It finally clicked for me why Tifa said "huh" when Cloud said "it's been five years". In her mind, the last time she saw Cloud was when they were at Nibelhiem as kids. In Crisis Core, Cloud went with Zack and Sephiroth but didn't remove his helmet because he was too embarrassed to let Tifa see him just be a regular grunt after making claims that he'll get into SOLDIER after leaving the village.

After seeing the look on his face I just had to put this out there. I got this game greenlit. I was offered a deal with a man who has some very powerful connections who allowed me a request on any videogames that I want. I requested Shenmue 3 and Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Not only a Remake but a sequel. We'll see if they go through with that. He also took my idea for a character design that led to the creation of Jiren from Dragonball Super. I will see what else I can do. This man owes me. I'm thinking about a sequel to Super Mario RPG and a remake of Chrono Trigger. If anyone has any game ideas they want made let me know and I will pass it on. This is no joke. Shenmue 3 was in development hell for over 10 years. They were never going to make that game but they did. That is how I know this guy is for real with being able to fulfill requests.

on a serious note, that's really one of my pet peeves with some modern video games, often jrpgs; sleeping with their equipment still on, including their boots/shoes on. i get it, it's a hassle to make a separate model that you'd only be using for a few scenes, but surely, if that's the case, you can just skip showing them wake up from bed, or maybe use those equipment-less models as extra costumes. do a good enough work on the foot models, i'm pretty sure there'd be a handful of happy Tifa/Aerith/Cloud/Barret fans with foot fetishes that'd play with those costumes.

I think Max is THE guy if you want to watch a playthrough of FF7 Remake. I've heard a lot of complaints about how this game isn't a carbon copy of the original game and frankly I think those people completely missed the point of the remake. Max has a lot of emotions invested into this franchise and it shows. I teared up when you finally get to see the scale this world truly is by just looking at the upper plates from the sector 7 slums as Max is slumped in his chair literally speechless by the sheer beauty of the game. Also, Max isn't playing through this game through nostalgia glasses (as most people are), or through cultural osmosis FF7 had in the past 20+ years. He's BEEN playing FF7 original for years and there are the small subtleties only someone like Max can pick up, and it's great to see a streamer (and his viewers) pick up a lot of those small details. As Max has said since showing us the FF7 Remake demo "Look 👏 at 👏this 👏fucking👏video 👏game👏."

@@RRRRRRRRR33 Without trying to spoil the game, I heard a lot of criticisms about the plot changing course from the original game, and how Nomura is the Kojima of Square Enix (i.e. plots go out the window). Like I mentioned before some fans simply wanted a carbon copy of the original FF7, but with 2020 graphics. By the end of the video Max has put in around 6 hours into game, and if he took as long as he did if he played FF7 on the PS1 I'm sure he would've been in Junon or on his way to Costa del Sol by now. That brings me to the 'fetch quests' that are introduced into the FF7 Remake. Some might consider these side quests as game fillers but for someone like Max or me, it fleshes out the world and we have an opportunity to actually interact with NPC's from these locations. The NPCs from the original FF7 only had a few dialogue lines and that was pretty much what you were going to get when it came to world building. The side quests offer you, as the person in control of Cloud and his party, the breathing room to explore the Sector 7 slums and the other locations you'll be going in the future. People might have have negative opinions on side quests because a lot of other RPG's do use that mechanic solely to fluff up the playing time, but FF7 Remake balances extending playtime with world building. Sector 7 in the original FF7 was literally a single screen; the only notable spots were Seventh Heaven, an item shop, a weapons shop, and the support pillar. The Remake gave us an actual town to walk around, with NPCs talking about their daily life, the recent Reactor 1 bombing, and the monsters that terrorize the town. To say that FF7 Remake is a disappointment is a gross negligence to all the tiny details these upset fans glossed over. P.S. I wasn't upset at you, just people who can't see the forest for the trees.
@RRRRRRRRR334 жыл бұрын
@@wonderwondertwins Well, fleshed out cities with npcs walking around talking random stuff, reacting to events, etc... this is the basic standard set by Witcher 3 years ago. Fetch quests is a antiquated gimmick, but they are optional at the end of the day. As remake goes, I think they did a decent job with the usual stuff: Graphics and sound are good, the combat looks very fun (even with the constant and repetitive banter, something inherited from kingdom hearts), controls and menus are revamped, the areas got bigger, etc.. the yakuza minigames are kinda idiotic imo, but some people like them, so it's a dumb little extra. BUT, here it comes the real issue, the writing is not good man. Maybe a little spoiler but.... this game is an alternative continuation, square confirmed that. That defeats the point of a remake, they are not bringing back the old, they are making something new. That defines a sequel. It's not a reboot because we are not seeing a reimagination of the same world and characters, a reboot don't have any connection with the former story. So, I know it's nonsensical to judge prematurely, but considering the names involved... The infamous Nomura and his kingdom hearts nonsense + Motumo and his final fantasy 13 trilogy... Honestly, I don't expect a good story when these 2 clowns are involved. And, this is the real spoiler, they got the nerve to add time-travel to the original plot. Before someone cries about how they did not wrote the dialogues and etc... they are the goddamn directors, Motumo is also a scenario director. In other words, if they wish to cut it off the time travel from the plot and try something else, they have the power to do so. But considering how Nomura is heavily protected inside Square (he must have some really good connections), I can bet with anyone that going through an alternative time-line was his idea. So yes, the fans should embrace themselves for the worst, this is FF7-2, not a remake. And we witnessed the previous results of FF10-2 and FF13-2. If they marketed this game as a sequel, nobody would get hyped, this is the reason why I think square committed a sin against the fans (and I am not even a fan, but I 100% understand their frustration. Got bamboozled by the marketing + waited 15 years and got a episodic sequel).

Kevin Yoo the problem isn’t even that there are narrative changes, but that the narrative changes are written so poorly it’s like a 12 year old’s fanfiction. I really enjoyed the first 8 or so hours of the game, but the quality of the writing noticeably drops as the game goes on, and even before the major changes that occur at the very end, the game feels like an over the top anime aimed at kids. The major changes at the end are very haphazardly thrown in, and couldn’t have been worse. I have no qualms about added content as long as it’s high quality, but the crap at the end about whispers is just awfully written.

@@arthur17718 I think sure, you can feel disappointed that it's not what you wanted, but there was nothing open world about Final Fantasy 7's first Midgar section in the original either. I think to expect an open world sandbox to play in at the very beginning of the narrative and bending the narrative to fit that would be far more dishonest to the spirit of the original game. I get it, the world of FFVII is pretty interesting and never fully fleshed out. I still think that's a reward to be fleshed out and dealt out when this saga concludes. Also, please get facts straight. FF15 was developed with an in-house, Luminous Studio. 7 Remake has dropped all of Squeenix's proprietary BS that has hampered them more than helped them in recent memory, being built in Unreal 4. There are also other games the size of FF7 remake, like CoD:MW which if you ask me, offer far far less.

This is one of my favorite videos. I absolutely love watching people reacting to things that they enjoy and love. It is impossible to watch this and not have a genuine smile and feel of happiness. It really goes a long way to make me feel better about how things are going with myself. That allows me to forget for a little while, and relive those happy moments. Thanks Max :)

I loved it so much when Cloud pulled out his sword in the doorway and hit it on the top of the frame because, i thought he was just going to have the usual ungodly spacial awareness and find a way to somehow get his massive sword in front of himsef without touching the frame first try, despite being confused and a little groggy but he didn't, and that little thing of all the details was one of the things that made Cloud feel the most human to me. Shows how much the little things matter.

It's a nice hint that Cloud isn't really a Soldier. A Soldier would have known "oh yeah sword big". And it's a neat way to show that Cloud absolutely panics whenever Seph shows up.

I enjoyed seeing that too. However, little things like lips not syncing up with spoken speech are too jarring for me. It is clearly meant to be played subbed. For as long as we had to wait for this game, that's not excusable in my opinion considering the graphical details they laud over and fetch quest padding. It really feels like I'm watching a play through of Rogue Galaxy.

@@obidahasdia4095 So far I'd say I would definitely prefer what they are doing to getting it all in one game. There's just too much opportunity in the Vii world. Three games of Remakes caliber would equal out to something far beyond the original imo. Thus far there are two chapters I outright didn't like out of 18.and even they were fun. Just had some execution issues, and a story beat I didn't like. I honestly don't know how you can say Remake Part One isn't a full experience when it is literally the same length as the entire original game.

That was my exact feeling when I started the game. "This game is too much..." Hearing the updated songs would make me tear up so hard, it brought me right back to 97. The songs would sometimes remind me exactly how I felt when I first experienced the story the first time. It rained a lot when I got the game so I can feel the wind coming through my window, sometimes I had to hike home (15km away from town) and I'd be hiking home in the rain, I remember getting home soaking wet and firing the game up and that eerie music would kick in when I reached Kalm. I still remember curling up in a blanket after being the rain for hours trying to get home. I used to go out to see my friends every single day and be with them all day every weekend. But this game sucked me in from end of Sept to around March or April. All I did was play this game in my free time after highschool. I wanted to tell my friends what they were missing out on, but no one loved RPG's. On my 3rd play through I showed my best friend the ending. I was like holy shit....... you gotta see how ape shit Omnislash is. lol. My friend was drunk out of his mind and it blew him away. I lent it to him and I didn't see my game for 9 months while he obsessed over it. lol. I sold him the game (bought my own again), and that game outlasted my second copy as I ended up buying it back 3 years later and my friend regretted it, so one more play through and he bought it back for twice the price. haha. I can't wait to show him this game, he has no idea it was being remade as he doesn't game anymore, but I think he'll be addicted to FFVII once again. At first I wanted ATB turn based, but I'm more than happy with what hey did, especially with the materia and perks that makes the combat a bit more fluid. It gets even more fun when you got a full party. If you didn't play this game back in 97, I don't think they get why this Remake such a big deal. I'm not a gamer who remembers games differently, I remember them exactly how they were. It's so strange to come leaps and bounds over the OG and even over the original tech demo that started the hype train. The game probably does look a lot better than advent children too at this point. Sounds unbelievable, music and voice acting. The NPC's were mind blowing too, a lot of the NPC acting is beyond what some devs hope to get on their main characters. I used to talk to every single NPC after every single "Event" (something that triggers new conversations in the OG game) just to uncover more about themselves the world or the story. I find myself listening to alllllllll the NPC's in this game too. I'm just honestly afraid to finish this game and I hope Square is smart enough to put every single staff member on FFVII until they finish all of the episodes.
