No, thats Shadow The Hedgehog.

>>262767131
No, that would be the first Postal.
>>
>>262767287
did the first postal include the option of killing gary coleman?
>>
>>262767131
No. Postal 2 is kinda funny. Postal 1 on the other hand is a genuine serial killer simulator

>>262767131
It's over the top and clearly satirical, so no.

No, because it's clearly cheeky on purpose, you stupid cunt.

Postal 1 was way edgier.

No, Postal 2 is satire. You can complete the entire game without doing anything violent. Yet what do people do?

It's sorta of a social commentary and potshot at human beings obsession with violence.

Postal 2 is not edgy.

Technically you can, but you are forced into a lot of violent situations, and you can find a turban wearing muslim in the bomb making section of the library IIRC
>>
>>262768915
Not that anon, but I'm quite sure there's some stupid achievement for being a pacifist in the game.

Which has got to be the hardest thing to do in Postal 2 - you know - not wanting to at least pour gasoline on some person and light em up.
>>
>>262768915
Yes, yes you can. There's a reason its tagline was "it's only as violent as you are".

AW cannot be completed non-lethally, though, which is another reason why it's a piece of shit.
>>
yeh its up there
>>262768313
not true at all. You are required to kill people in most missions.

Postal 1 did the same, but in a really dark way:

Of course it wasn't, it's just the controversy that made it infamous. Back then people like Jack Thompson calling video games murder simulators were on the rise. So what did RWS do? Make a legit murder simulator.

You need to get into the locker room in the police station to wear the cop suit. It would instantly turn everyone aggressive and make it hard to avoid a painful death as a pacifist.

I was also trying to speed run the game, so I couldn't be bothered to waste time.

You can't wear the cop suit in this difficulty.

It used to be in POSTAL, they removed it a few months ago.
By the way, good job. I could never come close to beating it on postal.

It's not challenging by design though, it's challenging because of shitty development which takes away from it a lot.

provided you know the map well enough, you can just run past everything with minimal damage

Stun Gun. Using pee also helps. And overall not being a dick.

And in moments where people chase you with guns, catnip so you can stroll through them and not give a fuck. Also this >>262776541
