Final Fantasy VII Message Board  

Greetings everybody!

As there's already an FAQ/Walkthrough on here (and about another ten million elsewhere on the net) I won't bother polishing one up or perfecting one, as other people have already put in the time and effort.

Instead, I aim to fully answer in as much detail as possible, any and all simple or intricate questions people have about Final Fantasy VII regarding the game, where to go, what to do and how to do it.

Final Fantasy VII is one of my all time favorite games, and I aim to do my best in helping others who may be stuck, or simply seek a little guidance, no matter how silly or trivial the question.

We've all been stuck on games before, and I'd like to help you become un-stuck. ^_^

I have one.
after Aerith dies she has unique text during certain parts of the game and yet people on the web say that they have proof that square didnt intend for aerith to be playeable after disk 1.

So your question is what exactly?

Square released FF7 pretty much as is was meant to be with minor changed near the end production phase of the game, Aerith dies during the storyline at the exact point on the disks she is supposed to, otherwise the game wouldn't make much sense.

Aerith was always designed to be a playable character right up until she dies, that was the entire point, to create a sense of loss for the player to lose a character that they have spent time using.

Hey there..fireflypoi..i just started playing this game....and its kind of the beginning.. when reno kidnaps Aerith first time.. when shinra orderd to destroy sector 7.. we escape the collision using the wire..and then we need to go to Aerith's house and a flash back starts.. and then if i am right we need to go to wall market... but the path to there is blocked two kids sitting in the way... if i go to the other way where the temple where cloud met Aerith..if i go in i find aerith there but then it goes on like the first meeting where we need to get her out of the temple through the roof..

am i doing something wrong???

Thanks in advance ^_^

First you need to make sure you've done the cut-scenes of the guards chasing you and Aeris through the building, with you on the rooftop pushing barrels down to help her escape.

Then once you've done that, exit through the roof and keep hopping along the rooftops, and once you reach the slums follow Aeris northwest and she'll lead you to a small town.

When you're done looking around the town, Aeris' home is to the east.

And my apologies for the delay!

No No its ok..im happy tat u replied...

wel as i said i done all tat.. and after recuing tifa from this guy forgot his name we go the home of tifa and there was this commotion on top of the tower baron is fighting. and when we go there we hav to fight reno and then he kidnaps aerith. and then we go to aeriths house and then her mother tells us how she got to know aerith.. after the flashback we need to go where?? i think we need to go to wall street.. but the passege to wall street(a hole in the wall) is blocked by 2 kids sitting in front of it...??? and if i go the other way where the church(where we met aerith and saved her from reno) is... it goes back so tat i have to save her again from reno by rolling down the barrels??

Ah, I got stuck on this for a while the first time round as well. Once you head north towards Corneo's mansion, you'll see 2 kids that will run off - make a note of which direction they run because thats where you go.

But first, go and check the weapons shop, talk to the guy who looks busy as he sells Batteries which you need later, they are 100gil each.

After than leave the weapons shop and follow the direction of where the kids ran off to, then you'll find a big wire around that area, which you need to climb up.

Now comes some little sequences where you need to put the batteries you just bought at the weapons shop into the little power terminals by the propellors to make your way to the Shinra building.

Hope that's more helpful?

Okay this is wat i wanted but.. i couldnt get to corneos house...
here is wat i did... after the flash back i came out of the house and went to exit to the town where the shops r.. and then when i exit i need go left where there will be a wall with a huge crack through which we have to go to get to corneos house.. right??
