Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
178 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The only reason this remaster gets a 5/10 is because of the sheer brilliance of the underlying game—the flawless narrative, the deeply moving characters, and the timeless story are still there.
Graphics

57 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style is timeless in my opinion and really didn't need a remaster and certainly isn't worth upgrading from the original.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
51 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Obviously the game's time travel mechanics are supernatural, but underneath that there's a very human message about growing up, looking back, and realizing how quickly time passes.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The fall colors, the hopefulness of a new school year, and the ever so moody soundtrack.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The character design and personalities are amazing and they make you actually want to like or hate them.
