But nobody cares if you say Exdeath instead of Exodus?

The ending of the game doesn't work if you don't do it, so you have to or you're bad at video games.

Because nobody cares about FFV, not even Squenix.

FFVII is the one that keeps getting milked and so Aerith is the character that they chose to fix the translation for in every subsequent milking after the original game.

It's dumb cause "Aeris" is a perfectly fine transliteration. It's like being mad they changed "Mash" to "Sabin".

Or like watching dragonball and someone saying "It's not Krillin, it's Kuririn!"

Aeris was literally a translation error that was only on the naming screen, if you glitch to skip it she defaults to Aerith.

I agree that it's trivial and no reason to get worked up over, but these things aren't the same though.
Sabin and Krillin didn't receive an "updated translation" beyond their initial appearance. All English material after Krillin's first appearance in DB doesn't list him as Kuririn.
Aerith or Aeris has been known as Aerith for 20 years yet you still have the "she's Aeris because I ignore all official material beyond the one infamous for grammatical and translation errors" crowd. Which is perfectly fine, prefer whatever you want. You can name her whatever you want in the original game anyway.

People tend to get mad when confronted with stupidity or ignorance. I assume that when they hear someone mispronounce Aerith as Aeris, they think that they're intentionally saying it wrong given how clear SE has been with her name officially being Aerith.

It wasn't a translation error though. Aerith isn't a word. It was changed because it sounded better. There's really no "error" to be made in this case. It's not like "this guy are sick" or "off course!" which are translation errors.

Like maybe it wasn't meant to be done some way or another, but not really a mistake in the same way the grammatical stuff is.

Ultimately I'm with you though that it's trivial. So not trying to die on the hill or anything here lol. This is an exhibition hill dying.

Names arent entirely considered to be words in the sense and names can take on different spellings.

Im sure youre aware, but the original intent of her name was to have it be very similar to the word Earth, both because of her relationship with the lifestream and because of her star-crossed relationship with Cloud. While Aeris sounds very similar to the Japanese pronunciation of Earth, it sounds nothing like the English pronunciation, so the correct translation of the name would be Aerith, which does sound kind of similar to the English word.

I haven't seen many people get butt hurt over people saying Aeris, generally it's the "her name is Aeris" people who are perpetually butt hurt. They freak out every time they see the name Aerith.

Except there was an error made.

Actually, 'Aerith' is her name in the KERNEL.BIN initial character attributes table. However the field script that calls the rename dialog defaults it to 'Aeris'.

He's called Butz Klauser in Japan. It's not even a translation issue because in Dissidia it's spelled "Butz Klauser".

I don't care if people want to keep saying Aeris, I just wish more people would admit they do it only because of familiarity instead of justifying it by saying Aerith sounds dumb. Aeirth only sounds dumb because you got used to Aeris. If Aerisu is Aeris then Sephirosu should be Sephiros, but the same people don't think "Sephiroth" sounds like someones using a lisp. Because they were used to Sephiroth and never questioned it.
