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!

    Seems like you would love DOOM Eternal, but first play DOOM 2016 if you want to follow the lore. But most doom players don’t really care about that. Still the game’s soundtrack is awesome. I recommend you play both if not already.

      I’ve played both and love both, but I would say normal on those games is much easier than normal on Sam. Not sure how the higher difficulties match up.

        I think the higher difficulties on doom are not skill based where the higher difficulties on serious Sam are more knowing the map/mechanics.
