MGS5 was a fantastic game. I am not sure how I feel about what happened between him and Konami. On the one hand, it's a shame that they released something that was unfinished. From the bits and pieces that remain of the unfinished parts, it seems as if it would have been even better. Poetically, the ending left many fans with the "Phantom Pain" of having lost a part of their beloved franchise. Personally it was a really strange but beautiful experience to go through.

In terms of the business side of things, if it's true that he and his team were behind schedule and their productivity was apparently low with no foreseeable end in sight, I could probably see why Konami would make the decision to force him to market with whatever he could finish.

As for the details, I hear things got very ugly between them, which is a shame. I read in places that Kojima himself was not really too interested in making more MGS games, so regardless of what happened maybe it was for the best. I hope he's able to build a similarly interesting universe again. I will probably try Death Stranding when it comes to PC.
