I will be covering ALL stories of FF7 Ever Crisis! Story chapters are at the top of my playlist, check it out here! ruclips.net/p/PLJ9wktLbh3WlURVI_qh5Z519e-rTUNERN&si=GgjcjAci24I1kxil
This shows off an interesting dynamic to cloud here with his new self and old self battling each other He says that he thought he would be happier seeing Tifa again but he didn’t feel like himself. This is because his identity was merged with Zack’s based off his stories both about SOLDIER and Aerith Both Zack and Cloud felt guilt that Tifa got so badly injured at the reactor so that guilt towards her wouldn’t had change. It’s also interesting to note that the exterior cloud is being cold and standoffish to Tifa but the ‘real’ Cloud in his head is telling him to be kind and helpful to her
Tifa was always Cloud's anchor to his true self. Even though Cloud woke from his severe mako poisoning following Zack's death, his mind was completely in pieces. The moment he laid eyes on Tifa, he was able to pull himself somewhat together. The problem was that the persona he built was based on his desire to be a 1st Class SOLDIER, which he boasted he would be to Tifa, and why he hid his face at Nibleheim. The Jenova cells worked its magic to create that persona for Cloud.
I think the persona was also based somewhat on tifa’s memories of Cloud as an aloof loner kid. I believe in one of the ultimanias it says that the reason cloud was able to “wake up” here was because the Jenova cells in him actually looked at tifa’s memories of him and pulled on those. So tifa was doubly necessary to him waking up.
Cloud’s definitely never had a drink before that scene that plays out later in the main game. I bet he heard about the drink he told Tifa about from older coworkers when he worked for shinra but still didn’t fully understand what they were talking about lol
ya cloud is just a big ol fake. liar. cheater... sad really. but at least he comes through in the end. only cuz again he cheated and had mako cells. to 1v1 seph.
@@amylie7879 lol sorry i just went on some random rant about cloud. cuz he wasnt a real SOLDIER and only became one cuz of hojo mako experiments n all that... ya like u said he probably heard of it from other soldiers he was around as just a another fodder level. cute scenes here tho with tifa. 😊
@@ssppeeaarr Cloud has that countryboy strength like Tifa lmao. Dude got shanked right through and still had enough strength to lift up a whole man and chuck him. Who cares if he wasn't a soldier
@@darknessknows1235 ya it was plot armor. well its not like sephiroth is a bulky buff guy either. anger boost usually lends a hand in those situations. kinda like the hulk or super saiyan but not as epic. 😆 well it kinda is important tho when it was clouds own childhood dream to be a soldier on the same level as seph. lol nice fantasy tho. he kinda did get his wish by cheating tho. kind of just sad tho zack who was a true soldier and earned his rank... perished. but hopefully the remake games wlll give the lad proper happy fate. sephiroth as well who also never wanted to be soldier or hero but just wanted a normal life.
ya idk why this couldnt be out in the og ps1... aint like space was a issue since cd hype was what square was about at that time. betraying nintendo. lol.
Tifa: Cloud, could you help me carry these boxes for me? Cloud: Of course I can!! You don't have to ask, I was a SOLIDER, I can carry anything!! Tifa: Cool! Instead of one box, I'll get seven! Cloud: Wait what Always love it when Cloud ends up doing ridiculous things simply because his first name is "Cloud Strife" and last name is "ex-SOLDIER". Though I wished they'd added a little animation with Cloud dragging all those boxes T-T
Oh man that snap of Zack 😭. That dude helps even in death. And Tifa is sly as a fox getting Cloud to help her. Remake makes it less in your face, but she saw an opportunity and took it, she's a go getter!
@@unskillfullymasterful ya should been her who got unalived by seph... lol oh well. wish remake was in this chibi style tho. its what most of us really wanted.
@@likeicareusewe idk man underestimate the power of the cetra!! she was the sole factor in their world to keep on going by eating meteor with her prayers... aside from all the sephiroth drama lol.
@@ssppeeaarr Yes, but that was after she died and found out how to do this stuff. Before she died, Aerith didn't understand most of her heritage as she herself admits.
as for Jenova, don't think so. In crisis core upon arriving at the mako reactor in Nibelheim, it's an order from Sephiroth to "keep the young lady safe" in reference to Tifa. (she wanted to go in the reactor but it's not allowed) if i recall correctly. Probably a memory of sorts getting mixed in.. like the memories of Zack talking about being a merc in the back of the truck.
I feel like it's meant to be inner kid Cloud, the same one we see at the end of Temple of the Ancients and that Tifa talks to in the Lifestream. The whole Cloud side-story felt like it was being told from Cloud's POV during the latter, honestly.
@@itscloudstrifeAh! That’s actually interesting and makes sense, since Sephiroth would want Cloud to get closer to Shinra to enact his long-term plans! 😲 Plus, he did tell Cloud that during the Nibelhiem incident, outside the reactor!
In JP, it actually says, "protect Tifa". But the wording is similar to Sephiroth's words to him, "protect the young lady". I guess it's his memory of that time. Cloud repeated Sephiroth's command in his head, but changed the "young lady" with "Tifa".
Woa, the “Take care of the lady” line gave me chill. That is possible Jenova/ Sephiroth speaking to Cloud. Maybe they needed to access the Jenova body in the Shinra building and a group of anti Shinra with the help of a super soldier with Jenova cell can just do that.
Wrong!! That is the real cloud!! All the internal monolog is his real self!. This is the first time he has had actual conversations with tifa He has been shy around her all his life!
I've been waiting YEARS for Square to delve into this bit of the FF7 story and they did it in a gacha game? Better than nothing I guess and it at least confirms all the theories/guesses. Thank you muchly FazFaz for suffering the grind and uploading.
Wait a minute, Tifa doesn’t know about salty cocktails here, the day before the bombing mission. But in Rebirth, it was shown that Wedge showed her the trick and it became her signature drink: the Cosmo Canyon. Because it was a well known drink, to the point of being famous outside of Midgar, Tifa must have known about it before this point, because she mixes the drink for Cloud the day after, and day after that Sector 7 collapsed. Is this another timeline?
This what happened to Cloud was all on HOJO!!! Cloud not remembering who he is thanks to being sealed in a Mako pod for 4 years which caused the Mako poisoning in his brain and his vegetable state until he saw Tifa and the Jenova cells inside him sorta read her mind and created Cloud's fake Ex-SOLDIER persona which is rude and closed off.
The remake was a let down for me, never again let the mf who wrote and made kingdom hearts write anything for FF7 ever again, ever crisis was the only thing that I actually enjoyed, apart from that? Yeah no, not interested.
@@jamelgallagher6602Tetsuya Nomura being a writer, same dude who made the confusing mind-fuck of a series called Kingdom hearts, and the game not staying true to the original story what-so ever.
@@V3sricty did you even play the game? The game is relatively the same. All the events that happened in the og happened in the remake and rebirth. The only thing they did was add twist and expanded on certain things to make it feel refreshing and new. Having a shot for shot remake would be dull as hell.

the salt is salty, Tifa.
Cloud's entire story was about Tifa hehe as expected. I love this so much.

@@ssppeeaarr dude, what.
@@amylie7879 lol sorry i just went on some random rant about cloud. cuz he wasnt a real SOLDIER and only became one cuz of hojo mako experiments n all that...
ya like u said he probably heard of it from other soldiers he was around as just a another fodder level.
cute scenes here tho with tifa. 😊

So this is what happen after the "Death of Zack" outside of Midgar.
ya idk why this couldnt be out in the og ps1...
aint like space was a issue since cd hype was what square was about at that time.
betraying nintendo. lol.
It was!!!! Just not the bar part!
@@ssppeeaarr It was. We see how Tifa met Cloud in FF7. Then she explains the rest.
@@ssppeeaarr it was partially. But u gotta remember a lot of story and lore aspects weren't as solidified as they are today
Tifa: Cloud, could you help me carry these boxes for me?
Cloud: Of course I can!! You don't have to ask, I was a SOLIDER, I can carry anything!!
Tifa: Cool! Instead of one box, I'll get seven!
Cloud: Wait what
Always love it when Cloud ends up doing ridiculous things simply because his first name is "Cloud Strife" and last name is "ex-SOLDIER". Though I wished they'd added a little animation with Cloud dragging all those boxes T-T
Awwwwww Cloud & Tifa are just so ❤❤❤
Oh man that snap of Zack 😭. That dude helps even in death. And Tifa is sly as a fox getting Cloud to help her. Remake makes it less in your face, but she saw an opportunity and took it, she's a go getter!
lmao . . she is woman . she knows how to get the guy to do work ;) even her animations are cute in the crappy chibi form
@@unskillfullymasterful ya should been her who got unalived by seph...
lol oh well.
wish remake was in this chibi style tho. its what most of us really wanted.
@@ssppeeaarrwait...what did u just say
@@Queenskii004 😯😞
Really appreciate you uploading all these!
thank you for the nice comment! I plan on covering ALL story of Ever Crisis! until EoS!
Seeing his best friend get gunned down right in front of him really affected Cloud mentally.
The music in this is so damn good.
I never played the original, but Cloud in Ever Crisis is more expressive and less cold and selfish compare to the Remake.
So you dont know why he had those "headaches"? That's the reason why he's less cold here, he's struggling with his own personality
@@BigRoviaAKA Cloud making an identity for himself based on Zack’s memories and what he thinks a First-Class SOLDIER should act.
never played the og ps1 ff7...idk wrong with u 😞
lol but ya this chibi style is what remake and rebirth should have done.
Yeah, this is how Cloud acts in the original game. Remake and Rebirth he acts way more awkward.
Without Zack dying, Cloud never would have woken from the Coma. Without Tifa, he wasn't going to wake from his delirious state.
im sure aerith would have found him n helped him...
she was wandering around out there n her cetra nature.
@@ssppeeaarr No, Aerith wouldn't have been able to wake him up. He'd be in "ugh agh" mode forever.
@@likeicareusewe idk man underestimate the power of the cetra!!
she was the sole factor in their world to keep on going by eating meteor with her prayers...
aside from all the sephiroth drama lol.
@@ssppeeaarr Yes, but that was after she died and found out how to do this stuff. Before she died, Aerith didn't understand most of her heritage as she herself admits.
Tifa: “can I get you anything?”
Cloud: “I want…money.”
So, was that JENOVA saying “Take care of the lady”, or Zack? Because calling Tifa “lady” sounds too impersonal for Cloud’s inner thoughts.
as for Jenova, don't think so. In crisis core upon arriving at the mako reactor in Nibelheim, it's an order from Sephiroth to "keep the young lady safe" in reference to Tifa. (she wanted to go in the reactor but it's not allowed) if i recall correctly. Probably a memory of sorts getting mixed in.. like the memories of Zack talking about being a merc in the back of the truck.

I guess it's his memory of that time. Cloud repeated Sephiroth's command in his head, but changed the "young lady" with "Tifa".
I would have thought it’s Zack
Tells all he know everything that the samurai angel help him and his friends.
Also the advent children is their social experiment.
Know why Cloud keeps using the Buster Sword? Cuz his mind is busted
Woa, the “Take care of the lady” line gave me chill. That is possible Jenova/ Sephiroth speaking to Cloud. Maybe they needed to access the Jenova body in the Shinra building and a group of anti Shinra with the help of a super soldier with Jenova cell can just do that.
It could also be the real Cloud talking to himself like the beginning part of the OG does.
Wrong!! That is the real cloud!! All the internal monolog is his real self!. This is the first time he has had actual conversations with tifa
He has been shy around her all his life!
I've been waiting YEARS for Square to delve into this bit of the FF7 story and they did it in a gacha game? Better than nothing I guess and it at least confirms all the theories/guesses. Thank you muchly FazFaz for suffering the grind and uploading.
i love this game!!
what a sad story about cloud´s past,
Cloti❤
Wait a minute, Tifa doesn’t know about salty cocktails here, the day before the bombing mission.

Is this another timeline?
I think this is going over the OG timeline. Hence why the payment in this one goes as 1,000-1,500 gil instead of what the Remake had, which was 2,000.
ya its cuz remake aint the og ff7. its its own alternate timeline mess thing...
This what happened to Cloud was all on HOJO!!! Cloud not remembering who he is thanks to being sealed in a Mako pod for 4 years which caused the Mako poisoning in his brain and his vegetable state until he saw Tifa and the Jenova cells inside him sorta read her mind and created Cloud's fake Ex-SOLDIER persona which is rude and closed off.
I love that Cloud Always plays hero in front of tifa no Matter how clueless he is right at the moment
How come they didn’t put this at the start of the ffvii remake?
Because Cloud don't remember it that much. It will be played in part 3 don't worry.
'7Boxes'
Who told him “Help the lady”?
Sephiroth
His true self!
Clouds' true self is in love with tifa!
When do these character quests become available?
Best Couples ever
The remake was a let down for me, never again let the mf who wrote and made kingdom hearts write anything for FF7 ever again, ever crisis was the only thing that I actually enjoyed, apart from that? Yeah no, not interested.
Why was it a let down?
@@jamelgallagher6602Tetsuya Nomura being a writer, same dude who made the confusing mind-fuck of a series called Kingdom hearts, and the game not staying true to the original story what-so ever.

@@V3sricty Nomura isn't the writer for the remake series,he's one of the directors, Kazushige Nojima is the actual writer
@@V3sricty Get this through your head. Nomura didn't write the story. You people need to stop blaming Nomura for everything.
After Criss, Crisis Core, Ever Crisis, man Squeenix really ARE getting sh!t at writing nowadays, even their subtitles f*cking suck.
