Även om Volition hade höga ambitioner för nya Saints Row, är det nog få som protesterar mot påståendet att inte riktigt fungerade. Försäljningssiffrorna är fortfarande inte presenterade (i sig ett dåligt tecken) och kritiken från både media och spelare har varit hård. Embracers VD Lars Wingefors har nu kommenterat detta.
Wingefors talade nyligen på Embracers bolagsstämma och antydde att seriens framtid nu är uppe för diskussion efter den "polariserande" lanseringen av det senaste kapitlet:
"Personally, I had hoped for a greater reception to the game. It's been very polarizing. There are a lot of things that could be said in detail around it, but I'm with one hand happy to see lots of gamers and fans happy, and at the same time I'm a bit sad to also see fans not happy, so it's difficult. I think we need to wait for the quarterly report in November to have more details around this. We're still fairly early in our release window and still collecting data, and there is also bug fixing and more content coming. On the financial side, I know, or I'm confident we will make money on the investment. Would it have as great a return on investment as we have seen in many other games? Not very likely, but we will make money, and that's a very good starting point at least.
