Bring Aerith Back

it WOULD be nice if they made her revivable in a remake, or killed her off at the end, although that would majorly screw with the plot...

Personally, i'm hoping she'll get her chance to shine in Crises Core ^_^
 
Well, let us hope so. She's a nice addition to the team, and I kinda always wanted to know what happened if she didn't die. lol.
 
I dissent. Though the possibilities are generally good, I wouldn't play a game that revived her. It'll go against the great dramatic plot IMO.
 
Nope. Absolutely not. No more spin-offs. I refuse to play/watch another spin-off. However, it would be interesting to see how the whole tide of events played out were Aerith to be revived.
 
1- If you revive Aerith you kill her entire purpose. I, for one, do not wish for the meaning that her murder was supposed to have to be cheapened so utterly. It was a conscious and willful decision to have Aerith be murdered and for her to never come back, so that the cliche of the randomly sacrificed party member would be turned on its smegging ear.
Reviving Aerith is like having Boromir stand back up and say "Well, that hurt. Sorry about that bit with wanting the ring. Shall we go melt it, then?"

2- C/T v C/A has already been settled. Rather abruptly. See also: Murder.
 
What a terrible idea, FFVII has enough decent characters without reviving Aerith. If you want more of Miss Gainsborough then buy Crisis Core.

I would prefer if one of the other main characters died in a future game and maybe introduce Shelke as a full time member of the team.

But that wouldn't be reviving Aeris, which is what the previous poster said.

The previous poster said reviving Aeris would kill her entire purpose which is to basically die in 7. If the events were set before 7, Aeris wouldnt know this would happen. She hasnt died yet, so how can she be revived?

You may has well say that Tidus was revived in X2 then as he came back.

That's what I was saying. There is absolutely no way to have a good game if it involves reviving Aeris. I agree that a game taking place before she has been killed would be alright, but the previous poster was only discussing the ramifications of what would happen in the event of actual revival.

Whats your problem then? I said that if a game was made before Aeris died is a good idea. Not resurrecting her after the events of 7, which would throw everything off course obiviously.

You say that reviving her would be bad, yet you say a game before the events would be an alright idea.

Reviving Aeris would be dumb...plus with all the years she as been dead her body is probably decomposed already.

At the very best they could make a story before FFVII took place...

But bringing Aeris simply wont happen thats just a farytale her fans like to tell themselfes over and over again.:)

i think square-enix should release some official game or story or movie or something that involves aerith being revived (somehow). this would not only make the entire aerith fanbase ecstatic, including myself, but it might also end the cloti vs. clerith war once and for all. i think it would be highly interesting to see what would happen if she were revived. thoughts?

Not a good idea. Aerith's death was one of the important events that happened in FF7. If she's revived then killing her in the first place doesn't make any sense. It'll make me ecstatic but even so its not a good idea. ^_^

I think we're running in semantic circles. You said that making a game about Aeris before she died wouldn't harm the integrity of the original plot. My reply was to say that the original poster was strictly talking about reviving her and no other kind of plot.
 
why is everybody arguing? all i said was that i thought it would be INTERESTING to see what would happen if she was revived. i never said i wanted a new video game, or that i wanted to take away the importance of her original death. jeez, you guys are way too serious about this.
 
I think it should stay that way. What about Zack, let's bring him back too? remeber what Sephiroth said: "I will never be a memory" that means he will be back. So if SE brings Aerith back Cloud will have to look after her all the time because she cannot defend herself. By the way since she's in the lifestream, won't she turn into a bird or something? I mean there's this cicle going around giving life and everything in it. ya?

Not if you base the game before the events of 7.

But that's not a revival, just like Crisis Core does not revive Zack.

She can't be revived, though that's a bit of a red herring. Reviving Aerith post FF7 makes her death basically meaningless in terms of story impact.
A game set before FF7 would not be a revival, and would be alright, provided it was a good game in and of itself.

You may has well say that Tidus was revived in X2 then as he came back.

Actually, he was, but he has special circumstances of being Shinentai to begin with.

For God's sake, thats what Ive been saying! Im saying a game featuring Aeris before the events of 7 is kinda a good idea.
 
Maybe a game set in an alternate timeline where cloud became a turk or something and you play as cloud 'the turk' of which the final part is to collect aerith on which you see what you've been doing and join her. so that way Aerith doesn't have to die and it can end like you escort aerith to the temple of the ancients and the final fight can be sephiroth.
 
some of you guys don't seem to understand my simple thoughts. all i want is something set maybe a couple months after AC, where aerith is revived by some mysterious force, and her and cloud and the others reunite. no matter how stupid of an idea some of you guys think it is, i'd like to see it and thats just that.
