SERIOUS SAM 4 OPEN WORLD UPGRADE

This sidequest and open world system really was a great addition to this game. The open world actually works really well because sidequests can have cutscenes and fun little stories to them AND you are always rewarded with something that's really going to help you with tough fights, you never just get rewarded with ammo or health, there's always some cool rare item which you can find, mind you these kinds of things didn't even exist in the previous games. I actually wouldn't mind even more of them. Vehicles of different kinds to help you get through places, they're actually kind of satisfying to use. I was thinking to think that the open world would be an absolute hassle to get through but thankfully there are I really liked the open world aspect, it actually worked really well with Serious Sam. The game can run quite good with a lot of enemies at the screen at the same time at times and others times run horrible, it's just something you're going to have to live with, but it shouldn't be acceptable of course. There's no low, medium or high graphics, there's just tons of sliders on a bunch of graphics settings you have no idea what they mean that you have to figure out and set them all individually to the correct slider. The graphics settings are WAY too complicated for a singe game like this, the graphics settings in games in my opinion should be simple to understand and a grandma should be able to be able to figure them out. Talking about freezing, the game has horrible performance. It gets infuriating, it also freezes every time it does that.

All characters move extremely stiff and every time the camera changes camera angle all models load in again making them look like really ugly claymation characters for a bunch of seconds.

The cutscenes in this game are truly awful, but at least they're there which I can appreciate, but to be honest, perhaps they would be better off without having any of them. The only good looking model in my opinion is Serious Sam himself. The models of characters are also extremely ugly, the lip sync is awful at that point.

The graphics are extremely mediocre and really feels like a lot of the games are free assets. The cool weapon upgrades in the beginning. Though I think these sidequests did it wrong by without spoiling it not adding a lot of randomization.

SERIOUS SAM 4 OPEN WORLD UPGRADE

The sidequests were really cool, if you complete a sidequest you could get an upgrade to your weapon (which is also visual) or you could get a one time use gadget which is really powerful which spans from nukes, holo-decoys, support drones, black hole bombs and more.

No one likes getting stressed in the middle of a firefight getting stressed on trying to pick a specific weapon. The new weapon wheel was a great addition and really made the flow of the game better. The weapons are all very useful and satisfying to use. Some enemies are very satisfying to fight meanwhile some others ( like ALL flying enemies ) are not very satisfying at all. It's just simple fun shooting with tons of weapons and enemies where your main way of winning is to figure out what kind of weapons work best against what kinds of enemies. Is it bad that I enjoyed this more then Elden Ring?
