That high-five was EARNED!

Was that or having an actual s** scene 🤣 and after Madame M innuendos is not a ludicrous idea to have. From a certain point of view, this fight is essentially a metaphor for such thing, as both ended exhausted, but in a explosion of happiness and extremely satisfied with each other 😁

@@melficexd Actually a good interpetation LOL

Climatic pinnacle of the whole 1st game lol well close

@@melficexd so that rich man's massage was actually a sex scene?

Hell House was a skill check. Rufus was a skill gate.

If you've finished your first playthrough on Normal Mode, I'd recommend getting the dresses on Easy mode. Saves you time to go through this fella again and again lol.

@@seasonaldates hell where’s the fun in that

@@genesisspace5331 just a suggestion for those who prefer time efficiency over pure challenge. both approaches are okay! :) if you want to go for fun, then by all means. for me personally, this fight in Hard Mode was fun.

You should be able to smoke this house at level 50, it’s only a challenge when levelling due to lack of good materia and HP/MP. You can send it into Phase 2 immediately with a powerful caster casting Blizzaga whilst it’s on fire at the start.

I love that they took the weirder enemy designs and made them into bosses. You can tell the people who worked on the game have legitimate love and respect for the series and its fans.

​@@IzzySarru I was genuinely amazed that they didn't leave out a single enemy from this stretch of the game. So much thought and care went into everything-I remember reading a statement from one of the main devs before it came out, saying it was great working with passionate people who'd grown up playing FF7 and got into making games because of it, but that one of the things that was the most fun was coming up with logic behind the enemies and things that were just put in the original game out of whimsy and serendipity, and now adding a layer of detail and thought and worldbuilding substance to them. But I had no idea it would go so far beyond just little encyclopedia entries and into literally how these absolute oddities fit into this strange world and how they'll cross paths with our old friends making their way through it (There's so much new Japanese wordplay in Wall Market too, it's insane. The localization is also shockingly good tho). I can't wait to get a PS5 so I can go through it again with the Yuffie stuff this time as well. I'm sad to see they put all that silly Deep Ground stuff back in, but maybe it's just as a lark to give cute lil Yuffie her own little DLC adventure and won't amount to anything outside of that (or is just cosmetically a shoutout to Dirge of Cerberus without the cringe additional lore)-Either way I'm hoping to see soon.

@@frogisis Old comment, but them calling back to Deep Grround, Advent Children and the rest of the FF7 series feels like an attempt to right past wrongs. Like do deep ground and that extra stuff with Vincent, but do it right this time. The more I think about this game the more it feels like it's trying to be THE FF7 experience.

@@IzzySarru I was wondering if this was the case, like "okay, the original game had this rando house enemy that was greenlighted for whatever reason. let's poke fun at that."

@@frogisis Well said

my favourite bit!

@@Guitareye90 it kicks off for me at about the 2:55 mark but the whole song is simply excellent. I'm no weeb, but japanese song writers are simply on another level when it comes to video game music.

@@aeson6294 I had the privilege of studying at a Yamaha music school when I was a kid and they really have such a meticulous and thorough way of teaching kids to children, in such a way that made it enjoyable so that kids would love to actually play and compose music!

@@aeson6294entire game is an orchestral masterpiece from beginning to end.

I thought to hansel and gretel : Mickey version when they try to escape from the house. The music is a sound like a little same

If they ever remake 9, I'd love to see what they do with the hell houses on there - to me there is something organic definitely going on with those versions!

Bro I agree 100%! The music was so dramatic it helped everything flow together!!!

Yes and in hard mode huhubwhat a battle !

Same, it’s classic FF7, yet new and unique and so much fun. It might be my favorite, and I’ve been a fan since ‘97. It reminds of FF3’s battle theme.

Not to mention the Main Theme too. (3:01) It goes above and beyond.

The original was even more goofy than the remake specially if you play the awful Spanish translation (glad that they did it better with 8 and 9)

@@La-hora-del-terror I actually started playing 7 Classic. It's great. I'm at the whirlwind on top of the mountain.

@@JOnayo-km5nh i like that part specially after you leave that place. Enjoy it, it isn't my favorite FF game but it was the first that i take it seriously.

It's my favourite bit of the whole piece honestly

That part had a pso2 kind of triumph

This part always gives me goosebumps, especially with the electric violin vamping in the background

same lmao

This part is so epic no joke Why does it fit so well? And the CHOIR HOLY FUC

Mine too! It's so clean and full of hope it's incredible!

Goosebumps!!🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎

This part is magnificent and so energetic!

This part feels so familiar for some reason. It is any famous music from any other game?

@@gabrielquinto5187I’m not sure but something about it causes an extreme sense of wonder for me

Yes this is Hero music 🔥🔥

That’s because it actually was. I believe over a 300 piece live orchestra was used to make the 8 hour 34 minute soundtrack of this game

​​@@Danker19991The huge studio orchestra credited is actually due to the long recording process, it's 8h30h of music to record, sure there was a lot of recording sessions and it's nearly impossible for the very same musicians to play in each of them, so they call different musicians. The ensemble each session might've had was probably a '55 or so'-piece orchestra.

How could you hear that!? Impressive and thanks

It starts at 2:43

Bruh, this thing took me forever to deal with, ultimately took me two attempts. That High Five was EARNED.

Yes

Yeah that part from 1:50 to 2:13 is crazy

You don't say that to the people who haven't played other final fantasy games before. The only reason I have this is because ffxv was my favorite game of 2020.

@@genericsonicfan581 I'm sorry?

@@jaehaalexander1172 what I'm saying is, some of us are kind of new.

@@genericsonicfan581 okay..? Glad you joined the club?

so beautiful ik😳

Same here

Agreed. I don’t know why, but sometimes I feel my eyes well up a little. The inspirational bit almost tells you to keep going against this impossibly fathomable beast. Truly, this song is a masterpiece.

My favorite part by far

@@simpcat4415 também, Best Part in my opnion Soudtrack: 10 Boss mode hard: 0!

It kinda gives off a Zelda/Kingdom Hearts vibe to it

Hell yeah. This the best

Have you beaten it?

In case you didnt beat it yet use poison on it.

I just used corresponding elements, like when it does fire, use ice attacks. Asses is really good for this fight

Same I'm stuck on hard mode

@@AMaidenlessRunt spread out your elemental materia on cloud aerith use pray as your healing materia you can see the elemental affinity if you check-out the hell house windows and hit it with the opposite element tonberry can be easily taken out with triple slash also you can poison the house.If you still can't beat get gotterdammerung from chapter 17
