I mean, I enjoy it, but usually games are supposed to just work. Most of the difficulty of DF, at least historically, comes from trying to work around the hard edges and broken bits. Adventure mode is also pretty aimless and depressing, and Legends mode isn't even really a game.
I'd break it down in more detail, but I'm not really a great video game designer either. Most other people certainly agree that it's not very good as a game. Tarn even has said things to that effect.
