He was just a producer on that series. The actual writing and directing was left to other people since presumably he was busy directing MGS2 and 3 at the time.
The reason ZOE2 feels so much closer to Kojima's other work than the first one is because it was written and directed by Shuyo Murata, who collaborated closely with Kojima on several of the MGS games and was even co-director of MGS4.

I guess you could say he's gone on a permanent vacation.
This dude is always on point. It's unreal.

I hope that Kojima either walked out of the Konami backwards while flipping them off or skipped like he is 7 and its his last day of school for the summer.
Can't wait to see what Kojima does next, even if its a game that falls outside of my interest. I just want to see what the result is of all of this.

So what happened with that head transplant guy theory?

I remember he found out about the thread and was pissed off that Konami apparently used his likeness, and then they had to respond saying it was just a coincidence or something. It was such a blur.

Lets hope Konami doesn't buy out his new employer like Ubisoft did with Patrice...

Then I guess he would have been an insubordinate employee who never made deadlines, but still made the company millions upon millions of dollars?

Hooray they are free! Konami can fucking rot for all I care. I have never witnessed a company self destruct in such a fast time. EA of old have nothing on the shit these fuckers have done. The sooner they go out of business and their IP's are sold off the better. Unfortunately the universe is a cunt and they will probably make more money from gambling than they ever did from gaming.

I think we would have heard more about it if this were true at all. Just look at his new studio once we know more concrete details: if a bunch of ex konami peeps join up at his studio, doesn't that mean he was the opposite of what you said?

Whatever Kojima chooses to do next, I'm curious if he'll change genres. Would fans be happier with Kojima doing something along the lines of MGS or would they be supportive of him doing something entirely different?
Shh, don't ruin the lore, man.

Considering the fact his team is extremely devoted to him, and by all accounts, is a super nice guy, I really doubt him being an asshole.

i used to read those "What If?" comics too
What if Konami didn't take Kojima's name off the box. I guess all those workers leaving with Kojima must be all shitty too.

Good.
Ahaha, why do they all start with upper case except for the "fuck you"?
Cue the JPG's and GIF's. Can't wait to see the rest of his legacy...

Maybe because when Konami says "fuck you" to their customers, Konami loses their capital?

Good, now Microsoft needs to give him a blank check and the perfect dark ip to reboot the series.

It makes you think he's really Kaz. Took me like 3 minutes when I saw my first one. Great stuff
Hideo Kojima probably liked the big comfy couch, but when real shit happens in your life, you usually respond with real shit yourself. I can't wait

Genre who knows, but I don't see him moving too far away from the heavily cinematic styled, character driven story lines. He just loves aping movies too much. And I think he knows fans expect that out of him by now.

Kojima has a bright future. Konami I am not so sure.
I hope to God he does something different. He's been doing MG for 30 years now and no doubt has a million other ideas he'd like to explore. I'd be mad if he gets stuck making more stealth games.
I hope he picks a new genre and goes ham on it in the way only Kojima can.
Every time. This account is on point EVERY. TIME.
