The story isn't great, some levels feel a bit labyrinthine with winding, illogical paths littered throughout and it can be tough starting out. Encounters are not random however, and grinding isn't required; The closest I came was repeatedly running harder areas to figure out how best to utilise the metric fuckton of combat options I unlocked and how to approach specific enemy types. That, and because it has one of the most enjoyable and rewarding combat systems I've encountered.
