If Genesis never existed (taking into account the games timeline not the way they were implemented IRL). Sephiroth most likely wouldn't have went all "Mother I will bring us to the promised land"
Except he wasn't there in the original and it still happened. The only people at the Nibelheim reactor were Sephiroth, Cloud, Zack, and Tifa. There was another nameless grunt, but he died when the bridge collapsed. Sephiroth jumped to the conclusion - albeit correctly - that he might be like the monstrosities in the capsules on his own. He didn't need a Gackt insert to lay it all out for him and somehow know all about Hojo's dirty secret.
From Genesis wiki
"His words, combined with what Sephiroth learns about his origins in the Shinra Manor, spark his descent into madness, and he burns Nibelheim to the ground and is seemingly killed by Cloud within the reactor."
Genesis /led/ sephiroth to read those notes and all that in VII
SE didn't just ADD him for no reason. They made him the catalyst for Sephiroths decent into madness.
CC ties in perfectly with VII. And as I said. Genesis was the real reason Sephiroth went mad.
