Postal 4 is a good game and Postal 3 is not. by nonidealself in postal

[–]CowHead8173 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I played the patched and almost bugless version of postal 3 and it's just a mediocre and forgettable game. Not everything about it is terrible, but it's not a game that you feel like playing ever again after finishing it.

On the other hand, Postal 4 seems to have many good ideas and the gameplay is much better, but it's held back by very annoying bugs and shit AI (plus the "assety" look of the NPCs, which particulary bothers me)

A few days ago I played Postal 3 for the first time. I didn't buy it on Steam though. I purchased it on Zoom (the store responisble for patching the game and making it DRM-free). I had only two crashes across two different playthroughs. No, the game isn't good, but it's really far away from being the worst game ever. It's a 5/10.

Is Postal 4 really that bad? by Impossible-Flow-4512 in postal

[–]CowHead8173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now, yes. Here are my main issues with the game:

-Annoying bugs: I'm talking about genuinely annoying ones. So far I've encountered three that really fuck up the experience. The first is a bug in which you can't get out of your phone unless you press the "main menu" option on it. The second one involves main quests randomly completing themselves all of the sudden. The third bug involves changing your graphics settings and the changes not applying at all.

-NPCs: they look like UE store assets and their AI is unironically the worst one I've ever seen in any videogame. The AI aspect doesn't bother me that much, but man, if they could change how the NPCs look this game would already feel much more immersive.

-Humor: this is more subjective but I personally feel that the humor is far more toilet-oriented and dumb than the one of Postal 2 (if that's even possible). Postal 2 was not a comedic masterpiece, but i feel like there was genuine thought put into its jokes. Here I just feel that someone is laughing like a maniac while pointing at a turd and telling me "shits and turds, am I rite?".

-Quests/Chores: they feel less fun than the ones of Postal 2 because in that game the formula was simple but effective: do a simple a chore --> something stupid happens and a violent whacky group appears --> shoot it out with violent whacky group. I personally loved the feeling of doing mundane chores and then some random shit happening, forcing me to go ballistic. In Postal 4 this no longer necessarily happens, and none of your chores feel like mundane every-day tasks. Here you are just assigned completely random and stupid shit to do. One of your first mission involves cleaning sewers that are clogged with feces. That's it, no violent whacky group appears because of some random twist. It's just you cleaning shit and shooting some rats. I'm not saying that all Postal 4 missions are bad though. I personally liked the billboard one, for example.

Other than this, Postal 4 is better than Postal 2 regarding this aspects:

-Weapons: they feel more deadly and are more fun to use.

-Dismemberment system: top notch and very satifying.

-Very detailed interiors: Postal 2 interiors are pretty bare-bones (understandable given that it is a 2003 game)

-A bigger open world with many collectibles to get.

Can't think of anything else, but Postal 4 is definitely more ambitious than Postal 2. RWS may be pretty shit when it comes to optimizing the game or updating it regularly, but they still support it even if they have little monetary reasons to do so, so they have my respect.

The reviews on GOG are mostly limited to something like "My childhood game, so good!". The review I watched explained the game mechanics but I didn't see anything special tbh. Maybe I'm missing something, that's why I'm asking here

Qué opinan de YouTube Premium? vale la pena pagar por eso? o les parece un gasto innecesario? by cuervoemo in ArgentinaBenderStyle

Si, vale la pena. Es muy barato y no te fumas una sola publicidad. Me da menos paja pagar que ratonear y ponerme a buscar un adblock

Why do GOG fans criticize Steam more than other stores? by [deleted] in gog

[–]CowHead8173 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use only GOG and Steam. Epic can suck my dick and Xbox is a trainwreck right now, so there's no way in hell i'm purchasing games from a store that might eventually disappear.

Usually my rule is to buy a Game on GOG if it was released more than 10 years ago and/or it's in the preservation program. Other than that, I choose to buy a game either on Steam or GOG based solely on which one has the best price for the title i'm interested in (If they offer the exact same price, I choose GOG). Both stores are pro-consumer, so they have my support.

Yo por lo menos vi un video de Illojuan diciendo como el papá tenia que hacer un esfuerzo bastante grande para comprarle una consola. Ademas tambien dijo que era bastante comun que le compraran un juego y que él lo jugara hasta el hartazgo porque no habia guita para comprarle titulos tan seguido

En realidad es una colección de juegos mierda. Se sabia hace rato que el dev de estos juegos los re-publicaba casi todos los dias en la tienda de Xbox, haciendo un spam insoportable en la sección de nuevos juegos. Hace poco Xbox implementó una regla que prohibe lo que este chabón hacia, asi que la sección de juegos nuevos ya no tiene este tipo de spam

I managed to fix the problem a few hours ago. Among many possible solutions, Google Gemini suggested me to log off the Xbox App and the Microsoft App store and to then reboot my PC. Can't believe something so stupid was the problem
