    Великолепная игра, именно такая, какой она и должна быть, за вычетом багов. Сэм ровно такой же, каким был двадцать лет назад - мясной, немного аляповатый, с глупыми сортирными шутками и тоннами пафоса. Эта игра делалась не для всех, и зайдёт далеко не всем.

Почти наверняка современному зумеру эта игра покажется неинтересной, поскольку тут нет супер графона, нет "Глубокого проработанного сюжета" и прочего, что любит молодое поколение. Зато здесь есть здоровый прямоходящий, мать его, робот! В общем, если Вы фанат первой части, думаю, четвёртая должна Вам понравиться. Если же нет, ну... Эта игра не для всех. Ещё кое что, ставлю десятку игре не потому, что она действительно "О господи, это ШЕДЕВР 10 ИЗ 10", а потому, что в скором времени наверняка налетит множество зумеров, которые попробуют занизить рейтинг игры. Объективная оценка для ценителей Сэма - 7-8 баллов. Для остальных... Да хрен его знает. Expand

    Unfortunately, it's lacks the awesome enemy corridors from previous iterations, which is what I was looking forward to the most, but it kind of makes up for it by creating even more enemy variety than before, and mixing it up nicely to make the battles slightly different each time. Still, I miss the days of standing at the end of a "hallway" and mowing down thousands of enemies allUnfortunately, it's lacks the awesome enemy corridors from previous iterations, which is what I was looking forward to the most, but it kind of makes up for it by creating even more enemy variety than before, and mixing it up nicely to make the battles slightly different each time. Still, I miss the days of standing at the end of a "hallway" and mowing down thousands of enemies all charging at you. That's not to say the battles aren't big, just not as big as I was hoping for. I assume they did this as a trade off for better graphics, which I'm not certain was a worthwhile trade.

    TLDR: Fun, particularly if you're a Sam Fan, but I'd recommend Serious Sam 3 over this.

    a game for fans, in it the drawbacks of the 3rd part slowing down the gameplay are corrected, and the game fully met my expectations, people who love jerks with towers, sorry that there is no grind here. The best part of the series since the second encounter.About optimization, I play on the old rx480 4gb goes to 100+ fps, with quite pleasant graphics.

    The game gives everything that I love this series for. And even more. It's fast, it's fun. A great continuation of a great series. Thanks to Croteam and Devolver!!! It's nice to know that someone still knows how to make great shooters.

    I love the new additions from the environments to the new enemies. The new health bars, gadgets, and S.A.M are received well. The other characters are likable, but can get annoying because of the lack of voice lines during combat. But Sam brings it around with FANTASTIC one-liners that cannot help but bring a smile to my face!

    I hate running backwards! Seriously, this is a huge improvement compared to the previous parts of the series.

    This game is absolute trash, there is not optimization, no graphic. This game has a tons of bugs, terrible melee kills animations, loading textures during cut scenes. Yes this game has a lot of enemies, but they all dumb as hell. I definitely not recommend this game, at least now, wait for a year Croteam will fix all bugs and only after that you can buy it.

    Pretty much what I expected. I'm sorry for the people who expected an EA-like 80€ cashgrab with microtransactions :(

    This is a game that can only be described with the word "Yikes!". The optimisation is bad the gameplay is bad the story, oh the story its atrocious. If you want to experience the feeling that this game gives you for free try pulling your toe nail with a pair of pliers.

    Sam lost the last remains of creativity. The result is an ordinary megalomaniacal action with a charismatic protagonist who faces endless hordes of monsters. Shooting is fun, the rest is dusty gray. [Issue#307]

    Serious Sam remained true to its legacy and therefore is charmingly archaic – which is not a flaw in this case. It’s easy to point out that side missions are uninspired and fail to provide the diversity they were supposed to introduce, or question the quality of graphics and optimization, but it’s not really that important when burying enemies under piles of bullets is so much fun.

    Croteam has yet to surpass its first two Serious Sam games, with Serious Sam 4 basically being one more entry; one that is great fun, but far from an evolution of the series. The flaws are aplenty, although they are rarely very serious (pun not intended), making this fourthquel more disappointing than bad - because, make no mistake, this is very good. Sure, it's not the best Serious Sam game… but still a Serious Sam game. Fans of serious action will understand.
