What's your opinion on Ares V?

IMO, the Energia launch system was the best launch system ever developed. Its flexability was amazing. The Ares V is a step in the right direction towards an American Energia type launcher, but the Direct Launcher seems even closer. Instead of only two engines, why don't they design it to have 4 or 5 like the Ares V is planned to have?
