I'm excited for the third game, but I can't shake the disappointment I felt about how they handled Aerith's death in Rebirth. It felt rushed and didn't have the same emotional impact as the original. The scene felt rushed and lacked the depth and nuance that characterized Aerith's character arc.
In the original, Aerith's death was a pivotal moment that shaped the rest of the story. It was a heartbreaking loss that resonated with players on a deep emotional level. The remake's version, however, felt more like a plot device than a genuine tragedy.
I hope the third game can make up for this disappointment. Perhaps they can explore the aftermath of Aerith's death in more depth, allowing Cloud and the other characters to grieve and process their loss. A more contemplative and introspective approach could help to recapture the emotional power of the original story.
