Metal Gear Survive's Reputation Doesn't Match What Players Found After Trying It

@GenePark posted that he once repeated YouTuber criticism of Metal Gear Survive without playing it. After trying the game a few years ago he described it as a well realized Stardew Valley game mixed with Metal Gear V mechanics. @EMannLand suggested the reception might have been less toxic if released as Metal Gear Online DLC. @Marcodmeatball noted it was the first post-Kojima Konami title. @Nitroid called the co-op mode a riot for summoning Metal Gear to fight waves. @FPSthetics and @empty_tone both said they genuinely enjoyed their time with it despite the launch timing.
