Also Aerith <3 I cried.
I cried too the first time I saw the end of Crisis Core. In fact I think it’s one of the saddest video game endings ever

I think one of the mass effect games has a sad one and I saw a list of some other newer games with some sad endings. But Crisis Core is up there for sure

Edit: also cried when Jessie Raspberry died in the FF7 remake. Man they did a great job with that character. Her and Aerith’s voice actresses were just on another level

Zack’s story is really the backstory to Cloud’s story. Stop reading here if you don’t want spoilers…


Cloud and Zack were friends, but only Zack was in Soldier, First Class. Cloud tried out and wasn’t good enough. In fact, Zack is kind of everything Cloud wished he could be. A better fighter, a more earnest and nicer personality, both from small towns. Cloud’s excuse for having a bitter and cynical personality in FF7 is that he has major major PTSD not only from being impaled by Sephiroth (a scene in crisis core) trying to help Zack AFTER Sephiroth had already killed Cloud’s mother and Tifa’s dad, but also afterwards Cloud is poisoned by Mako energy by a Shinra mad scientist wanting to turn him into another Soldier weapon like Zack

So at the end of Crisis Core Cloud’s brain is basically melted by Mako energy, so he can’t help as Zack gives his last words “the price of freedom is steep” and Zack dies in an un-winnable fight against an insurmountable amount of Shinra troops

The really sad part was that Zack was trying to get back to his gf, Aerith, who hadn’t seen him in 4 years while him and Cloud were being experimented on by the mad scientist. But Zack dies before he can get back to her. Cloud crawls over to Zack as he is dying, and Zack says “you will be my living legacy” and part of him imprints on Cloud’s Mako-poisoned mind. This is why Cloud believes he was a Soldier First Class, because Zack imprinted on him during his death. The entire plot of FF7 is actually Cloud trying to discover who he is

The really sad part, and the reason I cried, is because Aerith being an ancient can sense the lifestream. So when Zack dies and Aerith suddenly looks up from tending her flowers (in the video)…even though she hadn’t seen Zack in years and was still waiting for him, she just sensed at that moment that Zack died [You must be logged in to view images.

Anyone know where to get heels in a size 13? These bigots at Macy's don't carry real women size heels.

There should be an epilogue with Zack and Aerith in the promised land. That'd take the sting out of it. I guess it all would lose its impact.

Cloud makes a lot more sense now.

I totally agree. I hope they reunite one day in promised land

Aerith’s attraction to Cloud is partly because Cloud has so many of Zack’s mannerisms and the same eyes (from being poisoned by Mako)

There’s a short scene in the FF7 that touches on it, also kinda sad [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

My mother checks my Google history. Can a girl just get an honest question for once in her life.

roleplaying game btw

think you should seek help

lol? talking about rape and shit?
yeah, rape. its one of those horrible things leftover from caveman dna, you know: reality

roleplaying game: you willingly play the role of a female as a fantasy.

im not trashing you, im not-at-all-tactfully saying that there is for sure some alphabet person in any man who checks the "female" box at character select, on any game.

ofc some games have classes already set race/gender/ability, nothin you can do there.

but when you willfully roll a female class, as a male IRL, there is definitely, absolutely, subconscious exploration occurring.
