Aerith *spoilers*

[macfais]

What is the point of leveling up Aerith and her weapons? I mean she is going to die anyway. So she will be useless at the end part of the game. Leveling up Cloud, Tifa and characters who won't die sounds better for me because I won't be wasting resources I worked and grinded for. Why should I put her in my party if I know she will die. What is the point of training her and grinding her if we know she will eventually got impaled to death by Sephiroth.

Are you guys going to include Aerith on your team? She is very important for the story but her death will hurt less if we barely use her. I will focus on Barret and Tifa as team mates for Cloud.

Aerith is essential to many bossfights because she is a healer. By the time that she dies, her healing abilities will be inherited by one of the characters. This is an episodic game, so I think she will be alive for multiple episodes and will die towards the end because her role is going to be expanded. It will take forever before other characters learn healing so I will definitely use her while she is alive.

 

[Bartz_FFV]

Her level 1 limit breaks are useful in many boss fights, so I won't say its a waste to train her. She is very useful while she is alive. Many Boss Fights will be super hard without her around. By the time that she dies, she already help to level up many of your characters.

Also using her wont be a waste since her teammates will be levelled up too.

She have the best attacks, Best limit breaks, healing ability and best spells. Consider her as a great weapon with expiration date that you have to enjoy while it last. level her up on the first chapter by grinding so you can enjoy her while she is around. She is one of the strongest party members and her death's purpose is to piss you off and hate Sephiroth

 

[Hova]

You need to include Aerith for her healing abilities and of course for protecting your party members. Also, yopu need to remember that she is capable of magic, so that is another reason to include her on your team. It is just a shame that the experience she gains, all goes to waste because of her early death.

 

[Keibah]

Gameplaywise, she would be super overpowered if she didn't die. They give her the strongest limit breakers in the game. I remember using gameshark, so she will remain playable after her death. She is very OP.

 

[Wiqar Neha]

I won't use her neither so I wont be dependent on her and struggle the moment she dies because I rely too much on her powers. I have a feeling she will die on episode 2 so that will be a waste of training and items I grinded for.

 

[ultimecia28]

Canonically Aerith have no match against Sephiroth since he killed her. Gameplaywise, Aerith can destroy Sephiroth, All her attacks, limit breakers and healing are OP. So they killed her off before she becomes a cheap character who is overpowered. I managed to level 99 her before her death by grinding in the early areas and all boss fights before her death becomes too easy.

@Keibah That Gameshark code was so satisfying since that cheat gives Aerith her "revenge"

 

[m_cel]

I won't be playing her at all. I will rather spend items and upgrades to characters who will be there until the end. There should be some sort of incentive for using her after she dies. If there is none, I have no reason to play her at all.

That gives me more reason not to play her. I will rather spend game currency on Tifa ,Red and Barrett

 

[marblank1313]

I will just enjoy her benefits while it last. Also who knows there could be an alternate ending where she won't die.

 

[Hailey Washington]

I usually max her on the earliest parts of the game by grinding so I can enjoy all of her limit breakers before she dies. It will be very beneficial early on. If you guys don't want to use her because she will die, well you do you.

 

[JimmyFap]

I also have no plans of using her. I want to level up characters I can use until the very end. There should be some sort of a reward for the player after her death to make me play her.

Goodluck on not having a healer on your team. She is necessary to use because healing is important early on. You will spending a lot of healing items without her.

 

[tallulah]

As someone who never played the original, You just spoiled the game for me.

Ummm You didn't notice the the word spoiler in the title? I think the title is already a red flag by that alone, So there is no reason to be angry about that.

 

[Drake]

I am pretty sure she was required on many quests of this game. I don't remember her being optional but she has always been part of my party when I played back then. She have the most powerful limit breakers so I always used her until Sephiroth made a kebobs out of her.

 

[Bartz_FFV]

The game is episodic and Episode 1 will be a super long game. Aerith will also not die on Episode 1 so I don't think it will be a waste to use her. She will have a longer role on this game. By the end of episode 1 she will still be alive. I am sure you will replay episode 1 multiple times while waiting for episode 2 so one way or another you will player her.

 

[Fantasia]

I will still play her but I am going to do my best to max her out before the episode where she will face her demise. I will try to max her at episode 1 just in case she dies on episode 2.

 

[Flvtochk3225]

You guys will be waiting for multiple months before episode 2 gets released so within those months of waiting, I am sure you will end up playing Aerith for replay value sake.

You don't know what you are missing, I already played episode 1 and she is very fun to play with. You will be waiting for a long time before episode 2, so you will replay the game multiple times while waiting. Give her a try!

Also many remakes made changes, what if she wont die on this version.
