Gameplay wasn't beyond saving but it was going to take a lot more effort and resources to fix than Embracer was willing to put in. What's really infuriating though is that they shut down Volition before they could even fix some of the major bugs. You like the weapon customization? Too bad, it resets to default every time you re-load a save. Wanna go for 100% completion? Tough luck, some challenges can't be completed after taking over every territory. Wanna play in Vulkan mode? Hope you're not using an AMD card, game crashes during shader compilation. At the end of the day it matters very little though, the story, characters and the general design of the game is so bad that putting up with it to get to the good stuff just isn't worth it.

The main issue is Volition got so limited in what they could do and got forced to do with the Embracer Group wanted. This is exactly this resulted in a Saints Row game too inside the box.

@@AuspiciousFrogIt's really stupid how everyone was so quick to blame Volition for just about everything. I knew from the beginning that it was mostly EG/DS who was responsible.

@@JackFoxtrotEDM Frankly, I don't think Volition was entirely without sin. Do publishers suck and insist on dumb shit being added? Of course. But I don't think there was someone from publishing who came in and went "hmmmm, could we NOT give the rival gangs any interactions? That'd just distract the player." And lets not forget, the media team was more then happy to call out people saying Saints Row was looking kinda dog water from the teasers, and say "Nuh uh, don't buy it then bigot". There may have been a contingent of Volition wanting that return to form. But also one that insisted they change the name to FB's as Bitch was too offensive a word for a game you can indiscriminately kill.

if i wanted nerdy hipster gangs or groups i would go play watch dogs 2 which does it way better than saints row 2022 and it works well because in a way i kinda invision hackers as nerdy like characters which fits the narrative in the game sure there might be some cringe moments like sitara saying "we'll hit em where it gigahertz"but other than that it wasn't filled with over the top cringe bs that made me quit the game and wanna sell it too someone else i still have my copy that i bought 4 years ago and have like 600 hrs in total on the game and still think its a great game and fun to play

It kinda felt like a shitty sitcom that was trying to hard to cater to too many people and in doing so it catered to no one and lost its identity. And the whole game played it safe because they didn’t want to offend anyone and made it cringe. That being said I did enjoy parts of the game and had a few laughs.

It’s a shame knowing what could have been, finding out upper management pushed for attracting a broader audience, making bizarre decisions like pushing hard for the teal colour? I don’t get why people come into projects wanting to dismantle the fundamentals! Like when 343i came into the picture for Halo and felt it necessary to redesign a very unique and distinct aesthetic, changing the way everything looked, but in the process a lot of the identity was lost and it only got worse with 5. It seems to me that video game development requires an ebb and flow with compromise. The creative side needs to challenge the business heads and fight for what they want, what they need, but at the same time the business guys need to hold them accountable, setting goals and deadlines. A give and take needs to exist in order for the end product to be great. It boils down to mismanagement but the imbalance always leads to some kind of issues, the game is a buggy mess and unoptimised on PC, the monitization is predatory, it gets stuck in development hell, the game had too many cooks in the kitchen with no core vision or the polar opposite of one person having too much creative control. Honestly game development is a mess and it’s a miracle anything ever releases.

30:20 "Place them where you want" Yeah, and then unintentionally make things harder on yourself. Like for example the Waste truck mission (which is already tedious as hell). You can place it anywhere you like, you may wanna be thematic and place it out in the desert. And THEN you realize more then half the trucks you need to collect on on the opposite side of the map, and you're now having to drive farther then you would have if you had just shoved the radioactive dump dead center of the map. Then of course you realize the Trucks have a chance to spawn randomly so you just sit outside the place and spawn camp them instead. That's also the case for the Towing missions but at least that's less tedious when you realize you can build a Super Tow Truck and finish them pretty quickly. There's really a lot of these "ok ideas, dumpster execution" that just makes up the entire game. Like "Hey, we got little stores you can buy some goofier items" "Cool, so they're an actual store right?" "No, they're the equivalent of a farmers market stall".

Hi! I have a question, how do you use fonts from videogames or other media in your thumbnails or posts? (Like in the Rayman Legends video), because the only way I know is using pages that allow you to write the text that you want with a certain font, but it is very time-consuming for content creation when you want to use a font very often or configure it a little more. Good video btw, i wanted to donate but it seems like you dont have monetization turned on, so i will just wish you luck with this project that is your channel and tell you to never give up :D
@AuspiciousFrog
2 ай бұрын
Hey! Firstly, thanks, it's very much appreciated, but donations aren't necessary at all! As for the fonts, with a lot of games people online will either rip them from games, or make their own versions and share them online, usually free to download. Alternatively, you could make your own font, although I have no experience with this. Hope this helps!

I remember when the teasers were out and they were showing off that LARPing would be involved. First I thought it was going to be the most cringe and annoying part of the game. But I got to it, and while it was a bit cringe, it at least embraced the fact rather then seem ignorant to it like the rest. And it honestly felt far more on the level for these Nu Saints then them being gangsters, especially ones running a criminal empire. I was a bit sad when the story line concluded and I had to go back as LARPing as a gangster rather then a post apocalypse wastelander. Even the Factions in the LARP section were more fleshed out then the gangs.
