She's there for the second reactor mission but not the one that starts the game.

Also can't help but notice Tifa was nowhere to be found in that trailer, but she's in your party when you blow up the reactor, right?

They're still working out the physics for her boobs.

But for real that was quite cool. There's just that little voice in the back of my head going "I hope this isn't all prerendered jiggery poop like the first ff13 'gameplay video.'"

Yeah, you don't meet Tifa until you get to her bar, in fact you meet Aeris first.

Of course in reality she didn't appear because they couldn't get her physics right in time.

The dubbing / lip sync was hilariously bad. Get good VAs and make an effort to lip sync, or leave the audio in Japanese.

The "ha look at the weeaboo" posts are worse than if I'd actually been doing the weeaboo thing. Money and (not enough) effort were made to dub this trailer; there's nothing wrong with suggesting they shouldn't have bothered if they were going to do a lovely job.

who gives a gently caress, it's a single trailer that's showcasing the visuals and gameplay

And it made one-eighth the difference.

What the gently caress is he doing with his mouth, it looks like some upside-down frown and it's weirding me out to see stoic badass Cloud Strife doing something so weird.

Final Fantasy 2 has extra content in newer versions that let you play as the characters who die while they're in the afterlife and while only Tellah died in Final Fantasy 4, some versions of that game give you all the characters back for the final dungeon.

They will patch in a way to get Aeris back 2 months after release. You will need to replay the Sector 5 church scenario 7 times and then she'll rejoin you where you are at in the main quest line.

The Final Fantasy 4 example was pre-postgame. Also while not a remake, Final Fantasy 10-2 did undo Tidus' death.

tales of destiny director's cut rewrote leon's death, and also gave him his own story mode

the remake of fe3 let you recruit characters you were forced to kill in the original game, though admittedly they're random recruits in an fe game without supports

Eh, the sequel thing I don't count. Plenty of franchises did that trick, and it's never been an outcry. Dragon Age literally had the option to kill off a party member, and she ended up being a main character for 2 games straight afterwards.

The chance of them changing Aeris dying in any shape and form is literally zero. That said it's entirely possible she'll appear in some spirit form at some point.

You meet Aeris after blowing up the first reactor, she's selling flowers in the slums which you can buy and give to Tifa or Marlene when you get to the bar.

When you meet her again she asks if you remember her, and you can say that she was a slum drunk.

Squeenix still makes a bunch of other turnbased games and mainline FF has been trending towards action for ages.

If you promise to buy 4 million copies (the minimum they'll lose for making it turn-based), go right ahead.

No you see her the second time after you blow up Reactor 5 with Tifa in the crew. When you blow up the first reactor without Tifa you bump into Aeris in Sector 8 and have have a chance to buy a flower for Tifa or Marlene.

In the remakes of Dragon Warrior/Quest III you could bring your father back to life, which was the entire reason your character went out on an adventure in the first place. Although that's also post main game.

I'm glad they shifted away from turn based for it, the real time system will likely be much more fun.
