  • Most of these have been known for years, others I have never cared to share.
    Obviously, I did not find all of these peculiarities myself.
    Some of these were found by Acro or KartSeven and a whole lot of other people. In fact, if you happen to be fluent in French, you can read about hundreds(!) more of these at ff7.fr .
    Also, you are not really supposed to know any of these unless you are at the height of a powerful obsession with Final Fantasy VII. Actually, I'd be interested in learning how many of these were known to you, so tell me if you don't mind.

    I'm sure there are several chat log secrets, but the one with Cloud and Aerith meeting in the cathedral was funny to me.

You can talk to Reno on the right side behind the door and he'll say something to the effect of "I'll give you two a little more time." Priceless

      You have to say, "with updated graphics" or else they would just sell you the same game you could go download for free. But yes I would also absolutely pay $2000 just to play a remake of this game. It needs updated graphics and voice acting (cool actors please) and the gameplay and storyline need to stay 100% the same. I don't want an alternate path or extra easter eggs. I want the same game from when I was 12, just better. I have a lot of money to put towards it because I love it so much.

I hope they use this in Rebirth to build Yuffie and Aerith's relationship as some of the other party members might not warm up to her (Barrett for sure). Aerith being the one true friend Yuffie has in the group up to that point would be absolutely crushing if she dies again.

    I don't know if this has been mentioned, but I have a little bit of Fort Condor trivia you didn't cover.
    If you deploy only one unit as low as you can, and move him forward until you see the enemy, you can deploy more troops practically right on top of the enemy as they pop on-screen.
    This has another side-effect you might not expect. If you kill all of the enemies on the battlefield, you win the match. This is true, even if the commander hasn't appeared on the battlefield yet.

    In the scene when Sephiroth kills Aeris, the reason he "obtains" gloves is because when they first made that scene, it was set in the Northern cave (Aeris was meant to die in part of the northern cave instead of at the end of disk 1) and when they changed it, the sephiroth they was following had gloves. Also, the floor changes the pattern in that scene... The checkered floor is the Jenova pedestal and the solid colour is the floor of the cave.

    "Spells" like Supernova are so ridiculous it's why I love Final Fantasy. You really have to suspend disbelief.

Also it's implying that this entire game is taking place on Earth and not a fictional planetoid.

      FFIV is confirmed to take place on Earth (as in the 3rd rock from the sun, Earth). The planet in FFVIII is called Earth and in other games, Gaia. If you research the concept of "Sephiroth", which is referenced in Supernova, it is based in our solar system.

    I got one: During the cutscene when you see what REALLY happened at Nibelheim (the one you have with Tifa), the overland music starts playing. During this time you can't press X to skip the dialogue boxes because they appear for fixed amounts of time. This is because the visuals on screen are meant to sync up with the music. Both the scene and music come to a climax with [someone] getting thrown down shaft. Now this isn't particularly fascinating unless your a PAL console gamer... because in the PAL release the music and visuals go completely out of sync (by about 15 seconds). I only picked up on this because i've played both an NTSC and PAL copy of the game.

      Getting stabbed through the abdomen with a sword which is then removed from the wound would be a very quick death, The shock would be almost immediate and the blood loss devastating within minutes. As someone pointed out above the battle which ensues takes around 15 minutes too!

      The original PC version, which for those young ones did come with midi. However, back in the day, if you wanted superior audio quality with lifelike samples, you bought a midi sampler, usually Yamaha, or Roland. Some stuff played through those samplers, are way better than the PS1 music. Everything now adays reverts to MS wavetable, which is horrific.

    I love how each party member has their own unique dialogue during your travels between main story beats. In Yuffie's case I think it added so much to ger personality, She really is an energetic airhead who also kicks ass when things get serious I always have her in my party.
    Her reaction to Aerith's death was heartbreaking, I only got her midway through disc 2 on my first play through but took a liking to her. On my second play through I got her early and that scene sealed the deal, It felt like a character break moment where she shows how much she really cares I think a lot of people misjudge her.

    -101- They're not "Limit Breaks," they're actually just "Limits." If you don't believe me just pay attention to the tutorial. The move is called a Limit, and the Break level refers to filling up the gauge and activating a Limit. When this happens during battle, a message pops up saying "LIMIT BREAK" which simply means "Limit activated" or "Limit available." For almost 20 years we've all been incorrectly calling them Limit Breaks.

    • @Druffmaul
      @Druffmaul Před 8 lety

      There's nothing remotely nonsensical about calling the moves "Limits." Yes, the terms were obviously chosen to allude to being pushed to the breaking point and reaching the limit of what you can take. That's why the mode of activation is called a "break level."

    I used to be one of those people who clamored for a FF7 remake. I'm currently in replaying the game (for about the 8th or 9th time since it's '97 release) and I now feel Square shouldn't do it. A remake would mean building the game from the ground up and given the way Square handles its games now, I feel it would ultimately leave us all disappointed. There are some who would love a more accurate scale of the world map and others who love the map the way it is. Many want to be able to seamlessly walk into towns and places in the world map but I feel that would be a mistake, it'd take away from what made the game great and memorable which the graphics, for better or worse, were a part of. I'd rather them focus on making a new FF that can surpass FF7 instead.

    @NFITC1 Před 10 lety +7

    OK, I finally have an explanation to your 63 about Blade Beam and why it's wrong. Blade Beam is completely Physical, but there are some peculiarities about it that set it apart from any other action.
    To understand this you need to know how the game prioritizes actions. There are five levels of action priorities that are given. When the game determines what action to perform next it looks through the queued actions (there can be up to 100 queued actions) and will assign the first level 0 action to be the next action. If there isn't one it assigns the first level 1 action, etc. Only one action can be going on at one time.
    Now there are three conflicts at work here. First, counters have a higher priority than Limit Breaks. This is so if you have multiple limits queued that counters can still be performed between them. Second, Blade Beam is actually two separate attacks. The wave that Cloud does and the after-shockwave that hits nearby targets. They are both queued as limit actions so in order for the entire limit break to not be interrupted, the first Blade Beam action actually prevents counters from being queued at all until it performs the after-shockwave check which re-enables them. Thirdly, the after-shockwave will not be queued if there is only one enemy. If it is triggered it will actually be considered as having connected with the original target even though it will do no damage or give any indication that it connected. That's the action that triggers the physical counters and will affect the original target. If it doesn't happen, the original target won't initiate a physical counter attack.
    It's different from other chained actions like Satan Slam because Satan Slam doesn't actually queue an additional action, but is chained to a second one and the action is not considered complete until the chain is finished. Actions like Comet2/KoR/Omnislash are singular actions with multiple damage calculations.
    Since I've debunked (or at least explained) your 63rd item I'll propose a new one:
    Damage is actually done before any actor performs an attack animation. As a correlation, targets are actually considered "dead" before the damage indicator shows up. They only perform their death animation as a result of their "damage reaction" animation. Some enemies don't actually die at the end of battle either. Battles end under four conditions:
    1) all enemies have 0 HP and flagged as dead
    2) all allies are either removed from battle or have 0 HP
    3) all enemies' main scripts have been disabled (happens a lot with boss minions and "set pieces" like Ghirofelgo's chain)
    4) no "final attack" actions are queued

    Quadra magic does not work with Kotr because Kotr cost more than your magic pool can handle if you have to cast it 4 times

    This means you will have 9999 MP and 999 HP if you are lv 99 with both super HP and super MP, and that means that you can cast kotr 8 times in a row. because you will have the needed 2000 MP needed for it.

    #34. I'm not quite sure what you meant on this one. If by "respawn" you meant where he flies after taking some damage, then this is incorrect. There are plenty of places for him to fly to before Cosmo Canyon that aren't the Junon crater.

    What fascinates me with this game is that we clearly showed a world where corporatocracy dominates the world and destroys it with pollution ... the same thing is now happening on earth ..

    This video doesn't even touch on the fact that you can resurrect Aeris with four tissues and a Mastered revive materia. It's also the reason that you can't sell Cloud's basic buster sword - Because it's essential for this.

    there is so much variability in this game
    i think its important to note, back before the internet and guides
    ff7 was a game you learned secrets via word of mouth
    for example the chance of getting Beta enemy skill
    randomly with out knowing, its possible but very very unlikely
    and then to even survive, totally small chance, But its still possible
    and if you are able to share that secret, back in the day
    that'd spread like fire. everytime you replay this game
    you find a new discover and new little thing
    Every single time i play it, there is always something i didn't know before
    thats what makes this game Great
    replay value is just sooo high

    Playing this game for the first time completely changed my view on video games. Never before or after had I been so deeply invested in pixelated characters and their made up world. Even after so many years cosmo canyon song sends chills lol

      lol is that your idea of constructive criticism or do you like to just state the obvious? Ya know what would have really made the video shorter? Forget having any game play at all and just make a huge wall of txt scrolling down telling us the things we didn't know about FF7. Or just skip it entirely and just have a 5 second message telling us how stupid we are and just to go play the god damn game

      Michael Haynes Constructive criticism. I thought this vid would be great to watch, but after the first couple minutes I noticed how much filler could have been snipped out. There's no way I'm watching this thing. And it definitely doesn't help that the gameplay is slowed down too. Watching knights of the round in slow motion isn't how I want to spend my time.

    @0saintclark0 Před 9 lety +4

    Doesn't W-summon use a summon magic twice? And then you can use mime, on the other 2 characters, which means you can chain 6 knights of the round together in 3 moves.
    Would take forever though.
    Imagine if quadra magic did work on it, in conjunction with mime...that'd be knights of the round 12 times in a row!

    Betty also makes you explore more of Wall Market in search of music. So you're right, she is a child and her quests represent the more playful explorative nature of the game. If you don't do her quests, chances are you are the kind to have skipped all the side quests and wouldn't notice little things anyway.
    James, I watched your stream of the OG FF7, and while you really like the game, some of us are obsessed with it, because we spent time as children checking out every corner and fully explored the game (similar to what a figurative Betty would do) in order to have a deep connection to it.
    If you have time, check out the "100 Things you didn't know about FF7" video to get a glimpse of how much thought went behind this game.

    i would say that the most time consuming portion of a perfect save file is the hundreds of hours in the sunken gelinka morphing for all the sources for all the characters to get capped..
