As the trailer appeared to be a cinematic, like SRTT, I still don't feel like I've witnessed any real evidence to prove that this is or isn't a game that feels like a classic or new Saints Row.
As for that shoddy bite-sized excuse for a "Gameplay Preview", I'm gonna have to wait for one of those Youtubers to do a frame-by-frame analysis so I can actually figure out WTF is going on.
I've already made a comment on YT for the trailer (now deleted), which basically explains my three points for whether or not I'll be playing this game as often as I play SR & SR2.
1. Player Customization
2. Cribs (Customization optional)
3. Homies
If these 3 features don't return, then I'll play this game once, then NEVER PLAY IT AGAIN... EVER!!!
So if anyone happens to know if these 3 features are available, I would love to know.
Edit:
Just went back and read some past comments.
The Boss is customizable!

Hopes slowly being restored.

Admixon: Well the homies are confirmed too
2 out of 3
I'll be honest... Those were my main two of the 3.
From this point on, the other two gangs could be space cowboys with cyber lassos for all I care.
The game looks awesome. The characters look awesome. The story seems intriguing.
Let's face it, the Saints we knew, their story went as far as it could.
From a street gang, to celebrities, to the Whitehouse, to an alien empire, and even to beating the Devil himself.
It's time for a fresh start, and I welcome the new Saints with open arms.
Edit:
I don't know why so many people hate Kevin, I think he's awesome. He almost feels like a Gat-Genki hybrid.
