Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth makes a mess of its important Aerith scene. For almost its entire runtime, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a masterclass. It sports the series’ best-ever combat, wonderfully-crafted open-worlds, and beautifully written characters. But despite all that good, the best Final Fantasy in over two decades stumbles at the exact moment it desperately needs to remain strong.

The reason why the scene fails in Rebirth is because in the og it was the main focus of what was happening. Aerith died nothing else mattered at that moment. With Rebirth because its supposed to be the finale of the game they had to turn into a big bombastic multiphased final boss. There is so much crazy stuff happening that its difficult to focus on her death. They basically turned one of the most saddest moments in the story into an action sequence.

It's like they couldn't decide whether to fully commit to killing Aerith or change her fate, so they resorted to a confusing middle ground that satisfies neither decision.

They literally did Jessie’s death in Remake better.

The original is proof that in some aspects "less is more"

This is bad but honestly the most unbelievable scene in this game is when the party gets knocked out by the generic thugs in corel prison.

Sephiroth: "Why won't you die?" Aerith: "Nano-timelines, son."

They could have just made a straight remake and nobody would have been upset.

They could have re-made the exact same death and aftermath scenes as in the OG and it would have still been even more heart wrenching than in 1997 after having spent so much time with this wonderfully written and acted character.

Didn't think I'd fully agree with IGN about FF7 but here we are.

My initial thought at the end was cloud is seeing 2 realities at the same time and is struggling to realise it, one where she died one where she lived, unsure as to why hes seeing the crack in the sky when the rest arnt, maybe hes going to have a near death experience sorta like at midel to reset him

Aerith’s death from a tragedy fans weeped over since 1997, to a confusing twist like Kingdom Hearts lore…

They really did handle Aerith's death horribly. The whispers, Zack being alive, and this whole multiverse stuff was all just so unnecessary.

The problem is the 2 hour fight😂😂

They even cut out the lake scene. Everything is so wrong.

you know it's bad when, after half an hour, you still feel... nothing.

Aerith's spirit intersecting to help Cloud would have been better served for the final boss fight of the 3rd and final game against Sephiroth, here it just muddles her death

They were never going to recapture the genuine shock that 1997 players experienced. What they failed was to do the scene justice. They killed her anyway, but in a distracting mess of empty fake-outs.
