One save file has been a thing since the first one. There is a new game plus and you can obviously delete your save and start again. The character edit things are in game and fairly common, already have a few without looking. RC are also earned extremely easily in game and the only purpose there beyond some cosmetic glasses is to add allies into your party that are high above your level. Its just another type of gold. I have no idea what you're talking about with the "insert dollar to continue" thing. Also the jail keys are incredibly easy to get, you can buy them for like 3000g which is very cheap (early game starter weapons are triple that). All the mtx just seem like incredibly easy and quick to get shit for people who have more money than sense.
And it was stupid then too. No modern single player RPG should limit players to a single save file. I understand there are many great RPGs that do, and I still think they shouldn't.
Making players play through tens of hours of campaign as a character that they want to delete is a pretty bad decision on capcom's part.
No you cannot. There is no option to delete your save data within the game. There is a workaround if you play on PC that involves turning off cloud saves, opening the game's files and deleting your save data from the file explorer, starting a new game, then turning cloud saves back on, but that is a hack, not a feature.
I've seen plenty of people say that the character customization stuff is super cheap and super available in the game. I just don't get why it costs an in-game currency in the first place on this single player, offline rpg. Seems like it should cost nothing within the game to change your hairstyle or whatever. Like, this doesn't even fit in with the hardcore, no fast travel stuff. It's just a pointless in-game currency sink. Virtually every other game that allows post-creation character customization allows it for free. I just don't see the point in making it cost something that you can pay for with real life dollars.
