Not sure how you can say the world is captivating. To me it feels incredibly confined. YOu're always limited to a few destinations, and navigating across the overworld map is nothing more than moving your guy from one place to another. No incentive to explore. No new creatures to encounter. No new secrets to unlock.
Anyway, that's my 2 cents. I'm not saying I hate the game, I'm just saying that it pales in comparison to its peers. I think its 'value' is helped by its rarity. In other words, I think people like it because they're playing something no one else has. Like "here's this hidden gem that only us hard core gamers know about" And that exclusivity adds to its mystique.
You see people rave less about FF3 (or FF6 if you're a dick about it), even though that was a far far richer game.
