The sad thing about this is that Aerith is a Cetra, which has deep connections and being able to commune with the lifestream. Her surprised face was because she knew the exact moment when Zack's life force returned to the lifestream

[@GoGetMarked]

yet she didn't know anything about him in the original ff7 or remake.

[@SSgtJ0hns0n]

​@@GenoKiller7 same Best ending of all time for crisis core 😢

[@BobMarley-tm1st]

One of the worst things about this ending came when I was older. I was really young when I started playing this game so I only learned much later on that the DMW represents Zack's thoughts and that the reason it was fading to white was because Zack's life was literally flashing before his eyes. His mind was literally shutting down as his body began to break from all of his injuries and he slowly but surely began to die. Seriously, that is psychotically fucking cruel. Shinra are some truly evil bastards.

[@papershadow]

The second reel is what fucks me up the most. Even when everyone else fades, Aerith stayed around in the DMW. Clinging to her and his drive to see her again was the only thing that kept Zack going as long as he did, but eventually even that reached his physical limit (Aerith if I recall corresponds to a recovery effect if you match her so in gameplay terms it's almost dangling the idea of a second-wind to survive the fight if someone doesn't know Zack's fate from VII, which I think was in optional cutscenes)

[@UKERU00]

this game was the only game that genuinely made me cry, that last roulette hit like a ton of bricks and it was downhill from there After this game I end up thinking crisis core storytelling was better than the OG game, such is the power of a strong as fuck ending sequence

[@carlosbarrera9636]

Imo The plot as a whole is better in FF7 but lile you said the storytelling/narrative is way better in crisis core

[@champ6436]

i played ff2-3-4-6-9-10-13-15 but crisis core is the only one were i was trully emotionally involved, its the only one that really hit me and make me realize that it would probably be the only game to affect me in such a way. other FF like 10 13 15 had sad end but it doesn't came close to zack death.

[@teshimartinz7690]

ff 10 and 10 part 2 was always my favorite until i played crisis core they were the only ones that made me emotional than the other series

[@nekotorin]

I'm always a fan of games utilizing gameplay to tell a story. FFVII Crisis core nailed that with the DMW roulette coz we use it the whole game only for it to hit us like a truck when it started to symbolize what Zack was thinking about on his final battle. Storytelling through gameplay is the one thing other forms of media like books or movies will never be able to achieve

[@米28モテない村村民]

このシーン覆したくて何度も泣きながらリセットしたなぁ… ゲーム史上最高に泣いたイベントバトルだった

[@papershadow]

Crisis Core seems made in a sort of stark contrast to a major element of FF7's story. FF7 is famous for how sudden and (all thing considered) un-foreshadowed/unprompted Aerith's death is, effective because it shows how abruptly death can hit someone and turn the entire world upside down for friends and loved ones. Crisis Core on the other hand took a death everyone knew to occur and that didn't have much emotional weight when first shown (Zack's fairly minimal in VII proper and his role is more about how his life and death affected Cloud's persona), and made it its mission to get the player invested to the point they would pray against what they knew was coming

[@DarkAngelGuyver]

The ENG version on the PSP just gutted me. When Zack's staring up at the sky and you hear Aerith say "Heloooo!" right before that last gunshot.

[@Ucj334esd]

クライシスコアの何が泣けるかってザックスの最期なんだけど、演出だけじゃなくてアンジールから受け継いだバスターソード欠ける、すり減る、汚れる、アンジールから受け継いだ意志をザックス自身もまたアンジールと同じ理由でバスターソードを使っているんだけど、アンジールの場合はソルジャーに普及されてる剣がメイン。ザックスはバスターソードの峰打ち。要は基本的には某アニメ主人公のように逆刃刀にして振りまわしてるんだけど大量の新羅兵に突撃する前はしっかり逆刃刀にして刃が逆向きなのに対して「夢を抱きしめろ、どんな時でもソルジャーの誇りは手放すな」のセリフの後逆刃刀からしっかり刃を下に向けてんのよね。この時ソルジャーの誇りはクラウドだったからね。流石に大量の新羅兵相手に峰打ちは無理だって理由はもちろんだけど、それ以上にバスターソードをすり減らしてでも、欠けさせてでも、汚してでもソルジャーの誇り、自由(クラウド)を守る為だけにバスターソードを振るってるって意志の表れがね…マジで鳥肌立った。ほんと泣かせにきやがるw

[@snailthelostcow63]

This gameplay is just Subaru being in constant agony since she still remembers FF7 clear as day Also, can I mention how evil the slot system is and not because of the system itself but because CLEARLY it was made just for this last battle alone. It's like "since the players already knew Zack will die anyway, let's torture them with feelings"

[@scottrauch1261]

Most of the game the slots hurt me with rng. But at the end it decided to switch to emotional damage.

[@chaoscontroller316]

For me the slot machine was my friend. It almost always got me out of a fight, even in fights I was gonna win anyway. So for it to basically be my ticket out of a jam, to suddenly betray me at the final fight when I felt like I could win, that felt like a true sign of the end.

@@Ucj334esd Still No, but I got the reason wrong, most soldiers only get Marko infusion, successful infusion of Jehovah cells had only occurred in utero at this time, Hojo was trying to make a new sephiroth, but Zack's solider body rejected the cells, and while Cloud did take, the amount of Mako exposure fried his brain.

Just want to notice that for the full game the main theme was that Zac couldn't protect anything even though he tried and wanted to "become a hero" (unreachable goals are the best ones - as his boss commented). With the especially hurtful part of it being not able to protect Angel. In the last fight even though he died he finally achieved his goal by protecting something he wanted to protect, so even though he died he won this war, so he could die happy with his "living legacy" secured and his dream achieved. Too bad wasn't able to meet Aerith one more time. Still sad as fuck for me though.

This game is still a core memory. My father funny enough was the one to introduce me to FF7. Compared to the other FFs though? It wasn't necessarily my favorite. The characters and fights were cool and there were many great (and sad) moments but I didn't care for it nearly as much as others did. Until I played Crisis Core. CC gave me so much context that made me fall in love with FF7 way more than the original had done. Being half Japanese I often went to Japan to visit grandparents during our long near 2 month summer breaks and on one of those trips I had my PSP. I played these final moments on in the first hour or so after being allowed to use electronics. I cried so damn hard on that plane.
