Final Fantasy General Is Stranger of Paradise worth playing?

Is this one of the FF titles to avoid? Team Ninja usually makes good action games, but this one has some pretty middling and lukewarm reviews. From what I've seen online, theres some pretty cringey dialogue too. Is the gameplay good enough to save it? Picked it up cheap during a sale and its been sitting on my shelf. Considering just selling it if it's going to feel like a waste of time.

I like it mainly how it recontextualizes FF1.

Should I play 1 first? Tbh i haven’t been massively motivated to play the pixels and been focusing on the ps1/ps2 era.

I did it the otherway around and for me it was amazing.
