Let's discuss Cloud's main love interest: Aerith or Tifa

[Aerith's Knight]

Do you even need to ask?

And after 12 years..

My question is simply this.

Why does anyone care?

This.

Because come on, what else is there left to debate about for this game

There is nothing left to debate. That's my point.

Let's wrap up what we'll come out to in the end.

1. Cloud liked Tifa as a child. Tifa was bitchy and ignored him.
2. Cloud likes/loves Aerith, everything's great, then she dies.
3. Tifa comforts Cloud, brings him into sanity, and they fall in love, eventually adopting two mentally disturbed children.
