Key Points:
- Naoki Hamaguchi, director of the Final Fantasy 7 trilogy, revealed that a particular scene in the upcoming third chapter, Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, made him cry every time he played it, totaling about 40 playthroughs.
- The emotional scene involves Cloud experiencing a moment of introspection where he discovers his identity and its connection to characters Zack and Aerith, a key story element portrayed in a new or expanded way in Revelation.
- The Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy often expands or alters the original 1997 story, so this introspective scene may be a new plot point not present in the original PS1 game.
- Hamaguchi expressed excitement about fans' reactions to the ending of Revelation, noting that the conclusion had been planned from the early stages of development, though he could not share specific details.
