That left Saints Row with a choice - stick or twist. In the eight years since Saints Row 4 released, GTA has moved to fill the vacuum of silliness itself, becoming a parody of what it once was thanks to GTA Online. Saints Row 3 shifted the series towards a slightly sillier direction, before Saints Row made you the President, gave you superpowers, and charged you with stopping an alien invasion. It started out as a riff on GTA, one that took itself a little less seriously but still remained fairly down to Earth. What’s more surprising though is that the trailer is being called out for being woke, which, um… have you ever played Saints Row before? Gamers don’t like games sometimes - that’s not a major surprise. At the time of writing, it’s at 11k up and 14k down, which is enough to see that the latter has a significant lead, but not so much that you might call it universal disapproval.

For those not up to speed on how kids these days talk when they’re not Tiking and Toking, it basically means the trailer has more people clicking thumbs down than thumbs up. Saints Row’s reboot trailer is currently in the midst of being ratio’d on YouTube.
