Just wondered if any of you were believers in the incomplete game theory.
If you're not familiar (SPOILERS) it is the theory that Aeries either wasn't supposed to die originally at the end of disk one or was supposed to be brought back at somepoint thereafter. Of course she did die and was never brought back.
If you ask me, I think the game works better with her dying. A: It's very powerful. B: She gets that great scene at the very end where her image pops up as Holy is stopping the meteor from hitting the planet, implying that with her death and return to the planet she was helping to control Holy in defence of the planet. I just think that final image was very very important to the end of the story.
But, it's intriquing. The points for the theory are strong. One suggest that the theory is real because during your final battle when your party is divided into 3 groups, one of the groups is a man/woman short. Also it is very very difficult to get Aeries final limit break without fighting more than you've ever fought before prior to her death. And on a production note, there was heavy speculation that the end of the game was rushed, perhaps preventing developers from having the time to flesh out her re-emergence in the story.
So what do you think?
