The Postal franchise has never exactly been a hit with critics. In fact, every game in the Postal series has earned negative reviews, with 2011's Postal 3 especially panned by critics. Over a decade after Postal 3's release, developer Running With Scissors is set to launch Postal 4: No Regerts, which has earned overwhelmingly negative reviews so far.
Early reviews for Postal 4 are being published online, and they indicate that the game has serious problems. IGN gave Postal 4 a 2/10, calling it «cringingly juvenile» and «painful to play.» GameSpot, meanwhile, gave the game a 1/10, calling it «abysmal» and saying that one of its only redeeming qualities is the fact that it eventually ends.

At the time of this writing, Postal 4's review aggregate score is 44 on Metacritic, making it one of the lowest-rated games of all time.

OpenCritic, meanwhile, has the current Postal 4 overall review score even lower than Metacritic, with it currently sitting at a mere 36.
Based on the reviews that have been published so far, it seems the main problems people have with the game are its crass sense of humor and technical problems.

It seems anyone hoping for Postal 4 to suddenly turn the series around will be disappointed.
