The script was horrible despite the cast of talented actors.
I'm not talking about the plot itself but the delivery, the exposition dumps, the stupid dialogues, it's a catastrophe, even by videogame standards, which makes me ask myself whether Kojima was always like that but he had other people keeping him in check or something…
And unfortunately the gameplay couldn't redeem anything, the gameplay was tedious and unfun. MGS is fun, you infiltrate places by various means, you have a lot of cool gadgets, there is tension. The story was silly but it had memorable characters.
in DS, everything sucks except the concept, the idea, the concept is interesting, the execution is bad.
Yes, Kojima tried to be innovative, but it just doesn't work because it fails at the most basic things regarding gameplay and story telling.
The game is beautiful though.

He is an "idea guy". Like George Lucas and many many other. He needs somebody else to makes sense of his ideas.
