Metal Gear Survive Locks Extra Character Save Slot Behind $10 Paywall
Metal Gear Survive was never going to have it easy -- that much has been clear since the moment it was revealed. But now that the game is actually out, players have been keen to express their disgust with one aspect of the release in particular.
We are, of course, talking about the fact that you need to cough up real world money if you want to create more than one character at a time. To unlock an extra slot, you need to spend 1000 SV coins, these coins being the game's premium currency. 1150 SV coins cost $10/£8 on the PlayStation Store.
Watching them destroy Metal Gear like this has been extremely depressing. I can't believe they are actually doing this, you have to pay for extra character slots in an online game. No, I don't think I will give this game a chance, this is just blatant gamer exploitation by a greedy publisher. Metal Gear is dead, it's never coming back, and that makes me feel awful. Hopefully Konami does the right thing and sells the Metal Gear franchise to someone who can actually make a good game that isn't going to be a soulless money grabbing scheme.
Konami is the EA of Japan.
