Outrageous, but not very interesting

In a way this game is the epitome of the kind of freedom a video game can offer, because it plops you into mundane, everyday situations and then lets you solve them with extreme and absurd violence. And it is fun to do that, but the game doesn't offer a lot of depth and I lost interest in it after less than two hours. The other big aspect, the game's humour, is... there, it's a very 2000s, extremely usamerican, post-9/11 kind of humour that's offensive in the most toothless, inoffensive way. It's hard to describe but it didn't help to keep me interested. All in all, Postal 2 is exactly what you'd expect it to be but ends up losing its luster quickly.

Jank, jank, jank...

Sure it's a good game for goofing around in with quite a bunch of challenge, but there are a bunch of bugs and glitches like various game crashes, stuttering, FPS drops, getting stuck and not getting teleported, getting lit on fire through solid surfaces, not being able to shoot through open doors etc. that take away from the experience... Need full on silence? Mute the game through your operating system, some audio still plays even if you turn the music and sound to 0 in-game. No way to limit the FPS in-game either, making it run at ridiculously high frames. Some other grievances I have with this game are being unable to do anything for a second or two when loading a save, leading to some unsavory moments when the game has saved while you're in a firefight. Ladders can get rather tedious too, jumping off a ladder flings you 6 feet into the air for example, the lack of sideways movement to adjust your position can be a real pain in the angus too, for example you weren't centered enough during a long climb and got stuck on something.. On the topic of firefights, the gunplay is near ridiculous. The rifle sprays all over the place while the pistol shoots near perfectly even while jumping, the shotgun is good up close if you're shooting only the NPCs, Somehow police for example can they tank an entire shotgun blast to the head when they're not wearing any hats or helmets etc?! Throwables are a hassle too if you're not familiar with how the charge up of the throw works.. I hate the halloween mode, it spawns skeletons way too aggressively and gets rid of the ATF machines, good luck trying to collect signatures when a skeleton runs behind you and blows you up... Doesn't help you can't really kill the skeletons with anything else than the pitchfork. If you can look past all this, there's still some fun to be had with achievement hunting, exploring the map and its buildings for easter eggs etc. with a wide variety of difficulties, giving everyone something. DLC Paradise Lost felt even more buggy and sucky than the base game, with some enemies able to spam rockets impossibly fast, more FPS drops, getting pushed around and off of props constantly and more.. Also, some, if not all the postal 2 achievements are just copy pasted into the DLC Paradise Lost, like for example "Uncle T-Bag", I keep getting spawned in the same jail cell, is it even possible to get the achievement in this DLC? I'd rate the DLC 2/5.

Fun. Mindless. Hilarious fun.

There are two types of people in this world. Those that get the joke, and those that are the joke.

You'll regret nothing

Never has there been a more delicate and considered balance of jank, 90s irony/satire, calculated bad taste, and considered, careful implementation of meticulously thought-out gameplay mechanics. Despite essentially having operated at varying levels of functionality over the years and the updates, from 'barely working' in the beginning to 'mostly operational' now, Postal 2 has nevertheless always been a blast to play. It sets you loose in a fun open world and encourages you to explore and have a good time through breaking it. It's less edgy than its isometric predecessor whose name really isn't important anymore, possibly due to being released post-Columbine, but that's essentially to its credit. Although it can get a little dark and brutal depending upon how you choose to play, it never has too much of an impact to it and I always feel like it takes place in the same universe as say, Married With Children, so I can never take it too seriously. The gunplay works, the hit point loss/restoration mechanics are easy to understand, and the weapons and mechanics that break functionality at least do so entertainingly. And it always seems like some new weird thing happens every time I go through it. The devs have also made almost every piece of additional content they've ever released free as of this time, and as of me writing this the game itself is being given away for free on GOG. So what's to lose? I know I regret nothing.
