If you guys take it as a sex joke, you’re gross. But... actually I’m pretty weird too, so eh.
They had to give Barret sunglasses so we wouldn't get lost in his eyes for the whole game.
I loved how they changed his in-menu image based on whether he lost his sunglasses or not
gosh right !! they made his eyes soooo beautifuuul !
He and Rude have subscriptions to "Sunglasses delivered in less then an hour"
@@michaelwilson5114 Rude just make glasses appear out of thin air.
How about Sephiroth's kissy lips, very distracting.
Best line in the game:
*"Nailed it. I know. Thank you. Moving on."*
I legit had to pause the game because I could not stop laughing for like 5 minutes the first time.
I need a timestamp pls.
I honestly wasn't expecting Cloud to say that. I had to go back and watch that Cutscene. It wasn't as funny as I thought but still good.
1:45:10
You're welcome XD
That's one trophy I am not proud of getting 😂
Can we talk about how sad that Soldier grunt must be? He finds out an old training buddy is alive after five years, gets legitimately excited and rushes to go get Kunsel for a reunion. Only to come back and Cloud is just gone.
Seeing Cloud must also be a sign that Zack is alive, which is all the more sadder.
Seeing as how Kunsel was worried about him and said that even though he's a fugitive, he'll still have his back. And Zack has been training SOLDIERs and Infantrymen too.
@@boxtupos7718 if Zack hadn't died, Cloud wouldn't do what he's doing and being as messed up in the head as he is in the remake. What we saw at the end of the game with Zack was probably an alternate timeline
@@Edward-W It's what would happen if Kunsel rushed in to try and meet Cloud. He'd probably has his hopes up that one of his buddy who's presumed dead is alive.
Not to mention I actually think Zack shouldn't survive, as if he did he'd become the main character.
@@Edward-W It is, Stamp is a different breed of dog on that flyer that whips past Zack's feet in the first scene he's in. I think what this is implying is that Aerith has created a separate timeline where Zack might win, in case Cloud and the gang don't.
@@boxtupos7718 Well I mean if Zack survived.....shouldn't there be some sort switch? Like Cloud should take his place then? That would be terrible but.....
22:00
The fact that Cloud actually got his big ass sword caught in the doorway-
And yet he can cut through buildings and debris made out of stronger material XD he can jump high but he has to use ladders five feet high
The comedy
@@Zephyr_Weiss well wasn't able to build enough momentum
"Holy sh*t is that realism?"
Pretty sure stuff they do in the singularity is beyond what they're strong enough to accomplish yet in normal time-space. Cloud was shown to be capable of some superhuman jumps and stuff during the normal course of the game, but those instances were far more grounded and possible seeming in every scene before they entered that crazy distortion wall bubble thingy. Might become literally part of the battle system by the final part of the Remake, though.
Fun fact, in the Ultimania for this, Nomura states that the reason why Cloud is so aloof and "cool" and then dorky/rash the next minute is because his memories were lost. To him, he's got the mentality of a teenager, in an adult's body. And he's trying to compensate and act older than he (mentally) is. Which makes SO much more sense.
It always used to anger me when people said Cloud was too "broody" and "angsty" and I could never fully make them understand why.
That actually makes sense
Let’s see what happens next...
Oh my god.
That's so awesome
while i do agree it explains a lot, it also opens a few new cans considering we're then exposing essentially a teenager to a lot of violence and sexual situations, in addition to have a lot of older people making advances towards him, as tifa, aerith and jessie are all grown women. which makes it less cute imo.
@@SuperEkkorn not really. He is an adult. He just lost his memories. But no one else knows that (except for Tifa when she jumps in the Mako and pieces his memories back together).
Also, nothing physically ever happens and Aerith mainly does it to tease him. And by the time Tifa and Cloud Do get together, he has his memories back.
@@SuperEkkorn also, he knows that he is in his 20s and that his memories were lost (hence the trying to act older). So, he's not really a 15yo. It's more that those are the last memories he has.
Never mind the rest of the game, the "everyone inspects Wedge's ass" scene alone is worth $60
So is the honeybee inn lol
@@harrysgirl101 MILADY CLOUD
*ASS SMACK*
Miss D Honeybee Inn is worth more than 60 dollars hold up
Sorry about your ass.
Cloud: “I don’t dance.”
Nomura: “ *OH YES YOU WILL.* “
holitinne 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Nomura did not have anything to do with Cloud's cross dressing. This was in the original game. why do fans troll Nomura so much? My heavens! I hope the Japanese fans aren't as bad as U.S.A. fans. Maybe then, the story will be allowed to be told without fans overreacting because of certain creative team members.
Correction, Cloud. You may have said you don’t dance, but you never said you COULDN’T.
World of Final Fantasy: Yes you will.
Corneo: Oh Princess cloud
Cloud: Please no....
Corneo: you lied to me...
Cloud: I did no such thing
Corneo: you do dance dirty boy
Cloud: Tifa get me out out of here im serious somersualt me outta here
Aerith: "The slums is my home" *proceeds to go to her home thats a mansion with an oasis.
Me: " yeah...ok...."
It has a waterfall!
@@andie3071 and pond of clean water.
Her and her mom literally live in Kiki Delivery’s Service house and kept acting like they were living like everyone at the slums PLEASE

Tifa: They have a fucking waterfall!
@@andie3071 exactly

Whispers be like "This is a remastering of FF7, let's keep it that way."
Sephiroth be like "Yeah, but I've played FF7, and I die at the end. So... no."
The team be like "Can we just be happy?"
🤣👌
Sephiroth and the Whispers: “No.”
Shenpai be like “Eveyone is so Hot aaaaaaaaaa”
@@noahplatt3705 ah so Jessie then
Oh wait no shes dead
Noah Platt except hojo
Also... It's technically about Sephiroth's attempt to "Remake" the timeline. After he was defeated in AC, he stated "I will never be a memory." And it's likely that he some how found a way to send his memories back through time in the Lifestream, to the version of himself that had just fallen in, so that he could change the events so he would have a chance at being victorious.
The Arbiters of Fate are like the "Weapons" except instead of protecting the planet, they protect the flow of time from being meddled with.
Also... I believe Aerith was aware of Sephiroth's plan and sent herself a warning... Remember, she can see events currently happening and ones that previously happened through the Lifestream. And not only did she know Barret's name when Marlene mentioned her daddy(even though Cloud and Tifa didn't mention him.), but she also warned Cloud not to fall in love with her, knew the plate falling was unavoidable, and warned Cloud that if they tried to defy fate, thete would be no going back.
So, Technically this is a sequel, Aerith and Sephiroth are time travelers, and Biggs is young Charlie Sheen. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
This is no sequel, this is a requel baby
Aerith doesn't need to have time traveled at all. The planet detected this new Sephiroth and so created the arbiters to stop fate being messed with. Aerith communicates with the planet, so she was essentially told what was happening. No time travel needed.
@@garywood97 True. But rather then simply knowing there's a threat from the future, she seems to know just about everything. Future events, the people she hasn't met yet, and her own fate. Which leads me to believe that when Sephiroth went back, the Aerith that was in the Lifestream could've fallowed and met up with the version of her still in Midgar.
This isn't a sequel. English dub added pretty much EVERY LINE people use to justify that, Aerith calling Cloud a merc, her saying how "everything about Sephiroth is wrong." (Originally she said Sephiroth is mistaken.) And her "This isn't how it's supposed to be." those are all only in the english dub. Sephiroth doesn't know everything either.
@@MrSuperbeast92 I still assume she just learned that from the planet. If the arbiters are trying to stop fate being changed, it seems plausible that she might have being able to ask what that fate was.
The idea of Sephiroth struggling on the toilet, crying out for Reunion, is amazing to me
You've cursed me with this scene in my head you monster
"So what brought you into therapy today?"
Well you see it all started with a RUclips comment I saw lol
is there a time mark that corresponds to this comment?
@Mike Jones 21:50
SephirothJ: This one is not working...
J:Other vessels are available...
SephirothJ: Next!
Whispers: No, you can’t just change the timeline like that!
Sephiroth: haha, timeline go *sound of swervy curving*
It's my understanding that time makes a "wibbly-wobbly" sound.
BJGvideos doctor who reference?
@@bored9365 Totally. Either that or it sounds like Dialga from Pokémon.
"Haha, timeline go-" *Bite Za Dusto noises intensify*
It sounds like a slide whistle
I dunno why but there's this weird psychosexual tension when Sephiroth is around. His voice is low and smooth and they keep zooming on his lips.
It also doesn't help that everyone is thirsty for Cloud the whole game.
Can we just talk about how that absolutely *amazing* remix of Tifa's Theme when Aerith and Tifa kick the absolute bejesus out of Corneo's goons is just *chef's kiss*
Robert Dawson you’ll love the title of it more. Smash ‘em, Rip ‘em. Lol I’m not even kidding
Robert Dawson that remix of tifa’s theme is sick man.
Cloud's cross dressing scene was hilarious. "Nailed it, I know, thanks, moving on."
Edit: the more side quests you do, the more beautiful the dress. Literal fireworks.
Thank you everyone for correcting me 😀
The dress is based on how many side quests you have done, nothing else.
@@tatri292 it's based more on what side quests you did, and those are dictated by which massage you get
the 2000 has one dress, the others a second, and if you dont do the sidequest, there's a third
@@alphaarcher4723 "Literal fireworks" I think they meant Aerith's dress, which is based on how many sidequests you did in chapter 8.
@@tatri292 I just latched on to the massage gil. That dictates, indirectly, which dress cloud gets
@@alphaarcher4723
Paying for the full price on the hand massage starts the quest chain to get the big frilly princess dress.
Doing Sam's quests instead gets you the big busty dress seen in the trailer.
Doing neither will get you Cloud's original FF7 dress.
1:38:28 for the honeybee inn scene
Thank you, my good sir

MILADY CLOUD
My hero
Best change in the entire game... Shame we don't have the muscles in the hot tub. But what they replace is a good trade.
Whenever Zack appeared and Buns exclaimed "Why!?"
All I could hear was the Crisis Core ending song
You're gonna make me cry again 😢
Spoilers for those who haven't played or watched:
Showing Zack in the end is supposed to be confusing for everyone involved. Those who have played the game will be confused on why the scene is different (notice that he wasn't gunned down like he should've been) and those who haven't will be left wondering who this person is, why he is with Cloud, and why he has the Buster Sword. It's a big mystery for both sides, compelling both sides to stay tuned for the next game.
I never played Crisis Core but as far as I can understand, the Zack scene happens alongside the final battle and although they happen canonically at different points in time they're linked by the presence of the Whispers. Once the party defeats the Whispers, their presence in all points of time is wiped out, so at the point where Zack is supposed to die, they aren't there to ensure it happens so he lives.
As far as I could see it, this could either create a number of different FF7 universes with differing events in each, OR, a ripple effect in the current FF7 timeline that changes events both from the past, and going forward. Either way, can't wait to see.
@@cwkrysta1338 Nice to see some positive outlook for the next game instead of "GRRRRR they changed the game! REEEEEEE!"
@@michaelwilson5114 i never played it as a kid aha, so I'm fully on board with playing a different story. I just love the world of the original and I'm excited to see it fleshed out.
Well another thing to point out is that the Zack scene is actually happening in an alternate timeline/ universe because the chip bag that had Stamp on it is different from the Stamp we see throughout the game
@@DigitalXkNIGHT could also be possible that the design changed within the current timeline couldn't it?
My favorite part of this game is that it proves that Zack thrashing an entire SOLDIER battalion MUST be canon.
BetaBran well he is first class and a badass

"One date"
How did it take me this long to realise she was repeating Zacks words to Cloud T.T
You know.... Same..
I'd love to see Zack's date with Cloud.
She said that in the original FFVII which was way before Crisis Core. So Zack was copying off of Aerith technically.
milkyway No? Crisis Core story is before the Original in the FF7 timeline, so it's Aerith copying Zack phrase. Have you played CC to be saying that? Lol
@@Miollinn LOL considering FF7 came out BEFORE CC, that line was used by Zack in CC as a form of fan service. XD
"I love Jessie, hope they don't kill her."
Oh dear God......
to make things worse, she was the only one out of the three that died
@@pavlox8099 Is it confirmed that Wedge didn't die? I thought it was implied that he fell off the tower.
@@ethanhartman5908 oh yeah forgot about that, my boi deserved better though
@@pavlox8099 For sure. It sucked having to essentially experience his death twice.
Wedge is at 63rd floor when the whisperers pulled him
honestly, you'd think Kingdom Hearts would wake everyone up to the fact that Tetsuya Nomura is the biggest wildcard director working in ANY industry right now, and that trying to predict him is like trying to scoop water with a sieve. good luck doing it, fam.
I honestly kindof like the fact that he's unpredictable and Square Enix somehow just lets him have his fun and go nuts. His brand of nonsense is right up my alley just because somehow the higher ups don't stop him.
I mean max s getting close. m.ruclips.net/video/Rfgw7iDZ-bo/видео.html
Apparently base on did you know gaming, Nomura didn't even know he was the director of FF7 at the start. 😂
Someone just kept asking for his opinion which confused him at first.
@@JetBalrog well, they don't Always let him do what he wants (see Versus XIII which he got kicked off of because his vision was "too dark" and it got turned into XV).
And now he's throwing it into Kingdom Hearts and I couldn't be happier that our petty, madman, genius is really out here tying the FF and KH universes together.
@@Orion_TheyThem If "Childhood Friend/Loveinterest dying before the wedding, a best friend getting permanently blinded during a fight and being raised just so he can sacrifice himself for the greater good" is supposed to be the upbeat version of FF15, then I don't want to know what FF13-Versus would have turned out to be. Big oof though as, apparently nomura is going to weave of that into the Kingdom Hearts games to come.
The fact she didn’t get the red dress makes me hurt inside cause your reaction would’ve been that much more tearful
Same here. I wanted to hear Buns react to that SO bad! That scene is so gloriously extra, and she would have loved it. (I'm guessing she's seen it by now, but I would still love to know her reaction.)
I mean the over the top red carpet bit is fun, but honestly I find the pink dress to be way prettier and better fit for Aerith anyways; like Aerith herself said, the red dress is just too gaudy and her movement in it seems weird
@@jondoe7036 I see where you’re coming from, but the dress isn’t about what Aerith wants, it’s what Corneo wants and he’s a gaudy, greedy, gluttonous bastard. So the dress, while Aerith may not like it, fits her well enough for what Corneo would want a woman like her to dress like. Tho I also do agree that she makes the more modest pink dress work.
*barret & marlene interact* me: WHO PUT THESE TEARS IN MY EYES
Where'd these onion chopping ninjas come from?
Theres something in my eyes: TEARs
I'm convinced that 80% of the FFVIIR budget went to making Marlene as cute as possible.
to be fair, it was worth it
Worth the money.
The other 20% went to making Jessie thirsty af.
Protect da smol bean
We all know it was to pay Andrea's fees, that Magic Mike show and makeover combo don't come cheap, you know!
"Look at her eyes Cloud! Look a little lower.."
She knows how to convince a man.
If he's not interested, he's not interested. It can actually feel a bit creepy how people keep "thirsting" for him after he repeatedly turns down/reluctantly accepts certain advances.
@@MxPokirby glad I'm not the only one who feels like this, like it's CLOUD so I get it but still 🤕
@@MxPokirby which is why I couldnt stand Jessie in this game. Like she may have just spread her legs and had neon signs pointing at her vag. If a guy did that he'd be called a creep and a pervert. A girl does it and oh that's so cute how thirsty she is for him. Its pathetically hypocritical
They have certainly convinced me to do things I normally wouldn't do in the past, thats for sure.
Personally, these comments are rather bullshit to me. Cloud can easily split Jesse in half if he wanted and be way more direct if he really wanted to cut her off, just like he does Wedge or Barret at the start.
It would be another thing if Cloud looked legit uncomfortable, avoided her, or was more direct instead of an emotionally stunted loner weird kid. But that never happens except when you are given the choice after the mission with her and her pals for the explosives. Persisting on someone stubborn and closed off and persisting on someone completely uninterested or uncomfortable are not the same, my dudes.
First time I saw Hojo, I thought to myself "he looks like he'd be sticky"
You can feel the grease on the man, even in the original
Is it wrong that I'm really looking forward to whatever it is they manage to do with the scene of him lounging on the beach in Costa del Sol surrounded by beach babes? .....Also dreading it at the same time.
@@Shalakor As long as he keeps the lab coat on, that's fine. We don't need to see any more skin from Hojo than his gross, greasy, weasel face.
@@AstralMuffin105 OH NO! Maybe that's why part 2's ESRB rating is rumored to be M instead of T... I never considered this terrifying possibility.
@@Shalakor ...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- Why? Why did you make me think about that? It's bad enough he essentially tries to make Red n' Aerith do the Devil's Tango in some attempt to breed two nearly extinct species, even though if you had a basic biology lesson you'd know it'd be impossible! It makes me think of the deformed ostrich baby from the PETA episode of South Park. lol
Betty's Dad: "Oh Betty"
Aerith: "OH SHIT, WRONG KID!" Darts back into the ruins
Jessie has alot on her plate, hanging out with Cloud, having a blast with Avalanche... no wonder everyone in Sector 7 fell for her flirty and smashing personality.
Yes quite smashing.
Don't forget beating the shit of of Wedge and Biggs when she gets punchy!
“plate” “fell” “smashing” “blast”
Yeah she really is a bombshell
STOOOOP!
Johnny is actually in the original he’s just a SUPER minor character
I'm just replaying the original and I'm like "Big red hair! Waiiitttttt JOHNNY!"
4 hours of buttered buns? We EATING GOOD TODAY
its depressing Reno's voice actor died after doing such a great job in this game. It hurts man
Clarification: His Japanese voice actor, Keiji Fujiwara, who has been voicing Reno ever since his very first spoken appearance and also voiced Axel in Kingdom Hearts as well as a buttload of other characters, passed away just 2 days after the release of FF7R. He will be mourned by everyone, everywhere. ;__;
I'm a bit sad they didn't get Quinton Flynn to reprise his role as Reno in the game
@@Direwolf181 To be fair, it wasn't so much that "they didn't get Quinton Flynn" it was much more so that they got an all new cast by choice: No Steve Burton for Cloud, no Beau Billingslea for Barrett, no Rachael Leigh Cook for Tifa, no Quinton Flynn for Reno, etc.
@@GrahamChapman I know but kf they could have gotten anyone it should've been Quinton because Axel and Reno have always had the same actor Japanese and English
How did he passes away?
I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT NOTICED HOW SEPHIROTH JUST STRUTS AWAY. His fucking walk is like "yeah bitch, I'm fabulous"
Fucking fabulous
😂😂
Actually Johnny's in the original and his parents too, people just don't remember him cause y'know, he's irrelevant u_u
Also very easy to miss
Was he? I thought he was a new character. I got to download the original and finally replay it.
@@Mysticgamer he has at least on my replay 2 boxes of dialogue only outside of the honey bee in and that's it idk if he shows up later but yeah in the OG most non main characters had like 2~3 dialogue boxes at most so if people don't remember them despite being named or showing up is becuase of that
Jhonny straight up has his name on those boxes unlike other npcs in the area
Johnny is in FF7, as Split Dimension mentioned, he's in the bar and gets kicked out, he's also then seen the next day going on an adventure and all his friends are upset that Johnny is leaving. He is then seen on the train that the party gets, and from there he ends up in Wall Market outside of the Honeybee Inn, talking about "Should he or shouldn't he?"
He's not in Kalm, but he is in Costa Del Sol where he talks to Tifa.
After that we don't see him for a looong time until Cloud is in his vegetable state, and Tifa is the party leader, you can find Johnny in Costa Del Sol again and talk to him, he mentions that he proposed to his girlfriend. From that point onwards he gives some general one-liner responses if you talk to him again, mainly reactions to Meteor's appearance.

I just realized something despite me finishing the game about two weeks ago. Jessie’s mom and dad live on the sector 7 plate, meaning both of them died a long with their baby girl 🥺
To be fair, her dad was basically dead anyway, so it was really only her mom that died.
AstralMuffin105 well he technically alive, but it just took me a hot second to realize it wasn’t just the people from the sector 7 slums that died but also the people on the plate
Damn...
Zach Temoro I realized that too in my second play through 😧
elementalchevalier it makes you wonder why they didn’t highlight anyone on top of the sector 7 plate when they destroy the pillar. By that point, we already know theres still a lot of good people on the plates. I think it would’ve hammered home just how evil it was (even though we knew that it was already evil, but still would’ve made it more like “oh shit!”)
How was the game?
Buns: Yeah I'd say it's pretty good
It's a fucking disgrace!

-Buns, 2020
Don't forget that fact that Nomura is director
And now that the whisperers are gone and Disney can't veto anything. Nomura can now:
-Let everyone live
-Let everyone die
-Let Sephiroth win
-Let Sephiroth kill all the revived characters and everyone else only to be defeated by Cloud, leaving Cloud with more PTSD than ever before.
Nomura is only one of 3 writers though.
@@soul6733 Nomura isn't even writing. He's the director, and the writer y'all are thinking of is Nojima.
You know a lot of people, who are dissatisfied with Remake (IE not me) blame Nomura and his "uniqueness" and while he IS the director, a lot of the OG final fantasy crew worked on this. Including the original Scenario Planner. In fact one of the reasons they chose to do the remake NOW was because if they didn't the OG team would be too old to do it if they wanted to later. So the "changes" they made aren't just Nomura, they basically are done with the consent of MOST of the OG FF7 team.
@@Tenaxis And even then Kitase gets the final say as to what goes down, he's the final step so it's both Kitase and Nojima, with Nomura essentially putting the body together into a visual medium; it's sad how many think one person works on a game lol.
@@mekannatarry1929 I've never agreed with the notion that the directors are to be credited for the entire piece. Not with film or video games.
I think the vision Cloud had of himself in the church is supposed to be Zack, just not overtly as to not spoil the specifics of Cloud’s condition in the game.
In the original game it was never Zack talking to him. It was always Cloud.
The spoiler is the reason for that which we all know from the OG. So no that scene isn't different.
Cloud is talking to Cloud that last time he only scraped his knees. Because he was trying to save Tifa when they were kids from falling off Mt. Nibel and failed.
Zack was never inside Cloud's head. Cloud's condition is what we know of as a result of the trauma of losing Zack.
That's Cloud himself trying to break through and that's why the LifeStream scene in Mideel is so important.
Yeah i think that's what it was in the OG...but then shortly after he starts seeing the "Future" with Aerith's death so a small part of me has a theory that this time around it may actually be Cloud from the OG game....or Sephiroth who's fing with him by showing him clips of the future so he's more inclined to defy destiny which Sephiroth with use to circumvent his death.
@@itsdantaylor Could be. That's an interesting thing if that's the case
I think it makes way more sense for Cloud's actual personality be the one speaking as it was originally intended.
One thing that I only recently realized is the genius behind the Final Fantasy 7 logo. It shows the greatest threat in the game before you've even start playing
The remake's logo should have Nomura's face then
@@gemgem24able No. It should have been a mirror, so you can see the person who will try to stop our heroes from changing their destiny and making a better future for themselves, just because it opposes his/her nostalgia for og. Here's a hint: the original isn't going anywhere. If you don't like any changes to the story, you can play that instead.
@@genyakozlov1316 yeah because the original has the same graphical fidelity and writing style as the remake, right? Heck, same combat too, amirite. Don't get me wrong. The guy has very good ideas (he had a lot of contributions to the original story) but his storytelling is a mess. You can argue that he's the director, not the writer, but it was blatantly obvious that the one responsible for the ending was him...to the point that the only things missing are fireworks that would spell N O M U R A. look what he did to KH3. The guy can conceptualize, but he can't write. He just makes everything convoluted and confusing
EDIT: I've only played the OG a few months ago so no nostalgia for me.
@@gemgem24able from what I am seeing this story is fairly on point I'll be it with some goofy wording and some more detailed character Arc bye I haven't seen anything that would make it confusing. Kingdom Hearts 3 I think is more about extending the life of the franchise because it is so popular. Then the story got so confusing that I think it put the writers in a hole that they couldn't get out of
@@SuperBellyflop the number of videos on RUclips attempting to explain the ending proves that it is indeed confusing. My problem with the ending is that it assumes that the player has already played the original. I played the original and I still had to re-watch the ending just to understand it. I've watched a few streamers who haven't played the original and they just went "what?!" at the ending. Showing Zack, who the new players know nothing about? Implying that it is an alternate universe by showing that stamp is a different dog breed? It's just not good storytelling. I'm on the fence about the next game, but I would be happy if they would prove me wrong once it's released
Ain't gonna lie, in the original the characters didn't really leave a big impression on me. The Remake did characterization so well, that I love every one of them and the whole cast are some of the most lovable characters in any video game I've played. I even ship Cloud with both Aerith and Tifa (and everyone else tbh), and I usually don't ship because I'm aroace af and usually don't like romance in stories. But these people are so likable, I can't help it. I enjoyed this Remake more than I did the original, and that's saying something. What an amazing job they did with this.
edit: I'm wondering if Buns realized this is a sequel yet.
2:22:08 The way Barret's voice cracks when he cries, "WEDGE!" hurts man 😢
Cloud hugging Tifa in her resolution scene is everything.
Yeah 💖😍
The Aerith resolution scene is way better (and canon)
@@GooseGumlizzard nope
@@GooseGumlizzard All of them are canon, what are you talking about?
@@GooseGumlizzard Aerith is Cloud's real girlfriend yes but someone can still hug a dear friend in a time of need
Sephiroth is actually a reincarnated Xenahort using the Lifestream to access Kingdom Hearts and stop Hojo from banging Lucresia.

Jessie’s death really does hit different in the remake
"Death" Her glove was conveniently on the table at the end. It never showed who was in the bed on the other side.
@@xGhostCat waka waka....
when playthrough this and seeing what happens
it kind of sux in the classic game they just never bring up
the three character again
xGhostCat so getting blown up twice, crushed by debris and then flattened underneath the pillar once it collapsed didn’t kill her?
@@Flyxien Did it kill Biggs?
Dracosfire 7 Biggs was 3 floors up giving someone all the time in the world to find a rescue him. Jessie was 1 floor away from the top of the plate and was the only one left besides Barret, Cloud and Tifa. Even if someone found her there’s no way there getting her to the ground as the plate collapses 10 minutes after she dies. I would love for Jessie to survive but it ain’t happening so stop holding on to false hopes and just face the fact that she’s dead.
“If you know then you know, but if you don’t know you won’t know.”
Perfectly accurate.
Buns: *gasps* "CATS!"
Such a mood.
Glad you had the same reaction when Aerith was saving Marlene. Like... yes this is adorable but THE SKY IS LITERALLY FALLING! WE CAN DO CUTE SHIT LATER, WE GOTTA GO
Cloud is a mix of original and advent children, Barret is a huge teddy bear, and Nanaki is unplayable.
Nanaki being unplayable was okay because he was an absolute badass. I'm sure in Part 2 he will be even better, but he would have only been playable for 2 chapters.
I think it was a good decision. It would have been odd trying to learn how to control a new party member with their own mechanics while you're fighting the final boss. By that point, you're supposed to have the controls down.
@@WilliamBowles He's present for plenty of fights in Shinra HQ, it's not like you don't have some time at least.
William Bowles exactly. It also works for his character as he didn’t really care about the party until after Cosmo Canyon, he was just a guest until they went by his home.
@@Msoulwing hes not even there for 2 chapters. How is that plenty of time when the other characters have had multiple chapters for people to use? Him being playable would be stupid since it would basically be hey heres a brand new character that's only in your actual party for 2 chapters but he has his own moveset, equipment, weapons and cores for you to use and go through. Makes 0 sense
Crying: The Game
Ok majima
*KIRYU CHAN*
Nah, next game you will cry for real.
Its not often, with our desencitized state due to an abundance of enterainment and cinematic veriaty, that, games especially, attchieve the frequently attempted goal of delivering an emotional response in characterization and story telling. This along with exciting gameplay/combat, makes it a standout 4 me.
I wanted to like the comment but it has 420 likes
I love that Buns is freaking out over Zach being shown this early, and not that HE LIVES LOL. I don't envy the folks playing this as their first entry into FF7. So much of this game expects you to already know the story.
Yup! I'm one of those people that never played the original :) I knew Zack through the Kingdom Hearts games, but have/had no idea who he is in Final Fantasy. I did get he must be some important character the way he's revealed, and Bun's reaction confirmed it. Got some reading up to do :)
It actually works quite well in terms of hooking people into the fanbase. My wife had never touched an FF game in her life, but the mysteries the remake created for her were compelling enough to get her to want to get into the bigger FFVII story. She's almost beat the original, and Crisis Core is in the mail.
I mean isn't the whole reason he's so important not a thing now since he survived? He's probably going to have an even bigger reason why he's important now.
He doesn't live. He's taking Cloud to the very hill he died on in the original. And it's been confirmed that they aren't straying from the story, so... Zack's still dead
@@patrickmcgregor5168 Nope, it's an alternate timeline where he survives (check the dog breed of stamp on the pack that flies by, different to the "current" timeline). Aerith senses something weird because there's a world where Zack survives. When they took down the whispers, it had a ripple effect on this Zack's world.
Very interesting. So the idea is that the "Destiny" they are fighting against is the original FF7? Thats VERY interesting
Furuchooo yeah, and the whispers are a representation of the fans of the series that are trying to make everything the same, going as far to try and destroy everything when the beginning of the original game was the end of this one.
@@matthewmendoza3109 the whispers are just the haters! They're original kiddy game with kiddy graphics is/was shit. I only wish they could be killed just like in the game or die from Corona. FF7 RE is absolute GOAT territory and the definitive GOTY.
The OG timeline: Sephiroth is defeated. The Meteor is stopped. Midgar is saved. Sephiroth survives as an individual in the Lifestream and he infects everyone with Geostigma (source is Lifestream Black and White, which is before AC). Ultimately the conclusion is that all of humanity is dead in around 500 years (the last cinematic of original FF7).
They confirmed that the OG FF7'S story ultimately leads to the bad ending with Nanaki and his descendants observing the ruins of what humanity left behind. That is the true course of destiny, the Whispers and ultimately the will of the planet.
Repeating the OG events means a short-term victory but ultimately humanity is destroyed. What the characters want to do now is to find a different path to stop the bad ending while also stopping Sephiroth.
@@matthewmendoza3109 Eh, that meta commentary falls apart pretty quickly when you think about it more. Not to mention if it was accurate then the creators of the game just had the characters in the game kill the representation of the fans... so... ya know... not exactly great optics.
In the first game you have Sephiroth, who wants to destroy all life, Aerith, who wants to preserve all life, and the Planet, who wants to preserve itself. The planet honestly doesn't really give a shit about people. Hence why all the Weapons were fine with destroying entire cities to get at the Mako reactors. In the end the Planet is successful, Aerith is partly successful and Sephiroth loses.
In this Sephiroth, Aerith and the Planet seem to be aware of the events of the previous game. Sephiroth is working to change that outcome by messing with the timeline. The planet is trying to stop that from happening because is the original time line it survives, which is it's only concern. Aerith is fine with changing the timeline because it might mean they can do better this time. (It also might mean she won't have to die.) The three Whisper champions are Kadaj, Yazoo and Loz from Advent children. They're trying to preserve their time line because at least in that one they get to exist. The symbolism with the whispers goes a lot deeper than just being a representation of the fans that are afraid of change.
Aurora Echoes thank you for explaining both games to me, it really helps my understanding after having beaten the original 7 twice in the past year, having played it since the PlayStation 1 days, beating the new one twice (almost, I’m in the Shinra building on hard), watching several reviews and reading through quite a few discussion threads about the ending of the game and theories about where they’re going in the story from here. I’m well aware of what they actually are as well as them having a greater role to play in timelines they’re setting up for the rest of the series.
Regardless, that’s not symbolism, that’s their actual role in the story. What I’m talking about is what they represent symbolically to this game and the history of FF7 as a series, not what they literally are. This is almost certainly what they had intended with how they present the whispers in the game, a *remake* of one of the most iconic games of all time and probably the most important one outside of the original FF for the company. Remember, this is Nomura we’re talking about, Mr. Kingdom Hearts and it’s ridiculous story and meta references to the real player in the real world (I say this with love as it’s one of my favorite series of all time).
Seriously, consider what this game means to them as creators. What it means to you, me and the rest of the world as players who grew up loving that game and its amazing story. You cannot pretend that since the first day they mentioned remaking 7, that the fan base has not been in constant heated debate over whether they should change a thing about the game besides the graphics and environments. There was an extreme amount of backlash from the fans from a few years back when they first mentioned that they were going to be adding onto the story. It was almost in unison that people reviewing the trailers all called foul when they first saw the whispers in the Aerith reveal. It must have been a monumental decision on the creators’ part when they decided that they were going to change and reimagine a cultural icon.
Now with that in mind, think about the structure of this game, and further, the remake series as a whole. This is the beginning of a new adventure, a fresh start for all of major fans of the original. We have no clear idea on how this story that we once knew inside and out will go. There are many who would fight tooth and nail to hold onto the old 7, those who are in essence the guardians of the world of FF7; their love having made the game into what it is. They are the final obstacle to this remake - not just this game, but the creation of the entire remake series. This is why they make for an extremely meta final boss, as the characters are fighting against the fate that we, not just as players, but anybody who loves the original 7 has imposed upon them. The world and timeline of FF7 already exists, but they’re determined change it (especially Sephiroth), and they rise up and defeat the guardians of the original canon to begin their new journey, a journey in which they will have to continuously struggle to defy the expectations that their world and it’s protectors have for them. If anything, this theory about the symbolic (not literal) nature of the whispers becomes more concrete the closer you examine it.
Side note, I smoked a bowl before writing this, but I’m a philosophy minor about to graduate (then going to law school) who is a massive fan of all of FF, and Kingdom Hearts. I’m a member of the Nomura pain train to hell, so get that I’m not pulling this out of my ass and this opinion/observation comes from a long time fan of the man’s (let’s call it) artistic expression
Cloud having the mental age of a 16 y.o. certainly explains his awkwardness in the HoneyBee inn. And all the rest of the game XD

I've never played final fantasy before ever. I was vaguely aware of the franchise but never actually played it. The first thing I saw about this game were guys complaining that Tifa's breasts were smaller in this game. After watching game play I can honestly say that these guys obviously watch too much hentia cause her chest is ridiculously big. I can only imagine how big they were before. 😂
Just tipe final fantasy 7 cutscene north crater weapons
I'll never get tired of listening to other fans' reactions.
What I love about this remake is they knew that most of the people have either watched Advent Children and/or played Crisis Core, and this harkens back to those games in a way that’s subtle, yet satisfying.
I had the exact same reaction when Zack showed up, deadass I screaming "I DON'T WANT TO SEE THIS!!!!!!!" at my screen through my tears.
Its just so funny to me that Cloud and Aerith literally fight a HOUSE
No amount of dementors were able to stop Cloud from dancing, they do not imagine the whole dancing sequence is the secret to go against their will.
2:15:31
"Who else will I have Ice cream with?"
Am I the one... who did this to you..?
I love that the scene at the honey bee inn has been turned from one that's this secret shame into one that's a celebration. It is a beautiful demonstration of how far we have come in 23 years.
Best thing is cloud s reaction stayed even
Something I noticed early on is that Jessie's bomb did blow up the device controlling the reactor, meaning they weren't trying to cause major damage. Which makes Shinra's amplification to demonize them all the more heartless.
I really love how this game rewards Crisis Core players cus goddamn so many references (and the dirge of Cerberus but it's referenced a lot less)
Also Before Crisis.
You're literally in love with every character in the game. I love it.
“Aerith eats shit in slomo!” Has to be my favorite quote in this video
i don’t mind them showing zack to newcomers because even if it’s confusing they’ll want to see who he is and what happens the next game. but that’s the point of a next game to answer what will happen... it’s a pretty good ending for both grounds
It's funny cuz some OG players have been complaining that newbies won't know who he is. I'm like.... yes.... the story isn't over... and...
"cait sith what? what's he doin here?"
he's reeves isn't he? of course he'll be there.
I can't wait to never have him in my party in the next game. He can join Edward from Final Fantasy 4 in the team of useless characters.
Adam Tideman Cait Sith is the only one who can bring the comedy.
this. people also forget that the original also had a cait sith cutscene as the plate falls, no context and you dont get to use him until golden saucer IIRC
Damn, that was a pretty big spoiler for me as someone who didn't play the original. Reeves, the only one who felt bad and has a conscious in Shinra, is the CAT THING that showed up in that one scene? Huh???
Kelly Joule it’s a complicated situation. Technically Cait Sith is his own person.
God the combat and music, "chef kiss" love ya bread mom
Itsa spicy meatball 👌
New Recruit is EASILY one of my favorite characters in the Remake.
awww you missed one of Jessie's best lines. just before the ladder in 1st reactor if you talk to her "your choosing me over the reactor? thats sweet but i'll wait my turn, go blow her mind"
“7 seconds until the end”
It takes exactly 7 seconds from Sephiroth appearing before he -spoilers- stabs Aeris, so that riddle at the end seems to suggest Cloud is being given a chance to save her. “What will you do with it?” seems to hint that saving Aeris will cause bad things to happen, and Cloud will have to let it happen even though he has the power to stop it.
It’s pointed out in the chapter summary of chapter 18 that the 7 seconds is referring to the meteor impact, this doesn’t rule out Aerith being saved though.
That one implication completely explains why sepphy isn't even aggressive or anything during that scene. Jesus that would be so fucked up and exactly what sephiroth would do.
I love how Red explaining the meta purpose of the Whispers and thus the implication that future events would change went completely unnoticed, especially when the biggest clue was Wedge being alive for so long when he was supposed to die when he fell off the pillar.
I have a theory as to why Cait Sith shows up. He was on his way to try and stop the plate from falling.
That's what I thought too.
Same here - its even said in the original (by Tseng) that only a Shinra executive can turn off the plate separation. An executive like Reeve maybe?
The way I see it, the whispers are the continuity police, they're making sure the timeline stays the way it was in the original. I kinda caught onto this when they saved Aerith in the church. So, when they first appear in the streets of Midgar after blowing the reactor, they make you notice Aerith by freaking her out and then causing soldiers to come after you because you're supposed to be chased onto the train like in the original. Then, when you get kicked off from the second reactor mission, they attack and injure Jessie, forcing you to take her place and be back on the mission. Then they stop you from killing Reno, because he wasn't supposed to die, and you are supposed to run away through the back of the church with Aerith. Then there's everything they do in the Shinra building, saving Barret from Sephiroth, but not the President because the President was supposed to die there, along with them helping you escape Shinra when the debris nearly crushes Tifa, Aerith, Barret, and Red on the highway. They've been doing all of this to keep the original timeline flowing.
Also, at the end there, I'm not sure if Buns got it or not, but it implied that there was a change and Zack survived at the end since he took out all of the soldiers, including the three that originally finished him off.
It is implied several of the interruptions that caused major events to continue the same way, such as the deaths of the Avalanche trio and Zack, were avoided if not entirely denied. I wonder what they will do with that, since there are limitless possibilities opened up by such a fact.
