Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's writer once resisted finishing where the original JRPG's tragic twist occurs, preferring a point that could have led to a much shorter game

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth could have rolled credits much sooner in the💧 story if the game's writer stuck to his original 🧔idea.

Tidbits from the bulky Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth explainer book continue to trickle outside of Japan as developer interviews get unofficial transla﷽tions. The latest details explain that scenario writer Kazushꦅige Nojima originally toyed with ending the game when Tifa falls into the mako reactor, roughly halfway through our universe's version of Rebirth.

, a social media account dedicated to translating Final Fantasy 7 news, Nojima "resisted the idea" of ending the sequel at the Forgotten Capital. Nojima supposedly felt that closing on Aerith's fate would be "poor form," while calling Tifa's fate into question could serve as a better hook for a third game. 

Plans changed "for the sake of fewer parts to the project," and in hindsight, we can all be thankful that speculati🦋on around Aerith's fate wasn't elongated by several years. The Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy already plans to stretch one classic into three separate parts and ending♕ Rebirth that much sooner would have almost certainly guaranteed a fourth one, too. 

I also have a sneaking suspicion that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Rebirth's current ending is a much juicier cliffhanger than Tifa's fate in the Gongaga mako reactor would have been. Decades-long fans would know for sure that our favorite bartender wouldn't be dead in such an anti-climatic fashion, and as it stands now, Rebirth's finale remiꦐxes one of gaming's most infamous scenes. 

Final Fantasy 7 Re🧸birth players have been divided about the changes made but engrossed in piecing it all together anyway. The fact that the Ultimania explain💖er book can't even expla♕in what's happening only makes the future even more exci🌱ting.
