So I was reading the review thread on resetera and im now hyped for metal gear survive. It seems to be a fun game after all. A 7/10 in terms of quality. Only costs €40 but its now on my radar and I'll likely get this off psn when its €15 or €20.
Comment from risev on resetera.
"I'm about 17 hours in and it's actually quite good. Someone said the game is 15-20 hours long a few days ago and I don't think that's anywhere near the truth. Looking at the trophy list for the main missions, I'm not sure I'm even half-way through yet. The marketing for this game has been so weird. It made it out to be a co-op game with a tacked-on singleplayer, but it's very much the opposite. It's a single-player game through and through, and I've only unlocked the 2nd co-op mission after 15 hours of play.
Without spoiling anything, let's just say that the "enemy" design in this game is spectacular and extends far beyond the generic zombies that we've seen in the trailers. Base management is also more interesting enjoyable compared to Phantom Pain as you continuously engage in and benefit from things happening in your base. Also, believe it or not, this game has far more large interior locations compared to Phantom Pain, which is a big plus to me since Phantom Pain barely had anything but open spaces past the prologue.
Don't get me wrong, Phantom Pain's opening 15-30 hours are still much better compared to Survive, but Phantom Pain is one of my favorite games of the past decade, and Survive is $20 less."
