The enigma of Final Fantasy VII’s heartrending story unfolds over a span of 27 years, since its release in 1997. Recently, a savvy gamer discovered a way to alter fate and prevent Aerith’s tragic demise.
This groundbreaking revelation comes from speedrunners, AceZephyr and Kuma, who uncovered a glitch in the original FF7 game that allows players to bypass the usual narrative constraints. By exploiting this glitch, players can traverse from the initial city of Midgar to the Forgotten Capital in another continent seamlessly, enabling Aerith to remain a part of the party and even witness her own demise at the hands of Sephiroth.
However, the use of this method comes with its own risks. Keeping Aerith in the party beyond her intended departure can lead to game-breaking glitches if she is present in scenes where she shouldn’t be. Additionally, navigating underwater poses the danger of encountering enemies that can cause the game to freeze.
