Top Comments of this video!! :3
I think the point of Kojima’s quote is that when you strip all of the spicy and weird elements in Metal Gear Games, it’s root story and overarching messages are always about politics and espionage. There’s a lot of weird things in Metal Gear but they’re never the center story at hand, unlike how Survive is a zombie tower defense game in story and gameplay all the way through.

Rather than zombies, I think the game would have been more well-received had the premise been something along the lines of a soldier trapped behind enemy lines having to escape/survive against overwhelming odds, with a focus on stealth and survival mechanics with the player having to manage their hunger, thirst and sleep while also avoiding enemy patrols. I'd have certainly given it shot in that scenario.

The one thing that really stood out to me when the game was coming out was despite the fact Konomi did hand out review copies, no one could even play it or review it until after release day, not due to any review embargos, but because the game was online only and the servers weren't up until like a day after release.

The thing about the people with telekinesis, the cyborgs, the vampire and the ghost in Metal Gear Solid is that they were being used as weapons or assets by their goverments or the leader of their faction, just like Big Boss or Solid Snake were used, and it's a reference to the Cold War era when military was looking for people with special abilities to work with (or for) them. In Survive you are in an alternate dimension filled with zombies because everyone likes TWD at the moment.

I like a good survival game, but god damn, Konami really shot themselves in the foot of releasing a zombie survival game immediately after splitting with Kojima. It doesn't matter how playable the game is, Zombie saturation was at peak when MG survive was released, booting your star dev to chase a trend that your IP had no prior connection to was dumb. I don't know why anyone would pay for a game that's on life support, it's amazing Konami kept it up for as long as it is.

yea things like always-online connectivity and "the game advances while youre not playing it" mechanics are what kept me from even attempting it. im sure there was some cathartic experiences to be had, but im someone who sees the DD mother base cinematic every time i play mgs5 so everybody would be dead in Survive because id touch it maybe a couple times a year at most

I played the online mode of this with a friend.
Fun fact: If you don't play any story mode at all, you have a shitton of locked features in the online modes, so I was just kinda running around with the starting gear and slapping zombies.
The best part of the game, by far, is the fact that the Fox Engine lets you play baseball with thrown grenades.

I read a comment the other day that made me think hard to myself so I included a Song List and will try to do that going forward! FINALLY, Metal Gear Survive is done! That was... one of the longest videos on the channel as well as some of the most effort. Let's just say... I didn't sleep last night. Also to date this video, i'm gonna take a nap and then watch ric flair's last match with bated breath. QUESTION OF THE DAY! After watching this, do you think you'll try Metal Gear Survive?
