My Girlfriend's BLIND REACTION to THAT FF7 Moment
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- My girlfriend is playing the Switch version of Final Fantasy 7 for the very first time, without any prior knowledge minus Cloud being the protagonist.
Up to this point Aerith was her favorite character... enjoy you sick bastards.

"Aeris will no longer talk,no longer laugh,cry .....or get angry....."
why you gotta make me tear up at work :(
@@Jmanintendo You posted a Final Fantasy video and have a Shulk pfp. You have great taste in video games.
Her name is Aerith you utter boomer.
Aeris was a spelling error. Grow up, manchild.
I already knew she would die, but that sentence almost made me cry. This is my first final fantasy game and i just played this part this morning. I'm still sad.
That's the line that shattered me as a 13 year old back in 2000. I was already crying but that line made me break down entirely...
When you start to hear the music is when you know, she's not coming back
*Aeris gets stabbed* it’s alright she’s good. *Aeris theme plays* oh nvm
@@HEYitzED Areith
Areis was her name when it got lost in translation during the translating on the case cover for the game. Lol but yes XD
Kadren Wolf I know. I can’t help but still call her Aeris.
Yeah, that moment was very well orchestrated. Without it, Sephiroth would only be half as memorable as a villain.
@@MightyJabroni well said
the fact that her theme continues to play even during the JENOVA battle only makes it worse :"(
It was the saddest fight ever. You felt like beating Jenova didn't even matter.
@@dark196 When you're in such pain that all you can think of is Aeris, and the boss fight is a distraction.
Evidence as to why Squaresoft (yes...i said soft) were genius story tellers
i remember having bahamut or neo bahamut (dont remember which) and kjata. I used all the summons and rage for that fight.
Now imagine this fight in a modern Game, the music plays, no one talks. Just cloud Screaming the hell out of him while he fights jenova.
0:33 that reaction, that look, that face. That is the face we all made, every gamer everywhere when it happened. The sudden realization of what just transpired and that she wasn't coming back. The realization that this wasn't just about saving the planet anymore, this was personal. Then the music hits and the tears being to flood. This was the first time I'd ever cried and was emotional over a character death in a video game.
I played the game completely blind too when I was 9 years old, right when the game came out in 97. Aeris was my fav character as well. I remember my family was going on vacation the day after. This scene hit me the night before I left with my family and it completely ruined my vacation. It was all I could think about. I was like quiet and depressed the entire trip.
You're parents "what's wrong kiddo" "you wouldn't understand" lmao xD
Wow, it shows how much it has affected so many people.
Now experience your heartbreak in HD :)
Jonathan Labuga episodically...
Sadly
uhh
In uh part 2 or maybe part 3.....
weeeeeeelll....don't know about that after the ending of the remake xD
Maybe not...play ff7remake!
That's so brutal with the boss battle straight afterwards! "I don't wanna fight" 😢 Best/saddest moment in video game history
atciowa03 Actually the boss fight was made intentionally very easy. The boss has a lot of HP but does basically no damage. It’s as if the game gives you a punching bag.
Also Aeris’ theme plays throughout that boss fight. It’s part of the intended experience.
I remember being enraged. Lol I was going full savage thinking that I could save Aerith after the fight.
Ikr I genuinely felt it for her
I'd be in no mental condition to fight a complicated boss after so it's a good thing the boss was ez
Also if you picked up the water ring it’s in a chest before meeting up with Aries , this boss practically heals you during the battle
COD GHOST DEAD FLASH BACK 🥲🥲👍
Not only her death, but when the theme plays all the way through the Jenova battle straight after :(
and onward into the water burial scene too
Me at 7 years old not knowing how to react while the battle starts
"I don't wanna play..."
It's okay... We know... We've been there... ;-;
The strentgh of this moment is that even with the most cynical view, you will feel the loss of of the time you spent to level up this character... So with some heart, it doubles the pain... And as a video gamer you think : naaaah, I'll have to resurect later. And you carry this hope to the very end of the game. Once finished, the loss is complete.
I feel that one of the most overlooked yet absolutely ingenious parts of FF7's design is that each character has their own designated spot in that little character grid thingy, and after Aerith death the character grid doesn't just shuffle her empty slot to the final square where it would become less noticable... instead, it actually keeps Aerith's forever-empty spot right there on the character grid, as a constant reminder of the fact that, yes, we have lost someone...
@@GrahamChapman Yep ! Do you remember one of the last scenes of the game ? All the heroes are standing on red rocks in front of the glowing final menace. I immediatly noticed that there was one only rock with nobody standing on it, on the side... T_T
It even made me believe that there was a way to have Aerith at this final step of the game.
@@MegaDAWIL Oh yeah, I noticed that, too... the rock that Aerith would've stood upon, had she still been at our side... It was those little things that really got to you, y'know...
We all believed that... There's a reason why the search for ways to revive Aerith became such a huge thing in the FF fanbase. But I really do respect the fact that Square didn't include any such cop-outs, and they better not include any in the Remake, either. In fact, I sincerely hope that they'll be able to recreate those little reminders of the fact that Aerith is gone...
I never saw it that way. I thought it to be funny how Aeris already got all the ultimate weapons and items the game would give her way earlier than the rest, like she was set up for something. Then when she died this bit about reaching her sealing totally made sense.
@@Ohne_Silikone the foreshadowing. And the Great Gospel
The best thing is you have to go straight to boss battle afterwards, while the music keeps playing. They won’t let you settle for one bit.
The best part of the game. Really captures the emotion
"I don't want to fight" - Oh man, I felt that, that took my straight back to my first play-through.
My reaction was waaaay worse, I cried for 10 minutes and then after they had placed her in the water I think I stopped playing the game and started playing again after a week. That really messed me up.
The water funeral part was the nail in the coffin for me… I was slightly spoiled years ago about this… but not the part about the water… and the fight with JenovaLIFE… ugh 💔
Thank you for this, its exactly the kind of reaction videos i love the most.
Could you imagine if these would’ve been recorded 26 years ago when we first played this game. When this for us was the absolute pinnacle of gaming. It was so hard to watch, I genuinely felt like I was grieving and had to do it in private. This really is the greatest video game I’ve ever played.
Mine would have to be censored I cried I cussed i broke my tv with my 🎮 why square why my fav magic user dead why 😢😭
My heart literally dropped at 0:29. I knew the sound and I was like NOOOOOO
That scene should be considered psychological torture given that it made grown men shed tears from hearing three notes 13 years later when playing the remake
Imagine that scene in our newest Aerith on Remake. Dang.
It’s midgar only
There is a chance that it wont happen anymore...
Erick Souza THERES gonna be more parts
I know but history is not the same anymore
They pussys didn’t have the guts to do it in the remake for shame
2:43 everyone's reaction....
“But I don’t want to fight,” I’m sorry, but that’s life. You got to go on no matter how much it hurts. So many life lessons to be learned from FF7.
Easily the saddest moment ever in a game, it definitely affected me when it happened lol
Plot twist: she levelled aeris high then now discovers all that grinding hours are just for naught
She : I don't want to fight
Me : Me too! ):
same reaction
Not me, I wanted to fight, I wanted to burn the whole fucking world to the ground to get to Sephiroth after that.
@@ComicalHealing Same. That Jenova fight tho. So annoying. Took me a few tries. Didn't feel any accoplishment after I beat her. I mean. Of course. But still. Expected more of her lol.
God dammit this scene still makes me cry. You neber get over it. Amazing storywritting😭😭
I felt the same way when the twins cast stone on a certain someone in ff4...
Had to quit the game for 48 hours to get emotionally stable again...
Damn the Palum and Polum moment is a proper heartbreaking plot point in FFIV
I feel like FF4 had so many emotional moments.... only to be completely undone at the very late game. I still love the game, but now it just doesn't hit me as hard.
I remember when I was a kid and played it fresh for the first time. Played it when it came out. I had a “crush” I guess on her or at Le east cared about her character. I was 10.
I bawled when she died. It’s what has cemented this game as being the best, the deepest of all time imo no matter how great graphics have improved. The story, what happens, the music...all of it.
Remake might just kill me, lol. I keep hearing they’ll change that, but sad to say changing one of the most iconic moments in gaming would be idiotic. Of course, we won’t know for years when the second part is released.
Yea they seem to have changed it in a very unique way yea it's got its endgame vibes from avengers but that makes it so special atleast in my opinion
@@YouWillDieInSevenDaysglad to report developers are aware of everything and they love these characters more than us. So have no worries, ff7 remake was actually the best, characters and the world and story are incredible 👌
Replying to a 2-year-old comment here. ;)
I have a feeling they're going to do a bait-and-switch on us in the remake. They're going to make you think you've saved her, but then it will turn out that because she (and Zack) lived, Sephiroth will end up winning. Then, in order to fix everything, she will send us back to that moment, and let it happen, ripping out and stomping on our hearts all over again.
she took it far better than I did, I cried so much 😂😂😂
I appreciate how this video was considerate towards those you don’t know about this scene yet :)
Bothers me when people spoil significant moments like this and try to justify it with “it’s like 20 years old now, it’s not really a spoiler” like no, these are new fans that are new to the series!
Thanks! Yeah I think it's because the remake was coming out, and not knowing how it was going to shake out made me want to leave it ambiguous. This was a reaction video for people like me who wanna relive a big moment in gaming history through someone else
I was expecting to laugh, but ended silently crying with her
awwwww, this just goes to show that this game is so well done that it really makes you feel strong emotions of different kinds
I didn't play the game until 11 years after it came out. But my best friend in high school had played it and told me about it. He even brought the CD or something in to school the next day after he played that part and showed me the cut scene.
Even knowing about it ahead of time though, it doesn't lessen the impact at all. Hearing about it second hand versus actually going through it. When you've actually played the game all the way through at that point, and you're invested in her as a character, and you're invested in the story and in her personality as a person, since she's so sweet and innocent. And then you actually see and experience it firsthand finally, it's just as impactful as going in blind. Or it was for me.
I can recognize what she's watching just by the sound effects
It’s so heartwarming to see so many people having the same reaction to this moment.
This was very endearing to watch. Just watching this at 1:27 got me choked up. We all know that pain when that happened for the first time. And every time i replay the game i still cry here. When the remake comes to this part i will need to take like a week off work to pull myself back together.
The moment you realize that you put the best armor on her...
I held it together until the “I don’t wanna fight” at the end….. totally felt that…. Brought me back to when I was 15 feeling that same thing.
I didn’t want to fight either.
Also wanted to add… it was nice to see a genuine reaction to this moment and not some faked bs.
I remember rwaching this scene..After that final boss batle, i save the game and went straight to bed. I didnt cry..but aerith death make me keep thinking about it..i just want to go to sleep and aint gonna believe that this scene happen.
Dude that was savage lol! Your poor girlfriend. She now knows why so many teenagers were depressed back in '97, myself included.
I was only 7 when I experienced it. Tough times at school the next day
@@ugandahater 7 because FF7 nice.
she said °0°
Omg I so sorry, at first glance I though it said "My blind Girlfriend's reaction". What like, how does that work? I feel dumb. I loved her reaction though and glad she was able to see it.
I feel your pain...surely. She wasn't just a video game character for me, she was part of my childhood...gone but never forgotten. ❤️😢
amist the crying the "i dont wanna fight" kills me, this sad ass scene plays out with the music and everything and instead of combat music u just fight with it still playing.
"nooooo"
same words in all reaction of this scene
I can relate to that emotions
I felt that way too...
That pain in her eyes is what fueled all of us together though as much as it sucks
Please SE let us save her in the Remake 🙏 i can’t take this one more time 😭
0:33 you can pinpoint the exact moment her heart rips in half
Yuffie's reaction's just so heartbreaking, it gets me more than any other party member
It just sucks that I just. I just don't play as Cid, Vincent or Yuffie. Avalanche team only dunno why
I remember when I first experienced this. Days of sadness.
Eventually replaced with amazing amounts of rage.
While performing omnislash on Sephiroth in the final battle, I was screaming at the TV.
The saddest moment in history of gaming 😭
This game changed my life. When I was a kid, my first time playing I was like "I have to read all this? No thanks.." two years later I decided to give it a shot.
And boy am I glad I played this game
The 5 steps of grief in 3:01 minutes..
We've all been there...
I remember being 10 crying and having a very difficult fight with jenova. This moment is why I'm a FF7 fan.
MARRY HER
It was certainly not the first moment in gaming where an important character died. However I dare say it is one of the first games where it genuinely had such a shocking, rather visceral display of it. You had to watch a character you might have adored being skewered by an hated enemy.. and watch the life fade from her eyes as she slumps over. From a smile to fading shock in mere seconds.. and adding to that this music.
Square did us dirty.
That hum that happens at the beginning triggers something in me every damn time
Don't worry, love. We all cried and still do.
Came up on my recommendations - love her reaction, brought back memories...
Aww the feels!
Shout out to !remindme bot for errr, well for reminding me.
FF7 still working its magic almost 25 years later
The first time I played this, I got to this moment having had omnislash and omnislash was ready to go. The sound of omnislash in the battle is cinematically perfect.
Just from the sound effect I can picture in my head what she is watching...the 12yo me was not good for rest of the game....
The hardest part is when you have to fight Jenova with the music.
I feel ur pain trust me it's the saddest moment in all of video games
I think it really set in when I started disk 2 and opened up the menu and she wasn’t there.
Noooo I could hear the exact point it happened through the music 😭😭
Now experience the pain in crisis core
It's always a gem when somebody doesn't know because it's the most memed spoiler for decades online. I had to keep my mouth shut for 3 months because I wasn't sure if a friend of mine knew about it or not, wasn't sure about his progress too. Unfortunately, he found out by accident at some point before it happened for him when I asked after he finished the game.
Mystic... Legendary video game history scene.
You sweet summer child. The first winter is always the hardest lol.
Aerith and her whole family got murdered, one at A time. Damn
She wont be sad for long. She can snowboard soon. It will be long forgotten then.
To be honest once the song hits is really when it gets to me, I start off with "Im going to be ok" then BOOM I am done for a few minutes.
Your face as you fight the boss of disc 1. Been there...
Big hugs. Huge hugs. It hit us all hard too. Cmere *hug*.
The part that hurts more is when each other the characters pay their respects that are in your current party. One that hits me is when cait sith or TIfa paying their respects
This is straight up why I hope there is a chance to to save her in ff7r. My younger self would not forgive me if there wasn’t. Maintain the original story but damn gotta save her at the same time
Zack is alive for a reason
Yeah I agree with you but, I feel like you can’t tell the story of FFVII without Aerith being killed. It’s like telling the story of Christianity but Jesus is never crucified.
Zack dont got nun to do with this@@mufarreh30
@@ErenDenizMert"Cloud! Save her!"
When I was young when I got to this scene, I turned off the game and didn't come back until 3 years later. It affected me that much
And then you have to save after she dies. Looking at the save file heartbreaks😢
Most impactful moment in gaming
Doing the fight after, numb. Ah, memories.
At that time i was only 4 years old and could not relate so this is what it means to feel what a lost is
I know...I know.
She's all :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
And I'm like instant upvote.
00:26 "Seven seconds till the end."
I don't even find myself crying.
I'm genuinely worried I'm psychotic due to that red flag and/or jacket.
SHE LOOKS HE GOING DOWN 🤣 FAVORITE MOMENT
Exactly. That part is still one of the saddest Ive seen in any game
This was the part of the game that gave me PTSD, methinks. Her reaction at 0:33 is what EVERYBODY did, including myself.
Exactly how I felt cried my eyes out
My ex-best friend spoiled it for me. I was watching her play the game on PC. The characters she was using were Barret and Aerith (or Aeris as she was back then). I remember thinking Aerith was adorable and her moves looked so pretty.
I was looking forward to playing the game when I finally got it secondhand on PS1. Next thing I know, ex-best friend comes running up to me in the school yards:
"Katherine! AERIS DIED!"
"WHAT?!"
She took me back to her place after school that day, where she showed me the clip. I sat there agag.
Yes, it was sad, but thanks to my "friend" spoiling the scene, it didn't have the impact on me that it would have done had I gone in blind.
I wish she didn't know the camera was there, would've seen a much more genuine reaction
Honestly, same
Shall I give you despair?
Man my 13 year old heart was broken all the way through
And I _just_ bought a new staff for her for when she comes back from the forest :(
Man, the second playthrough with the loli Aeris flashback scene is gonna suuuck. "You hear voices don't you?" "NO I DON'T, THEY'RE LYING, MOMMY!"
Still hurts to this day
My peeps that was me genuine and my younger self would have hugged her saying we're going to get him
