What was the most memorable part of Final Fantasy VII Remake to you?

I thinks its about time. We need a porn parody of FF VII. There are 2 ways:
1. Aerith, Tifa, Cloud and Sefiroth in a group sex. I think this is easier.
2. The other is that Aerith is the antagonist. She is a fucking nymph and sucks the life force out of everyone that she can get her hands on. The only way to defeat her is to keep fucking her really hard until she orgasms and then hit her even harder when that happens. Otherwise, she is immune to all physical and magical attacks. The problem is that no one can last fucking her long enough to make her orgasm and has his life force taken out. So, Sephiroth falls into the life stream and becomes super human, now he has almost infinite life force inside of him. He then teams up with Cloud and they do a threesome with Aerith. Sephrith fucks her from behind and Cloud from the front, Aerith keeps sucking their life force by making them cum again and again but the two are absolutely adamane to make her cum and defeat her. Cloud dies in the process and Tia takes his place to keep kissing her aggressively and sucking her toungue and letting her eat her pussy, Sephiroth almost passes out but eventually Aerith is made to cum with such a wonderful orgasm that her soul departs from her body and the story ends. What do you think about that?
Probably Biggs being played by Charlie Sheen from Platoon and Barrett being voiced by Mr T
"Cloud receives a signal from Jessie to enter through the back door."
I wish they would have hooked up... I guess I'll have to wait for Final Fantasy 7 Remake an XXX Parody to come out.
Arnold Galinato I’m looking out for it on xvideos, the tifa content on there is pretty good until then
Wtf?
Enter jessies "back door"
@@raregrimebeats1352 lol
How much of the script was: "Cloud suffers another mental lapse"
and "X fell from the roof but was saved by Y" :D
Cloud actually suffers a few mental lapse in the original, but it was just a random... blackout or fade with like a line of text lol
@@jacquelinechong6880 there were a few longer cut scenes where he had long conversations. One that leads into the intro to aerith in the original and another later in the game, its assumed hes speaking with sephiroth/genova cells though.
And how bout those ghost things eh
In the original, cloud loses his mind when he falls into the life stream, and tifa and cloud have to do some inception type shit to wake him up.
You deserve so much praise for the time and effort you put into this video. The least I do is thumbs up.
Thanks man, really appreciate the praise!
I shall join you in your cause brother, let's support this guy, we must help him be a successful CZcamsr
@@Xygor Dude you are a legend. Hope you reach 1mil Subscribers soon!
This is the best recap i have ever seen. I didnt want to watch 12 hours of cutscenes or replay the whole game, and most recaps skip over tons of important stuff. This recap legit included everything so i can pick up where I left off with my memory refreshed completely.
Glad it helped!
@@Xygor I also like how you include the chapters and what's going on on screen, that format is the best.
I hadn't completely finished ff7 remake and left off on chapter 14, so I was going to watch the cutscenes to catch up before continuing, but I would have to watch 10 hours of cutscenes 💀, then I found your video after watching a few quicker recaps which I felt didn't do enough. Your video made it really easy to refresh my memory, and made it easy to find certain Waifu moments or important emotional beats I wanted to watch the cutscenes for. So yeah huge help actually.
Great game, loved it! Time to replay on hard now!
Few things to note about this video though:
1. After Jenova is defeated, Sephiroth picks up Jenova from the floor, not Marco.
2. Barret was stabbed and would have died, but a Whisper revives him as (quoting Red XIII) "This death was not the one ordained for you by fate"
3. Tseng has no response because it appears that he cannot see them.
Obviously he had never played the original game and couldn't see that barret did die but was revived by the whispers because it wasn't what fate ordained , as barret never died in the original
29:21 That scene can also have Aerith visit Cloud in a dream and warn him not to fall in love with her, telling him that everyone dies sooner or later.
Barret too has a scene
Can confirm! I got aerith for my gameplay! I believe it depends on a few actions you do prior? Like if I am correct, based on the walk-through I read, it said that for example who you go to help after ending up in the sewers it gives you who is in the dream. Not sure how barret ends up. I think if you are picking less romantic choices per se, to Tifa or aerith?
@@annadziekonska7366 I think that - like in the original _FFVII_ - there's a few points where choices you make can determine what dream you get, and who joins you in the final battle.
@@AschaVovina yepp! I sadly don't remember the exact stuff you need to do to get who for the dream sequence (I have the memory of a goldfish lol) but its nice to see little things like that added into the game ^_^
I have yet to try the original but I may in the future!
What about the cait shit, who is that cat?
“Her” refers to the planet, not Aerith. The Japanese version explained plainly how lives cycle/loop in the planet, somehow the English version made the last chapter overly convoluted....
Magically disabled? Sephiroth straight up murdered him. XD It's only because the Whispers healed him, that he's still alive.
This as such a well put together video. I finally finished the game, and while I understand some people have problems with the ending, let's just see where it goes. I have to say, my favorite part of the game is Chapter 8 when you meet up with Aerith again, walking on top of the building. So much great character development! Thanks again!
Thank you so much for the work you did here. Straight to the point, a recap with all the important story beats and none of the excessive cutscenes. Should be mandatory to watch this before diving into Rebirth. Fantastic job!
This was chill to watch at 1 in the morning
I love how I was waiting for this video after watching your complete FFVII story video several times.
It's like magic!
Xygor Gaming good job u deserve praise as most are saying
This video was great for coming back to the game after a year break! Thanks a lot.
I am replaying Remake and discovered your video so my bf can understand the plot while I play. We now have watched several of your videos an can I say thank you for keeping to the point, discussing the plots as a whole in order, and being very thorough without side tracking. Love the videos. Keep it up.
You don’t have a bf stop lying
Thank you so much bro, I stopped playing this game for months and I totally forgot everything, I needed this refreshment 🤙🏻 , excellent job buddy 👍🏻
8:39 Cloud tells Johny to get out of town and stay safe. Captions: “You want to live, get the hell out of this town.”
The way of Cloud
Broo this video is pure quality, the way the game footage plays as you tell the story is perfect. Thanks for the video 👊🏼
Glad you enjoyed it!
BRO! Your unbiased recap is invaluable. Thank you so much for doing this. Much appreciated!
This was really well done. good job
You got the Tifa scene :) ! I had Aerith's Scene (Dream sequence) before they left to rescue her! Thanks for the vid!!
Peachy Pisa you can get alternate scenes with one of the three companions, depending on Cloud’s actions during the previous chapters
@@Ubernerd3000 Yup! Tifa, Aerith and Barret :)
Fantastic work on this. I watched your video on the story of the original, unexpectedly, all the way through yesterday. Thank you for the awesome content! It definitely helps to improve my experience with the game.
Thanks!
That was great. I had so many flashbacks to the original. They sure did this game justice. You created a awesome vid.
Thank you very much!
Agreed! Game was too good
Same, then chapter 18 went off the rails 🤣
@@Vagabond_G than you look at the game director and completely understanding the ending when you discover he is the game director of KHs series
where has your channel been my entire youtube life?! You do a amazing job of really getting the "meat and potatos" of these massively complex games explained. Its hard to describe Final Fantasy(or any complex rpg) plots to people without sounding like a ranting lunatic. you loose people really quick and they do what i like to call "the batman" which is when you start explaining why its so good and they in about 2 minutes somehow disappear when you blink or turn your head for a second. You sir are very good at this craft......
explaining these games, not the batman trick....
Glad you like it! There will be more to come!
I bv i
This conclusion make me think how epic this story and game is! I had so much fun playing it, one of the best PS4 experiences for suite! Cannot wait for the next part!
You missed the part when Sephiroth mentions a 7 seconds...
and Zack arrives at Midgar some days or weeks ago, not some years.
and this Sephiroth seemst to be from a distand future.
@@GonGonRe and so is aerith, hence the ghosts preserving the timeline, from both aeriths meddling, and sephiroths. In RM both Aerith and Sephiroth are from another timeline, thus we have the memories that keep being dumped into the other characters minds. Memories of meteor, aeriths death.. ect.
@@crisnmaryfam7344 possible but where is the aerith from this timeline? The sephiroth from the future is a spirit that connect himself to cloud, so he can se some future events. Maybe aerith is just reading the memory's from the whispers. The whispers are also spirits from the future. Maybe the spirit from future aerith talks to her past self. But I don't think that the living aerith came from the future. Cause there was no living aerith. Did you have some more details from the books?
@@GonGonRe I believe it is just the one Aerith. Bit this Aerith has more information that she says the whispers take away each time they touch her
@@Heidelmann Yes, that is explaind in the Game
You have great vid shares. Dialogue and full story of this great game. Thanks!
Thank you!
It seems clear to me that your playthrough had you playing favorites with Tifa! As the scene in chapter 14 can be different depending on story choices. Also affects the order that they join in the final battle!
Yup, I've got Aerith on Cloud's dream and in the end Aerith saves Cloud from the rubble.
I always use tifa bc she is my powerhouse, using uppercut and divekick
@@saudagarsantun3753 try the high luck and dex build, she is a machine gun of critical hits, its insanely powerful and amazingly good fun to play as.
Great video, always such a pleasure to hear you narrate the story. The ending of the game left me so confused. I think they will make major changes in the plot going forward. Probably so that they wont have to remake so much content that was in the original game.
Barett actually died but since whispers keep the fate steady (fate being the plot of the original game, where barett didn't die there), hence the whisper brought him back to life
41:05 Destiny comes, But to explain that, we need to talk about
P A R A L L E L U N I V E R S E S
Hopefully they'll continue to make more games and movies with the original ff7 gang! Bring back Genesis, Kadaj, Zack Square Enix!!
Also want to see more of Vincent Valentine.
I can't be the only one confused throughout the entire game... right?
dude Sephiroth was picking up the headless jenova in that scene after killing the pres, when he jumps from the roof you see he was actually Marco manifested as sephiroth as hes got the tattoo (not the body being carried)
So aka jenova
I agree. Although the game should have made a better effort to show it. Jenova is not developped enough.
@@aegisxiii2384 she is in the original. Thats what this game is playing mostly off of.
@@aegisxiii2384 if you dont know alot about her play the original or look a video up
@@XDarksoulX1129 I know everything there is to know. But I am looking at the remake with the eye of a newcomer. How understandable is it for these people?
Awsome video man keep doing what you’re doing
Great video. Takes me back.
This was an excellent recap, thank you. Am I the only one that found it funny how you casually explained some of the over the top action/story beats.
Glad you enjoyed it!
i stopped playing half way through and wanted to go back and finish it, this was very helpful for remembering the story
Thank you very much for making this, it was the refresh I needed :)
Glad it was helpful!
I originally played final Fantasy 7 on the PC. I did have a strategy guide with me so I could find all the different secrets and had the strategies on how to beat the various weapons. I got my black and my nights of the round materia
Great video Xygor!
This is such a good video man! Thank you so much !!
Glad you like it, many more to come!
Only in chapter 9 so far, but can't wait to watch this once I complete the game.
Why did you do that to yourselff? It's amazing to watch it unfold spoiler free
@@TonyStark-bm9ul I'm still playing! I look forward to watching this video when I complete the game.
Thank you for the video.
Thank you so much for this. As a child I played this played this part of the game a million times and only recently got a PS5 and really couldn’t drag myself through it, even as a remake. Now I’m watching recap videos waiting for the game at midnight! Lol. Work is going to be tough tomorrow!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I do really appreciate this summary
Played the game straight 30 hrs no sleep hahah. Replaying to get platinum trophy now. Can’t wait what happens next. I think they want to change up the story a bit to shock us in a different way in the next game. Nothing wrong with the original but it won’t feel the same knowing what already happened. But who knows if they actually will change it up or keep it similar. Ending wasn’t the best execution though. I take the game for what it is. Loved getting all the characters more fleshed out and exploring midgar. Also for people who have not played the game, try it for yourself. Everyone have their own opinions.
May be next porject ff7 will release on ps5 and ps4 with some upgraded visual and story up to advent children and more story chapter after advent children
How do you beat the house on hard difficulty??? I can’t do it.....
@@cliftonsargent1572 if you haven't beaten it make sure you and aerith have materia for each element and when it's flying just run like hell
I love how even this very informative man couldn't find anything useful stories on the filler chapters
Thanks for the video, need to refresh myself before Rebirth drops
Glad it was helpful!
The Remake is going to end with Zack Fair, Aerith, Cloud, and Tifa having a group hug because they successfully changed fate.
Best recap hands down, watching this before FF7 REBIRTH. I played this game 2 years ago and count it as one of my all time favorites. The story, the immersion, the attachment to the characters, the world building, the music, the gameplay, the visuals... all amazing
Glad it helped!
Amazing job. Amazing channel 👏
awesome rundown
Thank you so much for this!
Glad it was helpful!
Gonna bookmark this one for later as I'm still playing through it. I'm sure it's be just as fantastic as the others!
Thanks for the great content
That was fun. Can't wait for next chapters, if there is any.
No, they ruined the story, locked classic mode to easy mode, and didn't include random battles among many other epic fails.
@@Meop79 fuck random battles
@@Meop79 You really wanted random battles? Seriously?
@@grandmasterjayd1184 no shit. Every game worth playing let's you play the fucking game. This is a strictly worse version of Final Fantasy 13 with an FF7 skin.
@@Meop79 i bet you didn't even play the game. that game is the best FF game in the entire series. I've played every single one so far.
My God the music is SOOO GOOOOD!
Thanks for this! I forgot about the story and i needed it because of ff7 rebirth!
Glad I could help!
I See why people are complaining about the end.... all that with the parallel universe is pretty dumb...
"Whisper Baja-Moot"
Yay, now we have to wait for 10+ years for Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2.
By the way, loved the video!
Great review!!
Thanks for watching!
Your welcome
Thank you so much for this. I tried so hard to get through the game and all I could think was that I wasn't playing a game as much as I was mashing square and gritting my teeth each time the cutscenes came up.
Wait, are there two Clouds, the one with Aerith's group and the one Zack is carrying? I don't get it......I wonder if Advent Children will play a part as well....
0:00 A Remake a popular PlayStation game
1:05 Aerith
And PC.
Can’t wait!!
This is the first final fantasy I’ve ever played . I loved it , but god damn I’m confused . I’d really like to get into this series but like geez it’s like trying to get into the marvel universe without knowing a single thing about it
I am now looking forward for you to cover the remaining games esp the 13 trilogy.
I couldn't get through the game (to slow for my taste) so a quick summary like that is much appreciated. Tyvm !
Glad it helped!
Good video, I like some of the choices they made...
thank you :)
I just can't fucking wait for the next part.
I dont have the time to replay, I greatly appreciate it!!!
Glad you liked it!
I’ll have to wait a year cuz I game on a pc I have been playing ff4,6 with hd mod and 7 with seven heaven and 9 with hd mod. I don’t think I can wait a year like rd2 I really need to experience this game soon. Just glad I get to watch this review so thank you
Thanks man, hope it comes quick!
If you watch the end of FF7 you'll see Aeris praying after holy and the lifestream reach meteor.
This coupled with what has transpired in the remake UNDOUBTABLY tell me that the planet decided to reverse time, and seeing as Aerith is the only person capable of communicating with the planet, she should be privy to this knowledge, and the knowledge of the party.
The whispers I think are the planets way of steering everybody towards a more productive conclusion, one that doesn't result in the total annihilation of the planet
Summary of the ending. Nomura:hippoty hoppity this plot is now my property
Basically, yeah. He doesn't want to just retread the entire plot, and honestly, this was a pretty okay way of telling everybody he's not going to do that while explaining it in-universe at the same time.
Genereaver honestly as long the plot doesn’t become XIII-2 I’m fine, now if wormholes start opening up under our characters feet sending them to alternative timelines then I will kinda be pissed
Wasn’t a fan of the the resurrections and the different timeline plot, imo they should’ve revealed that the whispers were actually the ancients/cetra
Except Nomura barely had anything with the plot...
Rodolphin really? This seems right up Nomura’s ally
Thank you
This video should not be called "the story explained"; it should be called a cutscene recap. Nothing in here discusses the real purpose of the whispers or analyzes the differences between the original game and the remake, nor does it "explain" anything.
Cringe
Another great video! This game was absolutely amazing. They really couldn’t have done a better job. Can’t wait for the next one. I don’t care how many ways they break this game down. I will buy every one
They broke the game. It's a steaming turd in comparison to the original
For once this is a FF game i beat before watching this video and man it was incredible.
I will mention this, i think Yuffie will be a meaningful character in part 2 seeing how Jessie, biggs and wedge were in this game (not one of these 4 was mentioned in his FF7 explained video)
So they arrive in a timeline where zack did not get killed by shinra and now they have a chance to meet soo hopefully will get a aerith and zack reunion
a well made video, you even include some of the theme musics for each chapter.
about the ending.. its really come out of nowhere, all of a sudden we were faced with the option of defying "fate". as i figure what fate means here is the original game timeline, so from that point onwards, its gonna be completely different from the original game. its also kinda cool that only sephiroth and aerith knows what's going on. i guess it must be because of their connection to the planet since aerith is an ancient, and sephiroth drown inside the lifestream before all this.
the thing is.. why would they want to change "fate"? for sephiroth, sure, he's gonna die if its according to the original game, but for the party? not really much, its all good. but since its ONLY aerith who know's whats gonna happen, that's also means she know she's gonna die later on. so they killed the whispers and the timeline is completely different now.
for one thing they showed us.. zack is alive in this one, so... we might actually meet him in the next part i hope.
at the end they show the after credit scene from 1997 with Nanaki and his offsprings running towards Midgard 500 years after Meteor and it is stated that this will happen if they fail !
Think about this, at the end we thought we won but in truth our Party accomplishes nothing except delaying their fate
in fact, 500 years after Meteor, humanity no longer exists because the "Planet" saw them as a major plague
After 55 hours in the game i can tell they put a lot of work in it. I don't know how the events in the next part will play out and to tell the truth i'm a little bit frightened, because once you introduce a multy universe kind of thing, you need to be a damn good story writter in order to make it work and maintain a coherent narrative, otherwise your story becomes a mess that noone can understand. I also don't know how the pre-existing story we all know and the old characters, yet to be seen in the remake (Cid, Vincent etc) will fit in this new line of events but i hope SE has a plan. Apart from the story, this game had the best battle system ever to be seen in a modern FF game. It was perfectly balanced, strategic, challenging and deep enough but not tiring. I'd be absolutely satisfied even if they will not add anything else in the next parts in terms of battle. You have different weapons in order to customise each character according to your liking, lots of materia to use and combine, weapon upgrades, skill proficiency, staggering system and summons, all in perfect harmony. Anything more will ruin the balance and make it tiring. This battle system had a Final Fantasy identity that fits as the evolution of the old turn-based system. Trully loved it.
Today I learned greedy corporate suit types bleed smoke.
I remember playing the original in JP, unable to read anything. Over time I picked up enough to figure out the menu and combat system. FF7 and FFT were among my most played games back in the 90s, despite never fully understanding the story.
While I wait for PC release on remake, I watch videos. So, thank you for this story summary.
EDIT: At the time I didn't know English, and JP games took up to two years to release in PAL versions, if they even did. I decided to not wait for something that may or may not release in Europe. That is why I played them all in JP.
43:30 It changes with part members. The fourth and fifth members will always be last. (My first playthrough Red XIII and Tifa were late)
same! boy was I happy to have Aerith on this fight 😂😂😂 she saved my ass so many times hahahaha
Nice 👍
Thank you!! Please do this for the next FF7 remake part 2
Thankyou. Unfortunately this is as close as I'm getting to play it
This is....so good. T’ok
Thanks son.
Magus theme !! I miss 90s JRPGs
an old story that is unknown now too. So many questions, do we have a new timeline or an alternate reality the gang will never cross? Too bad these questions wont be answered. Still was a fun game though, but to demand more is to wonder if destiny will that kind.
@Xygor Gaming We were told that the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII would not be in the remake....we were wrong.
Your best girl is Tifa 😄 Chapter 14 Scene can be with Tifa, Barret or Aerith depending on your choices.
So the whisps were to keep the party along the plot of the original ff7? Then they crossed into an alternate timeline where Zack lived and there are 2 clouds?
Where can i find the 2x thumbs up ☝ option. Great content. Good job
I think i might play final fantasy
Joas Hendriksen do itttt
Albel Valentine its just all so confusing and i dont know if i will het the storyline. If i dont, i just threw away €60
Good choice!
Love this game
Not bad but you left a few key details out (possibly purposefully im not sure) such as, bits in the convo between cloud and Sephiroth at the end that allude to Sephiroth not being able to kill Cloud and vice verse "yet" , that leads into the "Lets defy destiny together" proposition. Theres a few other implied and foreshadowing stuff you skipped over, but again it may have been done on purpose to preserve possible watchers "spoilers" though with a video like this it should come with the territory.
i feel like this is going to be a different final fantasy 7. after they crossed before fighting the whispers, they did mention this is the crossroads. and when they did and killed each of the 3 bosses. cloud kept seeing the future that never happened yet and he remembers. after that, zack survived. they altered the future after they crossed that path. i think zack will be alive in the 2nd part. when they return to midgae somewhere theyll meet but zack wont know the alternate universe... i think
i've watched this, i've watched the original game movie, i've watched the remake movie. i still do not understand a ton of stuff. it feels so broken, so out of place... and nonsensical. for a game that is praised for its well made narrative, i honestly cannot make heads and tails out of it O_O
They should’ve remade it right after advent children. Waited too long and added way to much extra bs
There’s movies?
