The difference was in the level of character development. Many had a strong attachment to Aeris because she was more tangible. While FFIV is a God in its own right, it did lack in any strong character development (who shed a tear when Anna died, for instance?) Aeris' death was especially wrecking if you had been using her in your party the whole time, as there were many cutscenes/sequences that you wouldn't normally have.
