If you’re planning to consistently use two weapons, it sure is! Here’s why:
“You gain a +1 bonus to AC while you are wielding a separate melee weapon in each hand.”
This half makes up for the lack of a shield.
“You can use two-weapon fighting even when the one-handed melee weapons you are wielding aren’t light.”
Ultimately, this allows you to trade up d6s for d8s (including versatile weapons, so if you switched it up and stowed/threw one weapon, you can have a d10 weapon and use your bonus action another way).
“You can draw or stow two one-handed weapons when you would normally be able to draw or stow only one.”
Your two weapons basically count as one for purposes of drawing/stowing, which will benefit you if you have a particularly strict DM.
If you’re not going all in on this two-weapon deal, though, you’re probably better off sticking with the ability score increase or another feat.
