I was the same. Only nearly a decade later did I give MGS3 a go, and was not disappointed - it was more like MGS1 than MGS2 and is one of the best in the series.

MGS4 follows right in MGS2 footsteps and I would say better skipped. Peace Walker is surprisingly good, although parts of it towards the end get tedious. MGS5 goes back to weirdness, although a particular sniper's story line has some merit to it.

I actually think that Ghost Babel (the Japanese name) on the Game Boy Color is a really underrated game. It's worth checking out if you have avoided it because of it being a portable game. It has a fairly elaborate story, a delayed intro scene, and actually pretty decent graphics for the GBC.
