Meet Rich Knuckles – your new favourite call-centre help desk operator. Unless you’re a Gears of War fan.
The video is clearly – as with anything related to Serious Sam – not meant to be taken seriously, but fans of some games may be slightly hurt by the fact that Rich is happy to refer to their games with a slight sense of irreverence. I laughed – and you should too. Unless you’re still stuck behind cover…
“No! Taking cover behind walls is not a fun way to play a video game!”

In an amusing little video, Knuckles deals with all kinds of gaming qualms such as not being able to carry two guns in “other games”, not having enough friends for multiplayer and… the discomfort of soiling yourself.
“I’m already fielding all sorts of calls from shooter fans wondering where all the conveniently placed barricades and random concrete walls are in Serious Sam 3: BFE,” says Knuckles.
“Most of these guys have gotten soft from years of crouching behind cover, picking off one or two approaching enemies as they make their way through missions. It’s pathetic.”
Devolver Digital CFO Fork Parker weighed in with this important addition: “I hope we are outsourcing these help line operators to save some cash. Use one of those Eastern European countries where the girls have perfect asses and sexy accents. You know, like Brazil.”
