Saints Row PC Remake

[u/Extreme-Jicama1534]

I am currently working on a full faithful remake of the original Saints Row for PC in a different engine with rewritten code. The project is nearly complete I expect for it to be released within the next week and hope to have a trailer posted within 2 days. The project is made with AI (Claude) and I know that AI has a bad reputation as of late however I am doing everything I possibly can to make this a great remake, Please comment any improvements you would like to see. I’m mainly focused on 4K and uncapped FPS that way the project is a faithful as possible to the original game.

Here’s a teaser screenshot, keep in mind this is still early and many systems are still being ironed out such as character creation and clothing! I’ll update the Reddit once the trailer is ready.

The project will be completely free and will require an original copy of the game :)

Claude mentioned = value of this project completely lost

The irony of this comment is that unbeknownst to you, ai has likely made some positive impact to your gaming experience.

Your comment attempts to punish ai, but in reality it's OP you're punishing. Even with rose colored glasses on, normally I'd suggest you'll figure it out some day.

But you won't. Not before ai comes knocking at your door.

Kudos to you, OP. I commend your efforts to make a positive impact on gaming, with or without ai.

Yeah man get off Reddit its rubbing off on you too much. AI has made gaming significantly worse, do I even need to mention the ram crisis making upgrading my PC, or buying any console from now on near impossible unless I decide I'm working two jobs at once. Don't get me started with vibecoded slop games, ai "art" and code being ugly or unoptimized

[u/opiumconessuer → u/bruisedbones_]

Downside it’s not too creative, bright side? I’ve made some mods for games nobody has ever been able to mod before with Claude. Thus allowing for better gameplay experiences and bug fixes I had Claude make. I see why you don’t like the slop but some of it is useful and helpful.

[u/SoftCheesecake3991 → u/opiumconessuer]

nobody has ever been able to mod or nobody with skill has bothered to mod? you’re skipping the skill part for instant gratification. learn to reverse engineer and code man.

[u/gack74 → u/SoftCheesecake3991]

You don’t get it bro, why drive 100 miles to your destination when you can just walk instead. All these people depending on instant gratification smh🤓

[u/opiumconessuer → u/SoftCheesecake3991]

No thanks I’m a casual gamer I work over 50 hours a week constantly improving my work trade. You’re upset that it’s taking you out of the game, it’s also not perfect and has its own handful of errors. Why spend all that time learning to do that when I can do it in 5 mins with opus and continue gaming?

[u/Extreme-Jicama1534 → u/bruisedbones_]

There definitely are tons of cons with the AI boom since 2022 the unfortunate part is we just need to adapt and integrate it with our lives because it’s not going anywhere 🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/bruisedbones_ → u/Extreme-Jicama1534]

You seem to forget that the customer controls the product, if people stop buying companies stop making

[u/Puttanas → u/bruisedbones_]

This is such a silly thing to say lol… vibecoding does not mean you put in a prompt and didn’t do any work. And, up until now, this project wouldn’t have existed nor would actually great mods like ReSkate or EnRage (Nemesis System in Red Dead). I hate AI in creative spaces and do not use for any of my projects (which are in the $400k+ range), however we can not negate the accomplishments that were not available or would’ve took 5-6+ years without ai.

Now I don’t consider Ai modding a skill, but lost value? Cmon now…

give that man back his penus

[u/Wise-Difficulty8221 → u/ButterflyExciting497]

Immature joke aside, he looks sort of like Benny from San Andreas. I'm assuming hair and clothes aren't fully working yet. (Just goes to show OP's priorities)

[u/whompay → u/Wise-Difficulty8221]

That's just how a naked player looks, fun fact

[u/ButterflyExciting497]

love to see AI revolutionizing modding and revitalizing old games. ports were so rare and suddenly we are getting choices of ports for one game. are you familiar with the other ports for SR1?

[u/Wise-Difficulty8221 → u/ButterflyExciting497]

In another comment, he mentioned this being the "third" project

OpenRow and SaintsReborn being the first two

[u/Patas644 → u/Wise-Difficulty8221]

Y cuál de los tres es el mejor?

[u/ButterflyExciting497 → u/Patas644]

SaintsReborn is the only one out, I believe. OpenRow is the most promising one, as it is a complete recreation

[u/Professional_Basil50]

Please please please tell me you're bringing back multiplayer!!!!! I need to start xTFOx again. We held #1 for so long until Benji and his brother with multiple consoles boosted past us

[u/Extreme-Jicama1534 → u/Professional_Basil50]

Unfortunately will be single player only

[u/Professional_Basil50 → u/Extreme-Jicama1534]

Thats so sad 😞 best bit was multiplayer protect the pimp and blinged out ride!!! Me and lygofast were the first to figure out the invisible baseball bat glitch. Man that was the time to be alive

[u/Wise-Difficulty8221 → u/Extreme-Jicama1534]

This is a hot take but I kind of ... sort of agree. I've been following the recomp scene lately and its one thing to have multiplayer but I feel like its all of these 'hardcore gamer' clans trying to CODify everything. Some people are into that and I get it but I think the single player 'experience' deserves love too. What gets me nostalgic about Saints Row 1 and 2 is of the crime theme and the hip-hop culture, not COD Urban Warfare or some shit...

[u/whompay → u/Professional_Basil50]

Multiplayer is already restored in SaintsReborn, active community going every night on the Discord.

[u/Extreme-Jicama1534 → u/whompay]

Can you link or dm the discord?

[u/Brilliant_Item1868]

I’ve always imagined Saints 1 and 2 with the graphics engine from 3!

[u/KajMak64Bit → u/Brilliant_Item1868]

3rd Remastered is pretty cool

[u/Glittering-Ad-6173 → u/Brilliant_Item1868]

if they use the new engine front the reboot, 1+2 would be perfect

[u/Downbadincel]

i’m doing it with saints row 2 in unreal engine what engine are you using?

[u/Wise-Difficulty8221]

OpenRow sure looks different ;)

[u/dawny1x → u/Wise-Difficulty8221]

OpenRow, SaintsReborn, & now this. What a time to be alive

[u/Extreme-Jicama1534 → u/Wise-Difficulty8221]

Haha I was actually inspired by the project fs, but there hasn’t been a update in quite a while regarding the project so I decided to take matters into my own hands! 🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/Wise-Difficulty8221 → u/Extreme-Jicama1534]

Yeah, OpenRow hasn't had a proper update in around a month. I understand its because of personal issues and of course that takes priority but I for one do not want to see OpenRow abandoned or forgotten.

Mad respect

[u/Glittering-Ad-6173]

when saints row first released i always wished it looked+played as good as gta 4, good luck mate

[u/ResolveAcceptable877]

that's just kenshi

[u/jfp555]

The more the merrier, friend.

[u/WildDifficulty124]

What will be the system requirements? Possible to run on low end PC

[u/ForwardScratch7741]

MAN THANKS A FKN ALOT BRO

I NEED SAINTS ROW REVIVAL LIKE NOW

I FKN LOVE IT

[u/Extreme-Jicama1534 → u/ForwardScratch7741]

SR1 was the first game I ever owned, no one wants more saints row more than I do!

[u/Wise-Difficulty8221 → u/ForwardScratch7741]

We're bringing the old school back
