I recently started my first Serious Sam game and I am super excited! I’ve been craving a bulletstormy mindless shooter, and I thought that that was what Serious Sam goes for. So I started it up last night and went with normal. Almost immediately I found myself having to conserve ammo, aim carefully, and watch my health. I died after the first group of enemies. I reloaded, moved more carefully, and made a decent dent in the level before dieing several more times.
I started googling and found out I was entirely wrong about Sam, its a game meant to challenge and force you to think about enemy spawns and weapon choice. It is not at all the game I was expecting but it is a ton of fun and I reccomend it to anyone looking for a fun challenging shooter!
Which Serious Sam are we talking about here? I usually play Serious Sam 3 BFE and there is plenty of “OMFGwheredidtheyallcamefromeatleaddemonspawn” moments.
Siberian Mayhem becuase it got put on game pass, but I know there are a bunch of others.
And yeah I’ve had like 6 huge ones break through a wall and give me a heart attack. I’ve definitely learned the value if running.
Weirdly I prefer it to the first and second episodes. I wish they would make a sequel, tough I don’t mind them focusing on their newer IP, The Talos Principle.
