So what about MGS4 being poorly written? All MGS games are poorly written!
Actually MGS3 fixed a lot in Metal Gear Solid's story telling. MGS4 just ruins this all together with its term for ""magic"" aka nanomachines. They force this to keep mentioning nanomachines to the point you think kojima was going ""Ahhh screw this, nanomachines solve EVERYTHING! Nanomachines, nanomachines, nanomachines.""
Also Metal Gear Solid 4 isn't really a stealth game anymore because theres SO many gun fights and rail shooting moments. The fact they gave a weapons arm dealing character to give you as much guns and ammo as possible from anywhere, the risk of being found was just removed all together. The octopus suit is hardly needed in this case because its reduced to running and gunning.
When playing this it just dissapointed me after a grand achievement that was Snake Eater we got this.
