This isn't a great game, it might not even be the best Serious Sam game or the best boomer-shooter out there. But you know what it is? A really fun game. It never takes itself seriously but it feels epic to play. When the game starts you have a sledgehammer and an infinite ammo Deagle, but in the last level you have a Minigun, a rocket launcher, grenade launcher, a frickin' arm laser and there's something so spectacular about mowing down seemingly never-ending enemy hordes changing weapons constantly, moving fast, all while epic music plays in the background. The first major boss battle, and all of the major boss battles by extension, have the same energy as a Counter-Strike: Source zombie survival map, specifically the ones that are really well done: lots of stuff going on in the screen, spectacular music, loud noises and holding onto the shoot button like your life goes in it. It is really satisfying to kill enemies that were previously bosses like they're small-time as the game goes on.

Tho it isn't flawless by any means and here's where the crappy stuff starts. First off, the level design, at least in visual terms, is pretty forgettable. Most of the environments look the same and sometimes the game throws you in enclosed spaces with enemies clearly made for open areas, and this game has the "7th gen generic military first person shooter" look to it, which by the way is because Croteam was originally working on one of those games, but then scrapped it and reused the assets to make Serious Sam 3. I get that this game wants to make you feel like you're the only hope for the planet and it nails it gameplay-wise, but I just wish that environments were more memorable visually, because what makes them actually memorable are the battles that take place in them. Another thing, enemies. For the most part, they're fine and some work really well, they're basically bullet-sponges, but the main issue is with those hitscan shooting enemies. Yeah, I'm looking at you, frickin' scorpion with a machine gun, who do you think you are. This being one of those games based on movement, specifically strafing, getting hitscan-shot at isn't particularly fun or good when most of the arenas are very open and getting in cover isn't encouraged since the only way to regain health is by finding a medkit somewhere. The game wants you to keep moving and shooting but then there's the damn scorpion with a machine gun shooting at you and draining all your health. The game doesn't seem to know exactly what it wants to be and it ends up damaging the pace and the flow of the combat. I mean, depending on the difficulty you're playing in they may be easier to deal with, but for normal difficulty they're way too intrusive. Besides some enemies that act like this (yeah, there's more than just the machine gun scorpions), every other enemy is really good at giving way to horizontal movement. Small details like the enemy projectiles predicting your next position reward quick reflexes and mechanical knowledge of how the enemies work with the player not getting hurt, and sometimes not getting thrown into the air. Some other enemies, like the spiders and the ancient egyptian zombie monkeys are really whatever, but for the most part, they're perfectly fine.

The plot isn't a memorable one and the writing leaves a lot to be desired (tho some dialogs are pretty awesome), but it feels like a B-Movie game, a B-Game? I'm pretty sure that's just an indie game. Anyways, what I mean is that it has some charm to it. This game truly nails the "army of one against the world" kind of feeling: the planet is desolate and hostile, there's a giant worm that will jump out of the sand to eat you if you venture too far into the dunes, even helicopters have been transformed into aliens, and you are the only one who can put an end to this, you're the only hope for humanity. As said at the start of the review, it isn't going to be the best game ever and it has already been forgotten by the sands of time (pun intended), but it is ultimately a fun ride from start to finish, and if you can bring a buddy to play along with you, there's some couch co-op split-screen action waiting for you (yes, you can play the whole campaign on split-screen, on PC! Up to four players!!!). Also, the underground Egyptian ruins exploration sequences give off a more Indiana Jones vibe than any of the Uncharted games, just sayin'.

The level and encounter design got some SERIOUS upgrades this time! The visual enhancements are also a welcome change, along with fewer outdated game design tropes (though a few are still present).

BFE maintains the series' sense of identity and core gameplay with its fast-paced encounters, but it does a far better job and pacing these encounters between each other. For example, the game sometimes presents subterranean sections where you're forced to move slower and fight jumpy enemies in the dark, relying only on your flashlight to see them. It seems unusual in theory but I think it fits right in.

Much like the First and Second Encounters, it culminates in a gauntlet level leading into its final boss. And I'm happy to say that both the gauntlet and the boss are significantly better than those in the previous games. The boss isn't anything too special, but it has easily the best sense of scale and unique mechanics which are required to beat it.

It's safe to say that, despite numerous flaws, I am now a serious fan of Serious Sam.

A pretty fun, Over the top shooter just like the rest of the series but alot of the cartoonish nature has been removed for a more realistic presentation with Ironsights for guns, manual reloading and sprinting included. making it feel more like a COD ripoff than a Serious Sam game.
It still has plenty of jokes and the amount of enemies they throw at you near the end is ridiculous.
I would recommend this if you enjoy this series or Quake, Wolfenstein and the older DOOM games
but I still think the Original serious sam games are better. Play them first.

Not the best in the franchise, but really not the worse too. Just had a poor start since it was supposed to be a military shooting game developed by Croteam but flopped and all the assets were used for this game, which is not great. Besides that, it's a fun shootout, hot take, but I think this actually has the best gun mechanics (maybe the reloading shouldn't have been included) and feeling of all serious sam games.

Also it clearly has monsters inspired by Doom.

Regarding the "military shooting" theme, the levels are really, really poor in terms of guiding the players to where they have to go. Especially in the start. Because all the copy-pasting done, everything looks repetitive.

Eski Serious Sam tadını yaşatmasa da kabul edilebilir bir oyun olarak sayılabilir. O Vahşet hissi tam olmasa da insanı rahatlatıyor. 2 den sonra gelen o aşırı derecedeki grafik artışına zor alışsam da çok rahatsız etmedi. Oynayın ya o kadar kötü değil. 🥈🅖🅤🅜🅤🅢🥈
