FF7 Rebirth Ending Raises Questions Around Cloud's Memories and Aerith's Fate
- Cloud is an unreliable narrator who confuses his own memories with Zack's, calling into question events shown in the game
- The ending of FF7 Rebirth is confusing with implications of multiple worlds/timelines and Aerith's fate unclear
- In Rebirth, Cloud again falsely recalls the Nibelheim incident, showing his memories are still unreliable
- The ending alternates between scenes where Cloud saves Aerith and where she dies, leaving it ambiguous
- Zack surviving and questioning the events suggests there may really be multiple worlds at play, not just Cloud's mixed memories
