Our new streaming room is coming along; door is on, greenscreen is up, and a whole mess of new gear is getting setup. Just waiting on some delayed furniture to get this party started (tentatively May 2!)
We're not usually involved with ports of our games, but we aren't aware of any current plans for Summoner. Always nice to see some love for our older titles though!
There isn't one. You will be able to save Boss characters in local save slots though. Also, we are not working on the port, which is being done by @DSFishlabs
We appreciate the offer, but it's less about patching the existing game (that ship has long since sailed) but rather offering the pre-Workshop build as an option for players having issues (which won't need community testing.)
We ran into issues with locating the correct build, as well as problems actually testing them on Steam. We're still looking into this and will update the community when we have more info to share.
We aren't involved with developing ports of our games, which are handled by an outside studio. The decision to do them for a platform is also a publisher decision rather than a studio one.
We're still working on getting equipment and furniture setup. It's now looking like May 2 for the launch of Volition Streams 2.0. We'll be posting final details on our social once everything is all set.
We think it's awesome that players still love the older games. We feel like proud parents for each title we ship, and we would love to see every Saints game get that kind of treatment. Unfortunately, there are technical factors, in addition to the commercial considerations.
These kind of decisions are made by the publisher, and the actual work is done by an different studio (like @DSFishlabs on the SR3 Switch port.) We can tell you that Saints Row: The Third was the most commercially successful Saints game and seemed like a smart choice to us.
Sorry to hear that you are having trouble. Unfortunately, we didn't work on the Re-Elected port which was done by High Voltage. We do know the patch cycle for the game is long over though. Deep Silver support may be able to assist: techsupport@deepsilver.com
