Because the game doesn't felate the protag enough. It's sad, but otaku seem to need that.
I found it pretty fun though, and also liked the female pov ero that the game had quite a bit of. Something a little else. Something that probably rubs some people the wrong way.

And if you like gameplay, the game is basically what Fire Emblem should be, just on smaller scale. I still don't understand why fucking Nintendo made up the crappy phoenix mode for new shitters that can't handle perma-death for units, completely changing the playstyle of the game with that (units are no longer considered very precious and you can just zerg), while Alice Soft actually had to prevent perma-death due to way less characters, but added the same feeling by HEAVILY rewarding not losing any unit. Guess Alice Soft > Intelligent Systems / Nintendo.
I also really liked how the enemy comes to you, so you don't have the crappy "one by one" system Fire Emblem loves so much where enemies just wait. The game hints at how the enemy comes as well, and you usually have bonus goals that do reward moving out and intercepting certain enemies as well. It actually combines offense and defense very well. Fire Emblem never did that in the games I played of the series. The little base building part is also rather interesting. You always build a base for up to two fights and depending on how greedy you are, you can build defensive buildings or money buildings (that give money at the end of a stage, if they don't get destroyed by the enemy). The game isn't particularly hard, if you aren't that greedy, but it can get very fun if you indeed are and just want all the money for upgrades, more weapons and whatnot. Though depending on your taste, being able to hit 100% evasion by the end of the game, may not be very good game design. I kinda liked it though. It's not like that's just for free all the time and on any tile anyway. And if you WOULD get hit, the unit is essentially done, as healing doesn't really exist and evaders don't tank well.

In other words: I think it's a genuinely good game, if you don't mind the low amount of playable characters and it being maybe 30 hours long. (though older Fire Emblem games aren't really longer either) It's just fun.
