If she dies, people will be angry, if she lives, people will be disappointed. It would be more credible if she died like in the original, but then somehow later would be revived. It's called Rebirth after all...
The only reason she had to die ordinally was due to her inability to use holy to its it full potential. if she has knowledge of that maybe she can harness its power without having to die; Maybe depending on choice you make will depend if she lives or dies
100% Aerith will survive. problem is, her dying is ESSENTIAL to stop meteor. it’s what allows her to aim the lifestream at it and destroy it. so when she survives, it’s gonna cause some super fckery like the end of REmake and the third game may be completely in terms of how things go down. my only real concern is how Zack and, even more importantly, coma-Cloud will factor in. cause if coma Cloud is more of a blank slate than OG Cloud, he is by far the most useful puppet Sephy could ever hope for.
Exactly and thats the point. People are ridiclious if they think that Sephrioth will kill Aerith. He knows that this will be his ultimate demise. But as you said Aerith HAS to die for her to manipulate the lifestream into destroying meteor. So the problem is who is going to kill her since Sephiroth clearly wont? It may fall into Cloud to actually kill her which will utterly destroy him and put him into a deep crisis. So its possible alternate timeline comatose Cloud and Zack might have to step in somehow. Very excited for Rebirth.
They only killed her off for "shock value" "subverting expectations", but we still need her to be present. They came up with the Deus ex machina nonsense regarding her controlling the life stream situation. The whole point of remake is to stop the same events from happening. Hence "The whispers".
@@AceOvrZero Right, but zack has to die for cloud to even take over his identity, so either her doesn't ever claim he was in soldier or that ship has to have already sailed
Haven't we learned anything? In the original ff7, Sephiroth was stuck in the life stream the whole game till cloud was into bringing the materia to release him. Every single Sephoroth we met throughout the whole game was clones. It was a shared partnership between jenova and Sephoroth. She wanted seph to be released and gather all clones to the creator and you know the rest. Why haven't they shown us CID?
Currently there are two Sephiroth’s in the main party’s world - Advent Children Sephiroth who is alive and OG Sephiroth who needs the materia. We don’t really know Advent Children Sephiroth’s full intentions so the outcome might be different
Its so fvcking confusing. Help me understand 1) how are those clones? who made them? Jenova or sephiroth? And how? 2) what is seph doing in the lifestream? did he die after burning nibleheim? so weird 3) is jenova still alive or already dead? the part where seph saw jenova and pulls her head out, is that her?
They already confirmed that someone WILL die in Rebirth and will STAY DEAD. They didn't mention who. So it's either they implied it's Aerith or plot twist it could be someone else.
We don't need seven reasons it's actually very simple. Final Fantasy 7 remake is actually a requel that takes place in a different timeline. Since they killed the creatures that ensure the timeline stays intact, anything can now happen
That last part about Aerith and the seven seconds is interesting although FF7 Remake already mentions in the Chapter 18 log that this is in reference to the end of the world by meteor. Although this could be a red herring by Square Enix.
People complaining about spoilers after 26 years LOL. If you didnt care enough to play through the classic game in 26 years you have no right to complain, IMO.

I’d hate it if Square Enix didn’t surprise us with new plot elements and characters’ fate just to give us exactly what we expected after so many years of waiting for this trilogy. We should get something new, shocking and fresh. Not the fact same thing they also showed non stop in the Remake through visions.

Yuffie was a missable character in OG, if what they showed even is the first time our team meets Yuffie, it’s seemingly done so to have her appear in a way that’s not based on RNG.

They won't. Just finished the demo, and it's quite obvious she dies. And she should, Aerith, is my favorite game character. I'm gaming, and to change her death would cheapen the narrative both in the original and remake.
How about we somehow put some sense in Sephiroth's head, turn him to our side at the FF7 ending and use him to truly destroy Jenova as the new final boss? That would be a crazy plot twist.

Important thing to note is that Aerith was losing her knowledge of the future each time the Whispers touched her. So she might only know a little now. Also, party wasn't captured in Zack's timeline. They are dead. Also it didn't take 7 seconds for Sephiroth to stab Cloud. The OG footage you showed was edited. lol

The wording used was "linked to", not "lead up to". All a link implies is a connection. Heck, the first part of the remake is already 'linked' to Advent Children in the form of the three chromatic Whispers, who symbolize Kadaj, Yazoo and Loz, as hinted by in-game and outright stated in the Ultimania.
In Rebirth it could be that there are 2 Sephiroth´s at the same time, OG and the one from the future. The future Sephy only intervenes at key moments to change his destiny, mean while the OG continues the original story.

Modern day gaming and film’s biggest issues are characters can no longer stay dead! Aeriths dead was a massive moment in my childhood, same as Biggs, wedge and Jessie, why care anymore about characters dying!
@@fearlesscheshirecat1411 Aerith's death doesn't make any sense. She was still able to cast Holy. Killing another character just for the shock factor would be lazy writing.
@@broncosfannum24 right? killing aerith did nothing to stop meteor. her death was just shocking. the entire story could still go nearly the exact same way just a little change in the script.
Maybe Cloud. Knowing the grim future that awaits Aerith, Tifa, Barrett and his friends, cloud will volunteer to sacrifice himself to use the holy materia. That way, we, the players can finally see the life stream once Cloud roams around the place and convince the spirits within the area, including Jessie, Cloud’s mother, Tifa’s father, Angeal and all those lost during the Nibelheim incident and the fall of Sector 7, he can convince them to stop meteor from destroying Gaea. That way Aerith and Zack can get married and Tifa could end up with Johnny.
The biggest marker in my eyes is the combat system. No way they make it so that you don't have a dedicated mage for the third part. The original game gave you a magic plus materia so you won't have a bad mage. Unless my subclass theory happens and somebody uses her rods without her.
This is my exact thought process. The combat is too advanced and technical for them to remove a very important character, mechanically speaking, that is integral to party makeup. Actually, every character is integral to varied party makeups since they all now have unique abilities whereas in the OG you could equip anyone with any materia to do anything and the only real unique factor were the limit breaks. There’s a reason why they are implementing party load outs and it’s because every character brings something to the table and every combination brings something different.
why cant cait or red perform the role of mage? not only that, FF7s materia system is purposely built so you can turn anyone into mage, albeit maybe not as strong as Aerith can be
@@viralshark It's not just about having a big magic stat and materia for a mage in Remake now. Aerith has moves that make magic use integral to the parties dynamics.

Really IGN? Can you at least try and be a LITTLE more subtle about your huge spoiler titles? There are loads of people on YT playing FF7 right now who don't know about the death who watch your videos for news and you don't even care that you might have just spoiled Rebirth for them. Nice one.
Agreed. Super annoying and I'm worried my girlfriend who is super invested in Remake (but hasn't beat the original yet) is going to see this and start asking questions.
My theory is you can't save Aerith but since Zack is alive thinking they both of them is the key to make the timeline back again by sacrificng themselves at the same time leaving Cloud and the gang behind.
Zack disappeared on her when she was 16, and died. Five years later the events of OG. To expect her to hang onto him that long is not only unrealistic, it’s bad writing. She got over him. Let it go.
Aerith and Zack deserve to be happy, but not together…. They weren’t even that close in the original game. Crisis Core was a complete retcon. I’d much rather see Cloud and Aerith.
Cloud also deserves a happy ending. Aerith's death clearly haunted him across Advent Children and Kingdom Hearts. Only a true happy ending would be appropriate to end the FF7 story.
@@fearlesscheshirecat1411 Aerith never knew the real Cloud. Tifa has always been Cloud's connection. Regardless of what you'd rather see, Cloud will always end up with Tifa, and Aerith will be with Zack. Tifa has been hanging onto Cloud for all those years. If Aerith can't do the same, then she's clearly not as loyal as Tifa is.
They kinda spoiled a story bit to new fans with the title name. Anyways this is ganna be interesting how they handel this section in this part of the remake if it will include this scene.
This game is 25 years old. The scene is recognized even by non Final Fantasy fans. It's really on them for not playing in time. Aren't the games in alternate universes anyways?
My bet is that Aerith will still be dead by the end of the compilation, but the twists will keep things fresh and still have the same thematic payoffs.
Don't forget, all of that still happened, we already saw all that and it's all canon in the way things happen, but things happening differently and unpredictably is arguably that much more exciting and could potentially create and even bigger scene that creates history all over again.

Eh they will bring back Zack too. And probably everyone else who died just to milk it more 😅 Even Seph. Probably make a game where he survives and becomes the protagonist and slowly changes his way. They need to do other final fantasy games too not just 7.

Although the original is 25 years old IGN shouldn’t put spoilers in the title for fans who have only played FF7R.
Agreed. Super annoying and I'm worried my girlfriend who is super invested in Remake (but hasn't beat the original yet) is going to see this and start asking questions.
@@chenigen As she should, then you can buy her the original and she can forget this hot mess even happened
Shut up, nerds. Grow up
Hope she doesn't avoid it. Otherwise everything that comes after it. Including Advent Children is no longer story cannon.
Aerith will kill Sephiroth
Cloud dies instead?
They spoiled it for me right in the thumbnail 😢
I’m not playing it until it’s on Switch 2, anyway.

FF7 is getting nomuraed, reviving all the characters in KH3 was awful. And it's plain fan service hindering the original plot.
Aerith literally has to die. It’s what kinda kicks everything off
should be marked as spoiler
she still dies
You bet your sweet apples she's dyin'!
My theory is you can't save Aerith but since Zack is alive thinking they both of them is the key to make the timeline back again by sacrificng themselves at the same time leaving Cloud and the gang behind.
But why 😅
no. the whole story will change if they keep her alive.
they have ALOT of ground to cover if pt 2 will end at the forgotten city
It didn’t.
Please 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
She's going to be alive for a while....
Aerith and Zack deserve a happy ending. I'm all for it.
Zack disappeared on her when she was 16, and died. Five years later the events of OG. To expect her to hang onto him that long is not only unrealistic, it’s bad writing. She got over him. Let it go.
Aerith and Zack deserve to be happy, but not together….
They weren’t even that close in the original game. Crisis Core was a complete retcon.
I’d much rather see Cloud and Aerith.
Cloud also deserves a happy ending. Aerith's death clearly haunted him across Advent Children and Kingdom Hearts. Only a true happy ending would be appropriate to end the FF7 story.
@@fearlesscheshirecat1411 Aerith never knew the real Cloud. Tifa has always been Cloud's connection. Regardless of what you'd rather see, Cloud will always end up with Tifa, and Aerith will be with Zack.
Tifa has been hanging onto Cloud for all those years. If Aerith can't do the same, then she's clearly not as loyal as Tifa is.
@@JustinStrife cause you ship it then it's what it must be? If you ship Tifa and Cloud, fine, but don't pretend it's what "it must be". Not really.
They kinda spoiled a story bit
to new fans with the title name. Anyways this is ganna be interesting how they handel this section in this part of the remake if it will include this scene.
This game is 25 years old. The scene is recognized even by non Final Fantasy fans. It's really on them for not playing in time. Aren't the games in alternate universes anyways?
@@Key-Knight87different timelines
@@Key-Knight87 hmm yea
Ugh IGN actively trying to undermine the OG with the constant save Aerith narrative.
Standing up for each other and fighting for each other
Please don’t give me hope.
They absolutely shouldn’t stray much further from OG. OG is memorable because of what it made the player feel. Undoing it will destroy it.
My bet is that Aerith will still be dead by the end of the compilation, but the twists will keep things fresh and still have the same thematic payoffs.
Don't forget, all of that still happened, we already saw all that and it's all canon in the way things happen, but things happening differently and unpredictably is arguably that much more exciting and could potentially create and even bigger scene that creates history all over again.
If it's the same thing, then we miss out on that potential.
@@renegade7565its only exciting if it pans out well. If it ends up feeling like a bad fanfic, then that isn’t fun or exciting.
Thanks for spoiling the story in the title..
Tifa dying instead could do the trick.
Not happening. Tifa is tied to Cloud.
Not IGN spoiling of ff7 😬😬😬
They’re a gaming news channel and the game came out 30 years ago 😂
Ok u got me at 7th point.
thanks for spoiling IGN
They gonna pull a mass effect 1 watch. Either save tifa or aerith. Can only be one.
GD spoiler for people IGN
Ok. So we get to the Forgotten Capital..at the end of disc 1. And all of disc 2 is playing as Zack instead of Cloud in the alt timeline, maybe.
Eh they will bring back Zack too. And probably everyone else who died just to milk it more 😅
Even Seph. Probably make a game where he survives and becomes the protagonist and slowly changes his way.
They need to do other final fantasy games too not just 7.
