Saints Row 2022 took a very different direction than all of the previous games combined, and it wasn't a direction the die-hard fans of the series liked for the most part.

The same thing is gonna happen with the always-online likely DRM-filled freemium Skate 3 sequel called Skate. I can see that one end up flopping and that might kill off the series, and that makes me really sad. It makes me even more sad because it's the first Skate game in the series actually coming to the PC, and they're almost guaranteed to fuck it up. Corporate greed is killing gaming, modern gaming is shit for the most part.
