POSTAL 4: No Regerts Reviews
Postal 4: No Regerts is cringingly juvenile and painful to play in between all the times it's hard crashing.
Postal 4: No Regerts is an abysmal video game with no redeeming qualities other than the fact that it eventually ends.
Postal 4: No Regerts is a return to form to the cult classic Postal 2.
I could see where the idea of Postal 4 could appeal to PC gamers of a certain age. The mid-90s were a wild time. Back then, you could have a goatee and make scat jokes to random bank tellers without drawing suspicion. Postal 4 aims to bring you back to those times, but in the worst ways I could imagine. I’ve seemingly outgrown or moved past any of the content here that I may once have found appealing, but there’s no way I can justify recommending it to others when the execution is so poor. If this is the state the product is in for version 1.0, I have no idea how rough it must have been in 2019 because it feels very undercooked. A game with a dedicated ‘pull your dick out’ keybinding in 2022 should be way more clever than this. No amount of John St. John voice-over work or copyright-dodging music jingles can cover up the odor emanating from this pile.
Embarassing is a word that doesn't really give the exact idea of how i feel about Postal 4. The crude style of the game suggests a ton of easy jokes, but in this case i feel the best thing is simply to flush the toilet.

Postal 4 is a game that should be avoided. I can see now why some console makers did not want this travesty on their machines. This game is not fun or entertaining at all. Some of the voice work is decent and I laughed maybe twice in my entire playthrough, but on the whole it is embarrassing at best and offensive at worst. This is not a game that succeeds in its offensiveness and instead feels worse because when they attempt to be edgy it comes across as desperate.
Less a continuation of the Postal series and more of a congealed glob of memories from it dumped into a lifeless sandbox litter tray. The biggest crimes Postal 4 commits are being boring and bland.
More than a bad game, more than a disappointment, Postal 4 is nothing but an opportunistic and badly fucked software that is not even finished.

When it comes to humor, satire and pretend violence, I have endlessly high tolerance. Art and entertainment should be free to push buttons and push the limits of what’s acceptable. I have far less patience for lazy, sloppy and tired humor that masquerades as edgy, and no patience at all for developers that waste my time with games that barely run. With Postal 3, Running With Scissors blamed it on the Russians. With Postal 4, they have no one to blame but themselves.
Postal 4: No Regerts is ugly to look and ugly to play – less because it is offensive or inappropriate, more because it is so poorly done. By completely whiffing on anything resembling humor and utterly failing to deliver any meaningful gameplay, Postal 4 delivers nothing of value to players unless they really enjoy watching a game crash once an hour. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
Long story short, Postal 4 is a big joke.

I had so many regrets after playing through Postal 4. This is really one of the worst games since Postal 3, and even an army of coders can't fix its many bugs, glitches, crashes and other problems. It was so painful to play the game that it could be recognized as a mean of torture.

Postal 4 isn't a bad game for having a relatively small team working on it and getting most of its resources from fans who buy the game in Early Access. Strong humor, the ability to unleash violence on almost anyone, stylish graphics with the glitter of Unreal Engine, great dubbing of the main character, all this can be a reason to play the game. However, the experience is spoiled both by the poor artificial intelligence of non-playable characters and by the fact that, compared to Postal 2, there is basically no new revolutionary idea that would push the gameplay to a new level. But maybe the fans don't even want it.

I was not disappointed with how nicely Postal 4 is ultimately playable on the console, because I expected much worse given the previous reviews of the PC version. Still, you can say that the gameplay is just not very good, the shitty humor is actually too bad that it isn't funny, and the graphics are so disappointing that you get the impression that you are playing GTA 3 (with all due respect). are playing. Shadows look ugly, characters look hollow and dead, interfaces are super chaotic. Environments are all a bit similar and there's just no atmosphere at all because people walk around like dead souls and get pissed all over them like it's perfectly normal.

Better than Postal 3.
So with the love that is usually put into the scripting and references for Postal 4: No Regerts is highly applauded. the frame issues and load issues do put a sour taste in your mouth, but if you are willing to overlook that and enjoy the game for its charismatic characters and extremely gory and explicit combat then this would be a great game for you.
Postcard 4: No Regerts is simply something you have to stay away from. It doesn't save itself for the humor, or the gameplay, or the visuals, or for any reason I try to think of to find a positive point.

Postal 4: No Regerts failed. The game came out of Early Access too early and is completely broken. It tries to ride on the nostalgia of the second installment, but it doesn't work.

Postal 4: No Regerts is an attempt by developers Running with Scissors to recapture whatever magic (if you can call it that), that Postal 2 had. But it suffers from an abundance of performance issues, terrible gameplay mechanics, and poor jokes. It certainly left me with plenty of regerts.
Postal 4: No Regerts is a game that just couldn’t catch my attention even as someone who like dumb dirty humor and outlandish gameplay ideas. Its biggest failure is simply not being interesting and having decent jokes or at least more gameplay sections like the cat part. I know it tries to have some political commentary in here, but honestly it always falls flat.
