Paid Save Slots

Of course, there are also things games have stopped doing simply due to how ridiculous it is. Metal Gear Survive, Konami’s disastrous survival spin-off of the series, offered one character slot in the early going. If you wanted more, you had to pay $10 each. Even MMOs like World of Warcraft, which have excessive monetization on top of their monthly subscription and paid expansions, offered 50 character slots for years and recently increased it to 60 for free. Needless to say, this “feature” died a quick death at the hands of Konami.
