SyntheticPolygon posted:I expect the next game to continue the 7R strat of having changes and additions not really impact the general direction of the narrative, but a lot of the stuff coming up in Part 3 isn't super iconic (basically just Wutai, return to Midgar, Junon escape & Repairing Cloud's Brain) so I expect they could slot Zack and Aerith doing stuff into like any of the Weapon or Huge Materia things without causing much friction. Biggs too I guess, considering he also escaped death. you forgot the snowboarding section

Fedule posted:Feel like they'll just forget about Cid smoking. It was a Thing but the only things that really hinged on it were one comedic limit break animation which could be replaced with literally anything else and one brief gag during the ending when he gawps so hard at Holy that his cigarette falls out of his mouth. In a fight between that stuff and avoiding a rating change I feel like avoiding the rating change would win. Sadly. I don't think there's anything sad about the removal of smoking from mass media in general tbqh. There are other ways to get the same point across without also effectively giving free advertising to cancer sticks.

Aerith is going to return to the party on a full time basis before the end of the game so you can use her in post game stuff

I think that Aerith could already somewhat see between the timelines in the same way Sephiroth can and that the stuff that happened between the end of chapter 13 and the end of the game gave Cloud that ability as well. Or maybe refined it much better than before since some of the flashes he would get in remake and rebirth were from things that hadn't happened yet, not his fractured memories. It would make sense that Cloud's connection to Sephiroth could also carry over that ability, even in an imperfect form. I saw someone point out somewhere that like a month before rebirth came out they patched remake to specifically change the line Aerith says about the sky at the very end of the last cutscene before the credits roll and that it might indicate that she can see the same tear that Cloud sees at the end of Rebirth.

ImpAtom posted:Tifa tells Aerith, if you get either of their dates you see it. More specifically, she tells her that he remembers Zack but that he still got the "sequence" wrong. Or at least implies that part, I think. It's a little crazy to me that Tifa hasn't quite put together how Cloud was able to remember all this (or at least they haven't shown that she has) but I suppose she has much more pressing issues to worry about.

Turdfuzz posted:Anyway, I have a question. Haven't read the thread yet, sorry, but I wanted to be raw and apparently this is the thread where I don't have to add spoiler poo poo. This is a pretty common theory going around yeah. You will generally find theories boiling down into two camps: "Aerith is alive somewhere" and "No she's not"

Jetrauben posted:I still think it's because there's not multiple versions of these characters per se, there's one version who keeps getting made to go through these experiences again and again. Sort of an "oversoul" or essence of the character who gets incarnated repeatedly. It's the same way that Cloud subconsciously remembers the events of the original game at times. Zack experiences each timeline and fated death in sequence, and just refuses to give up, that's why he's on the verge of despair when he sees Biggs go down and the same fate of a bunch of Shinra soldiers about to gun him down as happened in the original ambush outside Midgar and then at the Shinra Building foyer. it's funny because people kept joking that this was FF7 Horizon on launch but it's actually Xenoblade 3, just nobody realizes it because it was a switch exclusive so nobody played it.

DeathChicken posted:It's funny since the timeline Zack doesn't choose in that scene seems to literally wipe itself out as he passes it. Then he turns up in it anyway It doesn't wipe itself out, the rainbow signifies a divergence in the timeline. It's creating a new one, not wiping it out. When you get to the scene where he's talking to Biggs in the reactor, the bag of chips has a different Stamp than the one in the universe where Zack goes to the Shinra building.
