The Postal series does not have a graceful history. Iffy releases, loads of controversy, and a generally acceptable level of jank, these games were never meant to be masterful works of art. They were very much games of their time, in the same vein as Duke Nukem and the like. They were absurd and over-the-top first-person shooters aimed to shock and offend. When Postal 2 released in 2003, my fifteen year old self found the prospect of using stray cats as silencers and urinating on people to be the absolute peak of entertainment. Now, twenty years later, does Postal 4 still bring that type of experience? And will I still enjoy it now that I am a senior citizen?
They finished the game on PC in Early Access so Skewed and Reviewed went into the PS5 version to just goof around and learn the controls. The Haptic triggers are a nice touch as was the ability to select which Postal Dude voice you wanted as they showed off some PS5 gameplay.
"From the Developers at Running with Scissors that brought amazing titles such as Postal, Postal 2, and so on comes the latest in this epic franchise: Postal 4: No Regerts. With all the crude humour and hilarious one-liners that Postal fans know, remember, and expect from this series. Postal 4: No Regerts goes on to meet these expectations and somehow keeps the momentum going." Mathew @ Thumb Culture
Games Asylum: "Prior to this belated PS4/PS5 release, the controversial Postal series has remained a PC exclusive since its 1997 debut. Not only is this console iteration a surprise for breaking tradition, but for a series famous for ultra-violence – even resulting in earlier entries being banned – it came as a surprise that I wasn’t forced to fire a single bullet in Postal 4 until around an hour of play. And even then, the hapless foe in my sights was a giant rat – duly found in a sewer."
"Prior to this belated PS4/PS5 release, the controversial Postal series has remained a PC exclusive since its 1997 debut" mmmmmh thats not true Postal Redux came out on Switch PS4 and Mobile
I asked ChatGPT to write a review for it. I might just get my game review this way lmao
--------
Postal 4: No Regerts is a game that tries to be a satirical and outrageous comedic open world first person shooter, but fails miserably on almost every level. The game follows the Postal Dude and his dog Champ as they explore the town of Edensin, Arizona, looking for work and their stolen belongings. The game offers a variety of errands to complete each day, from Monday to Friday, but most of them are either boring, repetitive, or nonsensical. The game also features combat scenarios that are supposed to be chaotic and fun, but instead are frustrating and dull due to poor enemy AI, clunky controls, and bland weapons.
The game’s humor is also one of its weakest points. The game relies heavily on crude jokes, stereotypes, and references that are either outdated or offensive. The game tries to be controversial and edgy, but it comes across as immature and desperate. The game also lacks any meaningful commentary or satire on social issues or current events. Instead, it just mocks everything without any substance or wit.
The game’s technical performance is also abysmal. The game looks dated and ugly, with low-resolution textures, bland environments, and stiff animations. The game also suffers from frequent crashes, glitches, bugs, and frame rate drops that make it hard to play without frustration.
Overall, Postal 4: No Regerts is a terrible game that should be avoided by anyone who values their time and money. It is not fun, funny, or engaging in any way. It is a waste of potential that does not live up to its predecessors or its genre. It is nothing but regerts.
Most of them are just bloggers with a false sense of superiority.
Someone goes out and pays the lowest dollar to put up a cheap site, then trick people into writing for them for free in return for "editor credits", as they're the only ones making any money via the ad revenue.
Anybody who isn't just putting their work out, themselves, via places like YouTube and whatnot are being played.
It's such a simple thing to double check. A quick google search. That's just carelessness.
