Absolutely a fantastic experience from top to bottom, although my satisfaction with the combat started to wane toward the end. The humor is top notch, emotional beats hit hard, and the protagonist may be a top 10 contender for me. He's just that good.

I enjoyed the grind aspects overall, they were relatively simple and fun to engage with, generally filled with easy mini games that had their own special feeling. The Underground Dungeons I found largely bland and uninspired, in contrast to the dungeon runs as a part of the story which I found unique and cool approaches to them in a realistic world. This game makes me excited to continue the series.
