I've been hoping for a grounded reboot since the third game. SR2 had my favorite story in the series. I didn't need to see the gang turn into an empire.
Just give me a found family story about goofy assholes turned ride or die comrades fighting other gangs and maybe a corrupt local law enforcement agency or something. I don't need futuristic fighter jets or superpowers, just solid gameplay, fun good guys and bad guys, and a good sense of progression that ends with the Saints being capable but not ridiculously overpowered.
The 3rd one never took itself seriously. They knew it was a last hurrah and went over the top intentionally. There's a dubstep gun ffs. They were there for the ride not storytelling.
