@Memor-X I think that you are focusing too much on specific examples but in this case the point wasn't any specific thing in the first place
After FF16 I get the felling they are already at a new low on user engagement (say what you wish but FF16 sales were lower than they expected and the reception not that great either)
Now, either they try a desperate and pathetic move to delay the tragedy... "game ends a second before Aerith should die, we will meet again in part 3 in 4 years, hopefully our executives will find a solution"
And I will add that personally... I will enjoy much the scene, while eating pop-corn and drinking bubble-tea
The "idiots" manged to sell expectations that the thing - Aerith specifically - will have a different outcome, starting with the very first Japan tv ads for the game

A- Anyway you..
B- Yes?
A- Have you never played FF7?
B- Well.. I haven't.. rather.. No
A- What about you?
C- Well, I have... I mean.. I've watched it.
A- The scene that remains in your memories?
C- Whaaa.... the event where Cloud dresses up as a girl!
A- Full score answer!!
C- Oh, and when Aerith.. Seph...
A- Ah! Stop!! You can't say That!
B- I know (about) Aerith
C- Right right right
B- It was written on the web.
C- Seph....
A- Wait wait wait..... What have you guys done!
B- Seems like there is another route
B- Yes?

"The route does not exist, but only in the old game. What will happen now will happen in the Remake" etc etc etc
at the same time they constantly reassure the "purist" that want Aerith death that there is no "big change" and it is "the same game".

Aerith fandom "THOSE PIECE OF TRASH LIED TO SELL US THEIR GARBAGE AGAIN! KILL THEM!"
@Nzall So far the dev have tried to appeal both those who would want a different plot with Aerith living at the end of the game and the purist crew who thinks that any difference would ruin the game.
@Nzall there is no connectivity between the games. Also, I don't expect them to go alt routes. That could be an option, true, I just don't see them commit to it.
As now, I am thinking they will either change it and try to win over the old fans who wanted her to stay dead with the whole "this is a sequel" thing or they will try to sweeten the pill with the alt timeline stuff (your original plot is still there in world A, she lives with Xeno Zack in Cotton City world B)

Also fucking hell I hate SO. Ask a question about a security vulnerability, saying Hey ELI5, I don't understand the concept as to why I should patch this vulnerability. Answer JUST PATCH IT stackoverflow.com/questions/77183102/…
Like god fucking damn it fuckers, I know any bit of cybersecurity is important, but I don't need to rebuild a whole website for an attack that is so out there that on the whole internet it happens 10 times a year
Like yeah, I could replace the door to my house by a bank vault door, will make people can't pick my lock, but is it worth me putting 100k down to make the change? It WOULD BE SAFER....
but now its a security vulnerability it seems. And I would basically need to redo most of the site to do so.
And then we wonder why we dont have new users when when you ask a question you spin a wheel to know if the answer will just be a slap to the face and told to sit the fuck down
@Memor-X code edition is disabled. But they have their own server, so they could put code in via FTP if they are morons
@Memor-X Yup, what I find funniest is that you could spend hours and hours on cybersecurity, guess what. Most hacks I hear of these days the weakest link is not a computer
Like the Desjardins (Bank) hack my personal info was a part of; Just an employee that took basically the whole table of clients of the bank, took all the columns like the SSN, clicked export. Put it on an USB key and by the time the bank figured it out, info was already compromised and on the dark web
I see what you are saying, but also.
- Site has been running for 5 years. No hacks.
- Rating on 10 of how much the security would be improved: Security would probably go from 9.7 to 9.72
- If the site gets hacked and destroyed, nothing of note can be looted from it, and loading a backup would fix everything.

And part of my job is to tell the client what should be the best approach. Spending thousands of dollars for a very small improvement yes would make me work, but still its annoying to work splitting hairs while there is a lot more better work to do
Like I said at the beginning: You have a house. When you go out you lock the door, turn on the security system. Cool.
Cybersecurity is like YEAH BUT WE SHOULD PUT A BANK VAULT DOOR AS YOUR FRONT DOOR, WOULD PREVENT THIEVES FROM PICKING THE LOCK.
Its gonna cost you 100k. Yeah, can't say its not safer, but still. I'm now a construction worker that has to figure out how to put a fucking bank vault door as a front door.
