(I haven't played it yet, but) you can play it however you really want, but it is less story driven and more "free" than stuff like Ni No Kuni. I guess it kinda depends why you like RPGs...is it because of the story or because you just like the big world with lots to do and combat? If it is the former, Fantasy Life probably isn't your deal, but if you don't mind a looser structure to your RPGs and just want some fun gameplay, check it out.
