Okay... maybe I'm being to unclear, let me try this again.​
Final warning, this bickering stops now. No more senseless arguing over your personal issues with each other. Take that shit to DMs or beef on twitter or whatever, but keep it out of this forum. No one cares.

This thread is an eulogy to the studio that made these games closing down, not you two's stage to drag each other in an endless back and forth over twitter drama from 8 months ago.

I'm sorry you both have been wronged in the past, I really am, but this forum is done being your platform.
Talk shit here again, and I'll have you banned on sight.​

So I don’t suppose anyone has heard anything about any other company being willing to pick up the Saints Row mantle?

I know there were plans to NOT put out another Saints Row in the immediate future.

Would be up to DeepSilver to assign a studio. I predict a clusterfuck, just look at Dead Island's 2 development history.

I'm not 100% sure Embracer will let DeepSilver anywhere near Saints Row. The original plan was for Gearbox to assume management of Volition and presumably the IP, presumably because of the results of DeepSilver managing the two.

Standard development practice is for the IP to sit in hibernation until public fatigue wears off; you're more likely to see a Red Faction reboot before another Saints Row.
 
It is sad news, as SR's 2-4 were so pivotal for me when I was still getting my bearings in life.

I had hopes for the reboot, that eventually it was gonna take these college nobodies and turn them into proper criminals, but the plot kinda went nowhere on that and sadly the DLC's did not either (and even I could tell the overhauls were a desperate last gasp).

And I feel even more bad for the late IdolNinja, who seemed to have hopes for the reboot himself, along with passionately working on the remaster of 2 until he no longer could.

It's just a tragedy.

I just hope his work on the SR2 project was not in vein, he could have spent his final time on this Earth doing absolutely anything, and he chose to put it all into fixing SR2... It would be a shame if no one finished his project for him.

I heard about that and I have a feeling that's what made it easy for Embracer to pull the plug. Unwilling to risk another flop with a new IP like AoM when an established IP like SR would perform better.

Interesting, I thought the IP was staying with DS while only Volition was moved to Gearbox.

Another way to think about it (yay capitalism) is that the decision to not make another SR was driven solely by the successes of AOM and SR5; I learned the hard way that the feelings corporations have are guided almost exclusively by money.

We're in highly subjective territory at this point, since where the IP goes is probably splitting hairs due to the fact Embracer consumed Koch Media as a financial entity... just like Volition ceased to exist when THQ bought it in 2000ish
