Dude this moment right here is a dream come true for me as a long time FF7 Fan... I was shaking non stop the entire final chapter of the game. What an amazing game...
I disagree but I can't deny that Rebirth is the best final fantasy to ever grace gaming since FFXII. It's a good game but I'll wait the third chapter to judge the writing.
@@ItsMeBarnaby definition of fan service which is usually bad for the quality of writing. Zack should've stayed in Crisis Core but I'm not the one writing so let's see what they do in part 3
Let me put it like this: I never played any of the FF7 spinoff games. Remake was my first experience with the FF7 world/story, though I was vaguely familiar with the story beats. I played the original after beating Remake and picked up Rebirth the day it came out. And even I knew how god damn special this moment was.
I fucking love sepiroths little smirk seeing Zack and clod standing beside eachother probably thinking “do I just spoil both of their confusions or molly wop them?”
One thing people fail to realize is that when Cloud and Zack are fighting back to back, they hold a buster sword. They are literally using the same sword. Cloud took Zack's sword in his timeline, but Zack never lost it in his meaning they both wield it in their own timelines. Now that they are interconnected in that fight, they are both wielding it meaning they are literally using the same sword. Not copies, not similar, identical, or replicas. It's literally the same. Blows my mind with this kind of stuff
Guys who played Crisis Core and went to this definitely enjoyed this moment, especially the Angeal's motto "Embrace your dreams...and whatever happens... protect your honor as a SOLDIER!"
Zack with the actual sword from he's glory days in crisis core made me teary, i know this is a zack variant but it's still him no matter what universe or timeline he existed... It brought me back to remembering my childhood as i was playing crisis core
I really wish they waited till the last game because cloud's mind is still messed up. He hasnt grown as a character yet so he wont truly appreciate zack being there. Not to mention the ending kinda ruining that much needed sadness that cloud grows from yet again. Idk i get the fan service but in service to cloud a lot is lost and im wondering whats going to be the reason for cloud to grow because these traumatic losses are necessary for him to be the man hes supposed to be and accept himself.
The traumatic loss is him coming to terms with his entire life being a lie. He realizes Aerith is truly dead and has to accept she can’t be with them anymore.
@@soul6733I don’t think he’s in denial, more like he feels comfort knowing areith is still here in some kind of way. And I don’t think him seeing her ghost is some kind of delusion, bro’s brain can perceive two realities at once for a reason I still don’t understand lol
I hope Zack takes a larger role in the 3rd story, cuz he pretty much symbolized 'hope' in Rebirth, where Cloud is going into a dark place. As a Crisis Core fanboy, I hope Cloud turns into the final boss and Zack becomes the protagonist.
Seeing Cloud use anything besides the Buster Sword, especially in this scene with Zack around just feels wrong. Unless it’s the Ultima Weapon but that’s not around yet, gotta wait for the final game.
I want the alternate ending, Where Seph drops in on Chadley, cutting him off at "Cloud!...". Then when Zack and Cloud "save catching up for later", sephiroth never shows up, and it's a 1v1 for Aerith
It's also because of the expectation being put as a content creator because if you don't react at all people will be like "this bitch doesn't understand how epic this was" or "mf didn't add anything at all what was he even playing the game for then"
Same. I'm dead silent when these moments happen. I express later after I've processed it. I know some people naturally react right away, and these streamers are sorta paid to do so, but I feel they miss so many details. And I dunno if they truly get to enjoy the spectacle.
I don't think most of them are doing it for views... I played it alone in my house with no one, and I still screamed and freaked out. This is just who I am, I react to stuff, and I can't stay silent. Different people do different stuff
The game may have failed at its most critical moment. But this whole story better end on the highest of notes. A true miracle better come in the last installment.
It failed only as so far as to focus less on the shock value of Aeriths death and more on doubling down on other elements like Clouds Mental Illness and the fact he can communicate with Aerith after death(like you see at the end of OG and Advent Children) That's just an OG fans 2 cents
What would Genesis have to do with this fight? Don't getme wrong, I love the guy, but he'd just clutter this battle. And what side would he even be on?
@@LampyGames The dude Platinum’d Crisis Core, despite hating the game and Zack, and he only had like 3 Platinum trophies total in his life lol. I don’t know what his deal is lmao.
🤢🤮People just want fan service these days... Is it cool? Yes, but it's not FF VII. If they had done an epic battle with Cloud and Zack joining forces in a flashback, it could even be fan service, but at least it would be consistent with the Lore.
At what point is this not consistent with the lore? The lore has always been these group of fighters try and save the planet from Jenova. Given that the Lifestream is extremely powerful, and Jenova is as well, it lends itself to a lot of content. I mean there is literally TIME MATERIA in the game suggesting that the lifestream, if harnessed in the right way, could functionally turn back time or split off.
@@codynoth4183 No, it's not part of the Lore, the myths of that universe and what Final Fantasy VII is about, sorry. Never, in any game, in the film or in any animation, was it mentioned or pointed out that there are dementors, time travel, multiverse, etc. Using Time Materia to support this is pushing the envelope. In fact, don't get me wrong, although I'm disappointed with this, the rest of the game, where it is faithful to or expands on the OG lore, is fantastic.
@@JohnDoe-xf7ve Which is about 95% of the game itself. The Whispers are clearly another form of Weapon in this game. Just because the OG game had Diamond, Ruby, Emerald and the other Weapons present does not mean that they are the only form of defense the planet has. Also, and by all means I could be wrong, but Bugenhagen in the original states that the lifestream itself exists out of time and space, suggesting that the lifestream itself is capable of such shinnanigans.
@@JohnDoe-xf7ve you "DO" realize the creators said they always wanted to do this, but the lack of technology held them back, right? Also those aren't dementors. 😂
I'm so glad I had the Buster sword equipped for this
Double buster swords bro!
I feel bad for anyone who cares about lore and didn't have Buster Sword equipped.
I also had buster sword equipped, and I am SO GLAD I did.
@@TK-421_66 I care about the lore of this game, I have a lot of affection for it. I found this scene ridiculous. lol
Always. It's our legacy
Never related closer to Zack then when he said “what the hell is going on”
Activating Combat Mode!
i rlly played this sound in my head when the fight started with zack lmao
Problem solved !
Bro if they did that in the game I would have lost my mind.
Problem resolved
"Conflict resolved."
5:04 Thanks for including me in this!!! LOL
Dude your reaction was the best “ you killed OUR girlfriend”😂
This game is such a fan service, loving it so far.
Been dreaming this since crisis core psp.
I just wish the team up was longer
its more than fan service, its not that simple
Dude this moment right here is a dream come true for me as a long time FF7 Fan... I was shaking non stop the entire final chapter of the game. What an amazing game...
kinda gay
@@williamalbatross4677 like your dad.
And this is why a lot of fans are okay with the expanded new stuff. Its crazy things. That are also done well.
For real ❤
I disagree but I can't deny that Rebirth is the best final fantasy to ever grace gaming since FFXII. It's a good game but I'll wait the third chapter to judge the writing.
If I get more Zack I don't care if it makes any sense.
@@ItsMeBarnaby definition of fan service which is usually bad for the quality of writing. Zack should've stayed in Crisis Core but I'm not the one writing so let's see what they do in part 3
exactly
Let me put it like this:

I played the original after beating Remake and picked up Rebirth the day it came out.
And even I knew how god damn special this moment was.
“You killed OUR girlfriend bro!” both had me dead at the same time double double-motivated!
I did not expect to be in this! 😂

When I first saw this, I dropped my controller and was in complete aw, I remember saying "Wait, WE DOING THIS NOW? ARE WE ACTUALLY DOING THIS NOW?!!"
THIS can be actually called "final fantasy" when you saw cloud and zack meet each other again.😱😭
Would be nice if theres a mashup of people's reaction to the Soldiers' Honor synergy attack
I worry for Sarahkey's health when she gets to this point.
RogersBase’s reaction to this is amazing!
This is the duo fight fans are looking for, holy hell.
'You killed *OUR* girlfriend' cracked me up
For sure. I thought Aruuu would have the biggest one. Slightly disappointed haha. I remember how emotional she was after Remake.
Guys who played Crisis Core and went to this definitely enjoyed this moment, especially the Angeal's motto
"Embrace your dreams...and whatever happens... protect your honor as a SOLDIER!"
Lazboi is that one asshole that just can't understand that good stories can have fan service and be good at the same time.
But he was enjoying it? Or at least that's how it seemed. How'd you draw that conclusion?
@@_XVIII_ he might of enjoyed the zack/cloud scene but he didnt enjoy the game. after he finished the game he talked about how much he hated it.
@@augustmd9382 A lot of people saying this because the game forced them to get good at it 😂.
And you're that one asshole that insists people be totally uncritical or else they're toxic.
I was wearing my underwear.
WAS.
This is the Hypest moment in videos games I’ve had in years!
So wholesome.
I really really hope zack joins up on the next game
It will
The best thing what they’ve done , Zack and Cloud combined is absolute awesome
Great minds!
Angeal and Genesis are With them in Spirit
Im so happy i equipped my buster sword for the final battle
Zack with the actual sword from he's glory days in crisis core made me teary, i know this is a zack variant but it's still him no matter what universe or timeline he existed...
It brought me back to remembering my childhood as i was playing crisis core
Can’t wait til we see Max’s reaction
まじ最高
Activating Combat Mode, Player 2 has entered the game!
RogersBase is such a legend.
Who else wants this again in the third?!
I really wish they waited till the last game because cloud's mind is still messed up. He hasnt grown as a character yet so he wont truly appreciate zack being there. Not to mention the ending kinda ruining that much needed sadness that cloud grows from yet again.

The traumatic loss is him coming to terms with his entire life being a lie. He realizes Aerith is truly dead and has to accept she can’t be with them anymore.
@@yagirlmayalazarus6713 he hasnt experienced that yet so seeing zack doesn't feel earned.
Not really. Cloud if anything is in complete denial by the end of the game and blocked out some of his memories too.
@@soul6733I don’t think he’s in denial, more like he feels comfort knowing areith is still here in some kind of way. And I don’t think him seeing her ghost is some kind of delusion, bro’s brain can perceive two realities at once for a reason I still don’t understand lol
Zack is such a bro, he has no idea where he is or what's going on but he sees Cloud fighting Sephiroth and he's just like "Screw it, I'm in"
Some reactions are so over the Top. Especially the dude called "Ottomobile" at the end it looked he had a stroke or came in his pants
That's all streamers, gotta scream and be over the top because it "gets views".
EMBRACE YOUR DREAMS!
AND.... WHATEVER HAPPENS
PROTECT YOUR HONOR AS SOLDIER!!!!!
@@Stevenjohe COME AND GET IT!!
do a reaction mashup of aerith helping cloud in the last battle of sephiroth and sephiroth new version of one winged angel
Activating Combat Mode
I hope Zack takes a larger role in the 3rd story, cuz he pretty much symbolized 'hope' in Rebirth, where Cloud is going into a dark place. As a Crisis Core fanboy, I hope Cloud turns into the final boss and Zack becomes the protagonist.
Now imagine Angeal and Genesis joining sephiroth in the next sequel as the endgame. Maybe even one of chadleys combat simulator
Seeing Cloud use anything besides the Buster Sword, especially in this scene with Zack around just feels wrong. Unless it’s the Ultima Weapon but that’s not around yet, gotta wait for the final game.
Man that music was just ridiculous for this fight
People dont get us gamers, This is our joy our oasis
The 2nd one came so hard
Yep this game is officially kingdom
Hearts I like kingdom hearts so it’s cool with me but I know a lot of purist are pissed.
Hehehe, i like this Series.
HMK going "game of the year!" in this scene is so relatable
I want the alternate ending, Where Seph drops in on Chadley, cutting him off at "Cloud!...". Then when Zack and Cloud "save catching up for later", sephiroth never shows up, and it's a 1v1 for Aerith
😂
I know people are different, but for me it feels sad that they have to react to moments like these instead of taking them in
It's also because of the expectation being put as a content creator because if you don't react at all people will be like "this bitch doesn't understand how epic this was" or "mf didn't add anything at all what was he even playing the game for then"

Aruuus reaction looked so fake, like her Tekken skills 😋
I dont understand why this is such a big deal
The game may have failed at its most critical moment. But this whole story better end on the highest of notes. A true miracle better come in the last installment.
It failed only as so far as to focus less on the shock value of Aeriths death and more on doubling down on other elements like Clouds Mental Illness and the fact he can communicate with Aerith after death(like you see at the end of OG and Advent Children)
That's just an OG fans 2 cents
Imagine if they saved Genesis for this Boss fight.
What would Genesis have to do with this fight? Don't getme wrong, I love the guy, but he'd just clutter this battle. And what side would he even be on?
@@kirara2516Yeah. He will likely be in Part 3 on some level. Mideel is in the same area as Banora, so if hes going to appear...it'll be there.
People really cant stand that this is canon, huh?
Man why do people put fucvking spoiler in their Thumbnail?!?!
Clicks/views
Lazbois reaction to this is so annoying lmao. At that point just turn off the game if youre gonna whine this much
too many whiners these days cant just enjoy fun things, its a game and fantasy game at that it.
I was shocked to see him in this, lol. I wasn’t even expecting him to play this game, let alone finish it.
@dalymufc I get not enjoying a game, or even finishing a game just to finish it. But he looked like he enjoyed shitting on it
@@LampyGames The dude Platinum’d Crisis Core, despite hating the game and Zack, and he only had like 3 Platinum trophies total in his life lol. I don’t know what his deal is lmao.
He made hating Zack his whole personality.
