sequel had a better story, but honestly the first game's puzzles were much better.
It depends on what you mean by greatest of all time. It had a dramatic impact on gaming culture, sold well, and led to a sequel that was universally praised. I think its core gameplay was pretty solid and quite innovative, but the game was too short imo to be lauded purely for its gameplay.

Overall, i think it is one of the greatest games of all time
Yeah, the Sequel improved on everything.

I am having reconciling this opinion with reality considering Portal is one of the least boring games ever made
Not really. it was essentially a tech demo. I was expecting a new Half Life with the portal gun and instead we got Portal 2.
Yes, and I prefer it to Portal 2. It has a stronger impact with a more concise story and more natural puzzles. Though the gels in Portal 2 are pretty great.
Touch fuzzy get dizzy.

Half Life would be boring with a portal gun.
