    This video struck home SO MUCH for me... I lost my dad to cancer too in the same period. But I remember he always saw me playing this game in his last years. He noticed the MUSIC above all else (he was a musician) and for some reason out of all the games he saw me play, he always sat in the couch and watch me play FFVII because he was so intrigued by its music.
    And now you're focusing just as well on the music, it really reminded me of this bittersweet period where this game gave me comfort and got me through it in a way.
    I really wish the best for your mom and you and Kim... We'll hear from you when you got the time. Until then take all the time you need to process this.
    Take care

    I'm in similar position. My dad is still around but my mom has stage 4 cancer. Breast cancer that metastasized to the liver. Treatment was working but now has multiple tumors growing fast and i fear this is my last year with the best person i know. Art can both give the feeling that it empathizes the pain and distracts from it. As i get older... i realize how short life is and how we have to show and tell the people we love them as much as possible.

    Final Fantasy 7 is a game about loss, and how our characters deal with that loss. Despite being defeated and bested at nearly every point in the game, the ones that live persist until they preserver.
    I don’t think it’s any coincidence that all these years later you get to revisit these characters again. They serve as a great reminder that no matter what we lose, there will always be something worth fighting for.

It resonates with me with my own memories around the time that first game came out.

    I know how you feel, Johnny. I few years back, my mom entered hospice care and I was playing Assassin’s Creed Origins at the time as an escape when everything was feeling overwhelming. A few months later, when she passed away, I was playing Bloodstained. I really feel both games kept me sane in those impossible moments. But I could never go back and replay them now. Not because they’re not worth replaying, they absolutely are, but because they put me right in the mindset I was in-drowning in grief. Games are such an amazing medium. They evoke a wide range of emotions in us and can help us cope with some really heavy issues. Truly wondrous.

    I don't comment much on here. I'm not even a Final Fantasy fan. Never played one. I always watch your uploads, even on titles that doesn't align with my tastes, because of how passionate you are about gaming. I'm working, and have this on in the background, then hear your news about your mom. I immediately stopped working to hear your comments. Life always comes full circle, and sometimes, not in the ways you want it to. It's a blessing and a curse that your passion ties to these memories of both your mother, and father. But your passion will always be there for you when you're ready for it again. I am so sorry to hear about your mom.

    Horrendous game. Combat is the worst it's ever been. Enemies have super armor and can stunlock the player way too easily, and all enemies have broken tracking hitboxes on all their attacks. The lock on doesn't work properly. This is the worst combat i have ever seen in a game. Square Enix somehow made it worst than the first and that was awful too.

    Great review. Sorry to hear about your mother. I lost mine last year while playing Remake. I feel bad for people who don't understand how much a game like this can dictate your outlook on life. There are a few pieces of different media that I can say that about. I played the original FF7 when I was 15-16 and I can honestly say no other game has affected me they way it did. I still tear up when I hear Aerith's theme. All the music is hauntily beautiful. If I could erase my memories of all the great JRPG's I've enjoyed and play them for the 1st time again, I would. I'm very grateful for these remakes as it's letting me experience them again without knowing what will happen exactly.

    Very sorry to hear about the sad news. My Dad and I were very close and he's the reason I got into video games, both as a gamer/collector and into game dev itself. All the NES, SNES and TurboGrafx games were thanks of him. Losing him 17 years ago was the hardest thing and I've never fully recovered. I continue to game and collect because we were best buds and shared in the hobby, it helps me stay connected with him. I know gaming will help keep your love alight for your lost family as well. Thanks for sharing with us. Sending love, game on!

It has stored those amazing childhood memories I carry with me and I feel the same about the remakes. They were made so well it’s almost unbelievable. Thanks for the video!

    Sorry to hear that. I feel for ya bud. My mom passed away 4 years from cancer too. Coincidencely the first time I bet ff7 was during the late 90s. I was playing it with my twin brother who at the time had cancer. Unfortunately he too passed a few months later. It's funny hearing you talk about your time growing up in surrey as I grew up about 20 min away. Keep up the good work. Love the videos. And again sorry to hear about ur mom.

    Sorry to hear about your mom. I lost my mom to cancer too. I remember resident evil 4 had just come out for GameCube. Your story about playing ff7 all those years ago reminded me. Thank you for honesty and passion. I am a person who never beat ff7. I think now is my time to do just that. Thank you for sharing. Wishing you and your family all the best in this terrible time. We will always be here.

    Just stumbled on your channel and I want to say Ilove your content. You have a very positive and open vibe and you truly are driven mir by passion than by the desire to make content that sells well. Truly special. Respect for being so open about the tragedies in your life. Having lost both parents to quite similar circumstances I can totally relate. Stay strong and stay positive! The music in FF7 truly fits such times in life, being sad and hopeful at the same time.

    Thank you so so much for sharing your personal story. My father passed away 3 months ago of cancer, and I just decided to finally buy a PS5 and I’m just into Final Fantasy VII Remake and Rebirth.
    (I played the original one 27 years ago too)

  • @traceries5201
    @traceries5201 Před 3 měsíci

    I rented FF7 from blockbuster many times trying to complete it in my teens so I have nostalgia for the game. I am playing Remake now and enjoying it but probably won’t get to Rebirth until a little later in the year bc I like to switch up genres/styles to avoid getting burnt out. Happy to hear the glowing reviews and that Rebirth is a step up and beyond Remake.
    Re: your personal story, that is heartbreaking and special and wild that one game has existed for you in a similar context. My wife was diagnosed with colon cancer last year and we have just finished with chemo and the follow up surgery and are waiting to hear if the surgery was fully successful. I really relate to how these games can get interwoven into our life experiences with their themes and as escapes or places to channel difficult emotions.
    Wishing you and your family well during this tough time.
