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.)

I have finished first day missions and game feels like Postal 2. I'm not going to comment on graphics or optimization let's face it running with scissors is developer, nuff said. As we all know game is made in a way that things tend to escalate as you progress. Day 1 missions are fun and easy but one that stands out as boring as hell is sewer mission, that's single reason game gets 4 stars even in development since I don't see how this mission can be made better. So far game looks promising, there are no cops yet but civilians are well armed and you are free to explore and raise hell.
I expect that all kind of animal rights/religious/SJW zealots will throw lot of hate towards this game but that is part of fun waiting for full version.
Its time to piss some mouths and smoke Health Pipes, and im all of Health Pipes. The Postal Dude is back, and now hes voiced by John Saint John(though you can change to Corey Cruise and Rick Hunter), and hes better than ever. In a new janky HD engine, he continues his adventures looking for a job, doing groceries and meeting up celebrities, if this leads up to a shoot out agaisnt feminists or cultists is totally incidental.
It makes me so incredibly sad to leave this review, because in terms of the game itself it's nearly a 5.
In the world we live in currently, irreverent games are few and far between. Games like this are needed desperately. And by "games like this", I mean FUN games.
Did Running With Scissors need to make this game? No.
But this is the human condition. Sometimes we don't NEED to do things, you just do things because you can.
Unfortunately, I have to give this game a 1-star rating because it is so INCREDIBLY UNOPTIMIZED. Yes, I am aware the game is in development, but that would be an understatement with this outing.
This is not a AAA game with bleeding edge graphics. The insanely low framerates and stuttering are on a whole other level here.
