Really not sure what you're asking... (Gaming)

How much "Hey! Let's do audio logs! Naughty Dog does it and they're awesome so hey!" is going on?

Audio Logs have been around for a good long while (Bioshock cause a huge resurgence back in 07, I think). I'm not sure what you're saying...

It's really easy to see why they suck after you play a great story baed series that introduced them later. Compare MGS V to any of the older games.

I dunno. MGS has always essentially had its audio logs front and center with the random Codec conversations. Hours upon hours of audio-based dialogue that didn't pertain to the immediate plot, but served as world-building? sounds like audio logs to me (props go to the B&B backstories that you had to listen to after you already offed the enemies, reducing the impact that it would have had on you had you known it beforehand)...
