I can save her

They won't kill anyone. Sephiroth will summon Meteor, the lack of Aerith's sacrifice will prevent Holy from being summoned, but it will be discovered that Aerith's mother was Lucretia, and Sephiroth is also a Cetra. Zack will catch up to the group during the final confrontation, and the Jenova cells in Sephiroth's body will latch onto Zack's memories of Sephiroth, turning him back into the cool guy he was before Nibelheim, and Sephiroth will sacrifice himself to summon Holy and get the planet to push Meteor back using the Lifestream, so that Zack and Aerith can live happily ever after.

he was joking anon

Why would killing Tifa be “smart?” She has zero power to interfere with his plans.

Aerith literally only dates Cloud for the parts of Zack he emulates and doesn't get to know the real him at all, the relationship (Romantically) is superficial

>No
????? Ok anon i guess if you say so, can't argue with that

their date is going to be so angsty, she knows she will die

The thing is also that Aerith breaks Cloud's barriers. Him and Tifa are always tense around each other and both dont really know how interact. Aerith is more proactive since their first encounter, probably why saving her is the first decision Cloud takes that isnt based on his merc persona.

>Aerith breaks Cloud's barriers
We don't know this for sure. The only Cloud she really got to interact with was "puppet" Cloud. Also their relationship wasn't strong enough to stop Cloud from beating the shit out of her after he gave Sephnova the Black Materia.

Emo Cloud was always the real Cloud. He was emo before he met Aerith and he is still emo after she dies. I see no difference

The only thing that breaks him is the fact that he never became a 1st class SOLDIER and that all achievement in his whole life was a lie. I was hoping the remake would make Cloud more proud of that title to make the scene actually feel the impact, from what I saw in the first game he doesn't really give a shit that much about being SOLDIER so I'm not sure if the plot twist still works the same as the original

Because most of the time people who say that have an "allegiance".

Any scene with Aerith cant be real, you need to understand.

>Cloud is being coerced into certain actions
>But any kind of positive interaction with Aeris is his true self without question despite his normal demeanor being withdrawn and solitary
Ironic considering there were accusations of mental gymnastics going around

It is a new modus operandi
You create a whole sentence that has nothing to do with what was previously said then you answer it yourself.

That's why nojima gets fricking threatened when they put romance scenes in the trailer, these people blind themselves, never try to understand the story, then get mad when it doesnt follow their headcanon.

That trailer created so much shitshow it is insane.
Cloud went from womanizer, to an butthole
Then aerith went from "confused", but she isnt as naive and knows what she's doing based on what she says in the first game. So people are confused if they say she's manipulative or just confused about her feelings. But they cant also admit she has feelings towards Cloud, or Cloud towards her. They are walking on eggs.

>Emo Cloud was always the real Cloud. He was emo before he met Aerith and he is still emo after she dies. I see no difference
Which is why you can't trust any of the positive interactions between them.
>I'm not sure if the plot twist still works the same as the original
They've already bailed on that being a huge revelation thanks to Hojo realizing who Cloud is.

I'm not the guy who pointed out Emo Cloud being his true self

What I think doesn't matter, it's what anyone can prove that does

I'd argue he may have been worse when he was begging Hojo for a number and during that time he apologized to Tifa for not being who he was supposed to be.

In that fricking trailer we see him seeing Sephiroth inside of a random hospital idk
I bet he will cause a shitshow because he will point his weapon to civilians.

She only likes Cloud because he reminds her of her old boyfriend. Tifa has liked him from the very start and was the one to restore the real Cloud.

og established aerith as the lover by default in the game
cc morons who never even played the og and only played worse fan fic trash afterwards are coping to this day

cloud would not have grieved as hard if it had been ANYONE else that died, even tifa. youre out of your mind if you think otherwise

Are you going to ignore that his village and mother also just got burned down?

>aerith on date to cloud: "I want to...... meet you"
> low affection highwind scene: cloud says if he keeps on trying one day the planet will give him an answer
>last scene of the game
>cloud seeing a vision of aerith
>"an answer from the planet, the promised land, I think I can meet her there"
pretty beautiful if you played the game right

>”you dont understand clerithgay, cloud is zack when he is with aerith and his real self is only shown around tifa!”
>cloud gives flower to tifa in manner similar to zack, and doesnt even initiate to give away the flower until tifa mentions it
>”see, cloud loves tifa”
Tifa fans are still trying to cope after the lastest aerith trailer, I see

duality of man

Zack probably liked to crossdress too

Tifa is a real one no doubt, I just prefer Aerith personality and looks

>Cloud gets sick with space AIDS and becomes a delirious shut-in
it's the plot device required for Advent Children to happen
when he gets cured at the end of it he goes back to enjoying his life with his family

#t=393

>Barret lives with them too
He was gone during AC and the most of the novellas before that. And why would Barret hanging out with his friends exclude Cloud and Tifa being together?
>cloud and tifa are still only called childhood friends in DoC
This is so the Clerithgays don't kill themselves/start firebombing S-E headquarters. It's obvious what's going on but they won't ever outright state it because of that.

If we go by Clerith logic them having their faces this close means something is happening, unless you agree that's moronic because the context is just them bumping into each other like in

I'm not in charge of displays of intimacy in the FF7 IP, go tell Nojima to change it however you want it.

>inb4 the choices you make in the 3rd game will determine whether cloud ends up with tifa or aerith
this is the only way to make both parties happy although they wont do it. not to mention it'd be fricked if you romance aerith and cuck zack if the timelines really do merge.

>"the girl engraved in clouds heart forever"
because of his guilt over her death
if she is supposed to be his lover then why is she in the lifestream hanging out with Zack while Cloud goes on picnics with Tifa and their kids instead of meeting her in the Promised Land?

prove it

That's like saying he's over Sephiroth after settling things at the end of FF7. The connection will always be there.
If the argument is he loves Aeris then the only way you're going to convince me is to show me where he declares his feelings the way he does towards Tifa in his subconscious and in

Either make your argument for Cloud loving Aerith more than Tifa or continue being a hypocrite.

why

I kind of hope so because on some level I worry it's Genesis

If Genesis ever appears he would be a guide, he kinda redeems himself at the end of crisis core. I dont think they would ever bring him back to be a main villain.
But i would like to at least fight him in a battle simulator or something like that in this trilogy.

spent 4 hours in the downed Shinra airship grinding sources. turns out I 255 for everything

I mean, if they are truly developing Redemption alongside Rebirt that means the third part wont have as much content as 1 or 2, wich would match with the third disc.
Also, who the hell is Gackt? I see that name popping off from time to time, but Im not that much into DoC deep lore, I only know Weiss and a bit of Deep Ground.

It has a great PC port. Do download it to your phone as well though because the PC version doesn't let you watch ads for in game currency and phone does.

it cheered me up

10 is already perfect. Why the frick would they remake it?

>remake
I thought it gets a sequel based on that shitty novel.

>7 Rebirth delay to 2024
Rebirth was not delayed, lol

I dont think so, after seeing how SE's marketing is being for Rebirth, it looks well planned. The fact they have even screenings of AC going on in Japan 2 weeks before Rebirth show that.
The release date was always "Winter". That it can change a lot if we refer to japan.

The thing is how Jenova is the inverse of what something like the Lifestream is. Because Jenova itself cant create life, just corrupt and copy it until it degrades everything. Even if in a extreme scenario the lifestream could go to other planets through omega or whatever, the whole way it works and acts is different than a parasite like Jenova. We dont have a single scenario of jenova being capable of creating life, just corrupting it.
Even the remnants were born from parts or Sephiroth, they arent new beings.

>Is there a scenario of Gaia and/or The Lifestream actually creating life?
That's actually what WEAPON is

>Gast
>Ifalna, can you comment on the thing called 'Weapon'?

>Ifalna
>Yes, Professor.
>The one the Professor mistook for a Cetra... was named Jenova. That is the 'crisis from the sky'.
>The Planet knew it had to destroy the 'crisis from the sky'...
>You see, as long as Jenova exists, the Planet will never be able to fully heal itself.

>Gast
>Back then, Weapon was a weapon the Planet produced of it's own will?

>Ifalna
>Yes, but... There is no record of Weapon ever being used.
>A small number of the surviving Cetra defeated Jenova, and confined it.
>The Planet produced Weapon... But it was no longer necessary to use it.

>Gast
>So, Weapon no longer exists on this Planet?

>Ifalna
>Weapon cannot vanish. ...it remains asleep somewhere on the Planet.
>Even though Jenova is confined, it could come back to life at some time...
>The Planet has not fully healed itself yet. It is still, watching Jenova.
