All the Postal 1997 original beta screens, from what i've been able to uncover so far (with transcripts):

(Note: This text also appears for the Good Morning / what would later become the Home level in the 1997 developer showcase, thank you to KeshaFilms on youtube for the clearer recording)

The Construction Site

10/17/97 The demons are real and they are here. Fate has delivered me into their midst and given me the opportunity to save my species from a million years of dominion.

Parade of Disasters

10/18/97 I can hear the rumble, the thunder of drums in the distance. If i find them there, then i will know the Old One was right.

The Junk Yard

10/17/97 In the hands of the Old One, I am a weapon of destruction spitting death all directions to slay the enemies of mankind.

Though the voiceover was also still there so maybe they decided to lean more to that?)#(god i can not wait for the documentary i want so much information forever)
