I say no.
Not a personal experience but a friend of mine.
Basically the gameplay is unbalanced, meaning that enemies at one point jump from super easy and then "last only 1 round" hard. Good if you want a challenge but annoying if you actually wanna beat the game and have fun.
My friend said the way you fought was whack, controlling like 6 groups with like 5 people, so you have like 20-30 people you have to control. Fun? Tell yourself that when you fight those hard enemies and wasting items to help those that are dying.
I would say rent and see how you like yourself but that is a waste of money too.
