Everything Trying to Kill You: Though in the second and third games, it depends on the player's actions.It doesn't help that Postal 2 is an open world first person shooter while Postal 1 is a linear isometric shooter. This causes many surprises by fans seeking out the first game after playing the second one, expecting the same level of humor. Early-Installment Weirdness: Postal 1 doesn't play itself for laughs much like Postal 2, Postal III, and Postal 4: No Regerts do, being a lot more grim, dark and at times even frightening.Denser and Wackier: The first game was played relatively straight, whereas the games from 2 onward are basically the video game equivalent to South Park.Deconstruction: All of the games in the franchise can be deconstructions of the 'Murder Simulator' genre and of it's own games- Postal 1 looking like an absolutely serious and downright chilling examination of the mind of a spree killer and what it would be like being as mentally ill as him (Hint: Not fun) as a deconstruction of Postal 2 and III, while 2 and III, in turn, are completely silly and ludicrous deconstructions of Postal 1 by mocking the edgy approach to these games and playing the atrocities off as giggle-worthy.Running with Scissors was founded in Tucson AZ and continues to operate there. Creator Provincialism: 2, III, and 4: No Regerts are all set in fictional areas in Arizona.Any 'illegals' crossing from Mexico are nothing but Al Qaeda wearing piss-poor disguises. Bush memorial border fence, which is used to keep Americans from illegally entering Mexico to look for jobs instead of the other way around. The place is a border town and houses the G.W. It's worse in Catharsis, as the global economic meltdown has shot gas prices through the roof.The police are corrupt, and all the townspeople appear to be idiots and/or straight-up psychopaths. Crapsack World: No normal person would want to live in Paradise.Black Comedy: While the first game was far more gritty and took itself more seriously, the later games moved into this territory and reveled in it without ever looking back.Badass Longcoat: The Postal Dude's attire of choice, with Cool Shades and, in the third game, fingerless gloves.And friendly AI also have problems with pathfinding and following you, making escort missions even more frustrating than they already could be. Enemies won't shoot you even if you're right in front of them or sometimes they will completely ignore your existence even while you're attacking them. Artificial Stupidity: Taken to absurd levels in the third installment.
