Crime and Chaos in an Alternate Saints Row 3+ Universe

I wrote a system I want to play. This one is called Crime and Chaos, and is modelled on the notion that if people want to play some approximation of GTA or Saints Row 3-ish on a tabletop, they can take a stab at my game. It can be found on my discord. Ideally I'm looking for about 3-4 people and am open to discussion about what era we play in.

Setting:
  • Saints Row 3 happened
  • Saints Row 4 was a TV show, and Gat out of Hell was a halloween special mini-series. Enter the Dominatrix was softcore porn.
  • Agents of Mayhem was a spin-off from the combined conclusions of both
  • The real "Playa", and his/her highest ranked lieutenants come up missing
  • The characters in this game go to an alliterative city... tentatively called San Angelos. I dunno, something with an S in it.
  • As this is a game that takes place in the Saints Row universe, you can use the character creation tools from Saints Row 3 or 4 to generate what your character looks like.
Sexuality:
  • LGBTQ neutral. I can accept trans and non-heteronormative sexuality and gendered players, but be forewarned I don't do particularly well at writing dick on dick because I'm female centric and I just sort of draw a blank when I try.
  • Given that Saints Row 1 Playa was Male, and Saints Row 2+ was player optional, this game assumes a post op transgender female who was 18 in 2006, and therefore is 32 in the course of this game.
  • Certain NPCs may have opinions I don't. The book is also written in that tone. Characters taking certain Disadvantages practically guarantees it, though I hope it is conveyed and perceived as tasteful or at least in genre where applicable.
  • I have an aversion to anal that is based in medical issues I would have engaging it in real life. The same extends to any sexualization of human waste.
  • I intend on generally not fading to black, but want to respect and observe everyone's offs with the use of spoilers and NSFW marked image links where applicable.
System
  • Uses 2d10+Attribute for the primary resolution mechanic
  • I have a diceroller on my discord I plan to use as for the RNG.
  • Attributes inspired by GTA V Online
  • Uses a point based Advantage and Disadvantage system inspired by Saints Row 3+
  • Tracks advancement through medals like GTA V and Saints Row 4

Per rules: System games require at least 3 players (well, they say 2 and the GM), which I plan to abide by. Since they don't get to decide things that happen off site, it can be logically inferred that abiding by their rules means I'm running it on their site. The end result is that I'm actually ideally looking for 4 players to play here.
 
I don't know how to create a poll for kinks, but the series has established that gimp suits and giant purple dildos are canonical so there's at least some allowable level of sexualization baked into the original games that we as independent players can exceed and still be within reasonably broad boundaries. Ideally the game shouldn't be about the kinks so much as it allows the kinks.

I'm thinking I want the introduction to be having the players Canonized, but after that, it could go two directions when the players are sent to find the Boss from previous games:
  1. Players find the Boss and Crew fairly quickly, but they don't survive the ensuing fight. Players are ducks out of water and must establish control in San Angelos
  2. Players have no idea where to start, must establish control in San Angelos. They fairly quickly figure out where Boss and Crew are held, but realize they need to establish control in the area before considering an attack on the area. Until such control is established, the area is an automatic 5 star area.
 
So I dunno if @GildedDragonfly wanted to be quoted, but:
I think you'd need a GM who would be the type to let the bard and rogue have their own side quest in D&D

Why yes, the idea is literally a whole game of rogues, bards, and perhaps the occasional nun--given the existence of the Bloody Canoness outfit--going off on a quest. It is a perhaps stereotypical quest, and I do plan on having wiggleroom for any number of diversions (or running them as Complex Actions during Downtime, or both). It's a game explicitly for murderhoboing, inspired by a game series where you can find a purple dildo in the police bathroom, and buy a giant version in another franchise's nearest gun store. A game where you can wear a gimp suit and pasties if you want, or even have a streaking diversion. A game where if you get a gold medal for near misses against oncoming traffic, you might actually get some kind of award for it. I expect to lean into the wacky... but really only dial it back from the Saints Row 4 level of wacky. And only because I don't like that there was nothing anyone could do to stop it, so I'm breaking my no-retconning rule expressly for this game.
 
Hey, I'd be super interested in doing this one if you're still looking! Though I'll admit off the bat that i'm not super super experienced with tabletop-based games.

Well, I can guarantee almost immediate response between the hours of about 9 AM to 1 AM CST if you're on the discord, though I tend to prefer not sticking around 12:30 CST if possible. And the files are there.
 
So amusingly, I've been attempting to play this here and on E for a number of years and now there's supposedly a leak that looks suspiciously like this setup (with the exception of attacking the old boss and crew rather than joining them). I'm just bumping this wondering if that "leak" generating any interest?
