The real Sephiroth's consciousness merged with Jenova's in the lifestream, and he's able to project himself through Jenova's projection of himself. So TECHNICALLY the real Sephiroth speaks through that. While his physical, original body isn't there, he's still there mentally.

Didn't the real Sephiroth ask cloud who he was? Like he didn't recognize him?

@@zacryan7651 That was Jenova. The real Sephiroth is in the North Crater dormant the entire game until you fight him at the very end.

Actually, after the whirlwind maze, in the northern cave, just before Cloud loses it and gives the black materia to the real Sephiroth encrusted in materia, there is some brief dialogue written in red, on a white screen, that says "Come on, the black materia..." I'm pretty sure it's Sephiroth mentally speaking to Cloud.

And then we have Remake Sephiroth who doesn’t stfu lol

Best game ever imo.

I feel like the 8 casts, walking and running with you would probably be challenging, as person with a very very little knowledge and also suck at school on programming.

they better at least have us be able to skip his super nova

@@idontwannatypeanameno, unskippable 3 minute long pre-rendered cutscene supernova

I could see them make supernova a one-time attack, for a change between phases of the fight or something

@@BigBoo64 they better not have sephiroth cast supernova 20 times

If all life joins together as a ‘collective consciousness’, then is it really an afterlife? To me, that just sounds like everyone is completely dead.

@@edmarcamy yea it’s where memories, experiences, and souls come together when you die in the physical world.

Nanaki and Vincent are the only ones alive since Vincent is immortal (he never ages). This is mentioned in On the Way to Smile. Maybe the two of them will go to promise land one day together.

​@edmarcamy In my mind it works as being able to be interconnected in one giant dynamic community. You are still you, but you can communicate thoughts, emotions and intentions on a much more intimate level with other beings in general, allowing a harmonious shared existence.

Welp... me too, I never once forget her since elementary, I am now 36

@@haysnairte4 I'm 39 and it still stings

Half way through the game? That's somewhere on disc 2 right?

@@user-yh9sx7he2d no mate. This is the end of the game.

In advent children which is post ff7 as well

They already messed up a lot of the original dialogue. I'm not saying keep it the same, but keep it the same if you can't make it better lol. I doubt it'll happen.

@@NYCHeavyHitz212 well they did keep the, “I’ll cut ‘em off”, “I’ll rip ‘em off”, and “ I’ll smash ‘em”, so you never know

He takes exactly 31/32 of your health. It’s a magic attack and will never critical, so you don’t ever have to worry about dying to a critical hit. But I think it’s anticlimactic because it’s meant to showcase Cloud’s growth in mental strength, as it’s supposedly a battle of wills. As well as to subvert expectations too I guess.

@@iam4026 Yeah. It would be even pathetic to see Cloud defeating Sephiroth with a normal attack, than the Omni-slash.

I am very embarrassed to say that this happened to me, and I thought it to be so anti-climatic, I re-did the boss fights

This definitely happen to CDawgVA when he streamed himself playing it

In a proper 1v1 Sephiroth would fold Cloud, honestly.

@@ChronoX720yeah, I’ve seen so many people say Cloud is stronger than Sephiroth just because he beat him in AC. But Cloud only did it because he caught Sephiroth off guard from his blades splitting and landed an Omnislash V5. Not to mention, that was literally the only time he did any sort of damage to Sephiroth, and even then Sephiroth didn’t bleed nor was panting. It’s just that because Kadaj’s body sustained too much damage, then Sephiroth had to leave

For sure they will. And it’ll probably turn into a whole 1 on 1 boss fight not just omnislash and game over. With the whole multi world and Zack still existing past the life stream in the remake I’m sure cloud will have sync attacks with him during the fight just like Zack could use with cloud during his part of bizarro sephy in the remake.

Heck, I even grind my ass off making chocobos to get Knights of the Round. Worth it using it against Safer Sephiroth.

I dont'know. Epic game but endng it too short and doesnt explain anything. I prefer FFIX style ending with some arcs closed and characters having happy moments actually! After FFIX there is a nice aftertaste. FFVII is great game, one of the best for itš time. But it did not age too well. But remake rises it to another level, im so happy there are 3 games instead of 1 and the world is so much espanded. Hopefully they will expand ending too.

@@Alexriga What do you mean by "doesn't explain anything" exactly? All the answers are there if you use a bit of critical thinking with the sub-context given to you. It was the first 3D Final Fantasy game and was very experimental for it's time, sure it hasn't aged well graphically but it's story still holds up as one of the greatest in gaming history of all times. The game doesn't hold your hand and give everything (story elements) away all at once like in Remake/Rebirth....it has more subtlety and leaves a lot for the player to figure out on their own, or to question. It still tells it's story very well without force-feeding you everything, it allows to digest and think on things.

@@commandervile394 sure but it lacks logic at times and drags mid game etc. still epic game, I prefer FF9 though :) Rebirth is awesome remake making everything better but it is just IMHO

The limit bar actually corresponds to anger, which taking damage does help to fill it up. But the final 1V1 battle is supposed to show Cloud’s built up anger against Sephiroth anyway

Do you remember how long it took you to beat This game? Because I’m surprised how long FF7 is

nah, thats the planet's core, the only thing that was stopping Holy from activating was Sephiroth himself

@@antonio.3432 figures, silver haired bastard didn't want that type of magic stopping the meteor from impacting Gaia.

Was hoping for it as well😭

just like liquid snake at the end of mgs

So who was in control? Jenova? Sephiroth? Or both?

@@amuroray9115 Since Sephiroth was carrying Jenova's severed head when they were both flung into the lifestream, they merged consciousness. Which means their knowledge and ambitions/intentions were also combined, they shared a mutual goal to inflict mortal damage onto the planet and consume the ensuing energy to transform them into a God. Technically, Jenova's cells were already in Sephiroth when he wasn't even born yet, but Sephiroth also shown to have an extremely strong-willed mind and was able to resist the effect of mako poisoning, which made him the basis for SOLDIER candidates. Because he was so strong-willed, he is able to resist Jenova's grasp on him and act independently. So yes...both were in control, with one never superceding the other.

@@commandervile394 oh I see. thanks.

@@amuroray9115 Anytime.

@@commandervile394I found it weird how the strongest form of Jenova is weaker than Safer Sephiroth, when the former is the latter’s source of strength. Plus, safer Sephiroth is still before he absorbs the massive amount of Mako from his Meteor plan

Well he’s shirtless in his Safer Sephiroth form too, and in the Materia crystal when you find his real body. Technically he probably shouldn’t be wearing pants, but you gotta keep that T rating. And yes he’s very hot.

@@cathygrandstaff1957oh yeah, now I realised his actual body was always shirtless throughout FF7

Always has been.

@@cathygrandstaff1957 he shouldn't have any pants because if you look very closely when Cloud hands Sephiroth the black materia at the promised land, Sephiroth is actually decapitated from the waist down. Which is also why Safer Sephiroth has the angel leg things from the waist down.

Pc steam with mods, check the description

Yeah I bet with the remake part 3 they're gonna do some crazy shit

I love it personally. Leaves a lot up to imagination. They aren’t gonna do this in the remake.

@@SaberRexZealotI guarantee if the OG had a much longer ending, this comment would say “yeah and the remake is gonna rush right through it”

@@SaberRexZealot Yeah back then i did as well but going back to it now is kinda weird. Like you never actually get solid character conclusions, it ends so fast.

Maybe it's the limit. They don't have conclusions... Like Fallout. Aerith joined the lifestream, Tifa married Cloud and runs a business, Barrett, etc etc etc
