Well, back in the day they didn't cast Daniel Dae Kim for his singing ability.

Honestly him and Kinzie's VA do a pretty good job for not being singers.

The only way this can be better is if the entire thing really *is* a musical. :allears:

It's not a musical, its a Disney movie.

quote:

Why is there a musical number in the new Saints Row? Well, Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell, its creators say, was inspired by Disney fare like Sleeping Beauty and Snow White.

"I wanted [Gat Out of Hell] to feel like a Disney movie, a Disney fairytale, with whimsical love songs," creative director Steve Jaros told Polygon earlier this year. "So we got to play with a lot of tropes that are standard in the fairytale space. If you watch something like Sleeping Beauty, a birthday party is what kicks off the terrible events, so a birthday party kicks off our terrible event. Jezebel is a happy princess and, in hell, rebellion is to be happy, so she rebels against her father [Satan] by saying she doesn't want to be forced to marry anybody she doesn't love.

"And instead of having talking animals, we have a talking gun."

I've been fine with the ride into madness that is SR 3 and up but I kind of hope the entire game isn't like this at least. I don't hate fun or anything but Disney style musicals aren't really my thing so if it's like that the whole time it will be a bit of a strain on my personal tastes anyway. It's certainly a brave an unexpected move though, drat.

Now if it was a Blues Brothers style musical I'd be all over that. Well actually I already pre-ordered so I'm playing it either way, but you know what I mean.

It sounds like it's not. But this is essentially a Saint's Row take on the classic Disney canon, so they have a musical number.


Shakespeare's boss fight is going to be AMAZING if this is anything to go by.

Everything changes, Pit.

The musical stuff seems pretty funny, should work out well for a side-game though I'm curious if they're going to reboot the series or just keep going with the crazy past this point.

Also reminds me of this classic:

Thanks so much for posting this video - I remember trying to find it when IV came out, because of how much the Rifts reminded me of the bugs in this video. Like, they very specifically recreate these glitches, in the Rifts.

I think it's pretty cool that they keep moving away from the po-faced style of the GTA series. It's what they were looking for in SR3 until they settled on a direction in SRIV. It's working great for them. Loved the musical trailer (both of them).

That's the real danger. Imagine waking up one day next to your muscular white buff husband, and you roll over to see that overnight they turned into a morbidly obese Hispanic woman with the voice of Nolan North. Stability in a relationship is not the Boss' forte.

This game has to be fanfiction, theres no way anyone wouldn't want to marry MY boss. Also that they could keep the boss caged for more than a few minutes haha.

I know the Boss isn't really in the game past the very beginning, due to not being able to get all seven voice actors back. But my question is, is the Boss going to at least look like the Boss we used in IV? I know it seems like it's probably not the case, but I'll be pretty bummed if I can't at least see my Bailey-Boss frozen in carbonite.

I think his looks darker because his arm is all scarred and burned and badass. Which brings me back to my original complaint :colbert:

That just reminds me of the Last of Us outtake where they were mocapping one of the scenes and they played a prank on Troy Baker when all the other characters started singing. But then he just plays along by singing too.
I really really badly want them to have managed to get at least Baker back for this. He's my Boss anyway.

My Boss's voice wasn't in IV so she sounded wrong the whole game anyway. So at least I won't be bothered by anything like that when I run around wrecking poo poo with Kinzie instead.
