This is definitely a higher tier game.  While there may be flaws, the main story has an interesting draw involving time travel, a mystery that seems extremely obvious currently, and the female characters have a little bit of autonomy (although not a huge amount as they all want the MC) and their own surface level personality.  While this may not be a mind blowing work of art, it is a definite good time.   This is one of the better games out there.
