Postal 4
The POSTAL Dude is back!
Several years have passed since the events that devastated the once proud town remembered as Paradise. The only two to walk away from the cataclysm unscathed, the hapless everyman known as the POSTAL Dude and his loyal companion Champ, drive aimlessly through the scorching deserts of Arizona looking for a new place to call home. After a fortuitous gas station rest stop ends with their car, trailer home, and the rest of their worldly possessions stolen, all the Dude’s seemingly got left to his name is his canine cohort and his bathrobe, and neither of them smells all that great. However, on the horizon, the duo glimpses an unfamiliar and dazzling town that beckons to them. What untold prospects lie within? Fame? Fortune? Maybe a bidet or two? Edensin awaits.
POSTAL 4: No Regerts is a satirical and outrageous comedic open world first person shooter and the long-awaited true sequel to what’s been fondly dubbed as “The Worst Game Ever™”, POSTAL 2! (No third game is known to exist.)

Postal 4 Review
I’m going to disclose that I have a very strong bias towards postal. Its one of my favourite game series of all time, I own every single game in it. Yes even Postal 3. I personally view RWS as one of the best game devs out there, unlike other game devs they acknowledge how ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Postal 3 was and they haven’t pulled it from stores. It takes a remarkable amount of honesty to let a mistake like that stay especially in today’s industry. Where games like OKTWD are pulled after getting all the sales they can or people like Randy Pitchford completely lie about the success rate of their games to bury bad press.
Postal 4 in its current state is unbelievably rough. It barely runs about 30 FPS and soft locks from time to time. But it already shows more of the postal series charm than 3 ever did. To start with the series is once again open world, the dialog is witty and spiteful as ever. The spirit of postal 2 is definitely here But its sort of like looking at a hunk of raw marble and trying to see the statue buried inside. Its easy if you know what to look for but in its current state its probably going to intimidate a lot of people.
Though I believe with time RWS can hew this rough stone into something worthy of being called a Masterpiece. As long as they stay true to the vision of what made the series good.
My only complaint is the performance (not the CHOICE) of John St John (AKA Duke Nukem) as the new voice of the Postal Dude. I understand that RWS can’t exactly force Rick Hunter to return if he doesnt want to and I respect the man well enough to let him go, even if other fans don’t. However John St John sounds like someone trying to do a Rick Hunter impression and failing. Please just let him use his natural voice. Even Corey Cruise did a better job then what John st John is currently doing because Corey just used a more natural tone.
Rest assured though, Postal is in good hands once more and the future of the series is looking bright.
