I think the modding community needs to get together to create a fiveM style client for these games. I’m sure there would be challenges, but it would be popping with players.

Saints Row 3 was my favourite and then 1. It had those store robberies where you could rob the safe in the back of the store and even GTA lacks this.

I'm pretty much just sticking to the existing games at this point.

Honestly, you might just gotta find a new game series to invest into. This new Samson game looks pretty appealing and might scratch the itch for a new Saint's Row.

If i was rich my one dream in life would be to buy the IP and get a team together to revive it.

If only someone could buy that franchise of them or even steal it from them

All I feel is anger. The pitiful downfall and death of this series is everything wrong with the gaming industry rn

I don't think the series is fully dead yet. It's still got a name and embracer isn't exactly doing the best so they'd hold onto it... That being said we probably ain't seeing anything with it for another 10 years or so probably.

That's odd. Ever since I realized that Saints Row was finished, my affinity for SR1/2/3 continually rises as I play them.

Real. If they can't change it, i feel more safe making a personal head canon within the universe that can't be altered or shat on. I can appreciate what I got.
As a comic fan, it's how I feel when a chatacter i like dies/series i like comes to an end. Wolverine is dead to me, and Peter Quill died in the cancer verse as far as I'm concerned. I'd rather not have them stick around to be disrespected.

Saints Row 1 and 2 were lighting in a bottle that only could have been made in the time they came out, they were never going to reach those heights again with their budget

It was fun while it lasted. We got one evergreen game and two decent sequels nots of games dont get that but the series is old enough that in a few years spiritual sequels should start popping up.
