[QUOTE="Admin, post: 59940, member: 1"] Square Enix has finally explained the logic behind what many fans consider to be a plot hole in Final Fantasy 7 Remake, justifying it through Aerith having vague memories of future events. Final Fantasy 7 Remake's protagonist Cloud likes to keep to himself, so when he meets Aerith and she already knows he's an ex-SOLDIER (a specific military group) and now a mercenary, there's no obvious way for her to know that. It's been a hotly-contested moment for years, with players' strongest theory being that a friend of Aerith called Zack was also a SOLDIER, so she'd recognise the look, but many others still didn't buy it. Square Enix has finally weighed in through a [URL='https://twitter.com/FFVIIR_CLOUD/status/1683401637824708608']tweet[/URL] translated by [URL='https://www.siliconera.com/square-enix-talks-about-aeriths-future-memories-in-ffvii-remake/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=square-enix-talks-about-aeriths-future-memories-in-ffvii-remake']Siliconera[/URL], and [B]spoilers for both versions of Final Fantasy 7 ahead[/B], it's just as weird as the other meta plotlines happening in Remake. [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/final-fantasy-7-remakes-biggest-story-changes']Just as the new version is changing key story moments[/URL] before strange ghost monsters called Whispers force them back into place, Aerith is hearing similar echoes of the multiverse. Even though the pair hadn't met until now, Aerith has vague memories of future events thanks to her multiverse self already knowing Cloud, Square Enix said. When Aerith calls him a mercenary, she's apparently doing so unintentionally because she subconsciously already holds this information. The Whispers are trying to undo and "correct" these plot changes from the original game though, as the tweet explains they sap some of Aerith's future memories every time they touch her.
