@Davidngo first off i never pushed it as a remaster if they do an alternative timeline thing where Aerith might live, thus making it a sequel and a remake that will be awesome all i said was as Square hasn't confirmed or denyed it we can't say that is actually what has happened at least until part 2 is out
Second i said that scene can't be used as proof because it's optional and dependent on your in game choices not because of the content involved, i have gotten all 3 so how can we say one is the true scene?
Third the ultimania does indeed say that Aerith favours cloud in the relationship chart same with tifa but it purposely leaves question marks on them
Forth how is it hypocritical if i bring up that most of what everyone including me has said about the remakeis based on an incomplete picture so they are allowed a view and i am not?
Fith Cloud did inherit elements of Zack due to the Jenova cells but they were mixed in with who and what he was, that's what that whole segment in the original game where he was in the life stream was about, him finding who he really was
Now does Cloud love Aerith, yes i never said he didn't just that because of everything that happened he wasn't sure if they were all his feelings if that makes sense
And again given that Aerith dies anyway it was a mute point, would Cloud have ended upwith her had she lived probably but she didn't
As for the interview saying they wasn't changing anything big i'm pretty sure i read that on this site actually but you are correct i could be misremembering or misinterpreting but i still think she will die, it's too big, too impactful, too iconic of a moment to change
TL;DR as you put it as it stands now we have only had one part of this game so i think it's folly to assume we know where it's going to go especially with Nomura in charge if as @Riftwalker and @Daenerys put it is time travel shenanigans and everything changes great but all i'm trying to say is we just don't know yet
@Ear_wiG @Daenerys @Riftwalker fitst off chigargo guy, what the hell does that even mean
Second it looks like sone people never read any of the extra material like on the way to a smile or the ultimanias otherwise you would know everything you just said is total bollocks
Also IF you actually read what i said you would ser i said he cared for her it's just he didn't know which feelings were his and which were Zacks
Also yes i know it's a bloody remake and anything can change all i said was in a interview they said they was going to stick to the original story and no one at Square is confirming or denying the alternative timeline yet so as it stands it's a fan theory
Also Cloud and Tifa were living together in OTWTAS and at the end of Advent Children, they were a couple this has already been confirm ffs, would he have ended up with Aerith had she lived maybe BUT SHE DIDN'T SO HE DIDN'T that's what i bloody said, Aerith dies and he ends up with Tifa
I wasn't sailing a bloody ship THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED
And yes Advent Children was about Cloud learning to deal with his failures i never said it wasn't i even said his depression was caused because he once again couldn't save someone, this time the boy
It looks like the only people trying to push their ship here is you, sorry if you just seeing the words Cloud and Tifa in the same post is enough to send you into a rage
Long story short, read what people actually post and have a bit more respect if someone's views MAY be different to yours, i know people like you on the Internet have no filter and believe their opinions are the only valid ones but guess what THEY AINT
EDIT: I forgot that "extra scene" your going on about, there are 3 different ones of those, one involving Tifa and showing that he cares for her instead, all depends on what actions you take in game andcan change respectively so that's not proof either
@Ear_wiG her death is too integral to the development of the story and characters so i doubt they will change it and i'm pretty sure they already said in a recent interview they won't be changing the core story beats
A lot of people are putting too much stock in this new timeline idea anyway but that's the youtube culture at work i suppose
@ShogunRok i agree, a lot of people tend to forget that Cloud holds Zacks memories and feelings thanks to the Jenova Cells and i know people like to bring up Advent Children but Clouds depression in that film was for not being able to save someone again in this case Denzel the orphan child he a Tifa took in and that reminded him of his failure with Aerith (people really need to read On the Way to a Smile)
yes Cloud felt things for Aerith but they were also mixed with Zacks so he could never really know which were his and which were Zacks
plus once Cloud regained his true self and memories his whole personality changed including how he felt about people another thing people tend to forget
but it's all a mute point anyway, Aerith died and Cloud ended up with Tifa regardless
@Rob_230 i imagine we will get news about part 2 next year once the game has released on whatever other systems it's releasing on, they probably can't talk about it until then
@KidBoruto yeah i checked and they have up to collection 5 (episode 120) up for pre-order, that's further than they originally got with the single releases before they lost the license
it's complicated but MangaUK had the license but lost it when they went independent from Starz media who funimation had a licence deal with so funimation then partnered with Anime LTD to carry on releasing Fairy Tail in the UK but then after some releases Anime LTD decides to drop it then funimation buys MangaUK in order to have their own UK distribution arm but has to wait for Anime LTD's license to run out for the episodes they released
@SirAngry i still say a map like Syndicates is about the right size for a AC game
still in my opinion the best game in the series, good size map, interesting and likable characters, selectable characters that work within the lore of the franchise, an interesting time period and location, parkour and social stealth and the combat sits almost between the classic and the new
the only downside was the level system, it was very grindy BUT you wasn't locked out of game progression just because your level was lower than recommended , if you had the skill you could still beat missions at a higher level than you, unlike Origins and Odyssey where a level difference of 1 was enough to make in unbeatable
good maybe others will start to use it and we can finally read a post that isn't filled with bile and hatred
as for people retweeting it with spoilers well the only peopel who will see that are people who follow them so that's no issue, all the ***** can stay together wallowing in their self pity and hatred and we can avoid all their crap
@Rob_230 to be fair for me it's all water off a ducks back, i can still enjoy something even if it's spoiled but i hate the people who think it's funny to do it especially those who do it on things that have nothing to do with the product in question
@Redman35 i think XBOX said they was doing a load of first party game reveals in July
Personally there are only a few 1st party XB franchises i'm interested in so i'm hoping that some of their new studios show off some upcoming games that are actually exclusive because as it stands with a XB1 and a P.C i really don't need a Series X to plsy any upcoming XBOX games
@Redman35 not really it just seems Sony are more interested in showing the games we will be playing while MS are more interested in showing the actual system
but given that as gamers we want to see games more than what a system looks like i think this PS5 tech demo has got me more interested than everything MS has showed so far, i expect MS to follow up in the coning weeks
@Grumblevolcano well they was talking about scaling options and how it's being built so that it can run on anything from mobile phones to the highest end P.C's, even the current gen systems so i'm sure that it will run fine on Series X but you're right the fact that MS has 2 different systems might complicate the issue
@jdv95 i would hope BUT everytime they was asked about it running on Series X the dodged the question
now that could be because they might have a advertising partnership with Sony or it could mean that the Series X can't do everything with this engine the PS5 can
perhaps in the coming months we will see it running on Series X but the fact that they kept dodging the question is a little concerning
