One save file has been a thing since the first one.

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.

There is a new game plus

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.

and you can obviously delete your save and start again.

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.
