Yup, it definitely seems that the more people started throwing the word legend around the more out there Kojima's ideas got. Don't get me wrong it worked, MGS 2, 3 and even 4 were amazing games. It seems with MGSV though nobody seemed to say "well we've got the gameplay and engine down, now where's the story we're known for creating?".

Obviously opinions are gonna differ, but I haven't seen 1 person say "MGSVs was just as good as previous games". Which is terribly sad to me. Mainly because as much as I want to defend Kojima for the previous masterpieces imo that he made, I just can't defend the story of MGSV. It seemed so needlessly watered down in every aspect.

I'm hoping for a miracle with Survive, I want it to be good. I'm just not at all feeling what I've seen or heard of it so far. I just have this horrible feeling it's either gonna be a generic survival game or some mindless zombie killing simulator. But who knows, I'm an optimist by nature, so until I see it's terrible with my own eyes, I'll hope for the best.
