When does MGS4 start to get really engaging?

Second half of act 3, after the long cutscene after the sneaking in act 3. Unfortunately, the rest of the game gets easier after the act 3 boss fight.

I think being able to walk around as if you're a one-man militia has something to do with that.

Kojima really should have upped the difficulty on Solid Normal. Japanese audiences may be bad at shooters but for a veteran American player, the second half of MGS4 was ridiculously easy.

 

 

 lol, japanese audience may be bad at shooters but they are the best MGS players in the world. They hold all the world records in all MGS games so far.

You obviously missed the point of MGS4. You get higher scores for not killing anyone and especially not triggering any alert phases rather than running and gunning so shooting abilities are pretty non essential in a proper MGS4 run.
