This level works so well for how simple it is.
It just feels right that the final level sees Sam at full power, all his weapons, loaded up with health and armour and with a massive gauntlet of enemies with an incredibly dramatic soundtrack.
This level so flawlessly nails the atmosphere on every level. Truly one of the masterpieces of first person shooters of this era.
Especially the atmosphere during the fight in the massive area with the meteors coming down.
@@JR28. yes the meteors add an outstanding urge and drama
One of the coolest maps in the entire game: epic soundtrack, awesome fights. I just fricking love it
The last area with the immense number of enemies and the meteors coming down along with the awesome soundtrack will be one of my best memories in gaming. I still remember the first time playing it back in like 2003 like it was yesterday. Those were the days.
8:00 lol I didn't know that about Cannons. Btw, congrats on finishing TSE!
20:05 the Embryo Museum secret isn't located on Earth. You are teleported somewhere else in universe. You can see Ugh-Zan I, Ugh-Zan II and a question mark that looks like Ugh-Zan which is where Ugh-Zan III was. You were supposed to see both Ugh-Zan I and Ugh-Zan II on The Mental Institution level in Serious Sam 2 as a moving decoration to the level so to say. They would be outside of the level and would roar on player only.
Models were the same but made a bit cartoony to fit the style of ss2. They were removed from the level because of time constraints and only 2 sound entities are left from which only 1 sound entity is left active which is why you can hear Ugh-Zan but can't see him when playing Mental Institution. It's a shame really, if there were no time constraints the game would have been much bigger, better and more polished. It's good that 2K isn't Croteam's publisher anymore.
Something about Croteam's problem with publishers:
Gathering of Developers was their publisher for The First Encounter and The Second Encounter in 2001 and 2002. After Gathering of Developers died Croteam's new publisher became the awful 2K games that is probably responsible for kid-friendly style in Serious Sam 2 and for time constraints (end of 2005) that led to a shitty game compared to what the game could have been. 2K games later sued Croteam and wanted to take their franchise. Luck was on Croteam's side so 2K didn't manage to take the franchise. New publisher which was created by people who worked in Gathering of Developers, called Devolver Digital, became their publisher for Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter and is Croteam's publisher to this day.
Laki a long read but very good. Didnt know they were close to losing ss to 2k
Thank god for Devolver.
I did not know for ss 2
'Course, even after leaving 2K, they unfortunately didn't get much paydirt with BFE and even 4. Amusingly, would even say that the former's 2K contemporaries, BioShock 1 and 2, are far better games.
At least they did well with The Talos Principle, but even then, that's not a Serious Sam installment.
My friend told me that The Grand Cathedral soundtrack sucks...
He was hit by a bus...
I lost my bus driving license.
In all honesty, as much as I love it, I have to say that it could've looped a bit better. It just stops for a few seconds.
Guess you did an Isaac Dian and Miria Harvent on the poor sod.
23:00 he was Kleerly trying to be your friend. Killing him was rude
Get out!
Hooray!You made it!I'm just looking forward to "Broken Kill Counts in Classic Serious Sam (Part 2)" and "Classic Serious Sam Monster Tier List(on Serious)"
We all know which monster would be SS tier xD
I know which one will be AAAAAAA tier...
The last area with the immense number of enemies and the meteors coming down along with the awesome soundtrack will be one of my best memories in gaming. I still remember the first time playing it back in like 2003 like it was yesterday. Those were the days.
Holy shit bro same. Playing this split screen at my neighbors house trying to beat the reaper

Here's a few related facts:- when they released the Original version of Serious Sam on the Original Xbox, they had to make some changes to the game due it's limitations. Weapons that were exclusive to The Second Encounter part of the game appear in The First Encounter. Also levels were made smaller, case in point, The Grand Cathedral. When it came to this level and the Xbox limitations, this level was cut in half, so the first half of this level was named The Corridor of Death. Luckily when they did the remake, they just ported the PC versions The First Encounter/The Second Encounter to the Xbox Live Arcade with the levels in all their original glory.
Edit:- changed a few words for grammar sake.
Atleast you didn't forget to get the cannon unlike some other weapon in the previous level (that you thankfully got back thanks to clean start) :)
F for the time lost on the practice run.
I forgot a lot of the "memorable" moments from the earlier levels, like the bouncy rooms and rotating tunnels and stuff. But these later levels, from the citadel and onward, really stuck in my mind, and this one is no exception. Long wide hallways, huge fights, amazing music. And I love the rays of sunlight shining down through the dark clouds in the background. What a great setting for an epic battle.
Yeah I highly agree. As a kid playing this on Xbox getting to the citadel felt so grand and amazing. That beautiful skybox, the amazing music. Such a great ending level for an amazing game.
Oh boy, here we go.
On the surface this is such a simple level but it just works. The secrets are amazing and the music is so fine but I think the point at which I really started to love this level was when it started raining fire. It's just you, the enemies, a bunch of power-ups and raining rocks. Completely out of nowhere but just so awesome and at the point I beat the final boss I really don't care anymore that the boss is pretty underwhelming because I had my fun and it was freaking amazing.
Good Video, I'm sorry to hear you had to do it twice but hey, more good music, eh? :D
Wait, I just realized, Sam says "I hate running backwards" when the player backtracks right?
Croteam were producers of a game made by Binx Interactive called "I Hate Running Backwards" in 2018. That game takes place in Serious Sam universe.
Clever Croats.
Wow, that music, the sky turning dark, nonstop shooting, and a lightning strike. That is beauty.
The meteors are just one entity in Serious Sam Classics called a Meteor Shower entity - it is placed right where the ammo pack is. The damage they deal is like a damage from a Major Biomech x2. In Serious Sam HD, there's no Meteor Shower entity, so they just used Eruptor entities. This is why the meteors in HD are very weak, and scatter more than in the Classics.
Best music of the series, great atmosphere, [mostly] great fights, cool secrets... what more could you ask for?
Ah, what a game. In the words of Vinnie Jones: "It's been emotional".
Guffy vs Mancubus: who would win an eating contest?
The fat one.
"I highly recommend you get some popcorn and something to drink."
... a bottle of fizzy water and an orange. Clearly I was ill prepared for this.
It'll have to do, friend.
Too bad you didn't left the final cutscene in, Sam's phone call to Mental is dope.
Agreed, though it's a shame that it all leads to mucky SS II.
@@michaelandreipalon359SS2 is NOT canon from what I heard
Boss may be pathetic but boss fight music is cool af
Oh yeah, Undercode on top!
Damn you actually held my attention for 40 minutes, I didn't even notice how much time has passed until you got out of the corridors and into the open. I don't think I've even clicked on a let's play let alone finish watching one in years, so yeah, props to your skills and especially the analysis stuff but it's this that got me subscribed, nice job!
*decino says he won't cheese the final arena*
Me: YES! FINALLY! GRAND CATHEDRAL DONE RIGHT!!!!
*proceeds to completely cheese the final boss*
Me: Oh wait, nvm
Seriosuly though, this was absolutely amazing! Thanks for making such awesome walkthroughs of both of these games and doing justice to them. Serious Sam doesn't get nearly enough love it deserves.
This level was a fantastic finish to the serious sam. From great memorable music to simple but effective level design. To nice and funny secrets, including the pumpkin yards, the room with boss from ssfe, the afro guy in window and a butt staring at you. Very good level
Thank you for making an awesome lets-play of Classic Serious Sam Series, Specially The Second Encounter. Loved and enjoyed every bit of it.
Aaaaaaaand I love big juicy double pumpkins ;P
My fav level in the franchise,
A straight corridor of death.
The legend says that decino died in Serious Sam
i love how the thompson and minigun are pefrectly accurate at like 500 meters
Very much so. Me, I prefer the slight inaccuracy of the TNE minigun, makes it feel more real.
Halo magnum: "I can hit things from very long range!"
Serious Sam 1 Tommygun/Minigun: "Haha, how cute"
Thank gods for what seems like reverse engineered magitek. Pity they don't have infinite ammo like the revolvers.
"get some popcorn and something to drink" does boardwalk pizza and hoegaarden beer count lol...cheers m8
Popcorn and a drink? Well I have a plate full of rice, beans, salad and liver steak with onions, I hope that counts. Let's do this!
Before it even starts, my heart is so freaking pumped. Let's do this. That music... the crescendo moments and that fight in the open with lightning...
I wouldnt say it was bad boss, cheesing him is quite terrible but fight itself is quite good, you really need to be on top of your game to clear all that stuff he spawns
One can also say that it's not intended for you to skip the cutscene where the boss appears to either hide or get some cheap shots in. It IS an option though, so really it's up to each player to decide how they want to do it. I'm just happy that he cleared the final arena in a proper fashion, unlike most walkthroughs here on YT, who indeed run away and snipe stuff from miles away.
I'm not sure it's possible to kill the boss without that exploit. Or using Serious Bombs.
@@MrEvilbyte what do you mean? Of course it's possible. You shoot the boss a few times, then shoot enemies he spawns a few times, grab the speed shoes, shoot the boss a few times, etc.
I dunno, maybe Croteam were pushed by time at this point, so they didn't test it properly.
overall, i don't think the quality on these videos has been all that bad. everything we need to see, is perfectly visible. my only gripe with the series so far have been the stutters that you mentioned. glad to hear you got them ironed out.
Not sure if I fixed the lag spikes. Haven't watched this video in its entirety, so I cannot tell.
I found you can avoid jumping and getting hit by mechs, reptloids in Jumper Yard. Stay in start area with ammo bag and Armor at start point. Kill Hoppers till you snipe all 4 mini bio blue mechs. Then time your jump at opposite end between jumpers while killing hoppers. You must make it across before killing all so keep 1 or 2 alive till you make it. Get inside any of the corner 2 walled doorways at ends from where kleers and mini bio mech spawn. Then kill last hoppers. Kleers spawn one by one all 6 can kill them from behind with Chainsaw or sniper before they realize. Even if they do notice can kill in minimum damage. Can minigun the major red bio mechs and their rockets from hiding one by one easy. Just kill their rockets on time. Can easily snipe Kleers on other side as they jump. Can easily snipe harpies or lure them in stepping out and back in with chainsaw. Take opposite wall green aldurian repltloids one by one. Ones on your side of wall can't see you easy killings in end.
At 400% enemy strength you can't win jumping. Major bio mech takes like 6 cannonballs, or 20 rockets/sniper bullets. Harpies need 2 sniper bullets. Mini mechs take also 2-3 snipes or half a dozen rockets. Reptloids need 7-8 sniper bullets or 10 rockets. Kleers take minimum 5 rockets snipers so obviously it won't be easy at all jumping and fighting maybe impossible. And Marshhoppers at that strength in groups are lethal.
I just realized how much akin this level is to the Great Pyramid, hell event the fact that the temple ending that is constant in all the serious sam endings is proof of this...
i waited for this i loved this series i hope you continue with serious sam 2 or 3
42 minutes of pure joy, drink and popcorns are here! U made my sunday evening. 💣
Actually, if the Harpy dies carrying a Kamikaze, the Kamikaze isn't really removed. I noticed this before, but when you get closer to where the Harpy carrying the Kamikaze died, the Kamikaze spawns for some odd reason. Probably one reason why this was not in HD?
10:21 what a beautiful and terrifying view, specially if you see that formation at close range
The theme in this level will forever be a part of my soul.
"oh god, never underestimate the power of stupid things in large numbers"
Heh was he speaking about you tube comments?
Not using Serious Bombs is definitely easier in SS1 than SS2. The final level of SS2 is a massive pain to deal with if you don't use one due to all the big Spider Mechs near the end..
A little over a year after this video, I finally beat classic Serious Sam games. This level is definitely a great way to leave off, the penultimate battle in ruins during a raging thunderstorm and meteor shower while this epic soundtrack is playing is definitely a lot of fun despite many deaths. Great walkthrough btw, and a great game series.
Been looking forwards to this one. I loved your series!
This game is my all time favorite. Big open maps nice colors best sountracks and Serious humor. Im so happy that someone still plays and enjoyes it. Serious sam never dies.
Everything comes to an end. I loved your whole TFE/TSE let's play.
This is how you do a final level.
Excellent playthrough. I've only finish TFE and TSE on normal. You make things look so easy. Btw, the final boss looks and behaves a lot like D'sparil from Heretic
Now imagine this lvl with fast monsters mode :O
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA _Explodes from excitement!_
Epic end to an epic playthrough, Decino!
Never thought Mordekai fight could be cheesed this way lol!
(Also don't worry, I won't tell RUclips anything. ;D)
Well, if this isn't one of the most epic final levels in an FPS game I don't know what is (apart from the boss, I guess). And all in what was at the time basically a budget indie game. Almost seems a shame some of the earlier levels aren't of quite the same standard.
Thanks for the epic playthrough decino.
Now THIS is a level that defines Serious Sam, a big battle, big arenas, and a SERIOUS fight to the final boss. I remember one of my playtroughs ended in failure cause I wasn't SERIOUS enough. (funnily enough not the VR playthrough)
Mordekai being a breeze boss fight compared what you just went through feels like a great punctuation on a awesome Serious Sam game.
Your voice is so soothing this is like an ASMR video :)
Props to you for completing this map. I got sick of it and just turned on godmode at the part with those stupid jump pads :/
This game is .... from 2002, I was 6 yo and playing this, I’m .... so old, times were great when this game was released, I mean, I have a bit of nostalgia, thank you for uploading .. this have bring up many many memories
Finally, you made it! Congratulations!
Too bad the final boss isn't as strong as the one from the first encounter, but overall great game, and you've done a great job in getting all the kills possible
I summarize this level with a French proverb that says the best it's for the end for me it's my favorite level music action galore and then this funny ending nothing to reproach him.
Destiny has been fulfilled! Nice run!
45+ minutes you spent to share your awesome skills and commentary with the world. I'd say they were well utilized, given the quality inherent in what was presented.
So here we are! End of the line.
Really curious for your overall coverage of Second Encounter in your special vid when you hit the editor again.
When i done my no death serious run (if died - restart game), i think i came to the start of this map five or six times.
And finished game with 3 serious bombs cause "MAYBE I NEED THEM LATER".
You simply dont see level design like this anymore, big, intricate and interesting designs.
I waited long for this.
On the HD version, I played on a 68 multiplier which included no powerups and 400 percent extra enemy health. Extremely hard but cannon still ripped through kleers so it was mainly the biomechs that caused stress
Edit: infinite ammo :P
Me and my popcorn is ready!
another cool vid : )
Bright Island next?
It's too shitty at the moment. Maybe after they patch it up.
You call this QUALITY? Ha. Then you're GOD DAMN RIGHT
that move on the werebulls at 12:32 was nice.
Oh damn that spin at 16:42
Ive found that the flamethrower is somewhat op, at least in hd. It replaced the shotgun for me.
Oh shit. This level. Loved every moment of this when I romped through it on the 360 version on Serious.
Epic map with epic fights and one of most epic and fitting soundtracks of time.
Popcorn?
I got my grand ma's cooking right now. This stuff is great.
SS is very grainy and have a lot of movement of grainy surfaces. And compression algorithms don't like such things.
00:19 a pack of sunflower seeds and a cup of tea ready for action! :D
03:40 you're doing it for your lovely subscribers and fans!
Before entering this level it should be a warning saying that your left mouse button can be burned after playing this xD
this was one of my favourite FPS levels when growing up, it's a very straightforward level and that works quite well and is a huge improvement from Metropolis (hope I'm remembering the level name correctly) from TFE so it is a way better experience. It's the end of the game so you're all pumped up and all you have to do is just keep killing enemies while listening to an epic music track behind it. Sure it takes a while to get through the whole map but it's just such a satisfying experience
I should really look into the stats in this game, especially damage and hitpoints
>4 sniper shot to kill biomech major
>4 rockets to kill same
>2 rockets to kill werebull
>1 sniper shot to kill same
For awhile there, I thought the sniper and RL did the same damage
Edit: Disclaimer, never played Serious Sam outside of BFE, I only watched my mom play TFE and TSE
Sniper does a lot more, it's just that some monsters have sniper resistance.
Wait, am I miscounting every time? is it 5 rockets?
@@decino That makes sense. I looked it up, rocket does 100 direct and 50 splash, and it's probably like Doom where they take both splash and direct. Majors supposedly have 750 health and a zoomed sniper shot does 300 damage. I see now where Overwatch got that idea from.
U need 5 rockets to kill big mech.
@@MasterKolis Alright, I guess I'm miscounting then
24:40"Greetings everyone and welcome to my 100% playthrough of The Armagedon."
Quality was good, so no problem there. Definitely action packed all the way. Nicely played, butt I can't help but wonder who modeled there lower region for the game. Nice curves😉🤣🤣
I remember I used to play this on PC as a kid
I am practicing the music on my keyboard (piano thing) for a fact. That's how much i like it lul
The music of this level is nothing short of epic
The soundtrack in this level is just.... *Amazing*
well of course you would do the semi final section with meteors by standing in the middle. Jesus man, that one is just tiring i don't want to try it... Although there is still Demo I know I will share my thoughts right now....AWESOME PLAYTHROUGH! This is the first time i have seen someone play Serious Sam on youtube, so I learned a lot of secrets and strategies. I think I will next time also do Clean Starts. It always bothers me that they overkill you with so much ammo for sniper,flamethrower,minigun and cannon that you for the most part don't need other weapons and with Clean Starts it is kinda a bit well balanced. Although they still sooner or later will stack you to the brim with everything and some weapons even with little ammo are OP as fuck....but anyway....i think that is just a thing about the Second Encounter. They weren't trying to make a balanced challenge with cleverly placed monsters and usage of all weapons...they went over-the-top and super fun way! And to be honest I go back to this one at least once a year. It is a shame that from what I know you don't like Serious Sam 2 because that is a material for many,MANY hours of playthroughs. I think it is kinda underrated gem. It shines in the darkness caused by the third installment for me. Thank you for the playthroughs. I am really addicted to this channel right now i wonder what game will come next. I'll keep watching!
Good runs!
I'm sad it's over now.
Oh yeah, cameos from Ugh-Zan I and Ugh-Zan II.
Great job I never managed to beat this map without autosaves. I hope you try Sam 2 on Serious diff, I know it's a silly game but it's still fun and has good gameplay.
I love this level so much :D i remember how i play it once - put it on closed multiplayer server, to give myself almost unlimited ammo and make x8 all monster spawns.
Final episode of Game of Thrones, yeah!
Also: 9:29 that canon on top left almost killed you.
...What a goddamn nightmare, May 19, 2019 was, especially with Star vs. the Forces of Evil also in the equation.
The best level in ss history 😍🤩🥺😨
Damn 45 min of your life gone?! Big f ma dude
Also I suggest you Nvidia GeForce experience than obs
I'm an AMD scrub.
@@decino amd is the most oppressed community I'll be honest 😂 maybe go for bandicam 😂😂?
Haven't tried that yet.
I was waiting for some shotgun action in this playlist and decino here flexes on kleer with sniper and cannons🤣🤣🤣
COME ON KILL ME! I'M RIGHT HERE!!!! should've said that in Arnold's voice
You know the lag spikes and textures, I think that was only because you're playing the OG version, because I had the same issue but never once happened on the HD port. Can't think of any other way, but I have to say this. This series will always be one of my favorites, can't ever get enough of it. I'm really happy to see you upload these :)
The game itself doesn't lag. It's the recording.
@@decino That's what I was meaning, I had the same issue when I tried recording with OBS. Game plays amazingly, but the recording just didn't want to deal with any of it, tried it multiple times, and still persisted; however when I tried recording Serious Sam SE the HD port. The recording was flawless, first try, never changed a thing. I haven't the faintest clue why or how, and the only thing I can think of is because they "polished" it. OR it's just technology being dumb again, usually I just chalk it up to that lol
I have/had the same lag spikes with Doom II. It's weird.
@@decino Could it be possible that it's the graphic engine itself? Because after thinking about it, it only happens when there's too much "Static" on screen. By static I'm meaning the effect that happens with any type of recorder when you try to show too many individual pixels at once, similar to the gray static you get on TV at times, it could make sense that the draw/render distance with the "green" of the grass might've had something to do with it. It's the only thing I can think of as a whole haha.
man iam in love with this game
Job well done,computer! :D loved it!
Will you continue the Serious Sam series? :)
Like Serious Sam 3,and what are your opinion on the Serious Sam 4? :D
I'll do a surprise Serious Sam game after this. Serious Sam 4 so far looks kinda crap.
Now to 100% Bright Island. Well done on this series.
Bright Island needs some serious fixing first.
This stage is so good! The arenas and corrals like this stage are my favorite parts of serious Sam games. Croteam rules. I need to check for serious same 4 videos.
imagine having a, lets say, funeral at that cathedral. or wedding xD ...that will turn into multiple funerals after a marathon trough cathedral were you see monsters, cannons shooting you, semi-naked ladie booty in windows, afro men, launch pads, embryios, etc. xD
clearly not a traditional orthodox christian cathedral :D
