Am I the only one not putting the whole blame for this mess on Konami? Should Kojima be blamed too? I'm basing my standpoint on his role In the company.

And a video about Kojima's responsibility as an artist:

No. We really don't know what has happened between Kojima and Konami. It's was/is a witch hunt against Konami. Everyone is so sure Kojima is a victim and act like Kojima did not do any mistakes. I think there is a very real possibility Kojima's ego grew way too big and could not take a NO from anyone. We really don't know who's to blame.

Exactly. Problems (and life) is not black and white, it's grey. And in this matter it's obvious if you have an open mind. Fans attachment to Kojima and his legacy stops them from also blaming him. Instead it's easier to blame Konami.

Doesn't change the fact Konami are turning this into a highschool drama, trying to blot Kojima's name out of existence, something they have no right to do even if he is a dick.  They could have been professionals about this and just parted ways like gentlemen.  Instead they are stripping his name from MGSV where at all possible and wouldn't even allow his name to be mentioned in interviews at E3.  Not that they refused to answer questions about him, you couldn't even say "Kojima."  And that's pathetic and petty, I don't care what's going on.
