    Pumping the shotguns isn't too out there. The stock is against his body, he lightly tosses each to keep them in place as he moves his trigger hand up to the pump, pumps it against his torso, then lightly tosses it again in order to quickly transition back to the trigger grip.

    Feels like there's an aspect of improvisation that is missing from this game. The Postal Dude was just a guy trying to live his life and shit happened to him, and stuff like him having a dedicated piss button or using a cat as a silencer sounded like something a person going postal would do. By this point you would expect stuff like being able to grab rocks and bottles or chase people with a lawnmower, but the game seems stuck in time.

    Back during one of the first few streams RWS did of them playing the early alphas, I asked them if they’d ever do a weekend expansion like they’d done before, and they said it would definitely be something they’d like to do, but they had to finish the main game first.
    Two year’s later, and here we are. Personally, I think that instead of the weekend being a cobbled together mess of a linear plot, it should have all three Postal Dudes splitting apart, and deciding to kill one another.
    We then spent Saturday switching between all three dudes, as they set up their master plans to kill the other two, with Sunday having all their plans fail horribly and comedically.

    I think the entire Postal game series is just a circle of Hell built specifically around the Postal Dude, and he’s just accepted an endless time loop of being screwed over, doing chores, and just the chaos that is rural Arizona. But, like I’ve said, he’s just so used to this crazy purgatory that nothing surprises him, and his calm expression and monotone voice fully proves this. Rick Hunter really performs this role well, his voice perfectly captivates a man who’s aware of being in a never-ending purgatory. Or, this is a special circle of hell where *he’s* the punishment.

Learning the correct dose for the type of trip you want and dealing with the unpredictability of DXM is definitely not for the faint of heart.
