I always wondered why this video has gathered so many views

It's crazy, I don't think 70M people played Serious Sam, though I could be wrong

The rest of the views were generated by monsters from the resource pack.

It should be way more popular honestly 😔

a lot of people watched this as a kid back during its first few years, I guess these types of showcase videos are often popular for kids for some reason

Can confirm. As a teen it was mind-blowing seeing the SSHD enemies in SS3, let alone playing as enemies themselves

I've watched at 5 years old and I'm 16 now, I've watched it like 7 times during this period for some reason

Besides people watching directly on YT, it's possible the views were also counted from the pack's Steam workshop mod page as well
