Those are the key components to the game. Gameplay, story, characters. These are the top 3 in most games, but most notably in RPG's. Sure the music is awesome, sure it has a nice aesthetic, but these are far seconds to the major three, and having explored the three what are we left with? Standard gameplay, standard characters, and an original but mediocre story.

To compare to other games, FF does much better on the type of gameplay. Outside of running into things on the map, it simply has more things to do, more depth, and is more fleshed out, whereas CT, the actual components to the gameplay are pretty standard and pretty light in content. To compare to other types of gameplay and this is getting into opinion I think that non-turnbased is better, in the case of SoM, SD3, etc.
The characters are dead average with other RPG's. One problem is that many other RPG's of the time have the same cutouts, the same tropes, and the same general type of characters. But since CT follows suit, that makes it just like them; AKA average.
The story is hard to compare without sounding like pure opinion. But from a huge time travel fan, my honest and well-educated opinion is that it's original for a game, but not well-done.

I feel like I'm going in circles, so I'll stop here. Hopefully, this rant makes sense to people, and they don't just start screaming "OPINIONS OPINIONS"

That game is not as bad as people make it out to be.

Please don't yell at me.

Green and purple is a common color scheme. Stop associating it with /v/ and that stupid meme.

>I don't know why anybody calls it white

Anon I don't know how to break it to you. You are color blind.
