Just as we figured, Schreier's reporting that Physint was going to be going over budget and was missing deadlines. Sony also didn't like that it wouldn't be a permanently exclusive title.
We thought MGS4 had long cutscenes lol. But Schreier mentions, "Business in Japan is all about relationships, and some of the PlayStation executives who have worked closest with Kojima over the last few decades are no longer at the company"
It's also a case of different leadership not willing to put up with an ego like that of Kojima.

You called down the thunder, now reap the whirlwind
