I like the time travel idea. No one likes “it was all a dream” endings, so the second one’s out. The way the fourth one was, going back into the history of the Saints and all their relationships and problems, might have been better explored in a time-travel story. So it would be hard to do that again. Good points though.
Eh. They had options. With something as crazy as the Saints Row franchise they dissolve basically done anything.
For example, have the Saints go back in time to prevent the destruction of Earth, overshoot and end up preventing their own founding. The test of the game consists of them trying to prevent themselves from being erased from existence a la Back to the Future.
Or, if you want to dial back the craziness, declare the plot of IV to be a movie the Saints produced, which flopped and somehow ended up bankrupting Ultor.

that would be fun, traveling through different eras, or like hickmans comics you can have a new world made in one dudes image that they eventually get rid of to restore reality to how it was, could even just go forward to go backwards like futurama, I enjoyed the saints row superhero and scifi stuff.
