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!

    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.
