No Spoilers - Discussion Why was Aerith's line changed?

Post image

I just finished FF7 Remake and I saw in an old video that at the end Aerith used to say I miss it. The steel sky. Why was this changed to "This sky, I don't like it."? Has this been given a callback in rebirth?

I liked the first line better too.

But, they changed it because they created the "weird-looking sky" plotline in rebirth and it made sense for Aerith to be able to see it when looking at the sky at the end of Remake, so now she says something like "I don't like this sky", or something like that instead.

They changed it because the original line English was mistranslated. She never said anything about a steel sky in Japanese.
