It's a good video game. The problem is that the fan base has rightfully had their expectations set higher than that. The story in it is told very poorly, not very good, and is a bastardization of all the characters it tries to portray. It has no business being affiliated to the story telling of the first 3 games. The second game literally makes Orwell look like an amateur crybaby.

It doesn't help that Kojima was literally so burned out on the series that his main goal in making it was to get fired.

Never heard thr bit about him wanting to get fired. I heard he had his hands tied by Konami cause he was taking too long. Also heard this game was how he always wanted metal gear to be (gameplay Wise. Being able to infiltrate from many different ways) but tech was too limited back in the day
