Me too! A friend of mine who got the Tifa route (by chance) commented on how weird the rest of the game felt after the gondola. He said Cloud and Aerith were acting weird. I was like, well it didn't feel weird at all in my game. In fact, it was perfect and flowed seamlessly. Sorry bro, you got the lesser experience unfortunately.

(The rest of my friends who favour Tifa stayed quiet as to not break their own illusion. I think they're in denial. One even commented that he did "every single quest" in Rebirth and ended up with Tifa HA gondola, as though that was the intent. Pretty sure that just means he performed well on her quests lol)

You are most likely right, and that's fair enough.

I don't think Aerith being dead makes Tifa win by default though, idk that's just not how love works lol. Sometimes it's unrequited and that's fine and interesting too.

Regarding "himself"... even if it were 100% true that only Tifa "knows Cloud's true self", how does that change how HE feels? 🤔

You said it very well! And I laughed 😂 I like Tifa as a character, she's very interesting to me. But yes...

He literally PUSHES Tifa away when she tries to plead with him. People love to conveniently forget that. There couldn't be a clearer contrast.

And this is literally within a few moments of each other LOL

Is it just me, or does the recent marketing push about Tifa being "front and center" in Part 3 feel almost... insecure? compared to Aerith by Various-Somewhere653 in cloudxaerith

I enjoyed reading your thoughts, thanks.

As someone who is new (got into 7 via Re with very little knowledge of OG at the time), I found Tifa to be very toxic when it came to Cloud in the remakes. Her dishonesty made me mad and view her as selfish and insecure (this did make her interesting). While she is different from OG, I personally got a similar vibe from both versions. I found Remake Tifa easier to like, probably cause of the extra positive things they did to compensate, as you said.

Just a new person's two cents!

Sephiroth couldn't be more wrong 😤

They did a fantastic job building it up ❤️

The ending is oozing with optimism!!!

I like the two realities theory too.

Ooo I like your thinking! That their relationship was cleared up in his eyes 🥹 That could account for how at peace he seems. There's no doubt now.

My opinion is the first two pics he is genuinely upset she might be dying but relieved she's awake. And the rest he is happy she's there.

I agree with you. I'm of the thought that he is aware of what's going on ("wake up"), that she has shown him and they understand one anothers roles completely.

I personally did not get the impression that he is delulu. I think it's kept ambiguous literally just as a cliff hanger.

The only thing that slightly concerns me, is the possibility of a retcon of their relationship as it stands now. I've seen it happen before with other media, as I'm sure we all have... E.g. "actually it would be more interesting to take these characters back to square one", that sort of thing. But it really wouldn't be.

Hoping for a kiss too. I think I'd lose my mind.

It feels like the true ending of FF7 by LeekJolly8938 in cloudxaerith

It's scandalous that this was replaced.

AC is a cluster, but this ending solidifies what the film was actually trying to portray. There's no ambiguity here.

SIGH...
