At the end, is FFXIII good enough or not?

I really liked it. Personally so far think it's better then FFX. They made a ton of improvements.

The story is actually somewhat clear, why you fight enemies makes more sense then usual (at least so far), NO random encounters!, amazing combat system, tons of mini bosses so you can actually play around with the combat system.

The game looks amazing, and the characters are not as annoying as I thought they would be, there also seems to be a reduction in cheesiness that are usually found in jrpgs.

For me this game is what Final Fantasy is all about. Then again I've only played FF7, FF10 and a bit of FF12.

no random encounter, does that means i cant grind to overpower mobs ahead? or coming in and out of an area respawns enemies?

You can't grind early on, once you get to chapter 11, everything changes though!

Basically, the way levelling up works is like the sphere grid, but for each different specialisation you have a different grid (slightly different for each character), but you cannot keep progressing more and more, as story events unlock different barriers in the system. Once you get to chapter 11, it is expanded so much that you are going to have to grind for some time to reach the end as the cost of upgrading sky rockets.

Enemies do respawn, so you can do a little bit of grinding, but other than a few areas, it is best to wait until later on
