I felt the same way. I thought of every time Sephiroth had died and what the lifestream did to him. His first time it destroyed his body but he was able to rebuild it in the northern crater. The second time it had started to erode his memories, fragmenting him but he clung onto Clouds memories of him to anchor him, he forgot what he looked like but counted on Cloud to bring him back. Each time he learned more and more from the lifestream itself. Hypothetically if Cloud started to forget him after the events of AC, he may return to a point in time where his memory had the most influence. Back at the beginning of the events of FFVII. Before Aerith had died yet after Jenova had taken a hold on Cloud.

@Ahleckss Sephiroth's departure in Advent Children doesn't feel like a defeat, but rather a tactical retreat. "I will never be a memory." Followed by him LEAVING Kadaj's body. JenovaRoth and FutureRoth are both present in Remake doing VERY different things, not working together.

This is how I've always seen it, I think that the planet remembers the original FFVII, along with characters like Sephiroth and Aerith. However the new story separates itself very early from AC, we end remake by fighting off the remnants, Kadaj, Loz, Yazoo, and later the fate that binds them to the original timeline of events. We see certain easter eggs eluding to it, like Vincent's graffiti, but we are told early on that the events of AC are where the party is going if they fail to branch off the path. I think the re-trilogy is focusing on not just fate, but healing, while bringing in the compilation into a new canon, that respects the old canon still exists in a sense, as a karmic memory. I really think this game is going to challenge us in how we view healing. Cloud isn't just the hero for this story, he's the battlefield. Sephiroth, not afraid of dying, but afraid of being forgotten is using this traumatic grief to anchor himself in this world. Aerith's death acts as both the catalyst for Clouds grief and pain, but also the answer in healing. The original FFVII created a wound, a wound in the planet, a wound in Cloud, and Sephiroth learned how to exploit that. I think it's asking something so human, Can people heal? And if they can, maybe the greatest tragedy in gaming history can finally become a story about overcoming pain, Cloud can finally heal the wound that cause his separation from Aerith.

@ffSteeD27 To add onto that the lifestream has always been cyclical. So I really see OG/AC as another planetary cycle. Aerith and Sephiroth are aware of the previous cycles because of their direct connection to the Lifestream and the Holy materia.

@ffSteeD27 x.com/i/status/20684… This is kinda how I see it. AC is the direction Gaia heads when karmic memories aren't healed. Remake seems to be healing those karmic imprints that created AC.

For anyone who thinks FF7 Remake will avoid the ACC future, I'm genuinely curious to hear: -Which out of these 3 pictures makes the most sense to you. -How you'd solve the issues in each one of them.

This is an interview with Noisy Pixel. In this interview, I talk about how we are reimagining and reconstructing locations in FFVII REVELATION. We touch on areas such as Wutai, Rocket Town, and the Icicle region, and discuss the roles they will play, especially those that have not been fully explored before. I hope you enjoy it. - Noisy Pixelのインタビューです。 今回のインタビューでは、

Thats a really cool theory. Maybe in part the one that Cloud creates when he saves Aerith is partially made from Sephiroths desires as well. He seems to think of himself as a person outside of the creation process. But seemingly he does appear in all these worlds and cast meteor. In a world with No lifestream, no holy, he is able to harvest the dispair as these worlds fade. Now think of all that regret and pain fading from these planets inhabitants as they realize their world is ending, thats exactly what Sephiroth seems to want to flood back to the lifestream, corrupting it, changing it. He says the line "And in the planets embrace,all life is one." Hes aware that these worlds do return to the lifestream. But hes guided and allowed members to shape their own destinies to create these worlds, just so he can be part of their end. Thats what I think his true dreams and desires are. To never be forgotten, even if it means these souls are howling in pain.

@Ahleckss I’ve been thinking. What if the world we play in is made from Sephiroths unrealized desire or dreams. Isn’t it weird how obsessed everyone in the beagle world is with following their dreams or desires? Jessie, Biggs, Wedge, Johnny, Roche, Kyrie. Almost all the side characters.

I believe that these quotes are really important to the story. In the original Bugenhagen gives time for Cloud to reflect inward, what desires lie deep in his heart. There is an NPC in cosmo canyon that talks about her theory of what the lifestream is, and what the other planes of existence entails. I think this is so important. Zack mentions this as well to Biggs, to hold on to their hopes and dreams. I believe that these worlds are born from desire, regret, hopes and dreams. We see this when Cloud is taken to Aeriths '' dream'' world. This is an obvious reflection of her desire, hopes, dreams and regret. To spend one normal day with Cloud, one she hopes is separated from their fates. The NPC's in this scene seemingly reflect on Aerith's inner feelings. When Cloud saved Aerith, a world was born, one of Cloud's desire, regret, hopes and dreams. In this world Aerith lives, shes saved. Seemingly these worlds are doomed to fail, because they are cut off from the main source (lifestream). Cloud stands between these worlds, in doing so he's fracturing, he lives in a space where Aerith both lives and dies. Zack's conversation with Marlene is important to this, she tells Zack that if Cloud wakes up in these worlds, Aerith will die. So he has to make Cloud better before she wakes up. I think this is because of the control Sephiroth has over Cloud, playing on his grief and pain towards losing Aerith. Everywhere Cloud is, Sephiroth can find him. Peering through him like a looking glass. Cloud will hopefully heal through characters like Zack and Tifa, so that he's able to finally see Aerith in the world he created, That grief and pain doesn't follow him and he's finally able to see her as the man he is, The man who holds love in his heart. One where Zack saves Cloud, so he can save Aerith. I think Zacks line '' Just as worlds reunite they part, but who's to say they can't reunite again.'' is so important. (this is just a theory)

I think by even requesting they pull back marketing to 60% as you said before is requesting they change their marketing strategy. I run a large FFVII page with over 160,000 members. Trust me the majority is happy for the news and hype. Im telling you what I tell most members who want to avoid spoilers. Just dont read them.

So... the crash outs have reached the point of "fan" letters to the developers (Hamaguchi) to stop giving detailed interviews? Is that really where we are in this fandom?

@ProfNoctis Im so sorry for your loss. I'm sure you filled that pups life with beautiful memories. Make sure you take time for yourself. Sending you and your family all the love ♡

Just logging in to say thank you all for the kind words. Losing a pet is never easy, but the unexpected suddenness of this one hits hard. Your DMs and comments brought me a lot of peace. I’ll be back to normal soon. For now my family, Daisy, and I are just grateful to you all.

@KenMastersUSA Honestly that's so sad. 😭 I get so hype for the interviews. Its great to set expectations and build hype up for the reveal.

@KenMastersUSA @LuckyGhost0 We should totally do a talk space at some point. 😂 I had so much to say. Sad I had to leave early but dinner was calling me

@LuckyGhost0 Next time we'll have a longer period of time for guests.. we knew Nana and MLW had to bounce earlier than usual; so we wanted to cover as much news as we could in just the time we had.

What I love most about the #Clerith community is the diversity of opinions! Everyone is welcome to say what they think and everyone's ideas, as divergent as they might be, can be heard and celebrated. "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations" as someone might say.

@TylorHepnerArt @GloriosaZine This is so great! Congrats. I just applied to a FF Zine too so fingers crossed. Definitely going to be keeping my eyes peeled for the release ♡

Contributing a special new Sephiroth art to @GloriosaZine ✨ Look forward to updates on this soon!✨
