. Its by a black dude (going by the voice at least) who received the game for free. Says its one of the most fun games and isnt woke.
