Avira's goal in life appears to be fufilling every stereotype of a transgender goon, and by god is she doing an admirable job of it. Shine on you crazy diamond.

I saw him posting Postal 2 stuff in his tweets "to get back against the evil SJWs" and made a wrong connection. So they're both misogynists, but unconnected. It's worth pointing out this sort of stuff so we don't support hateful people. Parody feminist enemies are in bad taste but not necessarily misogynist. Like the elves in that Duke 3D expansion pack for example. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Holy gently caress, nobody cares about social issues in this thread. Keep your weird loving obsession with patrolling rancid video game developer beliefs to your own cork conspiracy board.

The whole loving point of the Postal series is to offend people with things like using cats as supressors. Osama clones attacking a church and doing Indian chants, massacring anti-video game protesters, and pissing in a teenage girl's mouth. If youre raging about how RWS are gross shitlords and try to call them out, congratulations, you've done exactly what they want you to do; get pissed off.

I never thought I'd see the day that grown people were sincerely defending Postal's bargain basement gameplay and sub-South Park Fanfiction level of humor.

If you want proof of that, you're welcome to look at his Twitter account approximately whenever. You're talking about a poo poo game made by douchebags for douchebags for the express purpose of being as vulgar, tasteless, disgusting, and offensive as possible, were you seriously expecting them to not support Gamergate? Postal 2 is unfunny and terrible, don't play it.

Postal 2 is loving dumb and the shooting is mediocre but I love it anyways. The boomerang machete, urine mechanics, and terrible jokes make my inner edgy 13 year-old giggle like a schoolgirl. The Dude's voice acting brings a smile to my face. Totally paying full price for the expansion to support RWS so they can continue to produce horrible poo poo.

I'm hoping to do a pacifist run soon to see how different it is compared to shooting everybody up.

I followed the Postal 2 development closely because, as a highschool aged white male with a penchant for nu-metal and a crude/rude 'tude, I was the poster child for the target demo. But I never ended up buying the game until it came to Steam in the last year or so. What I did do, however, is listen to an entirely unreasonable amount of the band Ph8, which was featured on the soundtrack and in several "Making Of" videos. I was just able to pick a song off a Youtube search from a vaguely familiar title, listen to four seconds of it, and instantly know "Oh yeah, that's the song from when they hung out with Gary Coleman on an automatic weapons range!" These are the things my bad brain has seen fit to remember.
