Rough...Very, Very Rough
I'm a big fan of the First Encounter, Second Encounter & Serious Sam 2. This installment lacks character & I suspect effort as well. It only partially feels like a Serious Sam game. I'll keep this brief: * The map design is terrible: SS maps have always been somewhat large. Here, they are large & very empty. Areas that you think you might find a secret are just baron. And I mean baron; devoid of life. This is supposed to be earth. Some areas you can clearly see they dropped the framework for an area & forgot the detailing. * The cut scenes & voice acting are garbage. The director didn't know if they wanted Sam to be some wanna-be Call Of Duty tough guy or the crazy Sam we all know. He ends up being terrible at trying to be both. Also, in stark contrast to the early installments: I never laughed once during my playthrough. * The gun play is almost perfect. A lot of the originals are here. They introduced a reload mechanic, which for me, coming from the first 3, I wasn't impressed. The assault rifle only made me miss the tommy gun. * The gadgets are just there. I hardly needed them. They feel tacked on to add "complexity". * The secrets are trash: Ammo or armor. Where are the easter eggs? * The modern interpretations of the classic mobs were cool to see. Enemy design I can't really fault. They're modelled well. * Boss fights are garbage. Again, complexity for the sake of it. I feel TSE's final boss is much harder & yet more enjoyable. * The music is really well written but while playing this, my wife said to me "That doesn't sound like Serious Sam". A lot of it just doesn't suit the game. Something went very wrong with this games development. I walk away from this one feeling very disappointed. I sincerely hope Croteam doesn't keep flogging this horse - it's already dead.
