Kojima wanted out of the franchise after Solid 2 and pretty much every subsequent game since.

Konami are asses to work for and Kojima kept pushing the envelope for what they'd let him do for every game he made with them. MGS5 was where they drew the line in terms of scope and budget (MGS4 cost like $40m to make and god knows what MGS5 would have cost by the end of it) and aside from the fact that he didn't get to finish it, he was probably more relieved than anything to be free of them.

At least Konami makes a decent slot/pokie machine nowadays. They give Aristocrat a run for their money.
