Why does everyone think Aerith was his love interest?
>>
losers love the submissive, quiet and childlike option.
>>
aeris showed more interest in cloud than tifa
>>
>>747593028
>>
>>747592876
I think because had she survived, I think she had more confidence than Tifa, and would have won Cloud over in the end. But she didn't, and that's part of life, and Cloud and Tifa do find each other through this grief and circumstance. And I think that's a greater story than just one or the other simply winning him.
>>
>>747592876
Her death was the "I am your father" of vidya. People knew about it by osmosis and just assumed she was the love interest.

Maybe because despite the developers wanting to give the player a choice of which girl Cloud dates through many choices, the result is still always extremely biased towards Aeris?

Maybe because Cloud never stopped thinking about Aeris the whole game right up to the ending?

Maybe because Cloud (by choice of the player mind you) only had sex with Tifa to comfort her bar floozy nature one last time as she expressed existential crisis about the world possibly ending, and because Tifa was a bitch to him in their childhood, being a typical popular girl with other boys and ignoring Cloud in favor of more popular boys, so Cloud wanted to hate fuck her just once?
>>
>>747595001
I agree that Aerith is the main girl, but Cloud gets over her after her death, at least in the original game. She’s never brought up again, and he spends the rest of the game entirely with Tifa.

Thanks for proving you never played the game or are actually retarded.

Aeris is discussed multiple times after her death by Cloud and his party, even all the way up to the end of the game when Cloud is talking to Tifa in the crater he's discussing Aeris.

Cloud "spends the rest of the game" with what ever party members the player chooses, dipshit.

>cloud realizes he always loved tifa while he was in the lifestream
He never claims to love Tifa, and you didn't play the game.
Cloud is however constantly obsessed with Aeris and fawns over her and memories of her from beginning to the very end.
Literally discussing Aeris with Tifa even at the very end of the game.

Ok? Barret and Red and even Yuffie mentioned Aeris in the game after she's dead. They love her too?
The whole point of Cloud and friends mentioning her is to remind the player of
>Oh yeah, and don't forget the plot about ancients versus jenova
it's not about love or anything. If it was about love, Cloud would of had sex with her at the highwind and not Tifa. Which, should I remind you, he did sex with Tifa at that scene. Why? Due to love.

She's definitely submissive and codependent. Much of the plot relies on her staying quiet and she herself wishes she could come out and say things instead of bottling them inside. Childlike is her liking cute things like flowers in her shop, (according to BC having cat with a cutesy name), not understanding what Cloud means, when he says he slept well next to her, believing fairytales of crossing the mountains to see her mother and wanting to be saved by a knight in shiny, white armor.

You falsely claimed that Cloud "realizes he always loved tifa in the lifestream" out of desperation.
>>747595726
It's not canon that Cloud has sex with Tifa under the highwind. It's a RPG choice given to the player if you personally want to go that route or not.
What is canon is the ending, after the world's destiny deciding battle, Cloud isn't thinking about marrying or being with Tifa.
Cloud literally says:
"An answer from the Planet...
the Promised Land...
I think I can meet her...there."
and you can visibly see the fake smile Tifa has to put on as she's rejected by Cloud and musters the energy to say "Yeah, let's go meet her."

It's fucking pathetic. Every retarded waifu war boils down to them cuckspamming each other or trying to outdo each other in a male feminist performance. Erm yikes Tifa is problematic because her tits are too big! Erm yikes Aerith is problematic because she's too nice and bubbly!

>>747592876
The OG was ambiguous- Tifa's culminating romance scene is optional but Aerith's isn't(Cloud's "I think I can meet her there line" in the end), but Aerith is still dead in the end.

Remake/Rebirth however seem to have gone hard CloudxAerith though, they've given them two love songs as main themes, the whole meta plot with the whispers and loveless parallels center on Aerith and it's looking increasingly likely that Aerith is actually going to live in Revelation. I'm sure they'll leave it ambiguous enough that you can choose to go the Tifa romance
route without feeling like too much of a cuck but I think if you play all three games in a row it's probably going to make the most sense to choose Aerith.

I'm a based 40 year old OG FF7 enjoyer who disregarded everything else in the series after seeing how retarded the Advent Children bastardized the characters and lore.

I see trannies and retarded women in game development are still continuing to bastardize these characters' personalities to the point Aeris depicted there behaving like a 2 year old instead of the wise Ancient character she actually was in the original.
>>
>>747601134
You right, but it's been especially crazy since Rebirth's release, because Square Enix was never able to announce any sort of sales numbers, and they spent months upon months sales shitposting other Final Fantasy fans as well as Metaphor fans, which they also lost GotY to. Thing have not been coming up Milhouse for the average VIIR enjoyer. And they've had thought police every VIIR thread to make sure no doomer is saying anything bad about VIIR, to the point that if anyone said the Whispers were coming back in Rebirth, they were a doomer secondary who didn't play the game, but then it turns out the Whispers did come back. It's sort of at a boiling point with how much defense the VIIR fans are having to run for the game, and then how much the game ends up being the exact thing they are defending it from becoming.
>>
>>747592876
they skipped over all of cloud and tifa's history just because the one disc stand aerith got close to cloud.
Aerith is admittedly the default date choice for the golden saucer but she and cloud basically have no history beyond their very loose connection to Zack. Aerith is basically just there for the love triangle then die off to make you feel bad for what could've been.

>Aerith is basically just there for the love triangle then die off to make you feel bad for what could've been.
I mean, Tifa is basically just there to be a plot device who conveniently acts nothing at all like a human being and never says anything to Cloud for the entire game, and the entirety of the plot hinges upon Tifa saying nothing.

Aerith is acting like that in that scene because this version of her knows she's about to get killed and wants to have a nice date with Cloud before it happens. She's overcompensating trying to pretend everything is ok though which Cloud notices and calls her out on several times. She switches back to serious mode when they go back to the church

aerith's whole reason for liking cloud was cause he reminded her of zack..
Tifa and Cloud are both a bit less outgoing especially cloud but at least Cloud made a promise to help her if she needed it so its natural they'd need a push. Meanwhile Aerith is only relevant because of her heritage. Otherwise you could've just kept jessie alive instead for the same impact.

She hadn't achieved that in three years, even when abandoned by Cloud for long stretches of time during it. I don't think Tifa will ever be able to rid herself of her codependence, her trauma is too fundamental for that. She needs a partner, who'll let her be at peace by being her rock.
