The tree/swamp level was my limit
Stuck on an elevator getting shot by hitscan enemies was not serious

Style was too cartoony.

Worst hitscan enemies in the series.
Jokes mostly suck.
Lots of situations where enemies just keep spawning but without adequate pressure.
That god awful temperature mechanic in the moon episode.
Sirius was the only good episode but you have to slog through the rest of the game to get there.

The game was fucked over by not only being limited by the original xbox but it's short as hell development time.

I played Serious Sam games back when they released when I was a kid. I don't remember why exactly, but I distinctly remember being disappointed by something in SS2 so much that I didn't give it a try. I just thought "damn that's lame and sucks, I don't wanna play it" and now I have no recollection of what it was.

>follow up to the console version of the Encounter games but didn't carry over some of the more interesting mechanics like the combo system
>short levels instead of large ones due to console limitations
>drip-feeds you enemies, also due to console limitations (even the parse error mod capped out at like 30-50 on screen)
>awfully feeling weapons, balance and broken functionality - the uzis and minigun basically use up ammo at the same speed and the shotguns were the strongest weapons in the original release due to insane range and an issue where you could cancel reloading by switching weapons, resulting in a constant stream of shells by just switching between them
>you don't get your full arsenal until the very end and weapons like the grenade launcher are barely in it
>(immortal) NPCs just don't belong into the series - if 2 didn't hammer it home then 4 and SM did
>vehicles were overpowered
>tons of enemy types but a lot were just reskins like the kung-fu demons basically being just Kleers and the clowns shitty kamikazes
>"secrets" are often in plain sight
>depending on your taste, the fucktarded humor can get on your nerves after a while

but the worst of all
>DIFFICULTY LEVELS FUCK AROUND WITH HP VALUES

That last fight is so good man
there was also a really good one in some city level at night I think, forgot the name

These two sum it up pretty well.
>vehicles were overpowered
>"secrets" are often in plain sight
These two especially suck because once you finally start reaching the big arena fights, there is always a """secret""" shortly before it containing a vehicle that trivializes the whole segment.

Games suck

I simply don't like Sam's redesign.
