For me it gets boring and annoying too quickly. Most of the time you're just walking around the map trying to figure out what you're supposed to do and why you're playing this, all while listening to ridiculous and odd background music. The metal during the battle is cool, but for some reason it doesn't play in every battle, which feels weird and random. Enemies deal a lot of damage, and this would'nt be a problem …

This and Postal 2 are the best games in the series. Follow the adventures of Postal Dude, someone who has more common sense than anyone working at Disney or Amazon. His newest project is trying not to s*** himself as he's dreaming about various things that you'll be the witness of. This is a shooter in the vein of Painkiller, Serious Sam mixed with sprinkles of Doom Eternal on top. The humour is top notch, the music …

Quake-tier gameplay with Reddit-tier writing. But I can handle a few unfunny jokes when the movement is this good.

The Postal Dude is back in a psychedelic boomer shooter. PBD frontloads its worst level, a boring slog through a twisted suburbia, but if you can get past that the rest gets much better with some inventive level designs that parody pop culture. There are lots of secrets and collectibles among the way. Personally I did not feel like hunting for them but it provides some extra challenge. There is also a speedrun mode, …

Absolutely no regerts in buying this game. Incredibly fun boomer shooter, the soundtrack is one of the best I've heard, there's a large variety of enemies and the slide-jumping alongside the shotgun hook allow for some crazy movement. However there is roughly 201994 sewer sections, not sure why there's so many.

Players who liked POSTAL: Brain Damaged talk about excellent gameplay and movement mechanics; those who didn't talk about humor is often cringeworthy or unfunny. Which matters more to you?

60 of 358 · most liked firsti personally don't feel like playing this game, it's not for me. but arguments like this begin to skew way to close to arguments against "degenerate art". we already have a slew of Shock And Schlock games deemed Fine I Guess like the Postal series, Horses seems to be That But With Intent
negative · AI labelView post →I think Postal is fertile ground for a documentary but a "society thought our controversy-bait game was controversial" angle is both disingenuous and disinteresting. There's probably a way more interesting story about how off-putting the creators are. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zjml...
neutral · AI labelView post →Sometimes I read that "Postal 2" is a bad game. But in that game you can piss on a donut, leave it in the middle of a street, and a cop will find it, eat it, and then throw up. So objectively it's the *best* game.
positive · AI labelView post →First time I played this game, I just ate a fat, heavy dinner, and decided to drink a beer while playing it. While drinking and roaming around the first stage, I started feeling excruciating pain in my stomach. I went to the toilet, and had the most divine, heart-pumping, shotgun-like diarrhea. The kind that leaves you feeling pure and blissful. These are the kinds of memories that leave you forever nostalgic for a video game. 10/10

neutral · AI labelView post →The makers of Postal are making an FPS game about a survivor from Postal and that feels... bad? Like, if you're going to gamify mass shootings it takes a certain empathic uncanny valley to both be capable of thinking about the survivors of it AND to decide to gamify the fictional trauma YOU created.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Way better than Postal 4 and surprisngly well-polished. The game doesn't have a deep story or anything of that sort, it's just pure pew pew fun. There is a good enemy, level and weapon variaty so you won't get bored easily. One little detail I would like to point to out: I came across a pretty annoying bug where the enemies start ignoring you (they either t pose or stare into the wall) and text accumulates on the screen - nothing a quick game restart can't fix.

positive · AI labelView post →Meanwhile, the @rwsstudios.com website (you know, the people who made the Postal games) proudly promotes their diverse team and hired on @kommanderkarl.bsky.social even after he stood up for diversity. You want an edgy game that's made by devs who are actually cool? Go play the Postal games.

They knew that there was..3 days before their ruling of it being premature. That alone is grounds to dismantle the Supreme Court.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In 15 different, crazy levels, the action is fast and furious with hilarious weapons and collectibles. The cutscenes are really cool, and the main menu music is so good you'll want to listen to it for a while. Otherwise, there are plenty of cheeky remarks and offensive enemies – a true Postal game.

neutral · AI labelView post →i love how they kept the old "ugly" graphics from the old games while allowing themselves to have smoother animations, its a lot more colorful than the older games but it honestly adds to its charm. the only problem i have is the fact that the controls are not the same as postal 2 so i had to readapt it but either way its a cool addition to the franchise!
