serious sam 5 when?
hopefully nevercroteam is washed
What would Steven Universes biggest threat be, sharp corners?
>>724623068a single atom of testosterone
>>724623032>washedZoom zoom
>>724623032Croteam is woke now. Hope they go out of business. Bums.t. Croat
Who's worse: Running With Scissor or Croteam?
>>724623812Croteam made Talos Principle. RWS made fucking shite.
>>724623000>Serious Sam>turns around 360 and walks away
Remember in darkest dungeon there's some evil being hatching in the earth's core threatening to destroy everyone on earth? Same thing was in steven universe and steven talked it out and they are friends now
you niggers never watched the show and it's evident, stevo has killed people
>>724623000>wanting Serious Sam when Croteam switched to fucking UE5
>>724624270Didn't they do Talos 2 on UE? How was it?
I watched a few Steven Universe episodes and I could never get past over the MC wearing flipflops, and being fat, ans having that terrible afro.
>>724623167but testosterone is a molecule...
>>724624230Yes, but they were BAD people who wanted things like equality and freedom and to do away with slavery. Fuck those people. It's okay, tho. He eventually brought them back and brainwashed them so that they're fine with all the enslaving and horrific gem experimenting going on.Did they ever dismantle that human zoo they had, or is that still just sitting out there with everybody in a giant cage?
>>724623000Croteam dropped their engine in favor of UE5 so hopefully never.
>>724623000I'll only be excited for it if they confirm the Timelock devs are working on it and not Croteam. It's laughable how incompetent Croteam is at making a Serious Sam game. TFE and TSE were a fluke.
>>724624293>How was it?"LOL,UE5"-ish with all the staples like ghosting and awkward lighting, asset store aesthetics, and bloated drive usage where they for example used like 20GB for 15 minutes of video footage that could've been rendered in-engine (even the main menu background is 300MB in size and with the DLC that quadrupled to 1.2GB - FOR THE FUCKING MAIN MENU BACKGROUND).
>>724624503Steven would bubble him
>>724624293It was very pretty and the performance didn't bother me since I have a beefy system. Talos 1 looked butt ugly in UE though and I have no desire to replay it like that.
>>724623000>That one fandomwikia autist that ideaguyed an entire ASSFAGGOTS series(Aeon Clash/Crash) made by Croteam.
>>724624524SS4 was absolute kino if you put aside horrendous performance.
>>724624554not the biggest marine fan but don't they have all sorts of heavy bullshit and psychic might to break free, or at least some have more than others? Steven usually just bubbles little gems and it's always implied that shit is weak compared to his stupid captain America strawberry flavored shield
>>724624614It was a slow burn, but it did pick up the pace at the latter part of the game. Shame most of the tech staff left to work construction in Germany
I've literally never even installed a single one.Give me a play order or recommendation.
>>724624674Skip fusion and HD remasters. Start from First encounter. Save spinoffs for last
Whatever happened to Croatia? Why didn't we ever get our own CD Projekt Red?t.Croat
>>724623000Tell me about Steven! Why does he shed the tears?
In theory couldn't they try what RWS did with that one Postal 2 expansion released 12 years later and finish The Third Encounter on the original Serious engine with the help of a few modders? The maps and puzzles were mostly finished beyond missing enemy and item spawns iirc
i remember my mom buying me next encounter on christmass because she thought its some wacky jackie chan game, i got it at my grandparents house and to her shock, it wasnt jackie chan, best mistake she ever done after me, i played this shit countless times with my lil brother
>>7246246742 is the best, but also play 1st classic and 2nd classic because i said so
>>724624674The other anon is trolling.unless you like oldschool shooters, just start with HD First Encounter
>>724624835>finish The Third Encounter on the original Serious engine with the help of a few modders? The maps and puzzles were mostly finished beyond missing enemy and item spawns iircwhat?
>>724624674Ignore what >>724624714 and >>724624868 said.Play both HD encounters, skip Revo and Fusion.Play 2. Or wait a few weeks for the Crochads to add steam achievements if you care about that.Follow through with 3 anad then consider playing 4 and SM.
>>724624674Can't go wrong with Classic First encounter. Runs ok out of the box but I suggest using the Classics Patch
>>724624891OG>>>>>>>>>HDThis is the hill I am willing to die on
>>724623000>serious sam 5It's going to be a megabonk-like
>>724624883Before Serious Sam 2 Croteam was working on The Third Encounter, shelving it in favor of making a bigger budget game on a newer engine. They returned to the idea during the HD era but cancelled it again. Unlike Serious Sam 3 it would've concluded the story, so that might be why they avoided ever finishing it
>>724624994Where can I read more about this?
>>724624960You're a fucking retard.>bro just play this horribly outdated game running on a engine that refuses to work properly since windows 7 with no real support for modern hardware BECAUSE I SAY SO!>NO DONT PLAY THE OBJECTIVELY BETTER EXTREMELY FAITHFUL REMAKE IN THE UPDATED 64BIT ENGINE>REEEEEEEEEE I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL LIKE THE RETARD I AM!
>>724624293TP1 is 5gbTP2 is 75gb
>>724625046First of all, you're a nigger.Second, vanilla engine runs surprisingly smooth and stable even on modern hardware.Third, I prefer the OG visualsFourth, you're a nigger
>>724625115>opinion, opinion, opinion, final opinion
>>724625239Classics working well is a factYou being a nigger is factMy superior tastes are an opinion
>>724625115>>724625046Doesn't remake cut some stage set pieces
>>724625329IIRC there are some changes to encounters in Fusion, but can't remember if it also applies to HD
>>724625027Here's a video from the HD era prototype https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvZBqXiSseQIf you look into the alpha of the original you can see which maps went into TFE and TSE respectively, leaving an entire third category of forever unused maps (excluding the multiplayer levels and secret levels)I think there's a mod for the original that polishes the Third Encounter levels into something playable but I haven't tried it myself. Unfortunately the only big Serious Sam forum shutdown and migrated to a Discord I can't be bothered joining, but you could find more there I assume. >>724625046>remove the cool gravity sections because fuck you>makes the game uglier and grittier because xbox 360 standards and croteam's fear of making anything cartoony after SS2's reception>kleers are even worse to fight than in the original, gliding around everywhere after pouncingJust play the original with Classics Patch, please.
>>724625541Don't listen to this subhuman, you will sorely regret halfway through the game that you're not playing the HD remasters.
>check first encounter hd reviews>pic relatedwhat did he mean by this?
>>724625859probably a srbinmany such cases
>>724625859I don't care that these types of reviews are allowed on steam but aren't video games the only medium where you can see this? Like scathing reviews on the official page for the product? Of course there are plenty of youtube videos calling movies and tv shows pieces of shit but you don't go on Netflix to watch a show and see "man the HBO producers probably touch kids I bet harvey weinstein is the least offensive person in hollywood" right below it
>>724626001google confirmation bias
>>724623000It's Talos from here on out, and that's a good thing.
>>724624567I played 2 first, and tried the original version of 1. It was trippy and weird in motion, so I switched to Reawakened, which feels more comfortable.>>724624293I love 2 so fucking much.
>>724628308>It's Talos from here on outlol,nohttps://tom-jubert.blogspot.com/2023/12/2023-update.html>Talos 2 did great critically and I fear abysmally commercially.
>>724623000I gave Croteam about $25 dollarydoos this sale which should be enough to fund their next project
>>724628394ruffles, yes
>>724623000Why would you want that? Everything after the second encounter is trash
>>724628702baaaase- AAAAAAAAACKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!
>>724623167Greg was that atom and then some. Dude fucked an alien leader into changing her entire world view.
serious sam 4 was buggy and ran like shit at launch with dialogue that made me wanna die. didn't play it. never tried siberian mayhem though i heard it improved things
>>724623858You take that back, Brain Damaged was good. Wait shit that wasn't made by RWS.
>>724629689SM is three and a half levels of the best shit in the series and one and a half levels of "we didn't learn anything from 4".
>>724624674HD versions are fine. Lesser in a few places, prettier in others, but fine.2 has a bunch of weird decisions, with more weird options patched in recently. Decent entry, might be unpalatable for certain stylistic or gameplay reasons.BFE is a pretty bad game with some redeeming qualities. Play only through Fusion, that version is tuned and expanded for the better. Maybe slap some redux campaign mod if you are unsatisfied, but still invested at this point.Double D and Random Encounter are spinoffs, didn't play.
>>724629850I tried HD version and it's bugged as fuck. Monster randomly don't fall from above and get stuck in the air
>>724624408What are you even talking about man
>>724629929I've seen occasional wonky collision and AI, but nothing chronic.
>>724630086nvm, just googled it. Happens when fps is above 120fps
>>724629803That's disappointing. More good than shit from what it sounds like, but still disappointing.
>>724623000Croteam is full of new croats(jeets) now, ITS OVER
>>724629689i played it and gave up halfway throughi couldn't find much fun with the game
>>724630250It doesn't get as bad as 4 and still has tons of good parts like great eastereggs but the NPC companions that were already disliked in 4 and the often mindless chaos that boils down to "just hold down the fire button and watch legions of grunt enemies explode" detracts from the rest and basically turns what was like a 9/10 up to this point into a 6 or 5.
>>724623000That image is incorrect.You actually hold S and A/D.Also check'd
>>724631012this anon beat serious difficulty
>>724623000My girlfriend made me watch that whole shit. It's hard to pretend to enjoy that crap. That's how much I love her.
>>724623254>Croteam is woke nowWhat'd they do?
>>724631461they mildly annoyed me
>>724631197>love>not being honest*tsk*
>>724632029How so?The only annoying thing I can think of was them dropping Serious Engine for UE5, but that's not woke.
>>724632127Yeah this was my dilemma, but I enjoy seeing her happy and explaining stuff
>>7246296894's last level was turbo kino, rest of the game not so much.
>>724624843based
>>724623167two penises
>>724623000I want that SS2 remake first.
