How is FFXIII's story?

[The Fury]

It's a bit convoluted, it spans all 3 games and the ending is absolute JRPG goodness with a mindblowing revelation.

All in all pretty good and standard Final Fantasy fare. Dat ending tho.

The story of FFXIII is all that is in question here. I don't base FFXs story on FFX and X-2 along side each other. FFXIII's story, no matter how good you think it was, was badly told.
