Each section of the map is small and interconnected with long roads to help hide the loading, which doesn’t work at all. For the most part there does seem to be some genuine locations here that don’t feel completely ripped out of a UE4 asset flip, but the quality is still very low. Visually, Postal 4 isn’t anything special. I was let down that there weren’t more wacky events and visuals for the drug use sections. There was way more funny drug use in Wanking Simulator. There are some drugs to take, but even these were a let down only making the screen have rainbow colored waves. The most bizarre one is a box of pigeons you can use as a grenade that unleashes a swarm… or should I say flock? Otherwise, it’s your standard handguns, rifles, rocket launcher, flame flower etc. Shockingly, there really isn’t anything all that outlandish about the various weapons. Turns out this wasn’t all that great either. Because of this I stopped caring about doing missions and decided to use God Mode, All Weapons, and Sanic Speed to try and find some fun. On top of that, any time you’d walk between maps the game would freeze in order to load the next section, even though the tunnel between maps should have been how it streams in the assets. Missions weren’t progressing and I’d have to use a cheat from the developer on the steam page to skip to the next chapter. Unfortunately, well, not sure if it is unfortunate, but the game started running into a ton of issues with glitches, and I was constantly being dropped through the floor. I’ll give this mission points for creativity. The missions are so matter-of-factly laid out that there is no point or humor made. It’s not that I find any of these subjects or how it’s handled offensive, it’s just so poorly done that there’s no comedy to it. Another has you helping people cross the boarder by putting them in a giant slingshot and launching them over while boarder patrol is shooting at you. One will have you visiting an abortion faire to shut it down with various rides commenting on abortions. Missions range from collecting stray dogs and cats to a van where it’s heavily implied the guy inside is just eating them. Even when there is one semi-amusing idea of a side mission, it ends up feeling hollow because of how stiff and poorly done the world is. The “fun” is supposed to lie within the ridiculous side characters and the missions they have you do, but majority of the time the janky gameplay ruins it. Say goodbye to Paradise and prepare for hell… I mean Edensin.Įssentially the whole point of Postal 4 is to take random jobs around the town to make money, and sometimes when things get over crowded you can start a mini-game to go postal and clear it out. With everything he owned taken away, he now focuses on the local town of Edensin to make money. After stopping at a gas station, his car and trailer are stolen, leaving him only with his dick in his hand. So who am I to deny its request?Īpparently this game takes place right after the disastrous events of Postal 2, no there is not an actual Postal 3, with Postal Dude and his dog driving away from Paradise. Besides the utter lack of comedic timing or writing, the game is just broken in so many ways it was actively not wanting me to continue. Let me try again, when you deliver them with the gusto of an awkward tween trying to be edgy and funny on 9Gag, you’ve already lost me. It’s not like I’m too stuck up to enjoy dirty and immature jokes, I basically live those day-by-day, but when you deliver them with the gusto of a wet fart… actually that would have been better. There aren’t many games that have managed to have immature humor, didn’t take itself seriously, had random gameplay, and also completely bored me without a single laugh or giggle.
