I cared little. She was just another fell character in an attempt to turn around an already boorish plot. So long as Vincent still lives, I'm sure we are all just fine and dandy.

I don't think is a wise thread title. There aren't many, but I'd guess that there are a few people who dont' know that Aeris dies. And if they wanted to find out when it happened, sucks for them, they now know.
Wow. I have to disagree. If anyone of methodic principles didn't know, they would should they read the FAQ thread. That was the first thing I did. So, meh.

Besides, the game has been out for over ten years. I believe it was after one or two when spoiler tags are deemed unneeded.
