      Bringing Zack back to life was already a "what a twist" ending, but that in itself is giving us hope that Aerith may be saved from death. It would be the most devious twist in what they're already doing to the story if they lured you in with the notion that if you can change fate, perhaps you can save her too. But making her the final boss as a Jenova rather than JENOVA-LIFE showing up unexpectedly...it would be even more impactful to have that same sad melody playing. Damn, I actually want this to happen now.

    The guide book I used for the game back then, towards the end of the book, actually spoiled that Aerith died indirectly. So I knew after a few hours in that it was going to happen. I still cried like a baby and was depressed for the next few hours. Magnificent work by Square.

When she got to this part she did not say much when Aerith died. She lost it when the screen transitioned to the fight with Jenova-Life. I asked if it made an impact when the song did not change. She said “yea.” Moments like this is when I enjoy bonding with someone over a game the same way you did when it came out. I was 8 when I first played this. I am 30 now.

I doubt we'll see the temple of the ancients or cosmo canyon but it's possible considering she leaves right after and Red XIII is in the shinra building rescue. Would make the remaster feel better since Bahamut is also in the temple.

    I knew Aeris was going to die, but I always thought she’d give her life just casting Holy to stop Sephiroth. I didn’t know that’s what she was doing here, nor did I ever expect Sephiroth to swoop in and down her.
    It was at that point, seeing Sephiroth’s sick smile as she guts Aeris, the innocent, sweet flower girl from the slums that I grew close to, that I loathed Sephiroth with all of my being. During the jenova fight, I didn’t give a shit about conserving mana, or strategies, or anything. I was recklessly throwing my strongest spells and attacks at Jenova in a blind rage induced by my emotions. Cloud even fainted twice during the battle.
    I played FF7 for the first time just today, and even as a 32 year old, I still was in shock and later fury at Sephiroth during the Jenova battle. I can safely say that no other game has made me feel this way.
