He wants to be the David Lynch

But yeah, he is closest to George Lucas. The more control he exerted the worse and worse the series got.

Except 5 is because konami wouldn't let him finish and death stranding is fun despite all logic after chapter 3 . and mgs3 is the peak and didn't have anyone else meddling in it.

If you're going for a serious answer, he's the nolan. He gets bored doing the same thing, has a very idealized way viewing how the medium should be enjoyed, and has consistent themes across his games that if you look to closely don't really make sense. And while you might not love every game, you can't say they were technically flawed.

But again the right answer is

It wasn't Konami's fault that Kojima was pissing away money and time on 5.

This is up 1 million from the 5 million shipment figure that Konami announced back in October 2015. Konami's video game division, which it calls Digital Entertainment, posted revenue of 93.4 billion ($771.8 million) for the period and a profit of 25.5 billion ($210.8 million).Jan 29, 2016

I wish people would stop this whole "Konami wouldn't let him finish" thing.

What was there left to do at that point? He had five years. At that point all that should be left is polish. No amount of polish would have saved that boring map. The game was also extremely fucking polished at release, so what wasn't finished exactly?

Then you hear all of the stories about how Kojima nixed Battle Gear for being "too overpowered" and how Kingdom of the Flies was cut early in development to not take away from the Venom Snake twist.

And that's not even getting into the awful awful story that is 100% Kojima.

Konami is not without fault, I'm sure, but I wish people would stop acting like MGS V's missteps were all the fault of upper management at Konami (something that Kojima was a part of as a VICE PRESIDENT of the company)
