    This is only somewhat related but when I failed my college classes one semester I spent the winter break playing Saints Row 2 and I DESPISED the game. I felt like its jovial tone was mocking me at my lowest and it only made me more depressed as I played if those dozens of hours.

    I also remember in Saints Row 2 you could choose your gender, whereas in 1 you had to play a dude. Since canonically you play the same character in all four games, this creates a discrepancy. How does the game address this?

    I’ll cry about it for the better reason. I want a million sliders. I don’t want gender locked binary options. Saints Row 2 was all sliders and that game is positively ancient now. Make a toon look however you wanted with whatever hair you wanted. Then you could make them wear whatever you wanted.

    Yeah, oddly one game that kind of hit the mark was Saints Row 2, before the series went 100% silly (only 85% then), but focused on claiming territory with a story-thread that hit the standard triumphs, heists, loss and betrayal beats. Alas for Saints Row.

    What video game changed your life? Saints Row 2 (2008). The game being very customisable in many aspects, especially the character creation allowed me to finally feel like I could live out a world that seemed unreachable to me at the time.
