Its not the 7 that is the problem, its the fact that the reviewer doesnt get the game and he it holding it against FE.
An example of a hopeless statement in my opinion:
"the overall problem with Enchantress's early game: you have to go out and explore and gain experience, but you are too often punished for doing so."
Is he suggesting that FE should be like a docile zoo where you are in no danger? He is also bashing the start of the game, which people here on the forum seems to be enjoying the most. I just find the whole review to be strange. He is commenting on the AI, but it doesnt sound like he has played enough to make his claims.
