![]() Since the game looks like an early PS3 title whilst still chomping up my memory and CPU like a hungry hungry hippo, bugs like this seemed about par for the course. At the same time, the radio stopped working as well. Speaking of the mobile phone, it also serves as a map to help the player navigate their surroundings and find new jobs and opportunities.Ĭuriously though, the map randomly stopped being able to pan around at one point. Toilet humor is a big focus of Postal 4: No Regerts, and I found this out from the first time I switched on the radio from Postal Dude’s mobile phone and heard a hair metal song where the lyrics gave an evocative description of the singer’s explosive diarrhea. Ugly, dead-eyed NPCs talk on their mobile phones about future sexual activities, asking “only up to one knuckle?”, whilst homeless people exclaim “where’s my poop bucket?” Don’t worry though, if you miss the hilarity of these lines the first time, you’ll be hearing them over and over till your ears bleed. Right from the start, you’re going around collecting talking dolls shaped like the male and female reproductive organs, who make dire sexual puns when you pick them up. Though Postal dude is able to purchase a mobility scooter to help him more quickly traverse the terrain, the frequent loading checkpoints in every area made me absolutely loathe to look around and explore. Postal 4: No Regerts is an “open world” game in that you can walk around nondescript towns (with the occasional wacky building like a giant toilet built into a villa) for a brief period before the game abruptly pauses and takes a torturously long time to load in the next area. He sets out to make some money doing various dirty jobs no-one else would want to do in an attempt to re-establish himself and climb out of homelessness and poverty. Now he is stranded in a town somewhere in Southwest America with no more than a bathrobe and his trusty dog. Postal 4: No Regerts starts off with the series protagonist, the “Postal Dude”, finding himself with his trailer and most of his possessions stolen. ![]() Now Postal 4: No Regerts has a chance to right the ship, but does it simply delve deeper into self-destructive madness instead? Postal 3 was widely considered a misfire, riddled with bugs and hobbled by repetitive gameplay, it made the series feel like it was running headfirst into self-destruction like its protagonist. Postal 2 skewed in the other direction, being much more of a goofy, satirical open-world game, with the violence being largely optional. The very first Postal was a dark, disturbing portrait of a man descending into madness and going on a homicidal killing spree. If You Buy Postal 4 Then You’ll Regert It
