I really don't know if I'm actually trying to say anything here.
And the worse is both suck... There are some scenes in FF7 that even get me emotional (such as when Red XIII finds out his father fought for Cosmo Canyon) I can even understand dropping a tear or two, but leaving the game because of that and not being able to concentrate?

And for those that think Aeris sucked, you do realize Aeris is THE BEST character in the game right? Great Gospel makes Evil Wall look like a baby, not to mention she had that limit break where she fills the others limit break bars, which is just plain awesome... Even story wise she was the most important character... She was emotional and cute, whats not to like about her?
When you get her she is terrible, and her Limit Breaks are the only benefit while using her in battle. Very few people are going to take the time to reach Great Gospel before she dies. You would probably use Great Gospel once against the Demon Wall or whatever it's called at the end of the Temple of the Ancients, but that's it. I admit, she could be a useful character if you used a Gameshark to bring her back for the rest of the game. That's a different scenario. Of course, the combination of Final Attack paired with Phoenix pretty much gives you invincibility anyway, so she still wouldn't be that great at the end.

I hated her story-wise also for the reasons I already said above. I guess what you see as emotional and cute I see as persistent and annoying.
