I’m enjoying FF7 Rebirth more than Remake so far (I was so sick of being in that uglyass city), but as someone who is not familiar with the og FF7 the sudden party member affection system absolutely blindsided me

#me a completionist that wants to be besties w everyone: yeah of course I’ll climb the clock tower w you aerith!!#aerith later when we meet up w the rest of the party: we were on a DATE 🥰 teehee #me: 🤠 what #bg3 sucker-punched me like this too. cant i just hang out with my friends??? 😭#what about this was even romantic?? 😭 we just walked up some stairs #i wish rebirth was default platonic with the option of romantic routes if you choose a romantic dialogue option or something #i should be able to max affection without threat of romance #like aerith’s quest in costa del sol is killing me. i want to complete it so bad but i can’t unless i go on a date with her #and i can’t do it like that’s zack’s girl lmao even if he’s dead i can’t help feeling like it’s the zack inside of cloud drawing #cloud and aerith together like that (in a romantic sense)#it’s like the same reason i can’t get behind repliku w namine or sora w namine #the true source of those feelings come from someone else/someone else’s memories and feelings #and/or those feelings are for someone else #so it feels like a lie to me. it’s not the truth. idk #I’m a big fan of the friendship between cloud and aerith. they were my faves in remake #but new context makes romance between them feel kinda :/#you know what i mean? idk #anyway. please just let me be best friends with everyone
