You can be confident of a number of things based off studio history and baseline level of quality, but you do need a very consistent and strong set of data for that. For instance, I find Monster Hunter to be a franchise that's relatively safe to pre-order.
As long as you are not a player that's married to the iterative unique mechanics in each entry and you know you love the base gameplay you can reasonably expect a certain amount of quality, and that's been true for about two decades now. That being said, you couldn't say this about most devs or series. I'd also argue for any games released by Kojima as long as you really enjoy his outlook, style, and passion.
You cannot know exactly what each of his games contain before playing, but you can be assured that there will be a baseline level of "they really gave a shit and made something novel and interesting" in his games.
