Unless this has all been an absurdly elaborate series of ruses by a network of leakers, you appear to have been right on this one. To be fair to those who've opposed these leaks since day one, we weren't expecting Kojima hadn't learned his lessons from MGS2, or that he'd go full George Lucas.

While the gameplay may still be top tier, which I suspect those glowing reviews are largely rated on, I foresee the story being one a jumping off point for many fans. At least until Konami gets together a development team to prove the series can continue without Kojima at the helm. Because there have been non-Kojima directed games in the franchise which were decent in their own right. For example: Ghost Babel and Portable Ops.
