Thus far nobody seems to have credible information about the ending. A couple posters in the reddit leaks thread claim to have copies and have posted details about Gold Saucer dates

ImpAtom posted:For what it is worth that isn't true in any meaningful sense. Like you see in the trailers there's a comatose Aerith/Cloud thing going on but it doesn't go inthatdirection. I don't mind debunking stuff like that because I feel like there's nothing spoilery about saying Actually Roche Is Secretly Cid is wrong. Is it safe to say that they don't do any dumb twists like killing off Tifa instead, or having Aerith survive at the last second? edit: Here's some of the ending, according to a guy on reddit: ENDING SPOILERS As Cloud walks toward Aerith with the whispers of both sides attempting to prevent him, he's overtaken by the will of the Sephiroth and Jenova. He raises his blade above her head, and you do your best to control him, to stop him from slaying her, himself. All the while Sephiroth appears overhead, blade shining. As Cloud struggles against himself, Sephiroth dives down, and at the last second, Cloud releases and clashes his Buster Sword against Masamune, pushing Sephiroth away. But alas, the blade of Masamune was too long, and Cloud's too slow. Sephiroth's bloodied sword is shown, and he flicks her blood off towards Cloud. goethe.cx fucked around with this message at 06:08 on Feb 24, 2024 |

I thought the biggest gutpunch scene was when Cloud is holding Aerith after Sephiroth stabbed her, and then she opens her eyes and tells him it's ok. For a moment I wondered "did she actually survive that?" Then you see it from Tifa's perspective and Cloud is holding Aerith's lifeless body and is putting her hand on his cheek himself, and you realize he's lost his entire drat mind.

Spermando posted:I think the entire boss rush and the ending sapped away any emotion that scene could have. The ending FMV left me feeling like the season 2 finale of Twin Peaks. well that means that when part 3 comes out in 25 years it will be the best poo poo you've ever seen

I wasn't quite sure what to make of Aerith's statement to Cloud that "I really like you...but then, liking is different from *liking*." Huh?

# ¿ Mar 13, 2024 23:25 |
That was kind of my initial read too--like she was saying that maybe she *could* love Cloud, but there was too much in the way. And yeah, between that, the gold saucer date, and Cloud and Tifa's moment after the Gongaga reactor, Square's definitely gearing up for Cloud + Tifa in part 3

Nucular Carmul posted:I have to admit I was team Cloud/Aerith before Rebirth but now I understand the truth. Her song during the Loveless performance was a pretty close mirror to Yuna's song in X-2. Basically singing in front of a huge crowd of people, but the one person both girls are actually singing TO are not there to hear it. I had to go take a fuckin walk after that and sort my thoughts. Rebirth has one clear agenda: breaking the clerith ship for good lol I feel like it's ambiguous whether it's about Cloud or Zack. Certainly the line about meeting again "at our place" indicates Cloud--she refers to the church as "our place" when you wake up in the other world right before the end

Onmi posted:They mentioned one of the key points they wanted to hit with Rebirth was showing Tifa and Aerith's friendship, I think they knocked it out of the park. Yeah, I'm playing the OG again and they don't interact much. When they do, it's often some love triangle bullshit. This game though...man, I felt so bad for Tifa at the end

[Tifa, by Cloud's bedside]: "I hope the others are ok. I wonder what's taking them so long?" Cid & co.: [doing 10 sidequests where you track down missing livestock]

Rhonne posted:Dang, we're going to be spending like 100 hours running around with the group going on crazy adventures and dealing with their deep emotional issues and Cloud and Tifa are going to miss all of it. They're going to have so many in-jokes that the other two won't get. Cid and Barret start referring to each other as "Tango" and "Sundance" and everyone laughs except for Cloud and Tifa. Meanwhile the only in-joke they have is how Cloud goes "buhhh" before noon and "guhhh" after noon

it's less than she's angry at him and more that he's visibly insane and there's nothing she can do about it (until part 3)

Crystal Lake Witch posted:I'm interested to see how they handle Cloud getting his poo poo together in the next part, Tifa helping him bring his mind together in the lifestream version of Kalm is one of my favourite parts of the original. someone pointed out that during that part, you can see a pattern in the sky in cloud's mind that looks suspiciously like the "rift" in the doomed worlds in rebirth. it could be nothing, but we also know that the devs for this game paid attention to a lot of details in the OG...

it's very simple. Jenova is God, Sephiroth is Jesus, and the black whispers are the Holy Ghost

Raxivace posted:Replaying the ending of Remake again, I forgot that two of the Whisper visions of the future that Cloud sees are: the general consensus (that I agree with for now) seems to be that part 3 will feature cloud being forced to confront that aerith is actually for-real dead, and we'll see the water burial scene once he's realized what really happened
