Is Paradise Lost worth picking up?
>>
It seems more or less like the same quality as the original game so yeah, I'd recommend it. I haven't finished it but it's cool so far.

Funny thing, the game has one of those mark and execute guns you can build up kills with and do mark and execute and I was killing people with it to see if it actually did what it said or if it was a joke and at some point I triggered the Dude putting the gun away and saying "nah, just kidding" or something like that. I thought it was a joke but apparently the gun does have that ability. I don't know what was up with what happened to me.
>>
Personally, I loved it. But then again I love the whole series. I would recommend it without hesitation if you liked the rest.

Also, I was pleased to see they finally delivered the June 2016 update 2 days ago. "worth the wait".
>>

What did that update add?

So they're remaking the first Postal then? That's what it looks like from that video. That's pretty cool though, I never played the first one. Seems like Hatred was kind of trying to be similar to the first Postal from what I've seen of both.

I hope it's good.
>>
>>343479102
Wait it already came out. Not sure how I missed that. I guess the thing they added is still cool though.
>>
>>343479102
They already remade it, its on Steam. The first game was nothing like Postal 2, it was just a less edgy Hatred with some nightmarish cards in between the levels.

It was okay.
>>
>>343479393
What's the point of the thing they added in PL then? I thought it was for announcing the game but it seems like it's just a short snippet meant to be funny.
>>
>>343479102
The remake already came out.

But in the original game, from 2003, there's a joke that part of the mall was re-opening in 2016 June. And they actually added something there 13 years later.
>>
>>343480182
Oh, okay. I don't remember that being said. That's cool.

Wonder what RWS will make when/if they make a new game. I don't think they've made anything besides Postal 1 and 2 so it'll be interesting to see in what direction they go if it's not just another Postal game.
>>
>>343480461
Paradise Lost only came out a year ago, and P2 has some surpisingly regular minor updates. I don't know if they will make a new game, but I wouldn't be surprised to see new content.
>>
>>343481018
Paradise Lost came out in 1667.
>>
>>343480461
RWS are pretty cool guys, I wonder why they're still working with the old Postal 2 instead of making something really new on Unreal 4 or some shit.

>seemingly unrelated video is from a RWS head

>>343480182
is it true the remake doesn't have the school level and toned down the other more "extreme" elements? 1st postal is pretty brutal

Wtf does RWS even do nowadays? They just made the Postal games, that's it. How do they stay in business?
>>
>>343482547
Lewd stuff.
>>
I don't think it's a very popular aspect of Postal 2, but how is its multiplayer?
>>
>>343477804
Is that the one where you can kill NotTimSchafer in it?
>>
>>343483082
Probably a piece of shit thanks to that hit detection
>>
>>343483245
Is this him?

>that satire
>>
>>343483678
Honestly with how much shit about modern games that's strewn around the game RWS better be careful they don't fall into it too because rolling it on pretty thick.

>>343484201
Yeah, I mean it's UE2, but they still have some of the better blood in video games. Reminds me of what Overgrowth is doing but this was like a decade earlier.
>>
Whats the order?
Base game > Apocalypse Weekend > Paradise Lost

Yeah

>>343484201
>>343484275
No, no. That's a cool effect.
>>343483974
This single vertical line of pixels in the blood splatter texture being smeared across the side of the bookcase just upsets me.

>that lorum ipsum under the buttholes

I wish they just had a normal difficulty selection instead of the 10 options you get. The gunplay did not feel very balanced or fun and I think that's to blame.
>>
>>343481923
They changed the schoolyard ending to a church ending, from what I've seen.
Other than that it's pretty much the same, just with better controls.

Postal 2 version of zombies is actually interesting to fight, if only they didn't shoot

It's actually everywhere when you look for it. I had never even heard of lorem ipsum before your post.

>>343484996
Not-Tim Schafer's game company.
>>
>>343485097
>>343483678
This is hilarious, how do they not get sued?
>>
>>343485097
Why are no other devs or commentators this audacious about mocking hacks like Tim Schafer and Con-Man?

They've been doing this shit since 2003 so I'm sure they know the limits. They change just enough to make it not illegal.

>>343485285
Because most other devs would get attacked for it I imagine. RWS is pretty small and everyone already knows that they do this from Postal 2.

They had similar things in the original game but it's a lot easier to make fun of the shit happening these days than back in 2003.

UT didn't really deserve shit flinging though

With all the political shit and isis and everything, we need a Postal 4 immediately
>>
>>343486118
>postal 4
we need postal 3 first
>>
>>343486118
>>343486168
I think it would funny if they went straight to Postal 4 rather than making their own Postal 3 to replace the shitty one.
