It's amazing to see just how much it accelerates the more C/T evidence comes out ahead of the release. It'll be fucking hilarious seeing the cope once it's live.
SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke
- Thread starter The Twilight Mexican
- Start date
They said they wanted to make Tifa and Clouds relationship clear in an interview. It cant get any more clear than that.
though some people are trying XD
they are absolutely making the lifestream and highwind very romantic and intimate in part 3 so need to make it extra clear

Ultimately, I don’t actually care who Cloud “ends up” with. He could’ve ended up with Aerith in the OG and I’d be fine with it. My thing is that whatever the devs do, I want them to commit to it. Don’t try to beat around the bush to appease everybody, especially at the expense of character development.
These are the same kinds of people who think Cloud abandoned Tifa and his family in AC simply because he wants to be with Aerith. As if Aerith herself would even want Cloud or Tifa to suffer like that. Hell, she HELPS bring their family back together.
And this is what I mean. I’ve always felt SE was partly to blame for allowing their characters to be misinterpreted so terribly due to weak storytelling. It seems like they’ve been not only course-correcting in the remake, I’d even go as far as saying they may have overcorrected a bit lol. Because if what I’ve been reading is true, then DAMN.

Oh I agree. I definitely want them to commit. They kind of need to tbh. Ambiguity may have worked more because of the polygon nature of the old game but seeing these characters in modern graphics makes it harder I feel. Committing allows for better direction on some of these scenes… and future ones.
When you see the scene you will know why they cant

Rebirth finally settles it well for normal people I'm sure the essay writers will try to find some way to twist it

Honestly, I don’t even think the devs themselves cared this much about the romance back then. Hence Nomura’s statement about not knowing if Cloud & Tifa had been in a relationship from the end of FF7 leading up to AC. Like, the romance was always there but in the OG it felt a lot less fleshed out than what we’ve gotten since then.
It’s actually a throuple with Cloud, Tifa, and Madam M. If you know, you know.

Uhhh... They posted the full
Aerith date too and wow I really thought people were exaggerating about how non romantic it was but that was brutal? Like unexpectedly so. He just full on avoids sitting next to her and his body language is so closed off. Even the bit from the trailer they fall into one another that I will admit I thought looked romantic when watching it did not translate. She falls into him and he... Immediately pulls away and sits back down with his body turned away from her and really closed off body language. But in Tifas he is facing her and has open body language and just a totally different demeanor. I am honestly shocked AF right now. I seriously did not expect it to be so blatant and thought for sure the hardcore clotis were exaggerating. I am shooketh.. the handhold is very sweet but it also kind of seemed like less of a cuddle than what she was doing prior to that in hugging his arm!? Wtf
I think it's cause of how different the times are now compared to 1997 so In their reimagining they focus a lot more on the romance between tifa and cloud here, especially in this game just check what most the reviews of the game are talking about
It's meant to be awkward and wrong but it's very heartwarming when cloud gives her the comfort she needs. Also that trailer was the biggest bait imaginable when you what that trip actually was just WOW

that was just so.. the folded arms and looking away from her out of the window... Sitting away from her when she pats next to her and removing himself immediately after she falls into him.. holy hell that's like... Insane. She definitely comes across as into him but heck.. he is just cold as fkn ice man. But so warm with Tifa. I can't believe they made it that obvious... My god.
Yeah throughout the game you can see his body language with Aerith Vs Tifa especially at a part where Aerith is sitting In a place she should not be sitting but the part that ends the LTD Hoo Boy Hardcore Cleriths are not gonna a have a fun time I still think they could ha e resolved this in a better way but at least for the mainstream audience the LTD will be dead

Aerith baby, I know how you imagine this happiness in this place with someone you love and love you back. It hurts me so bad to see you try to imagine that with Cloud but your subconscious dream tell you otherwise.
Just kidding. I know this EC wallpaper isn't related to the main story. At least there's also a scene in Rebirth of Zack being protected by white whispers and yellow petal guiding him when Sephiroth throw him away to portal. He says, "I'll find the way. You'll see."
