How Saints Row IV is the Answer to Sexism in Gaming

Anthony Accinelli writes, "aints Row IV was the last place in the world I expected to find the solution to sexism in gaming. After all, who honestly thought a game about shooting aliens as the President would be so aware of gender equality?

I certainly know I didn't. And I highly doubt you did.

Volition games has eliminated all gender inequalities in Saints Row IV through one simple convention: no boundaries based on sex."

Currently playing as a chick with Nolan North voice, wearing a hoody with no underwear. Love this game.

Yeah this game is whack, my lady also doesn't wear pants,gives me a boner every tim, waiting for no cenzorship mod.I kind of noticed this today when playing SR4 that it's not sexist at all I'm playing as a naked chick and nobody wants to rape her but me.

That's wonderful. Virtual reality has transcended gender.

Unfortunately for femnazis and self loathing white beta males, here in reality men are superior to women, and it's gonna take a hell of alot of bio engineering to change that.

The trophy to switch to a girl in SR3 was the first time i ever remebmer being a girl in a game given the option. After about 5 minutes I realised it was freakin awesome & have used her since.

Volition's Saints Row 4 PC upgrade was meant to be a make-good, but it broke the game instead

Remember this year's Saints Row(opens in new tab)? Volition would probably prefer that you didn't, which might go some way to explaining why the studio recently decided to upgrade everyone's copy of Saints Row 4(opens in new tab) to its full-fat Re-elected Edition, containing all the game's story and cosmetic DLC and even introducing cross-play between Steam, Epic, and GOG versions of the game.

Unfortunately, that upgrade seems to have backfired, and players now report a myriad of bugs with their new version of SR4. Both the Saints Row Steam forums(opens in new tab) and subreddit(opens in new tab) are filled with players complaining of broken saves, crashes, and mods failing to function. It's also received a few hundred negative Steam reviews(opens in new tab) since the update. If it's succeeded in washing the taste of Saints Row (2022) out of players' mouths, it's only because it tastes even worse.

I wonder if Volition's getting reorged under Gearbox impacted the quality of their release.

i can't help but laugh at this comment. Gearbox can't even run themselves.
