Truly a battle for the fate of the universe

I CANT BREATHE LMAOOOOOOO

Lmaooo

Considering how this is 100% confirmed Post Advent Children Sephiroth, Black wing and all, very interesting :)

Yeah, same... before playing the game I was quite sure they'd never be able to top what they'd already done with the entire soundtrack. I was very, very wrong.

Didn't Nobuo Uematsu (the series composer from the first FF until the tenth) colaborate on the soundtrack? That could be a reason for the excepcional quality of the remake soundtrack.

@@rodrigor6604 Indeed he did. Though I mean he already laid the bedrock of everything in the original, it just needed a well-done arrangement to go from MIDI to orchestra. Homeboy and the others delivered

advent children's version is still my fave tho for sure

Wait til third phase and it's the death metal remix.

I didn’t even notice that 😂

its really very nice and also very on point with the story and fight, this version is almost has good has AC version bc of that part but at end i miss the punch AC version had

As soon as we pretty much destroyed fate Sepiroth can do whatever he wanted so he definitely feels scary again lol

​@Alucard-mj6yj Many of the purists don't get this. SEs aim is reintroduce what 7 was to those who originally played it. It's meta as hell but I'm here for it

​@Alucard-mj6yj I'm actually scared that because of the phantoms being released and the characters seeing their futures (the original 7 Timeline) Sephiroth basically KNOWS his Future and he's not going to have it repeat.. So he's either being fully determined to Kill Cloud instead of Aerith so that Cloud wouldn't be the one to stop his plan... Your basically fighting someone who knows their future and Defeat...

also in the whisper harbinger themes there's advent (advent children), then rebirth, then something else i dont remember rn

Sephiroth always toys his opponents he also holds back as well if he didn't hold back his power he would be way to powerful

@@SamuelJohnsonYT I think Sephiroth genuinely has a desire to "win over" Cloud to join his cause because to him that would be the ultimate display of domination. It has never been about Cloud being part of the whole or completing JENOVA when it came to Cloud, for Sephiroth. Gaining dominion over someone is an infinitely bigger display of superiority than outright killing them and Sephiroth's mission is one of narcissism guised under pretense of "motherly" love.

@@Zinaroth okay

@@SamuelJohnsonYT I am sorry I didn't realize you were only interested in reading your own words.

@@Zinaroth cool don't care asshole I'm guessing your parents didn't love you

When I was playing on Hard Mode for the first time, after Chapter 2, I always made sure to prepare myself. On both Normal and Hard difficulties, I managed to beat the Final Bosses on my first try. I've gotten used to the minor tactical combat of this game that I was always careful. Sephiroth was the only boss I beat on my first try, however I still came close to dying a few times if I decided not to do smart moves like heal or make sure Aerith is far away from the enemy at all times and if the enemies are going after Aerith then switch to a different character. Sephiroth was the best boss of this entire game and a pretty balanced difficult like boss as long as you're not charging like a maniac. Funny (but also epic) Story For Hard Mode, I saved my Summon and Limit Breaks for Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith until his final phase where he summons that Meteor that'll one hit kill everyone if you don't hurry. When I was close to his final phase I summoned Behumot. When his final phase started, I used Aerith's Limit to make a shield for the entire party before I got Cloud and Tifa close to Sephiroth and use their Limits on him. Surprisingly, using both Limits killed him in seconds. In case the Limits weren't enough to take him down, I was gonna wait until Behumot used his Mega Flare when the Summon Gauge was empty. But nope, I ripped through his final phase with Cloud and Tifa's Limit Break. After beating Hard Mode, I got the Platinum Trophy. I loved the Remake better than the OG due to its combat, I'm not a turn based combat guy.

@@dawnstar9557 Honestly I'm also not a huge fan of turn based either with persona being the only exception! That being said however I am also a huge fan of the remake I thought they took a massive risk and it paid off extremely well in my personal opinion but of course the original will also always share a special place in my heart nonetheless being a 90's kid lol. What I absolutely love about tifa is how you can break her so easily in regards to her actual skill sets I mean let's use unbridled strength for example you can look at it as a charge then raise hell on the enemies with skills like starshower it not only does huge amounts of damage but also increases Tifa's overall attack power when the enemies are staggered leaving them completely defenceless. I had tifa do most of the stageering with sephiroth and then completely abusing cloud's infinities end skill and then raising absolute hell on him with punisher mode and ascension. I'm a true glutton for punishment and although stressful at times I had one of the best experiences ever on hard mode even though some of the normal battles felt like a huge threat and that's magic which square Enix are so great at implementing into the first part of the remake.

@@Instantramenkun I agree M8 I understand how the OG holds a special place in your heart. I'm a 2000s kid but I feel like under the hood we're pretty close to the same considering how advanced technology is nowadays compared to what we both had back then. I loved that Square Enix isn't using turn based combat on their Final Fantasy games so far, I loved the minor strategy looking combat system they put in the Remake. So far they remained faithful to the OG story without making it too different even with the Ghosts of Fate things. But now that they defeated them, I wonder what's gonna be different from part 2-3. Here's to hoping the rest of the Remake plot remains faithful to the original and not too different. I still want to have the same final boss and ending as the OG. I'm looking forward to fighting Safer Sephiroth in the last entry most of all. I'm happy to finally run into somebody who's also not a turn based combat guy. I want to control everything about the action not take turns and exchange blows with little to no dodging. That's why Undertale is one of my favorite turn based RPG, you get to dodge attacks instead of just stand there.

I would highly recommend playing the original. I literally just finished my playthrough and man does it put a lot of things into context for this game. I plan on replaying the game on hard to catch everything I missed.

The original is more accessible than ever now. If the graphics bounced you off there is a fan made mod that you can easily install with the fan made mod loader 7th Heaven. If the amount of reading threw you off there is the Echo mod that brings in fan voice acting into the game. Its insane how much fan support the original ff7 has now! Totally recommend giving it a try. Especially because this remake series is shaping up to be a sudo sequel to the original games.

I was so disappointed by the "Complete" version of Advent-One Winged Angel. It lacks the strength of the previous AC version.

@@kuronoroux8864 felt the same, drummer needed a redbull

@@kuronoroux8864i actually edited out the extra scenes in complete, it ruined the tempo of the original version, i only swaped the new omini slash efect

Payback for her death in the original…

@@alecher1560 yeah XD

@@nickwerner7983 Yes In the original time line.

You should listen to what he says to her during the fight. "Can you not see your future?" "What hope have you?" "You cannot change it." He knows. She knows. He knows that she knows. And he's rubbing it in.

How fast 😮😮 4:06

Lotta enemies do this. Helps encourage you to bounce from character to character to control the aggro

Whispers theme

@@LETO27362 Thanks bro.

nah this IS the real Sepiroth. He's the same exact Sephiroth from the original. He literally hopped time lines lol

@@gianperez2103 That mean the Sephiroth of this timeline is still in North Crater.

@@xgentis exactly so maybe two sephiroths working together?

@@gianperez2103 I don't know, it's just a theory.

@@xgentis Sephiroth be like : I will never be a memories, I'm your darkness, Cloud, you should Accept me ( with his smirk and laugh a little)

Because of side quests.

If you've completed everything it's randomized who joins you. Otherwise it's based on what you've done and where, but idk specifics because I got everything done

@@finalfantasyfordays127 It's not randomized... it's based on who you had a ''special'' moment with. If you had the Tifa cutscene, she'll appear first. If you had the Aerith cutscene, she'll appear first.

@ShadowHunter31 yes, those are part of it. But not the only factors. Sidequests has to do with it as well as which dress both girls ended up with. But if you've done absolutely everything, it is totally random, because I've replayed that fight tons of times and they never join in the same order twice in a row. If it really was just about the cutscenes as you say, Aerith SHOULD join me first every time, yeah? But she doesn't. Ergo, it's randomized.

Barret joined my team

i cant hear this without seeing breakdancing sephiroth in my head

Sephiroth sword is based on Sasaki Kojiro, famous swordsman, sword called a Ōdachi. These were longer and heavier Japanese swords. Sasaki Kojiro was a peerless swordsman who killed hundreds of people with this type of sword. There were martial arts for all these types of weapons in feudal Japan, now lost to time.

@@Bahamut998 I doubt this Sasaki's odachi was twelve feet long.

@@DaveC2729 well obviously it’s an exaggeration of a historical weapon but Nomura literally designed Sephiroth based on Sasaki Kojiro, and pretty much the entire game is based on Japanese tropes

@@Bahamut998 Fair enough.

我玩困難模式拿來用比較能合拍音樂段落,普通模式賽菲強度不夠會太快打完

@@puregamer2886 不過你也很強了，我打困難的賽非有好幾次蒂法/艾莉絲/克勞德三個人差點一起回到星球😂😂

it still works since the fights in the game have three stages, right? I mean is still super cool.

In my personal opinion it works quite well due to the context. This fight against this Sephiroth should not even happen, but it occurs since Sephiroth is trying to alter the flow of destiny, which is why the song is not like the original, it is chaotic, messy, due to what Sephiroth is trying to achieve, create chaos on the timelines. The Advent Children version would only work in Advent Children due to the context in which it is played and the same for Nobuo Uematsu's original composition for the original 1997 game, and the remake being obviously a remake changed things (For better or worse) and this arrangement is proof of the changes made to the game's story

I feel you, it's a major tease as the music starts going the same way as the original theme and at the last moment it changes.

@@TommyZawa That and they don't want to give us the full theme this early on. These bosses are merely a prelude to the true fight. I imagine as we encounter them in the subsequent games they'll have different versions until they build up to the original arrangement (Just, y'know, not arranged with the limitations of a PS1)

It starts playing at exactly the part he grows the wing, which makes total sense to me.

No, because it's only Sephiroth's human form. In the original, you fought Sapher Sephiroth, and other bizarre forms of him, but never his human form. It doesn't cheapen it at all

@@DanTheMan33088 Umm, yes you do. It's a one-on-one fight with Cloud. And this dude isn't even Sephiroth. It's a fake clone.

@@Judah_Katzenberger LOL you mean the one at the end, in Cloud's mind? That doesn't count because it's a automatic win. it's not an actual fight. All you do is use one Omnislash and that's it

@@DanTheMan33088 It's not in Cloud's mind. It's the actual final fight. A cinematic, scripted fight, yes, but the real deal.

@@Judah_Katzenberger Still, it's an automatic win. All you do Is press X and that's it. Doesn't count IMO
