It sucks because postal 3 looks nice. It had some cool art, and from what I’ve heard, the music is decent. Do you think the game could’ve been good if the Russian economy didn’t crash and the A team was still working on it?

lol Hatred is completely not like POSTAL 2
One is an edgy game about a person wanting to blow up the world while the other is about a dude trying to do chores across several days, and plus you don't even need to kill people there.
Do they get confused with the first one?

Postal 2 is magical because even though you don’t need to kill everyone, there are so many opportunities to do it that you just can’t resist. One thing I like to do when I’m low on health is to go to the night club where everyone’s on the dance floor and set them all on fire. Even if I only get one donut from it.

Yeah, about all these talks involving the economy and team A is a load of bullshit. Heres the real deal, once Akella got the writes for Postal they gave it to guys called Trashmasters who at best released 3 crappy beat em ups based on 3 shitty Russian movies. These guys didn't do much work, aside from making one location with the aid from RWS, so Akella sent some of em to the west to learn the source engine, while others went to a game con with a hastily made a demo. After that was done, they assembled another demo level for Akella to make it seem like progress was being made thus getting them funding, while also showing the demo at a Russian gaming con, but they instead returned to doing fuck all. Akella eventually got tired of this shit around 2009 so they cut the funding and kicked a good number of Trashmaster employes back to the local train station they found them. Thus the whole project was started from scratch. Around 2011 they present Akella with a beta version and ask for more money to finish the game, Akella having had enough of these jokers tells em to seek funding in a large hole filled with cement, so Trashmasters just say "fuck it" and stitch Postal 3 with whatever they had and released under the moniker "You swines wanted it, so enjoy it and choke on it". After the game got trashed, they farted out two barely working patches and then closed their doors.

Yeah they fixed that. Loads instantly for me.
Actually, RWS fixed more than that. After Redux came out they touched up the original's controls to be more compatible with the mouse, meaning you can play it with the traditional WASD and mouse controls. It's not perfect, but it's better than how it originally controlled.
I can't think of any other company that continually updates their old titles, but RWS does it. Hell they even updated Postal 2 to provide controller support from everything from a PS3 controller to the friggin' Wii U gamepad.

If they really want to celebrate Judaism, they should have Postal 1 free for the next 16439 years.I guess it’s just free now. Makes sense, considering it’s 22 god damn years old.Running With Scissors on Twitter

Honestly, the fact that RWS updated their first game almost 20 years after it's release, released a massive expansion to their second game 12 years after it's release, and how they engage in discussion with the fanbase to release the best possible product granted them my eternal respect. Most genuine, honest and caring studio around.

I don't care how janky it is but it feels like the world NEEDS a Postal 4 to exist. And for it be good of course.

Not only that, but they made that expansion as a way to erase Postal III while also incorporating its scant redeeming qualities (Cory Cruise for example) as an apology to the fans and to acknowledge how fucking awful III was. You never see any company, video game or otherwise, go to such lengths to apologize to their upset fans and try to redeem themselves. Most would just pretend the mistake never existed. Not RWS though. As Civvie himself put it, "The company that put out Postal 2 cares."

Double posting because this is a fun thing about Postal 1 that I see no one talk about.
You know how in Postal 2 playing on specific holidays has certain events play out, like the leprechaun that appears on St. Patrick's Day? Postal 1 isn't that extreme but there are special things that happen. If you play it right now for example, all the grenade tossing hostiles are replaced with Santas throwing explosive presents, enemies will yell "Rudooooolph!" when injured and even the Postal Dude has some unique comments like, "Screw Rudolph!" And when you kill yourself, the Dude instead says, "Ma, I'm comin' home for Christmas!"
I also played it on April Fool's Day, which was fun. The title screen retitles it "Postal for kids!", the figure in the background has clown hair, and there was some text next to the open mouth saying, "Brush your teeth!" And all the loading screens were replaced with children's drawings. There aren't any changes outside of that though. I have the title screen saved somewhere. I'll have to dig it up and share it.
EDIT: Here they are.

I got Postal 2 on GOG when it was free.
Now I love it so much, in fact. I think I want to make some Postal 2 memes.

I'd say Civvie, but he already has a cameo. And decino is too wholesome for Postal.

It better be Jimbo. He just has to not fuck up and make an ass of himself before the game is out of Early Access.
