I dare say as good as everyone with poor experience from RPG:s would get BORED from this game in an instant.
I actually felt really tired of the game myself first time I played it, and I'm an experienced RPG player.
For some reason, I still thought this game was really fun, despite its relatively slowpaced gameplay.
I even thought it was one of the five best FF:s ever!
I loved the way it reminded me of chess, too.
Why is this game so fun and enjoyable?
I always feel happy while playing it, but I also see why some people think it's tedious.
For me, though, it's awesome.
