The idea of sitting in a café in 2009 at 28 years old with a psp resonates with me on an immense level

You here

Indeimais u here!?

I can't hear that song without my heart breaking. You know the one.

This is so nice. 2 of my favourite content makers (for wildly different reasons) coming together for one of my favourite game series. I'm a happy man. Merry Xmas Indei

I agree, but that is my concern with Reunion. Story continuity with the FVII Remake. If you know what I'm talking about, you know. Don't want to give anything away.

I’m ready to bawl my eyes out! Enjoy

The side missions were great, did feel pretty addictive; Mission after mission.

Wait, why on Earth would you order it for two consoles? You only need one game for one console to play it through. What's the point in buying it for two separate consoles??????

@@clintferguson6599 cos sometimes I wanna play on PS5 with 60fps and high definition and all that and sometimes I don't care about that and wanna play on tje switch that I can take anywhere. I also still have the psp with this game in it and also play on it as well

im playing it now on switch. i beat it on psp back then. I was excited for this remaster. Yes I cried

Oohhh I had that one. The GameStop rep messed up that year and ended up giving me that PSP for free when I had come to pick up my preorder for just the game.

@@amarcellus1714 Woah, what a great mistake!

indeed....😊

@@amarcellus1714hey messed up my Ni no kuni pre order special edition... the ended up selling all the collectors editions even tho i've preordered it .... I was so damn pissed that day

I know, whenever people talk about consoles, like Dreamcast or whatever, that they wish would’ve survived and continued on in an alternate history, I think of PSP, and this game (alongside being able to play some of the great PS1 games on it, like FFVII, VIII, etc, which looked amazing on that screen) was a big part of that. I used to sit on the couch while my family was at the table eating just playing away at Crisis Core, lol. All of that seems so far away now; Crisis Core, my family actually sitting together, old school gaming. Ahhhh the nostalgiaaaaaa

I replayed the hell out of it. Still own it and my psp. Not liking the updated version (got the switch version) mostly because of the voice actors, character models (Zacks body looks weird and disproportionate), frame rate drop, or the dodge function (it was smoother in the original). Combat is fun (more exiting than the original). New animations and look to combat are great. Overall, I like it less than the original.

The original feel like it ended too soon

@@Ghost7065 it feels like a big improvement over the original just being able to use a controller. I'm impressed how well it's looking running on switch albeit at 30fps. Also with regards to the English voice actors I really agree. Which is why I'm playing in Japanese. I really do not like the new Zack VA.

Serious question. How do people remember that game being so good on the psp?? Ff7 was my favorite game ever and I was super stoked for crisis core but from what I remember it was just walking through copy and paste hallways and then rolling dice to determine what attack or magic you would use. Maybe I didnt give it enough time but I thought it was absolutely horrible.

@@PsychKingler It was the story and the character of Zack mostly!!

When my wife asked if I had a list I just said "Crisis Core Reunion PS5" lol.

How old are you? 15? 😂

@@jordanlalonde2507 I WISH I was 15 again 🤣

Same bro

@@jordanlalonde2507 17

Happy gaming

same here

big same

@@armorvil Its a remaster so ofcause it's going to have most of the original stuff. They also reworked the DMW. You can now store your limit breaks when you get them.

@@armorvil Like what someone else mentioned in someone's (fighting cowbowy's first 2 episodes) playthrough of the game I saw they re-worked the DMW so that you can store the limit breaks to use later when you get them (still need to get the roulette to match) and use them via Triangle...not sure if you can choose which one to use or if you can somehow scroll through the stocked limit breaks or not though as he used them all immediately in said video rather than stocked them up). This at least means we can use them more tactically/when they're more opportune than in the PSP version. Honestly from what I've seen the main reason to buy this version would be more so for the vast improvements to combat than anything else (most actions were taken off of the KH style command menu you scrolled through via L1/R1 and have their own button inputs now)...the graphics, performance, and all while being an 'update' also don't look that great tbh...especially with how the new voices don't sound as good as the OG game, character models have been changed for the worse imo (Zack's face looks fatter, Angeal's face looks like someone squashed it, and Tifa's clothing, if the leaked images weren't faked (haven't seen a playthrough that got to her yet so can't confirm yet), have been redesigned to look bland as fuck and the Ethic's team of course nerfed her chest so she's more or less flat now).

@@armorvil bro they changed the dmv, it's not as tedious as the old version. Play this one before giving an assessment, that's pretty unfair otherwise. Even though yes the game is obviously not perfect. The missions can be very tedious depending on your preference for exemple. The materia system might also not be for everyone. The level ups are not random in this version. There is an exp counter that is invisible but it's there, you can tell because you level up way faster when you fight overleved enemies who can one shot you.

@@maelerose5807That means that it is bad not as good as he said

Sad how grinding is almost a thing of the past now, most modern jrpgs seem to just hand you levels and hold your hand the whole way through now.

I agree with a little grinding. I am one of the few who dont like octopath traveler. I think it could of been a good game. They took the grinding too far. It was to the point of just too much and tedious. So yes that's all it takes for me to say a game is bad. All rpgs have grinding I get it. I'm saying octopath was more grindy then all other rpgs. It was too much. No life level of grinding.

@@G3RM3X617 depends on how you play it. Finish each character's early chapters first before moving to the other chapters - then you won't need to be grinding. Maybe for the final secret boss, yeah

Yeah was thinking the same, I miss that feeling in a lot of newer games. I feel like there's a sweet spot when it comes to grinding, and a lot of games either seem to be so easy there's no point or make it so necessary to progress it becomes a chore.

When I no longer had my PSP, I kept my memory stick with the save file. I used that save file to play on the PSP emulator (PPSSPP) on my PC. 😁

Their chemistry is so forced in this game… Thankfully i amnot the only one who thinks that

Ditto

It is quite an emotional ride. Lol

Honestly it is fucking great to see a different perspective!

Pretty much all of us cried in that ending.. Goodtimes.. definetly will play this again..

What's his wives channel?

Better to play it on the PS5 then the switch?

@@andrenassif7290 I have ordered the PS5 version bud. I love the switch but I am sceptical about it it running well on that hardware.

Same here, Christmas morning will be extra special

@@sephiroth-gaming8894 Same here, I pre-ordered the PS5 version for better quality and I'm glad I dodged a bullet

Same. Always a must watch. His positive energy is infectious and I love all the RPG talk. 😁

@@joeyh31 yup! 😂

Minerva was a tough one and I believe that’s the last mission the reward is ok

@@retrogamerfan123 Yes she definitely was The Divine Slayer is a pretty good item too not sure how many people knew but you could steal 99 Phoenix Downs from her and get infinite money that way

Definitely the only one of the extended series that remotely fits in with the OG 7's narrative...granted the Angeal/Genesis storyline did get weird here and there though but still were well written enough to explain how it related to OG7's plot.

Dirge Of Cerberus deserved it as well.
