It’s worth noting that the multiplayer’s ‘easy’ missions start with level 20 enemies to give you some idea of where this pitches its overall challenge. While the very existence of this will likely offend the hardcore MGS fan, it’s a decent enough take on a survival craft-em-up with enough personality and freedom in its options to please anyone who likes tackling a challenge on their own terms.
The sloppy narrative and poor character building would be a drag in any game, but being part of an illustrious franchise, Metal Gear Survive is going to be harshly judged in comparison to its ancestors. I was able to get past it because I enjoyed the fundamental gameplay enough, but those who were solely in for the Metal Gear connection are going to be salty.
Though it's not totally devoid of positives, Metal Gear Survive suffers the curse of being wholly unremarkable in pretty much every way. Bland survival gameplay, unoriginal ideas and unresponsive melee combat make for a tedious experience. Metal Gear Survive is certainly a functional game, but someone forgot to add the "fun".
