Unexpectedly bad

Gunplay is fun, story is dumb, characters shallow and humour's just gone. Wouldn't call myself a fan of the series, but playing Sam games was always AAAAAAAA blast. Those games never had an intricate story with twists and turns, but enough context was provided for me to care. The BFE was the best in that regard. So I wished they would marry the storytelling of BFE with game and level design of FE and SE. I would prefer no story at all rather than a poor attempt at it. The mood swings are the worst, it is not self aware in artistic sense. Should it be a comedy? A tragedy? A farce? Some political stuff here and there, what else is new?! Gunplay and movement are the best in the series. Unlike the level design. In most cases, there's no landmarks at all. Nothing to really catch the attention. Enemies attack as a blob instead of waves so difficulty is uneven. One moment you are overwhelmed, the other you feel lonely on a vast landscape. Music is fine. Nothing as inspiring as the War song from BFE, but there are some memorable tunes. The sound design is bad. Sounds missing, especially when enemies teleport in. Khnums no longer do "finger snap" before hitting you with those balls and stuff like that. After playing this piece of disaster, I went back and played the BFE, then FE, then SE. The differences were clear immediately. Enemies attack in waves and in manageable numbers. Even under this kind of constant pressure, there's time to think and pick the best tool for the job. To manage ammo, to make some strategical maneuvers. Sounds keep you aware about incoming threats at all times. There's a lot of memorable locations, especially in FE and SE. Those games are surprisingly immersive. Why throw it all out? I would be fine with just more of the same to be honest. And a cherry on top. They take your weapons of mass destruction away before the final level! Where you need them the most! So I didn't even get to use nukes. 4/10 - wait for patches and a serious discount.

Has potential

So, after finishing the game on Normal mode: Pros: Great gunplay, lots of guns, lots of enemies. Feels pretty solid on this level. Plenty of enemy variety, not just reskins but actual thought out attacks. Well detailed models also. No bouncy platforms, or glowing enemies that need glory killing, actual ammo and gun combat! To be fair to the legion system, which may not have been what people were expecting, the end battle actually felt like a real battle. And in other areas there really were a lot of enemies. Cons: The NPCs/story. The story is weak but not important. The NPCs however are really annoying and the game could do without them (or in fact there unecessary social commentary that comes with it). The engine is not optimised. For a 40gb installer, and long load times, you would expect to not see textures going between different resolutions (even in cutscenes). Or being able to walk through 90% of the objects like trees and NPCs. Also noticeable is when viewing a skyscape, the houses and such like are just copy paste across, there isn't a lot of variation or effort put in to making it look nice. The humour has gone. Not once through the game did I crack a smile at any of the dialog. Its all forced and quite lame. The "one-liners" are just bad. Skill system is a total waste of time, if your using melee your already dead, and dual weilding is clunky, i.e. press a button to get second weapon up, then left/right click to fire each. That maybe more pro different weapon but dual weilding was so much simpler and easier in the originals, and with you needing to swap weapons a lot... So if Croteam put some effort into optimising the engine, sorting out some of the visuals and bugs, then it would be a solid base. Personally I would do away with the whole NPC part and the skill points, they really drag the title down. Combat is satisfying though.

Gets old very fast, wait for sale

Even if I´m a fan of old school FPS (like Shadow Warrior, Blood, Doom etc.), I have never been a true fan of the Serious Sam series. Back then, these games were somewhat extraordinary because of their graphics and huge environments, but never because of their gameplay. For me, there were much better games back then. However, I played through the First and Second Encounter. I didn´t like the third part, because it tried to copy games like Call of Duty too much while forgetting most of its origin. Anyway, I gave this one a chance as well. This one now looks more like the old ones and has good gunplay. Still, it´s not really a good game. The level design is so boring and generic; You enter a setting and will just see variations of the same setting over and over again. I big problem for me is that checking the environment carefully mostly is not rewarded! In a good FPS game, you´ll find armour, ammunition and other stuff in almost every corner. Not here. Yes, there are some secrets, but they are not worth mentioning. Another problem is that skill is not enough for this game - you´ll also need a good portion of luck. If you are in the wrong spot and a huge bunch of enemies appears directly in front of you, you might have no chance, even if you are a skilled player. I played on the “difficult” setting and stopped playing at mission 7 because it got so repetitive and boring. I often went low on ammunition, even if I collected everything that was there. This doesn´t suit for this type of gameplay. On the technical side, this game looks like from 2010-2015 while having ridiculously high system requirements. Story wise, the game has nothing to offer, but okay, it´s Serious Sam… I didn´t expect that. There are so many great old school shooters out there, e.g. Ion Fury, Dusk or Amid Evil. For me, Serious Sam 4 is not part of these. If you want good old school gameplay with modern technics and some new ideas, buy Shadow Warrior 2 instead. Or just wait for Shadow Warrior 3.

Fun but needs more polish

With Serious Sam 3 taking too long to become a Serious Sam game and lacking in color, Serious Sam 4 takes those criticisms and starts throwing the horde after you almost right away. There are some odd choices for default settings such as health bars and drab color pallete. You can turn off the health bar and make your crosshair as the health icon like the older games which I recommened you do. Also turning the color pallete to vivid helps with making the world stand out much more with color to make it a little more appealing to look at and slightly closer to Serious Sam 1. Still not as vivid but again closer to what made Sam stand out from the other shooters. The game is much better after the day one patch. However I did enouncter an odd bug when the GOG servers were down and the game wouldn't see any of my save files which were only a couple directories down from the install location (Game supposed to be DRM free right). I was able to load the save file via dragging and dropping the save file onto the exe. Hopefully Croteam fix that bug. All in all, the gunplay is like Serious Sam 3 but better. The level design could use some work to make it easier to move around when avoiding the horde. I prefer to skip all the cutscense so can't give my opinion on it. Load times do take awhile even on an m.2 drive but per pcgamingwiki.com disabling texture streaming may help: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Serious_Sam_4 I am having a lot of fun with the game so I do recommened it to those whole like Serious Sam but I do understand why some people may be dissapointed.

Worst of the Sam games

As a Croat, a huge fan since TFE. TFE/TSE are wonderfull games. SS2 was just ok. SS3 took the Sam in the wrong direction. SS4 looks like an expansion for SS3, that is 7-8 years late. Graphics are good, when they dont glitch, and they glitch a lot. Loading times are like on a 2000. PC, not a modern 8C-16T-CPU/32GB-RAM/1TB-SSD. Crashes a lot, sometimes between loading, once even locket-up my PC, so i needed to log-off to force-close SS4. AI is just stupid, path-finding is even worse than SS3, enemies get stuck, melt together, it just feels rushed and incomplete. Stick with TFE and TSE, and maybe SS2 if you want to try something different SSAM game. Avoid SS3 and SS4 - its not worth it. Would give 0/5, but 1/5 is minimum. Save your 40€ and get TFE and TSE - games that are fun to play.
