SAINTS ROW's Platinum Trophy is a BUGGY MESS

I don't know what's wrong with me, but I still want to play it. You know... to see if it really is that bad. Every once in a while I end up loving a game that everyone hates. Right now that is the new sonic

I can just imagine the game programers laughing their asses off when they were programing the boss repeatedly yelling balls in their car or when the boss tried to make a waffle. They probably laughed so hard they passed out and their head hit the keyboard inputing invalid code that let to all the bugs this game had.

Not sure if it’s my mic or Nvidia broadcast messing up, but I’ve noticed a couple of issues with my mic like a lot of popping here and there. I’ll have to have a play around and see what’s causing it. Hopefully it isn’t too bad!

for me the worst part about this game is that i dont care about a single character, had this issue in Saints Row 4 too, that because it was all a simulation, and earth was destroyed anyways, nothing seemed to matter, consequences for actions felt basically absent, and somehow this game manages to feel the same way, except for it not being a simulation. its baffling. the only moment i felt just about anything was when Nina explained why the car matters to her so much after it got destroyed, and thats it. absolutely emotionally shallow. additionally, the story was awful and quite short, i feel like maybe more was planned, like seen with Marshells new director throwing out a threat and all that, but things had to get cut and so they threw in the betrayal twist to end it, thats what it feels like at least. also, during my playthrough, on the mission when kev or whoever gets kidnapped by the idols, i went into the salloon and attacked the guy at the slot mashine i think it was, and my char instead of playing the attack animation, T-poses, which disables you from progressing any further. read online peoples only solution to this was to delete and re-install the game... thats beyond sad. i tried restarting the game, didnt fix it, but restarting the console did??? weird. the T-pose issue also happened at the end of the only part of the game i really enjoyed, when you take the throne at the end of dustmoot. what a shit show

I actually had a lot of fun with this game. I agree that the story is awful and has too many plot holes and nonsense that makes no sense, but just running around and doing the side missions I found enjoyable. The parts of the story that made me the most mad were Eli and the boss just surviving these potentially fatal wounds with zero explanation and the fact that somehow the Nahuali is no match for the power of friendship.

Thanks for suffering through this plat for us awesome video as always you should seriously try super hot to see if it has a plat it’s such an amazing game

Cant believe volition are shutting down:( sr2 was my childhood and i played a shit ton of sr3 as well. Rest in paradise to one of the greatest game franchises

I think the main thing that makes this game worse that the others, apart from just not playing very well, is the story. It felt like they were trying REALLY hard to be funny while falling flat. One was a fun enough "gta clone", two was just a really fun game with a great story, three, while ridiculous, actually played it's story pretty straight, and four was just a really fun 80s/90s movie parody. It was very different but i liked it. Two and three were far from serious a lot of the time, especially three, but they were serious enough to amplify the humor in my opinion. I think that juxtaposition is what made those games what they were.

So from what we have heard from former members of Volition (some who broke NDA). The game was entirely different for a good chunk of it's development. Original plan for the cast was actually Gat, Aisha, Dex, Shaundi, and Pierce. In the end finally having that moment of revenge on Dex that we never got. The goal was to hit a game in between the style of 2 and 3. 80% SR2 and 20% SR3. However it seems their publisher DeepSilver had other ideas and basically told them their entire idea for the game was terrible and that it wouldn't sell. Basically made them change the entire premise behind it a good chunk into development. This is why certain elements are great whilst others are terrible. It was a development team that was conflicted at best. Some who had to completely restart after this change. Many who didn't even want to work on this new project anymore. Now DeepSilver isn't the entire blame here. Upper management at Volition plays a part here too but man it sucks. After Reboot's failure Volition was actually switching publishers to GearBox. This would have done so much good for a company that was constantly screwed over by their publisher. Sadly the second things were looking better EmbracerGroup shut them down without warning.

People are starting to catch on to how The Nahualli is (allegedly) an allegory, by the writers, of the old school Saints Rows fans and/or The Boss of previous games. The twist and “ending” of the game make a lot more sense when you bear that in mind. Even then…it’s terrible, mean-spirited, and hollow.

the platinum was such a grind

I actually enjoyed this game and had every trophy but the prankster one. When it came out on playstation plus I downloaded it, and used the physical copy on my brothers ps5 and then just played co-op by myself to get the prankster trophy to get my platinum haha

The CO op trophies is what's keeping me from platinum . Nobody plays it 😂😂😂😂

I bought this on sale on XBOX even that didn’t make it worth it sad this ended the franchise unfortunately

honestly i was planning on doing this one but i dropped it entirely after 4 story missions yes its true i as a classic saints row fan was so offended by this piece of digital trash that i could not make it past the prologue it was that freaking bad its an absolute insult to everything those first 4 games stood for

I am currently going for this plat. The main story was unenjoyable, and the characters weren't likeable at all so I ended up playing it on mute. It's just drive here, defeat enemies, cut scene, next mission, rinse and repeat. The post campaign open world grind is an absolute slog. Clearing the districts is tedious and boring. 1/10, do not recommend.

I bought it right when it came out.. this is the only game I've ever got a refund for, or even tried to get a refund for.

Thx , I want know if I play in PS4 and I play ps5 did trophy pop auto ?
