SPOILERS So, regarding the good ending and the next story DLC...

So, at the end of Act One, Earth gets nuked with Viola, Josh, Oleg, Angel, Zimos? (Haven't played EtD but I know he's on the roster, would someone who has please clarify whether or not he survived, or if EtD is even canon or just a really convoluted director's commentary?) and anyone else I've missed supposedly still on it, but we aren't actually focused on *them* when the planet explodes, so we have to assume they died. We also know that the Saints (assuming the good ending is the canon one, like in TT) get time travel after defeating Zinyak, and have a good romp with it if you payed attention to the artwork in the credits. My question is, why don't the Saints use this to go back in time right before Earth goes bang to save them? This wouldn't interfere with the existing plotline as we never actually saw them die, and the Saints would naturally assume they died in the explosion like we (the players) did, and thus not create a plothole with the tension that the deaths of these homies caused. It wouldn't be possible to save all of humanity without creating plotholes as you'd see 1,000,000,000 ships storm the planet right at that moment, and if the Boss really is a true psychopath they probably don't care. It would be a neat and tidy way to retcon the deaths, like Gat's was, and bring back some characters the SR4 playerbase will recognize (assuming a large chunk only played SR3 prior, as I did when I initially played the game, recently picked up SR 2 in the DS sale week) for the Saints Save X-Mas. Like a big happy family holiday reunion. Kind of.

This is also considering exclusively story limitations, not development issues like getting the voice actors, or already having too much of the story (or development, potentially) done to work in the old homies.

Also, woo first thread :D Haven't posted much yet, but I've been lurking for a while now.

ETD is not canon, we do get some new people to call but they were not actually in the real game.

I would say they are the same thing as classic Shaundi, computer AI.
 
tbh... i doubt the christmas dlc will be canon either. i mean.. im thinking its gonna be saints rows parody of christmas specials, which, is exciting as all hell.

if they are gonna do it, im thinking the snowmen will be killer robots, elves are sex slaves, and santa clause is an alien pimp with the sleigh being pulled by gimps or furries (and one in the front with a red nose, of course), a gun that shoots fruitcake, a dubstep gun that plays christmas carols, new outfits to deck the zins halls with, and steelport in the wintertime decorated with a purple christmas tree.... the possibilities with this one! :D

...this christmas is gonna rock. for sure.
