They said there wouldn't be DLC. All focus is on making part 3 perfect. I bet the P3 demo is a Cid and/or Vincent section as an into to controlling them.
You're one of the few who can see without Clouded eyes... The loss I feel after playing this game is worse than the OG. Perhaps because we spend more than 100+ hours with the characters and Aerith especially. Aerith really become the heart and soul of the party for me, she even show leadership when everyone was down and Cloud somehow lost his way. So yeah, great job by Square Enix.
Oh yes, Aerith definitely is the heart of the team I think after cosmo Canyon, I started to love her character even more and related to her so much this game was such a ride and can't wait till part 3 despite it flaws game of the year
@emd78s barret crying really hit me in that bit with Dyne would never guessed I'd relate to barret after starting pt 1 especially how he acts towards cloud
@dstroxp yea he definitely was different in remake. I think he said he wanted Barret to be more well rounded in Rebirth. To be strong but also showing that he has emotions and actually cares too.
That ending, as someone who played the original, felt like we we're robbed in a sense. In my opinion, the removal of Cloud saying what he's supposed to say.. Before I even started Rebirth I was spoiled going into it when it was coming out. I had heard where the end was gonna be, and I had a sneaking suspicion it would end there too. So basically I got through the whole game looking forward to hearing those lines and then they weren't said. It feels like they took away a very important moment which hopefully you're right and it plays out as the original intended later on. That said, its like you say: its an intentional change. They did it this way to show us - who follow Cloud's perspective throughout the game - how absolutely messed up he is because of Sephiroth and Jenova. We are absolutely supposed to be confused at this point, which feels weird knowing how its supposed to end so I can only imagine what its like for someone starting with Rebirth. I look forward to the answers in FFVII:Re3(most likely FFVII: Reborn if we take the soundtracks names at the end of the game into account). Also, they did say there wouldn't be any DLC like the Yuffie one. Vincent and Cid are to become available in the final part as playable like Red XIII became playable in Rebirth. I wouldn't hold onto hope about a Vincent DLC, and instead be pleasantly surprised if one does actually come. And with that said, the wait for Journey's End begins..
@TRNFloyd oh definitely I can understand the feeling robbed bit because I watched that scene from a friend of mine when I was little had no idea what he was playing 😅. But yeah I'd rather part 3 come out sooner now instead of them putting resources into a dlc because I need answers now!!!!!
Te entiendo 😢 Yo también pensaba que habría alguna posibilidad de salvar a Aeris... 😓 No sé, es la impresión que me dieron a entender cuando los creadores hicieron remake y rebirth. Pero ahora, al ver que ni siquiera pudimos hacer nada..... Se siente un@ impotente ante tal destino impuesto 😔
Yes it it's no secret even if you haven't played the original FF7 everyone knows aerith dies. So I thought they were gonna change it up but I'm excited to see how cloud will deal with her death since he believes she's alive in the remake
The great thing about the structure of Rebirth is that you can literally revisit any chapter, or even just go to Chapter 12 and go back and complete anything you skipped. If there's one thing I recommend, it's to do the protorelic quests that you missed because there are some really great character moments in there, ESPECIALLY the ones in Cosmo Canyon. I for one couldn't bring myself to continue without completing everything I possibly could, but the game looks out for the player by making literally nothing missable. Now for the ending. The one major takeaway from this ending that needs to be understood (which you seem to be onboard with) is that the final hours of this game are presented to intentionally mislead and confuse. There is so much information crammed into the last few hours of this game that there's no way to process it all on first watch, and even through multiple watches and analyzation we still don't know what's really happening here. The truth is that nobody knows what's going to happen going forward, nor what is truly happening now. We are on one of the craziest cliffhangers ever, and if there's a few things that are true, it's that: 1. Cloud's mind is completely shattered. The overload of information that the poor man has suffered in the wake of one of the most tragic moments of his existence is too much for him to bear, in addition to the personal stuff happening with him on the molecular level. The genius part of this is that his confusion is conveyed through the player as well. We're just as confused as this guy, and are in the same boat of not knowing what to believe. 2. Aerith is dead, and Cloud is in denial about it. Our party has suffered that loss clearly, while Cloud has not. In the fight against Jenova, he's the only character that doesn't have a maxed limit gauge, and he's the only character that has seen this ambiguous nature of her "dying/coming back to life". Whether he's somehow seeing all the possibilities via world line convergence, somehow remembering the OG timeline, mentally distorting what he's currently seeing as a coping mechanism, or any combination of the above, it's clear the man is not all there by the end of the game. 3. TIFA NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED. MY GIRL IS SO DISTRAUGHT AND CONFUSED AND JUST LOST HER BEST FRIEND AND HER BOYFRIEND IS ACTING LIKE A SHADY WEIRDO UNCONCERNED ABOUT THE DEATH OF HIS OWN FRIEND OMG SOMEONE GIVE TIFA A HUG PLEASE. *ahem* If you're interested in some theory crafting for the next game, I would personally recommend checking out Maximilian_DOOD's post-finale stream on Twitch and go down the rabbit hole with him. He (along with his chat) comes up with some really interesting theories and observations that REALLY paint the end of the game in a much more sinister light, even sparking the hatred and ire of some of the fandom in the process. Long story short, let's just say that he doesn't think Jenova is as much of a background player here as it is in the original 😈 (www.twitch.tv/videos/2099777500) Great video man! I haven't had the chance to check out the whole playthrough due to the time dedication, but your playlist is saved for future viewing when I do get time.
@NSDominator hey I appreciate the comments and yes been heavily watching theory videos and all. And I figured aerith is definitely dead just clouds mind is in a blender pretty much and max dood been watching him for years so I'm in the rabbit hole too 😅. This game is truly something one of the best
@@NSDominator I also suspect the cloud and tifa moment when their in the lifestream to be even more layers added on and really can't wait for that moment
The constant mood in the OG I like because its sad the whole time. Shes gone. In rebirth though its tough because you get to know the characters with the audio dialogue and improved imagery. Kept going back and forth with this one because its sad, but then you get into the shit talking cause Sephiroth is smooth with it. The sadness went up when Cloud layed Aerith down and you see everyone just standing there in shock. Plus Sephiroth talking with Aerith's theme in the background reminded me of thev way it felt on the og. For me though, what puts this scene over the top is Aerith's theme coming back in hard at the start of the jenova fight. At that point couldn't help getting misty eyed.
@emd78s yeah that bit when the jenova battle starts with aerith theme playing really hits and I think imthe game put us in clouds shoes because he had no limit break and we as the player are confused it's a lot to unpack but so many emotions
@emd78s yes can't wait to see in part 3 the whole party's perspective on Aerith's death I feel like Tifa and barret will definitely be on business when dealing with sephiroth
@ETHomerin from this game I'll take everything I just love it. It was a lot to process but I think that's the fun part the 4 years I've speculated with others online leading to rebirth release now as we wait for part 3 is gonna be interesting either it pays off or not the journey was fun
Remake and Rebirth both mean so much to me, and I always appreciate seeing love thrown their way. Same goes for the OG. I truly take these games as the creators’ love letter to life itself, and the fact that these games were released in pretty dark times make them all the more precious to me. Thank you for playing with the care and consideration these games deserve. Cheers to the wait for part 3! 🥹
i whole heartedly agree these remakes in this time are truly a blessing and I love every second when i fire up remake or rebirth and know their history because I grew up watching advent children and knowing key points in og ff7 so its easier for me to digest the remake compared to others will bring myself to finish playing og ff7 before part 3 drops
Thanks again for all the support lets hope part 3 isnt too far away 3 years at most maybe a Vincent dlc in between
Nice reaction man. Subscribed!
@@ff.mychael Hey Thanks so much 😃
@@dstroxp No worries at all. Made me want draw again
@@ff.mychael that's sick wish I could draw 😅

@@dstroxp It's my game of the year at least. Yeah, that Cosmo Canyon event lifted her character more.
@benerio1664 yes that scene was really something
Thanks for posting your playthrough
hey thanks for being here 😀
Also...its almost impossible for me to get passed Barret crying without at least shedding a few tears
@emd78s barret crying really hit me in that bit with Dyne would never guessed I'd relate to barret after starting pt 1 especially how he acts towards cloud
@dstroxp yea he definitely was different in remake. I think he said he wanted Barret to be more well rounded in Rebirth. To be strong but also showing that he has emotions and actually cares too.
@emd78s yes definitely on of my favorites now rebirth just made me love all the main cast well idk about Cait sith yet 😅
thanks for this beautiful playthrough
have a nice day 😊
@jodaakbr7227 Thanks for joining. I appreciate you watching 😀

first try seph woah. how is it possible to do two finishing touches back to back?
@absfinal could believe it myself. aerith 3rd limit break gives the party level 3 limit breaks I believe.
An ending that's too much... But would you want anything less? :D
