Damn this video just got like 600-900+ views out of the blue, days later, so thanks anyone that stops by and gives even a few mins of your time to my new channel and video, appreciate the interest! ❤
I just think people are too scared of change, and seeing their fav characters or world being changed into something else. I personally don’t have issues with the unknown, it makes it exciting to be a FF7 again myself! The discussions the community has had over the years about remake and rebirth and will continue too makes me super excited
As much as I don’t wanna spoil more for myself, I can’t wait for the combat demo portion to come out, as long as it’s the pre release stuff we’ve already seen from creators a while ago. I just need more!!! 😂 Stand strong brother!!
Yeah tbh cause you haven't played the OG, a lot of the locations, music and character moments definitely wouldn't have the same punch so it's much easier to skip the demo and just wait a few weeks and enjoy it all.
Bro I'm so sorry lol normally I don't care about spoilers, and I really want to watch this video... But I don't have a day off until Saturday and I really need to experience this organically 😅 final fantasy VII was the first real narrative storyline game that I played as a child.
Organically is the best way to experience this, then you’re not left like me with part of Chapter 1 complete and left hungry for more for several week dying on the inside 😂 just make sure to stay off net closer to launch for spoilers!
I love the game so far I love the gameplay so far I'm still seriously in love with this game but I'm sorry that demo was so underwhelming it makes me worry
Oh, interesting! I like hearing different opinions on things I love, was there something you didn’t vibe with or just didn’t care for the Nibelheim section specifically ?
@@MyLivingLegacy well if you must know I have no problem explaining it to you. For one this is a demo that RUclips reviewers got to play well over a year ago... but the thing is it's not even the same demo that they got to play. The demo that we got to play is a demo that is over a year old that was spliced and not touched up in any way shape or form. The first part of the demo if you play it through you do not have to do that portion again and thank fucking God because that crawling shit is just way too slow as well as that valve turning they need to increase the speed of that. The other half of the demo which will be coming out awkwardly a week before the main game is coming out is where the splicing actually came in because we're only getting a dumbed-down smaller portion of this section which you do have to replay over again... though playing it may give you an extra Boehner to it still seems kind of pointless... I mean the actual game itself is being released less than a week after. There were issues with this demo both in graphic and performance modes. There's something wrong with the blur or the motion blur I'm not quite sure where I can place it but there's definitely blur and issues. By default right out of the box camera panning is way too sensitive That new button that they gave you that supposed to double as both a jump command and a roll command is buggy and works when it wants to they should just give us a button for both or bring it back to remake where we didn't have any kind of a jump or roll button except for during battle when you were dodging There's a huge glitch in the demo which can prevent you from going forward because sephiroth literally gets stuck on a roof and can't get off and starts running back and forth like he's doing rooftop exercises Though the Synergy has improved from remake I believe aerial combat has taken a backwards turn and I hope that that doesn't disrupt Yuffie's aerial combat style of gameplay because they wanted to add Synergy to every character instead of just hers None like I said there are other numerous bugs glitches and other graphical performances across the board. I know they're trying to broaden Sephiroths story.... but this demo seems to be really changing his personality and making him a little bit more of a pussy like Cloud unless of a hard ass like he used to be. And I may be the only one that thinks this but even in graphics mode it seems as if the graphics of the game have also slightly down themselves compared to its predecessor. They also made all kinds of hype around this demo.... and you could literally complete it from start to finish in an hour. Final Fantasy 16 wasn't even made by the regular Final Fantasy people it was made by the Devil May Cry guy.... and his trailer for Final Fantasy 16 Blows the trailer for Final Fantasy VII rebirth out of the water and he's not even part of the Final Fantasy crew.. and his demo was longer included more in it and had less issues right out of the box. Final Fantasy strangers of paradise which isn't everybody's favorite game how to much better demo than what this had to offer. To me it seemed like such a underwhelming demo that I don't understand why they even bothered to release it. Literally everything that they showed us in that demo that we were able to play through could have easily been shown to us in a new trailer or during one of PlayStation state of play events... and you know I'm not wrong. Even if they took that hour and a half or whatever it was and knocked it down into just a half hour segment or less of just showing you him running around doing that different shit and being able to play as Sephiroth would have been enough. The demo really didn't need to be released... especially with the game so close around the corner.... If they had released this months ago to the General Public perhaps some of my views and opinions would be different. But honestly I really see no reasoning to it nor did I really even appreciate it and I love this game I love this series I have already well purchased the digital deluxe version but I did that based on my gameplay of remake not of the demo of rebirth.
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to write out so much Demos are vertical slices, usually it's not a 1-1 take from the main game, sometimes it is. In this case I think it mostly is, just like the 16 demo you mentioned later on. That being said, it's just a demo tho. especially if it's older or people got to play it before, it's still not the final product, and while I will agree it's always in their best interest to show to consumers the best of their ability the game in it's most complete form, things like bugs, glitches, random movement issues, is just not the full product, and I kinda don't expect them to go back and QA a demo of all things when the can use that time on the main game, not excusing if the demo doesn't run 100%, or has issues, but it's also just a sample of a 50-100hr open world RPG. Demos are meant to be very short experiences usually. I made a video on demos I played last year actually, cause I played a LOT more than usual, some very very short under an hour, some few several hours long, each is different length and scope. FF7 has a very spoilery narrative dating back 25 years, maybe they should have just released the Junon part of the demo instead, where it's just some exploration, combat, side quests etc that would have worked better, but, Nibelheim is such spoilery content, that anything more than an hour or so would take away from the final game. The comparison to 16's demo isn't quite the same either, altho that demo was incredible, mostly because the start of the game up until the Phoenix fight works so WELL for a demo as we know nothing about the world or where it's going, also I will agree it looked better and played a bit better too. Different teams tho, different games and completely different scopes. 7R is more a proper open world, with traveral, far far more in depth combat systems and customization, more characters and full parties, where 16 is an action game, with barely any RPG elements, and solo play with Torgual, in smaller zones, with no exploration. Both heavily different FF games As for wanting it to all be shown in a new trailer or state of play, people like me haven't watched the latest ones and are steering clear because they contain major spoilers, not all people will watch more at this stage, so I think it was fine to release this, it would have been a lot better to release the combat section same time, like in ff16, there was two parts, just so people can see a small section of story, then a small section of open world, to make better choices on wether they like it or not. As for you pre ordering games, considering how sceptical you are idk fam, I would have waited for reviews and stuff to come out if you weren't sure, altho you said you loved remake so surely you'll not regret Rebirth. Always remember to vote with your wallet if you don't like things, or wait for sales. I guess my last point is, like in my previous video on I am Setsuna, I criticised the game very heavily on it's core mechanics, to the point where it sounds like I hated my time with it, but the thing is, lifes too short to get bent up about the negatives, and I found the fun in the game and it's platinum trophy. Weather Rebirth falls short in some areas or not, I will just delight in the positives and the fact that after 25 years, I can see Cloud, Tifa and co voices and acted out like this, is a dream for me. Remake isn't my top FF game, it has issues, but the fact is exists alone is enough to make me happy lol Cheers!
Demo was OK. The most important story parts were flat af. The limping part? The crawling? The guys with guns just sitting there... His terrible monotone voice of sephiroth? Oh well
Well, each to their own I guess, would you still be picking up the game based on this or? I found it fantastic, seeing it all finally fleshed out like this after 25 years to me was incredible. I think the crawling and limping is purely for set dressing, so you can really watch slowly as the people around you run and remark what's happening better than rushing straight through to Clouds house. I will give you that the Mayor and guys standing there waiting to be cut down with ... guns, in their hands, and not shooting 😂 was kinda dumb, if they had shot and he deflected bullets or something, would have made him more imposing at least. Took me ages to get used to Sephiroths VA from Remake, I think it's fine now, it's not the OG from Advent Children etc but it works well enough, might be the only other casting choice outside Zacks that was an instant, oh this is noticeably different.
it was good, but let see if they give us a disney version story of final fantasy *cough cough* talking to you nomura and kitase they better not change the story i wont buy this garbage
Really depends on how much a purist you are I suppose. The OG game has been there for 25 years so, for people that don’t vibe with a new retelling of the story nothings changed. If you played remake, you already know it’s gonna get really wild at some points with it’s changes 😂(whispers for one etc)
@@MyLivingLegacy yea im just bothered and the fact kitase straight up lied about this project. before the remake he said "no major changes, and its the same story"
@@gamerd8709 Can't say I remember that myself, altho I've stopping looking at interviews and stuff before launch for both games. I will say, I remember somewhere they said that in terms of characters, moments, locations and set pieces, this is what they've always wanted to do but never had the tech for it. I know they'll always be a crowd that doesn't want change and just wanted a straight remake of the OG, but if that's what this remake, rebirth and third game was, we'd know everything that happens, cuts some of the fun and mystery and conversation out of the titles. At least know you can watch other peoples thoughts, look up spoilers when the game launches if you're so inclined, watch play throughs and see if it's fun for you or not and decided from there. I never take what the devs say at face value sometimes cause things change so often in development over the last decade off these two games, who knows what the first draft might have been, maybe it was just a simple retelling lol still would have sold well for sure
Not even 5 minutes in and the simp mode was turned on🤣🙈 Gets handed game excellence……Xeno: what if I make life even more complicated…….*deletes game*🤣💀 Xeno: it’s all about the game not the money this video makes…….plays copyrighted music also Xeno: why am I so poor😭🙈
My channel will never make money so it doesn't matter but I would still like to avoid as many strikes as I can, the first video had a copyright strike. Luckily this one didn't, maybe cause I talked over it lol and it wouldn't be me if I didn't make it harder on myself 😂
Damn this video just got like 600-900+ views out of the blue, days later, so thanks anyone that stops by and gives even a few mins of your time to my new channel and video, appreciate the interest! ❤
Ok Mr RUclips algorithm man please stop recommending this one single video only you’re going to give out false expectations on what this channel is 😂
Wow, like, this game, if it holds ups from what I've seen and now played, it's going to be one HELL of a ride, I cannot wait
It’s so good I’m glad they are doing everything so well. I get a kick out of the few people who are mad about the story changes lol
I just think people are too scared of change, and seeing their fav characters or world being changed into something else. I personally don’t have issues with the unknown, it makes it exciting to be a FF7 again myself! The discussions the community has had over the years about remake and rebirth and will continue too makes me super excited
I’m so hyped for this game! The demo was amazing. 2 more weeks my brothers 😅
As much as I don’t wanna spoil more for myself, I can’t wait for the combat demo portion to come out, as long as it’s the pre release stuff we’ve already seen from creators a while ago. I just need more!!! 😂
Stand strong brother!!
Yeah, cant wait to play the game when it comes out. Haven't touched the demo though
Yeah tbh cause you haven't played the OG, a lot of the locations, music and character moments definitely wouldn't have the same punch so it's much easier to skip the demo and just wait a few weeks and enjoy it all.
Bro I'm so sorry lol normally I don't care about spoilers, and I really want to watch this video... But I don't have a day off until Saturday and I really need to experience this organically 😅 final fantasy VII was the first real narrative storyline game that I played as a child.
Organically is the best way to experience this, then you’re not left like me with part of Chapter 1 complete and left hungry for more for several week dying on the inside 😂 just make sure to stay off net closer to launch for spoilers!
they did say when the demo update hits it's the 21st
ah did they? That's awesome thanks for that, I must have missed it

That new button that they gave you that supposed to double as both a jump command and a roll command is buggy and works when it wants to they should just give us a button for both or bring it back to remake where we didn't have any kind of a jump or roll button except for during battle when you were dodging
There's a huge glitch in the demo which can prevent you from going forward because sephiroth literally gets stuck on a roof and can't get off and starts running back and forth like he's doing rooftop exercises
Though the Synergy has improved from remake I believe aerial combat has taken a backwards turn and I hope that that doesn't disrupt Yuffie's aerial combat style of gameplay because they wanted to add Synergy to every character instead of just hers
None like I said there are other numerous bugs glitches and other graphical performances across the board.

Thanks, big love, here's some little love back 🥰
Seems good, maybe i'll play the Game next year on pc if i remember this exist😂
