Yeah, I'm curious about it too. Moreover, I would actually like to know what doing EVERYTHING results in but I guess the beachwear and the beach fight are the tiebreakers in any case. (much like who Cloud talks to first in the sewers in Remake)I'm actually curious about the mechanical breakdown of the sidequests and the value they add to the AV. I know I didn't do all the sidequests perfectly the first time around and didn't do the Maru quest until after the date, but I still got Tifa's date, and I was trying to max out everyone's affinity (Barret was my lowest, I think, at 85%)
I know the discussion answers are worth between 1 and 3 points, IIRC, because I am 2 points away from 100% on Tifa and I'm about as many points shy from maxing out her dialogue options. I know the Beach fight option is almost certainly 5 or less points worth of "affinity" because I haven't gone back for Aerith's version of that fight and I think that's how many points away from max she is.
This right here is why I say it’s much more plausible to assume the “canon” of the story is that all sidequests got done and all affinity was maxed out by the end.The fact that you (the player) needs to do other character's sidequest to unlock Tifa's, make earning that kiss even more rewarding.

Not sure why she switched but I do know she believes that Tifa treats Cloud really badly... and so she doesn't deserve him or something like that. Stuff like how she treats him as a kid, and the stuff in the CoT, and probably how she yells at him in AC. (I suppose it will never matter that her actions during their childhood being bad have been debunked by more accurate translations and ToTP.)Thank you for the correction. In my defense, they're both self X Cloud shippers and have similar PFPs. I hear Margot used to "be" a CT but switched sides over a disagreement. Does anyone know what that was about or what she was up to before switching sides? Was she just as annoying beforehand?
In the even of an absolute 100% across the board tie it's whoever is closer to Cloud in your party roster.
In a single playthrough, though, there are two make or break points. The Beach Battle and the Corel cart route.
Even then I THINK that only narrows it down to T or A, Y or B, and Red XIII
People arguing this scene in bad faith against Tifa only tells me that said person is a massive dumbass. If Tifa really didn't care about Cloud, or straight up didn't like him, she would just leave him do what he wanted to; rot away.Which I gotta say, if you're in a relationship and your partner acts the way Cloud did, then it is absolutely okay to call him out on it. Because otherwise, this essentially implies that Tifa should just lie down and accept Cloud's behavior. Not to mention, I think Aerith would be just as frustrated with him in the same scenario.
Yes, Tifa had to show some 'Tough Love' to Cloud for him to react. When he tells Tifa "I lost some weight, maybe all that Dilly Dally" confirms Tifa was right. Even Aerith repeating Dilli Dalli Shilly Shally confirms Tifa's.People arguing this scene in bad faith against Tifa only tells me that said person is a massive dumbass.

Just take someone who's your friend, for example. Anybody who genuinely cares about their friend wouldn't just let them end things.
For what I have read about her so far, She self-inserts in a relationship with Cloud, maybe back when she was "Cloti" she was the same way, extremist and toxic on both sides.Not sure why she switched but I do know she believes that Tifa treats Cloud really badly... and so she doesn't deserve him or something like that.

In any case, I just think people treat Tifa in CoT and ACC with bad faith. I also think it's quite interesting and strange that they believe relationships should always be sunshine and rainbows and that there is no struggle once two people become a couple. Do they believe Cloud and Aerith would be in perpetual honeymoon-phase? I doubt it, especially since Nomura (or was it Nojima) indicated she would basically have to do all the work in the relationship and coax Cloud to reciprocate. (In fact, that's basically how it works in Remake Trilogy so far)For what I have read about her so far, She self-inserts in a relationship with Cloud, maybe back when she was "Cloti" she was the same way, extremist and toxic on both sides.
Well, she was talking about Aerith.I mean, his mom nailed it, Cloud needs someone mature who will tell him when he’s being a dumbass er a “silly goose”.
So, I'm pretty sure that's not entirely accurate. What Claudia says is "like an older sister" (chotto onee-san, I think). I think it's the same in the jp version of the original? can't really confirm that though.You know, I still sorta subscribe to it being a reference to Aerith since she says "older woman" in the OG. But I think a lot of CAs treat it as fact so no matter what, Claudia is referring to someone like Aerith in their eyes.
Claudia's reaction to Tifa: Oh my...Oh my... lol! yeah def hinting Aerith.So, I'm pretty sure that's not entirely accurate. What Claudia says is "like an older sister" (chotto onee-san, I think). I think it's the same in the jp version of the original? can't really confirm that though.
I don't want to be that guy, but from what I've heard, obviously cannot confirm this because I'm not Japanese, older sisters are seen as responsible, that's what Claudia is referring to, someone who's responsible and can take care of him, the english just hyperfocuses on the "older" part, but the person's age isn't really what's relevant here.
I can't subscribe to Aerith being the one hinted at here by Claudia, especially not after, just a few days before this scene chronologically, Tifa told Claudia ambitions Cloud has that he didn't tell his mother. From her reaction, I think it's obvious she came to a conclusion in her head about Cloud and his motivations.
I don’t think Aerith is gonna be wholly relevant to it anyway. Most of it is about Tifa and Cloud’s memories so she would literally be third-wheeling there.Claudia's reaction to Tifa: Oh my...Oh my... lol! yeah def hinting Aerith.
Anywho looks like a fan theorist shot himself in the foot with an Aerith's death insertion on the LSS theory.
Yeah, it seems to be a popular one to throw in there. I get the logic but I’m not subscribing to it.Claudia's reaction to Tifa: Oh my...Oh my... lol! yeah def hinting Aerith.

Honestly, they don't expect it. They know it's a Tifa scene, but they want it for Aerith because they feel entitled to it. Same with wanting to change the highwind scene (IIRC, there was some sort of peitioning the devs about that. Anyone got a screencap?)As I said yesterday, IIRC, there are three Lifestream hints between Remake and Rebirth and they’re all CT scenes. So I really wonder how they expect the Lifestream scene in p3 to be anything but a CT scene![]()
You know, even though I see Aerith and Cloud's dynamic as similar to an anime older sister and long-suffering little brother, I also see Aerith as child-like. Not childish but it's just like the way she carries herself, the way she talks, etc that makes me think that she's supposed to typify innocence.You know, I still sorta subscribe to it being a reference to Aerith since she says "older woman" in the OG.

As for the Claudie flashback itself, I think it's really telling that when Cloud wakes up, he immediately wants to get back to Tifa, lol.

I think it’s lost on people who specific it is to just Cloud and Tifa. But I think the devs are aware of this and I doubt they’ll throw more characters in. They might change it up a bit or add more gameplay to it, but I’m 90% sure it’s just gonna be Cloud and Tifa.There are a lot of theorybros who believe that we’ll see Aerith’s death in the LS though, and that’s so missing the point completely about the LS, so I’m always in my corner, wondering why they insist on making a romance and truth scene into something else. The Lifestream scene is hugely hinted at twice in Rebirth, in Gongaga and Tifa’s trial, and they’re all writing those scenes off because they can’t imagine Aerith’s death scene couldn’t be part of the climax.
Btw for Tifa’s trial, you guys should check this, it’s brilliant:
