"Cloud receives a signal from Jessie to enter through the back door."
This is the best recap i have ever seen. I didnt want to watch 12 hours of cutscenes or replay the whole game, and most recaps skip over tons of important stuff. This recap legit included everything so i can pick up where I left off with my memory refreshed completely.
You deserve so much praise for the time and effort you put into this video. The least I do is thumbs up.
How much of the script was: "Cloud suffers another mental lapse"
Great game, loved it! Time to replay on hard now! Few things to note about this video though: 1. After Jenova is defeated, Sephiroth picks up Jenova from the floor, not Marco. 2. Barret was stabbed and would have died, but a Whisper revives him as (quoting Red XIII) "This death was not the one ordained for you by fate" 3. Tseng has no response because it appears that he cannot see them.
29:21 That scene can also have Aerith visit Cloud in a dream and warn him not to fall in love with her, telling him that everyone dies sooner or later.
“Her” refers to the planet, not Aerith. The Japanese version explained plainly how lives cycle/loop in the planet, somehow the English version made the last chapter overly convoluted....
Magically disabled? Sephiroth straight up murdered him. XD It's only because the Whispers healed him, that he's still alive.
where has your channel been my entire youtube life?! You do a amazing job of really getting the "meat and potatos" of these massively complex games explained. Its hard to describe Final Fantasy(or any complex rpg) plots to people without sounding like a ranting lunatic. you loose people really quick and they do what i like to call "the batman" which is when you start explaining why its so good and they in about 2 minutes somehow disappear when you blink or turn your head for a second. You sir are very good at this craft...... explaining these games, not the batman trick....
I love how I was waiting for this video after watching your complete FFVII story video several times.
41:05 Destiny comes, But to explain that, we need to talk about P A R A L L E L U N I V E R S E S
This as such a well put together video. I finally finished the game, and while I understand some people have problems with the ending, let's just see where it goes. I have to say, my favorite part of the game is Chapter 8 when you meet up with Aerith again, walking on top of the building. So much great character development! Thanks again!
It seems clear to me that your playthrough had you playing favorites with Tifa! As the scene in chapter 14 can be different depending on story choices. Also affects the order that they join in the final battle!
8:39 Cloud tells Johny to get out of town and stay safe. Captions: “You want to live, get the hell out of this town.”
Thank you so much for the work you did here. Straight to the point, a recap with all the important story beats and none of the excessive cutscenes. Should be mandatory to watch this before diving into Rebirth. Fantastic job!
You got the Tifa scene :) ! I had Aerith's Scene (Dream sequence) before they left to rescue her! Thanks for the vid!!
That was great. I had so many flashbacks to the original. They sure did this game justice. You created a awesome vid.
Played the game straight 30 hrs no sleep hahah. Replaying to get platinum trophy now. Can’t wait what happens next. I think they want to change up the story a bit to shock us in a different way in the next game. Nothing wrong with the original but it won’t feel the same knowing what already happened. But who knows if they actually will change it up or keep it similar. Ending wasn’t the best execution though. I take the game for what it is. Loved getting all the characters more fleshed out and exploring midgar. Also for people who have not played the game, try it for yourself. Everyone have their own opinions.
I am replaying Remake and discovered your video so my bf can understand the plot while I play. We now have watched several of your videos an can I say thank you for keeping to the point, discussing the plots as a whole in order, and being very thorough without side tracking. Love the videos. Keep it up.
