I wasn't planning on making this video, but after replaying the Remake in preparation for Rebirth, I found myself pounding out the script in a couple of days. I don't know if anyone will even watch this video, much less enjoy it, but I wanted to share my thoughts on this game nonetheless.
I am always happy to see a new Altercate piece. I didnt play FF7 at the time, and new 7 doesn't hold that much more interest for me, but I like your take on everything you cover. Your voice is a welcome and trusted addition to the conversation. Thanks for being great!
You are criminally undeserved by the algorithm, but such is the nature of hidden games like yourself. As a side note, I believe there is plenty of space for you to do more videos like this one. I am a big fan of your deeper retrospectives, and this one didn't seem any less coherent or insightful. If pieces like this are easier to make, I say crank 'em out when the feeling strikes. You are doing good work either way, and we are lucky to have found you.
I'm currently replaying Remake myself and just got to Chapter 9. Aerith explains to Cloud that Wall Market is called so because lawlessness rose in the area and Shinra's solution wasn't to fix it, but to build a big wall and contain it
I feel like the increase of whispers serves to prove just how much the timeline is going astray, I actually liked it, I just hope that the game doesn't turn into KH, if you speedrun or do the same things you end up at the same ending but if you do the side quests and/or choose diferent routes you end up at something totaly new
I hope that Rebirth will be basically the same story as in the original, but with a lot of the lesser details changed, to keep things interesting. I feel like that would be the most fun :)
Looking forward to Barrets sailor outfit in 4k. I enjoyed your thoughts on remake, I really want Rebirth to live up to or surpass it. The Nibelheim section of the demo was spectacular.
This was the game that made me think that Square-Enix could potentially make good games again. I was so disillusioned with everything that came out after X. After forcing myself through XIII, I thought I would never play Final Fantasy again. After this, I have been slowly catching up on everything I missed out on the last 10+ years.
Yeah that’s pretty much exactly how it went for me too. I started to regain some faith with A Realm Reborn, but that only proved they could do a good MMO. Remake is really what restored my faith in them as a company capable of making solid single player experiences again.
For sure. It very much seems like both Aerith and Sephiroth know about future events, leading to a “Remake” of the timeline through their knowledge of what was supposed to happen and it changing.

i think you are criminally underrated i love your retrospectives!
Thank you so much! That's very nice of you to say :)
Omg! RUclips didn’t show me a recent upload, so I’m super late. I’ll be watching this asap. Can’t wait for your incredible insight, as usual!

@@chadwickjdillon Thank you for sharing your perspective! You are very kind :)
Dang, I missed your channel update video. So this is where you've been hiding! Subbed once again!
Hey, welcome back! :)
Really enjoyed this video a ton! I'm always down to hear your thoughts on pretty much any game, new or old!
I'm very happy to hear that! :)
Love your retrospectives! Any chance the “Legend of Dragoon” is on your list for a future video?
Thank you! Yes, I definitely want to do LoD at some point. It's not at the top of my list though so don't expect it anytime soon :D

Oh yeah, I totally forgot that conversation lol. Thanks for the clarification!
@@AltercateTV anytime 😂 well done on such a great video!

Thank you! Haha yeah I wanna see Barret in the sailor suit, and Red XIII!

Girl: Can you help find my cats?
(I found a cat, and it ran away)
Cloud: This sucks.
I agreed, and quit playing.
This is a great video; I really enjoy your Final Fantasy content!
Thank you! :)
AYO New Altercate let's go
Aint watch yet but commenting to appease the deities who dance to Al Gore's rhythm
Thanks for the support! Hope you enjoy the video :)
Can’t wait for rebirth!
Me too buddy :)
I hate this game so much
It seems like a sequel to me. Even stuff from the devs suggests it’s not a literal ‘remake’
For sure. It very much seems like both Aerith and Sephiroth know about future events, leading to a “Remake” of the timeline through their knowledge of what was supposed to happen and it changing.
