I myself was in the 9th grade when i beat FF7. Did any of you get all emotional over the death of his friends? Aeris, now that was sad. What about the plate falling and killin wedge, I think it was wedge and who else died in that seen? I can't remember someone fill me in! :huh:

Peace,
Octavius
 
i first played seven in 6th or 7th grade and yes, i was very emotional, especially at the aeris scene. i was soo distressed over it that still to this day i refuse to use aeris so that i dont get attached to her again.....lol i just makes the game a much more pleasent experiance having not built her up just to lose her at the end of disc 1.
 
... XD

I can't say I've ever become emotion at the loss of 'friends' in game. The most I've got to emotional was '=O' when Aeris got a ploughing by Sephiroth. I could see it happening, as it was pretty much staring me in the face since she left your party, but it was still a shocking sight to see. Besides, it was the first FF game I'd played which involved a party member being killed off completely.
 
I was shocked when Aeris died. I wouldn't call myself emotianal, but I felt for her death left me in a saddened state of mind.

And the 3 AVALANCHE members that were killed when the plate fell were Biggs, Wedge, & Jessie.
 
First time i got to that bit i was angry and upset.
Aries was one of my favorate characters and Sepiroth killed her.
Sad, sad.
​
 
Biggs, Wedge and Jessie! Ok now I know who died during the plate falling. Thanks for the information.

Peace,
Octavius
 
I definitely get emotional when a character dies. I cried when Aeris died. I still get sad when I think about her.

While Aeris is the most emotional a video game character's death ever made me, I still feel the loss.
 
Im 32 years old and I played FFVII when I was 22. I cried when Aerith died. I love literature and I class Final Fantasy as being as valid as any novel.

I guess part of the reason that I'm still here talking about a stupid computer game is that it affected me so much.
 
2 tell u guys the truth i could neva beat 7.... s0 idk the end even though yeah i probally would've cried i thought it was a hard game........ well i'm not a newbie but i'm not an expert becuzz i beat all of the others after 7 but not ff 7:'(
 
I was very numb when Aerith died and I expected her to come back the first time I played. It was the first time I had seen a video game character get stabbed all the way through with a sword with 3D graphics. Now I dread when I get near that part of the game. I was also sad when Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie died. I thought they were cool characters.

For some reason, I get a little sad when Anna dies in IV. She's not even close to being a major character.

And general Leo in VI. I get sad when he goes because I thought he was a great character.
 
I was really shocked when Biggs, Wedge and Jessie died in the beginning from the falling plate and even felt a little sad for Barret, but I was just stung (and like Rydia said) really numb when Aerith died. Not to mention I was shocked. After the initial shock wore off, I was heartbroken. I was extremely attatched (and still am) to her character, I was starting to see the relationship between her and Cloud blossom into something beautiful only to have it being torn away and was upset for Cloud too and I admit I cried from it. I didn't break down and bawl like a banshee or anything but it tugged at my heartstrings pretty good.

Click to expand...

that's a very good point...why did she leave your party, her chance of winning alone is very low
 
But at that time all we knew was that she was a Cetra and that she was going to stop Sephiroth, so how could we have known she was going to die? I sure didn't. She even stated at the time that she would come back when it was all over so none of us who wasn't spoiled by it didn't know she was going to die. Also if you were like me and a lot of others and actually paid attention to the storyline and her role she played in it, then you would have thought the same as me.
 
I cried when Sephiroth killed aeris/aerith (don't completley understand the name change but w/e).
But...I got over it, as you can see. Aeris's death kinda killed my heart in a sense...jeez, a 16 year old crying to a video game...who knew?
 
It's more of like "Wow! That just happened? Daaaaang...."

Not really emotional, more shocked or surprised, but I wouldn't say emotional.
 
I wouldn't say I got emotional about it, but then I first played FFVII in 2001, long after it first came out, and even I by then had heard about the whole Aeris getting killed off spoiler. Like the post above, I suspect that if I hadn't known I would have been pretty surprised, but not upset or anything like that.
