Saints Row: The Third/Headscratchers

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


When Killbane attacks you at the beginning of Act 2, Shaundi says "What he did to Johnny's funeral, yadda yada yada." But we never see a funeral, and that was the first contact they had with him. What?

  • If you blew up the Syndicate building Boss will say they're going back for Gat's funeral. Watch the bridge cut scene again and you'll see one of the vehicles is a purple hearse which Killbane blows off the road. Sparing the building doesn't mention the funeral, making it a little ambiguous.
    • Ah okay, yeah I saved the building so I didn't get that text.
  • Why does everyone assume Kia was acting on her own accord in the final mission, and that Cyrus and S.T.A.G. had nothing to do with it? There were S.T.A.G. soldiers all over the statue. There was no way what Kia was doing could be concealed from all of them, and the fact that so many of them sat by and watched, and tried to help Kia is about all the evidence you need to realize that either A: S.T.A.G. is just as evil as the Saints could ever be. Or B: That Cyrus is a lousy commander who can't even keep track of the people closest to him to keep them in line. And considering how willing Cyrus was to bombard Steelport into rubble the former is far more likely.
    • If you don't go kill Kia, Cyrus admonishes you for blowing up the monument. When the boss says it was all Kia, Cyrus doesn't believe him. Since there's no cameras or anything nearby, there's no reason for him to lie. If he knew, he probably wold have been like "Now that we framed you we can use our full might."
