There are monster trucks in Saints Row 2 and Saints Row 4. So I guess that makes you anti-Saints Row 1 & 3

I couldve sworn 3 had them? It had some really satisfying car crush physics with tanks.

I'm almost 100% positive it didn't. The car crush physics were really satifying though, that's true

i enjoyed 4 as a superhero game, but it was weird how like 30 minutes into the game there was no reason at all to use vehicles ever

Is IV better than 3, the wackiness was endearing at first but it wore out its welcome fast. Not because it was too wacky but because too much of it fell flat.

Yeah, it's still pretty over the top but it plays it completely straight instead of just relying on the wackiness to carry the game. It's goofy as hell and doesn't stop being goofy, but it takes itself pretty seriously despite that, which I think made for a really strong game.

Saints Row 2 is still my favorite, but 4 comes really close, and they are different enough that I feel like there's reason to want to play both.

i thought that the writing and humor in 4 worked out a lot better than it did in 3.

i liked 4 and thought it was really funny all the way through, my only complaints are:

-it's kinda short
-no reason to use cars once you have superpowers
-nothing can stand up to you once you have superpowers. even the super enemies are a total joke, and stay the same the whole game while you keep getting way stronger

i mean it's still fun as gently caress but it felt awkward steamrolling the entire game

it's no big mystery. people who hate sr4 just have a deep hatred for fun. it's a common thing for misanthropic subcultures like gamerdom.

the only problem i have with 4 is that it's still in steelport.

absolutely, steelport is just so loving boring. 4's best innovation was making it so you just jumped over it all and didn't have to traverse its dull road layout. call me when saints row V is here to reboot the series entirely with a new more interesting city.

gta is super good because you can mod the driving physics with a simple txt file

I had 90+ hours in gta4 because I got a driving txt which made the story irrelevant since the driving was just so good

I tried using that file to make driving cars actually enjoyable and less "realistic" but I got tired of that and just made some weird poo poo instead.

also xbox_gaming

there's a text editor in all the custom dashboards and all the gta games use the same layout so i spent mad time messing with san andreas and vice city when i had a poo poo pc and a modded xbox

there's a certain joy about driving down the strip in vice city with a pcj-600 that weighs roughly the same as the moon

Comedy is basically self-deprecation.
People who like GTA are genuinely bad people because Saints Row can be the only open world game to exist, despite the series having almost no similarities anymore besides CRIME and CARS.
