    Just to put this out there i don't know if this is where this sort of thread should go because there isn't a Saints Row discussion thread if so please direct me to the right spot.

    One of the things that i'm sure allot of people have scratched their heads at is Earth being blown up now i know the reason is so we were forced to be in the sandbox because the saints need to sabotage the ship from the inside out due to not having the numbers for a stand up fight but story-wise the reason for earth being destroyed is the boss escaped simulation 13(steelport) due to either not believing the threat or completely forgetting about it.

    so the idea is after going to friendly fire just after arriving in modern steelport the boss tells Kinzie to focus on figuring out how to stop this and quietly rescue the rest of the saints instead of helping the boss in fact going as far to say not to keep a connection to the bosses simulation so she can't be tracked from it because the boss is planing on keeping zinyak focused on simulation 13 while Kinzie and the rest of the saints and doesn't want them to be tracked down because of a com signal the end result? the boss is practically alone until the saints are ready for the end boss fight and only knows that they can actually buy stuff from stores with the weird diamond shaped things that stuff they kill drops.

    but yeah that's the basic idea here are the recommendations:
    • This story can start anywhere in the first part the game but it must start before the boss escapes stealport (due to it actually being part of the challenge).
    • The boss is a created character so do what you feel comfortable with just remember if you do go into a backstory they have to be in stillwater for the first game at around 16-19 years old.
    • do not just give the boss powers via kinzie saying"oh hey boss by the way see those blue floating balls yeah go pick them up" have the boss experiment for them be organic in this with curiosity and such.
    optional:
    • the boss actually knows how to hack just not on the level of Kinzie and Matt.
    • Kinzie giving the boss a basic security program(homies) that can use pistols and might survive a bullet or 2 their real job is to give the boss some time to sleep .
    please pm me if you take up this challenge because i know i don't have the writing skill to pull this off

    Pretty sure this would go in the general fic discussion and idea sticky thread rather than have its own thread.
