you missed the sin that marlene thought aerith smelled like flowers after running around the sewers, train graveyard, and barely avoiding a helicopter crash

Look at the girl and tell me she wouldn't smell like flowers even after all that shit.
she's transferring knowledge from original universe that's why
@@sirocco2810 that brings that old saying back, "their shit smells like roses"
Shitty flowers maybe lol.

You missed the part where tifa mixes a drink with only one drink. Then the cosmo canyon is made by simply shaking the mixers with not beverage in them lol
Unless the mixer already had something in it.

@@richardrider651 Then wouldn't it begin with them crawling out of the North Crater instead of starting in Midgar?
@@GaolerNippon sequel something that happened Ff7 before crisis core, FF7 crisis core, FF7 original, FF7 Advent Children FF7Dirge of Cerberus. Had to correct this* I get dyslexic at times. This is the original timeline. FF7remake The whisperers show them the future. Both red 13 and Aerith said these was. Sephiroth showed Cloud the edge of creation. Which is also the final part of final fantasy 7. The guardians of the future war the three bad guys from Advent children. Aerith and sephiroth are aware of the previous timeline. Arith said if we go forward we will change ourselves. The sephiroth we are seeing is from Advent children. Destroying faith Makes 3 the timeline where Zack is alive. What makes the game a sequel it's a different timeline of the same story. "Some kingdom hearts stuff is going on"
@@richardrider651 That would make it a reboot, not a sequel. The events are still playing out as the original but now with extra stuff thrown in there. That still qualifies as a remake or reboot. Sequel would have to be after the end of the northern crater. Even if the characters memories are erased and the timeline rewinds, that would be a reboot.
I love how we go through wallmarket, fight in an arena, dance for approval, confront Corneo, go through a giant sewer, brave a train graveyard, and climb to the top of the sector seven pillar and fight Reno and Rude all in one night.
Lol that REALLY bothered me
Damn you are right, There are other things,in minecraft I love how the guy have square head, how he is changing terrain with just pickaxe. In witcher you can take so many deadly blows from monsters and then just eat a sandwich and you are good to go,now I can't look at that anymore, In call of duty it takes half of the magazine to kill and 10 seconds to recover if you are hit by a bullet. I love how you can keep crashing your car in forza and carry on driving,I need a car like that. What a dumbass.
Well, if it helps, just pretend when you fell down the sewers, all 3 of you were knocked out for sometime. Cloud was just the first to wake up. As it kinda looks like the 3 of you got placed there and not fell down to that position. There was a door in that room and it's locked. Only by beating the rat boss, were you able to be free to move on. Which means, they woke up in the morning, fought the rat boss, then spend the entire afternoon getting out of the sewers and got to the train graveyard by night fall.
/: bruh u also noticed that they skipped one night of sleep? Doing missions?
Dude, @@pawelgedyk1762, if I could get a car like that from Forza I would be lead footing everywhere I go!
This game isn't a remake, it's like an alternate reality where everything is so screwed up, demetors from harry potter show up to try and fix things.
it's a ReImAgInEd version of ffvii. meaning they can fuck around and find out
Fire that Nomura...
No, it isn't. It is a memory remake from Aerith and Sephiroth as Sephiroth is invincible as long as that link exists.
Its remake dude not remastered.
@@oktabriyandiyunus9117 , a remake isn't usually trying to fuck the story so bad that they had to create nonsensical ghosts. Also, those whispers are supposed to be there to keep the story intact, but they appear whenever they please nonetheless. Nomura's nonsense will get back at him some day...
I'm rather impressed with the detail of the separate visible materias in the weapons.

Yes, except that as you gain more slots on each weapon, the visible materia slots don't change.

yes
I was not expecting them to do Barrett so well. His funny moments are legitimately funny, he's delightfully corny at times, his screaming at the plate aftermath actually hurt, and he's unnecessarily handsome. Best boi
Imagine Barret's girlfriends being like "I'm piston for a fistin".
best character honestly, built like a tank and the skills for his melee weapons devastate the sh!t out of anything.
I wish they'd gotten Beau Billingsly back though
Imagine the poor soul who ends up dating Marlene when shes a teen. Barret doesn't even have to go get his gun because it's literally attached to his body.
i found him and aerith to be the most relatable. in the beginning i found myself agreeing with his environmental speech. relevant in the real world sadly, people need to hear that for our world too.
“Hojos lab turns into an episode of Scooby Doo” almost made me crash my car 😂😂😂
3:30 My thoughts exactly. In the original, my first playthrough ever, the story built up Sephiroth so much that when he finally appeared on screen, I felt I was in the presence of an in-game legend and even watching him battle against a dragon, I was in awe of his strength and magic. Because he was introduced so quickly in this game, steals that same impact away from those that have never experienced the first.
That's exactly what I was saying when I kept seeing him. Sephiroth feels cheap and cliche now.
They've discussed this in great detail in interviews. Even people who never played FF7 know about Sephiroth, hiding him and building him up is pointless because we already know he's powerful and terrifying.
@@Seraph821 Except even when you know about him hiding him until the end of Disc 1 has a great impact I played the game knowing full well who Sephiroth was and it was still satisfying to have him remain a mystery for 1 third of the game The remake overuses him to the point where it's just annoying and cheap
I got tired of Sephitoth in this game. I can’t even listen to his epic song anymore, which I used to love. He was one of my favorite characters ever, and still is if I focus only on the FF VII classic and forget all the rest.
@@carinainmotion3100 Right? In terms of traits (not story), he's lost all his humanity, and thus--he's no longer relatable. He starts off this game in a god-like state instantly making him otherworldy and therefore his story is less tragic, whereas in the original he started off like a normal human, then we watch him break and transcend into godliness.
The Cait Sith cameo must've been so confusing for people who never played the original
Yeah, it kinda was
Especially since it happened in such a serious moment 😂
kizzmysass Seriously lol
I thought so until multiple friends who had never played OG FF7 just casually said "Oh i just assumed that was another character coming later" XD some people just accept weird shit
They literally showed the end of the game and key moments with no explanation too 😂
Talks about how Aerith’s mum should recognise Cloud’s sword as it was her daughter’s boyfriend’s, has the Iron Blade equipped during cutscene
Back when Zack would meet Aerith's mom, he would still technically be using the starting sword and not the Buster Blade.
Thats just for the sake of the games mechanics, he would never actually change swords until Advent children so she should recognize it
Would be funny though "You are carrying the sword of her ex gf who also was a soldier" "Nah mam, I just found this in the reactor I blew up together with this terrorist group" "What?" "What?"
pozertron if u played the remake theres more to Zack, maybe he met aerith n his mom again with his bustersword this time.
I don’t think Zack ever met Aeriths mum in CC and I don’t think Aerith ever saw the Buster sword.
"When you examine this closely, Aerith comes off as a save scummer, reloading her save because she didn't get the best ending." That right there might be one the best reviews of FF7R.
@Aaron9 Then the sin would still remain relevant, since releasing an unfinished game is the biggest sin of all. Want an example? Look at Anthem
Like re zero🤣🤣
Kinda makes sense, cuz she died right?
Not really because what she’s kind of trying to keep things the same it’s sephiroth who is trying to change his fate and that’s the reason so many things change. aerith is only reacting to the change and trying to stop him but it’s still a good sin and a great video.
@@CoolDude5633554 It is technically finished it’s just in multiple parts why I do not know
When Sephiroth tells Cloud to run away, does anyone else see Scar from The Lion King telling Simba to run away and never return?
Run cloud run you need to live you need to hide SquareEnix have lost there mind.
IKR I was thinking the same thing lol
Oh my god yes! I even say the ‘never return’ in my head
Oh god yes!
When Sephiroth said “Run Cloud, Run Away.” I thought the same exact thing.... He’s spent way too much time in the kingdom hearts universe.
PhantomShadow224 I was kinda surprised that Dartigan didn’t make a Lion King reference there lol
@@superlombax1561 but its the line zack told to cloud...
carlos padilla I haven’t played or watched Crisis Core, so sorry. I was just saying that it sounded familiar to the line from Lion King. That’s all.
@@greatgrizzly3537 "Run Cloud, run away" is similar to "There is more to seek. So go forth and seek it"?

You missed the fact that Barrett, Cloud and Tifa take cover from helicopter fire BEHIND EXPLOSIVE GAS TANKS atop the pillar
Zhengrui0 I WAS SO CONFUSED LIKE W H Y THAT OF ALL THINGS
You somehow know what was in those tanks?
Mahande some literally blew up in the game I’m pretty sure so I think they were explosive sooooooooo
@@mahande88 So it is totally reasonable for people to behave only according to what they know for sure, not what they can infer or what is plausible, whether highly or even remotely? I guess social distancing really is a waste - if I don't know that the person next to me is infected, then obviously they pose no threat to me!
Zhengrui0 I was gonna say that the helicopter keeps on shooting at Cloud from that position too instead of flying at another angle to try and hit him, but that works too.
4:45 actually if you believe the post AC Sephiroth theory then... The whispers were holding Aerith in place because Sephiroth was giving Cloud a hallucination that makes Cloud slow down. Remember that in the fire hallucination you can't walk fast? Sephiroth was trying to delay Cloud and Aerith meeting but the whispers held Aerith in place so the two can meet.
That actually makes a lot of sense
wait, where did u read abt post AC Sepiroth?? bc if it's canon, then that part of the game in the remake makes much more sense & my dislikeness towards that part is being reduced lol
@@devaw5599 It's a big theory about this game. There are a lot of videos about it but I recommend watching the Easy Allies videos with Maximilian Dood.
@@strelitziamystery21 ohh oh well, i appreciate the fandom trying to make things work.. i guess i still kinda dislike the game haha.. i hope FFVII Rebirth would be amazing enough to redeem my disappointment towards FFVII Remake haha
@@devaw5599 I guess we will have to wait to see if the Time Travel theories are true when part 2 and 3 come out.
I don't know how people seem to keep overlooking that Tifa clearly said Barret's name when they first got to the pillar, with Aerith standing right behind her and looking at her as she talks. Also, Wedge didn't fall through the hole the party did. He was on a different section of floor and they had to climb back up to get to him.
"How does a corporation controlling the world work?" East India Company, brother.

Walmart
Countries are corporations.
@Robert Hunter Mercenaries, black market, experts on security, big data, billions of dollars if they want. Sure, you know, they´re nothing compare to your statement.
Sephiroth - Like Aerith- ist self aware of the past. Since he knows that he was defeated in the main timeline, he wants to defy destiny and create his own future in which he succeeds. Given that both him and Aerith are resting inside the livestream (which holds all the memories of the earth) it would make sense that they are both aware of the past outcome, even if they are inside a time loop (aka the "remake"). Aerith was afraid to change destiny from the beginning, because of the uncertainty that it held in regards of whether she and her friends would succeed in the end. She had come to terms of her own death. She didn't want to change fate for her own good. She only took the final step back then and there with the portal, because she knew that all the timelines will eventually collapse and collide due to sephiroths actions. And in order to stop him, she had to play his game, too. I am not a native speaker, so I hope you could understand what I'm trying to say lol
Would that also explain Cloud saying "but i killed you" to Sephiroth in the beginning? Cause that still confuses me. Along with many other things. May be because I played the OG after the remake, but they added a lot of unnecessary elements to this game, especially if it is to be interpreted the way you did, it just makes little sense to new players, even after they play the OG to get context cause the impact of it isn't the same.
@@tommen.baratheon by saying "but I killed you" he meant what happened in Crisis Core, a prequel to FF VII
There are no timelines. This is him and Aerith remaking memories. Aerith wants him to be disconnected from Cloud while he wants to get stronger.
Fun fact: Jesse's bomb in the original WASN'T meant to destroy the whole reactor. She even says so in the original if you talk to her while in the Avalanche hideout. This is the line. Jessie: Oops... Hey, look at the news... What a blast. Think it was all because of my bomb? But all I really did was just make it like the computer told me. Oh no! I must've made a miscalculation somewhere
yeah the analysis in this vid is some kind of shallow
@@clFer777 not as shallow as they made the story of this game. Stretching 10 hours into 40
@@bigbirdmusic8199 More like 6, maybe 7, if you try to do everything along the way
@@TrueKingOmega lol true
The game never said it was not meant to destroy the reactor. It said exactly what you said. Jesse not wanting to destroy the reactor is a retcon that makes no sense. They even risked lives to just get passcodes for doors. And not to just destroy a core that Shinra could fix over the weekend.
I think we can all agree that Barrett is the star of this show. His emotional scenes are nailed every single time
jessie sayin wedge butt looked "singed" seems to me like a callback to the OG where they bust out of the first bombing mission and there is a fireball and wedge dances around on fire. they took that out but added this line as a wink wink
Yep

Anyone else ever wonder how Aerith's mom could afford a house with a giant garden and their own private waterfall? Or is it just me.
Daniel Veira always
Shinras watched over them both since she was a kid. Prolly something there.
She was given that house by Shinra so she could take care of Aerith
@@myagastopiak4512 she already had the house before she had aerith though
Some Lazy Guy I never understood the whole Aerith had to come willingly for them to experiment on her when they could have taken her at any time
For sin 13 Aerith doesn't leave right away like the original and shows that she wants to stick around so the whispers attack her to get her to run away.
Got the impression Aerith was hounded by Whispers because she was about to wonder off and miss Cloud entirely. Whether knowingly or otherwise, after being 'rescued' her dialogue with him is different to the OG... At first I thought it was creative licence... Then I replayed the game and all the conversations or events had new meaning. (I'm sure we all experienced that)
Final Fantasy didn't need to copy the CWs Flash. Time wraiths protecting the timeline and Sephiroth says "run cloud, run" is a bit much.
@@shaneschofield6303 100%. Sephiroth tried to delay Cloud from meeting Aerith. The Whispers hold her in place to thwart Sephiroths timeline deviation. The remake makes sense once you realize What Sephiroth's new plans are, and what Whispers are trying to do
This game was the original “are we the baddies?”
That's literally the plot of Final Fantasy 4
I thought you were gonna say this game was the original “are we there yet?”
Nah, we got Tifa on our side!!!!
Nah, fuck shinra
Nah shinra were the stereotypical baddies that framed em!
44:35 - Technically, Sephiroth broke into this timeline first by showing up to cloud and giving him illusions and so on for the rest of the game. It’s why he’s more prevalent in this section of the story than the original. As for as I know, Aerith has become aware of the changes being done once the whispers started attacking her. So reasonable speaking, it’s Sephiroth who’s save-cheating cause he’s forced a new future (having cloud and co. Kill destiny) where he knows how he lost before and can change it now in a new save.
Kill destiny, lol it's so literal, destiny in a giant robot form. Nomura have no clue about subtly
So Sephy is the save scummer. THAT does make sense.
THANK you, I couldnt figure out why i was so confused when he brought that up- this is the perfect counter comment and exactly what my thoughts were on the game
Cool. Doesn’t make it right, though.
Also, the planet is saved but humans are dead. But I guess that is a good ending. Humans are scum anyways 😅😓
No sins for Cloud and Tifa approaching their landlord, who gives them free rent, with the intent to shake her down for water filters that they end up using for themselves? Like seriously who would do that.
"Aerith comes off as a save scummer, reloading her save because she didn't get the best ending" I never thought of it that way, you clever son of a gun.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache Same.
Well she DID die so i guess if this IS her save file of course she would reload lmao i mean i would consider dying a bad ending wouldnt u?
@@boebie5052 to be fair that depends on the story if your death is a requirement then tough luck. this is why it's better being a fish.
It would be awesome if she survives the sequel.
For playable characters from the original game(except for Aerith), it was good. For humanity in FF7 world, it was pretty bad...500 years later human extinction still occurs, so basically redXIII would have taken over the world.
"Unless the whispers are trying to make sure Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus occur" Yes, actually, literally. The three Whispers who aid the Harbinger are the three villains from Advent Children trying to ensure their own creation.
Very sure that they are cloud, tifa and barrett, as one uses sword, one uses fists and one uses gun
@@Godsforce it’s confirmed in the Ultimania it’s those guys.
@@Godsforce one uses one fist, one uses two guns not one and the other uses a short sword not a massive one, it's the advent children
No amount of “read the Ultimania” will change the fact that there is zero merit behind this argument. Cloud and friends won in the original, and I don’t think “remnants” of Sephiroth would want them to win, no matter how badly they may or may not want to make their selfish dream come true. Also, Advent Children is terrible; I’d rather pretend it doesn’t exist.
Also, the gunner guy whisper has an attacked with the same name as the guns that the gunner remnant had. And, the three combined into bahamut, and the three remnants summoned bahamut in AC
For one of the first sins about the bomb timing, while 30 seconds would've been enough to get a safe distance away from the bomb, the reactor exploding would cause heavy panic among the facility, which could lead to them being caught immediately They need to leave the area before it explodes to prevent arrest duh
Another one, in the OG, AVALANCHE DID intend to only disable the reactor. If you talk to Jessie, she mentions that the bomb wasn't supposed to be that big. It was just more subtle there.
34:38 "There's a guy the size of a bear with a gatling gun and a cute blonde toothpick with a sword about his size over there man..." "We saw nothing man... They don't pay us enough for this crap"
The townsfolk DID see Avalanche fighting "nothing" in sector 7. If you talk to people afterwards, they're talking about it.
Yeah but tifa and barrett never interacted with Aerith. Unless it's something like Aerith touches cloud, who then touches tifa, who then touches barrett...
@@ebreshea Spiritually Transmitted Dillussions are such a drag.
Maybe the people targeted by the whispers can see them, at least for the first time?
@@SilentProti I think of it more like "the planet has put it's eye on you" and that eye is so oppressive that you see it's physical manifestation. Like Sauron, without the Eye.
Also he complains about the rest of the party and avalanche seeing the whispers, and while he's right Cloud didn't purposely touch anyone, everyone DID touch him. Also in the cutscene where Barret cuts him out on the second reactor attack you can see a whisper pan right over the camera.
Leslie strong enough to pick up Cloud's buster sword but can't shrug of a punch from Corneo? Seems legit.
Sephiroth is really good at ASMR" Yeah, he sounds kinda sexy for ASMR
No he does not lmao. The old VA sure. But this? If you're interested in p**os
@@Killer_Kris7 I wouldn't call this voice actor a POS, but absolutely, George Newbern was better at voicing Sephiroth and nailing Sephiroth's tone. Japan kept the oriignal voice actors for nearly all of their roles, I think, while we changed nearly all of them. I won't say I'm fully upset about that, the new cast kills it. I prefer Quinton Flynn and Crispin Freeman for Reno and Rude as well, but I'll sacrifice them if we could just get Newbern back.
Rufus flew out after battling with Cloud, and in the next scene is back at the Shinra Bldg. Did they just circle and wait for them to leave?
Wouldn't you rather bail out when you lost your weapons and the fight? Makes sense to me :P
You can't say that it wouldn't be a very Rufus type of thing to do. Especially with the convoluted scheming he's involved in throughout the Compilation.
142 : "Judging by this virtual reality display on the Cetra, Shinra would be better at making a Final Fantasy game than Square Enix." Ooooooooooooooooooooooh! :-P (excellent... and sadly true)
That part doesn’t actually make sense considering Square Enix made that scene
Aerith took Cloud the long way because she wanted to spend more time with him in the underground area. Bad at picking up cues from woman counter: 1 I missed it the first time too. I also liked the pink dress scene with Aerith in Wall Market the best. Seemed the most realistic for her character. No grand entrance.
Wellllll, even if there hadn't been a safer route S5-S7, Aerith did go far out of her way to see Cloud off. The fact there was a safer shorter way just makes it worse/better
She chose the longer route because this game was 90% padding out the '40 hour JRPG' trope but go off
a sh!tty cue honestly, 10/10 would c0ckblock.

Thankfully, He caught on when he was about to question her and saw her smile
Some of the sins is either they forgot or misinterpreted what happened in the OG and the whole Remake game. For example the bomb from Jessie was always meant not to destroy the reactor. It was just not shown clearly. In the OG, ifyou talk to Jessie in the basement of Seventh Heaven after the first run she will have a dialogue where she is wondering why it had so much damage.
Yes but it takes all the consequences of being a terrorist away (which is what they are think of the now powerless hospitals) and shifts all the blame being like "even tho the terrorist's bomb failed let's finish the job so they don't have to be responsible for millions of deaths despite that had to be something they knew would happen and where willing to risk".
Jessie's bomb won't do much damage to the reactor as you can see from the cutscene in Ch.1. It's the company that made the entire reactor blow up.
@@royalreigns3373 agreed, a missed opportunity to develop avalanche. Instead they go the bubble wrap path, where good guys are good guys, balck and white boring nonsense
I swear to god Chadley and Leslie look like they are from FFXV but somehow they manage to escape that game.
That or XIII, Chadley looks very similar to Hope. But really white haired characters, who aren't old, are weird in the FFVII context. I think it was a deliberate choice to make Sephi white-haired since it gives him this inhuman and ethereal look. Would makes sense for Chadley as well but for Leslie it seems to be a random color choice except for white=cool logic.
@@illusionofquality979 It seems like they forgot what the white-haired trope originally represented. In Japanese Mythology, Silver/White hair was an indication of demonic possession and/or influence (Unless your old), Sephiroth has Silver Hair because he was injected with Jenova cells before he was born, which is what allowed Jenova to pretty much influence him and commit the atrocities that he did. Same with Dante, Vergil, and Nero in DMC, it's not because it's cool, but because there is a mythological meaning behind it. Also, Leslie is supposed to be one of President Shinra's sons, so where did the white hair come from?
BUT, maybe Avalanche doesn't use cell phones because Shinra controls the network, in which case they'd be easily tracked. Just a theory.
Or that they are insanely expensive and don't have a wide regular world adoption.
@@aaroncollins7192 After Living in China, I know this is absolutely why they don't want to leave a cell phone trace
Mako powered phones cause cancer and neck horns
This is the correct assumption.
Why has no one said just a theory, a game theory
The reason Shinra leaves Aerith alone is because they need her to willingly lead them to the promised land. They tried to force her mother but obviously that didn't work.
The underground facility is an foreshadowing to the dirge of cerberus storyline actually. The whole ending is basically Kingdom Hearts. The giant shadow sora... I mean harbinger of fate, the weird time travel alternative universe stuff that makes more plot holes then fills them. Hell, I was almost expecting a "By the power of friendship in our hearts" speech from Cloud at this point.
Well, Aerith gave basically the same speech and hints.

Are we just gonna forget about Zack Fair?
Surprised you didn't mention the fact that Cloud snuck out of Aerith's house, Ran into her while leaving, they made their way through the broken highway, arrive in Wall Market, fight in the Coliseum, dance at the Honeybee Inn, attend Corneos audition, get lost in the sewers, arrive in the train graveyard, fight their way to the pillar, AANNDDD battle the turks ALL in one night
I've always seen purpose of the timer as not to reach a safe distance from the explosion (because it wasn't intended to be huge), but to reach a safe distance from the scene of the crime before the bomb goes off. A bomb going off will raise alarms, attract attention and create more obstacles to overcome, basically more hassle for the party if they're still in the vicinity.
19:57 The Buster Sword was originally Angeal's, Zack didn't get it until after his last visit with Aerith so she wouldn't think anything of Cloud having the Buster Sword.
That's based upon crisis core. In OG FF7, it was Zack as angeal didn't exist. So for more of us who really only played OG FF7, then he is correct. I only know of angeal cause I just recently played CC as someone told me about story changes.
@@sepheronx that would be truth if this game wasn't based on the compilation. So crisis core counts on this one.
sepheronx it’s not story changes it’s story additions
Jammineyeonline Especially since that now the embodiment of fate has been destroyed, so now it could be possible to encounter other characters and enemies from the other games in the compilation. Maybe
@@sepheronx Sure but in OG FFVII you never see Elmyra laying eyes on Zack, so you don't know if she did.
8:27 Jesse did NOT steal Johnny's ID. If you watch the scene where Shinra Security is hauling Johnny away with subtitles, the Security officer says "Ha! Your ID was never logged in, idiot! It wouldn't have worked even if it was!" The whole point was to show how stupid Johnny is, and how easy it is to get him to slip up and start talking.
Annoys me that you need subtitles on in this game to understand some of the dialogue. It's not often but, there are a few points where its not possible to hear/understand what's being said without subtitles. Most offensive are all the parts where dialogue is coming over the radio, without subtitles Tseng and the Turks are just making rumbling noises at the end of the Graveyard chapter. And, having subtitles on forces you to read them, distracting you from a, frankly, beautiful game.
@@benwhiley9680 to be honest, I think it's a thing in many modern video games in general, especially when dialogue is continuing while you are roaming around. That's why I always leave the subtitles on. I could stand far away and still get what some npc is saying somewhere, not only in this game, but others as well 🙈
@@benwhiley9680 also when corneo's thug are talking with their gas mask on. You can't hear shit
@@benwhiley9680 If you think that a small thing such as subtitles takes away from the perfection of this game then you are an idiot. I bet you are one of the same people that complains about subtitles in a movie because you didn't go to a theatre to "read". Dumbass.
@@mahande88 lmfao your pretty simple and easy to satisfy if you think this game is perfect. Simpleton
Another thing that annoys me about Tseng is that his hair is the same length during current time and during the flashback to when Aerith was young. But if you've played crisis core, his hair is noticeably shorter there, probably hinting at being younger at the time, and that game would be directly in the middle of ff7's story and the Aerith childhood flashback. Guess they forgot
honestly, in a world where outside of the upper levels of midgar there are giant worms, dragons and dinassoars with wheels, walking armed doesnt seem that uncommon.
Fun fact: put Lightning’s hair on cloud and he’ll look exactly like her.

16:45 I think they explain in Crisis Core that falling from that height is survivable for SOLDIERs due to their enhanced physical capability. You could argue it would negate the worry of using anything to slow the fall, but, I mean, just because something doesn't kill you, doesn't mean it won't hurt. Also thank God you removed a sin for Hell House, that was literally the highlight of the remake for me because I didn't believe they had the balls to bring back fighting a house in a remake. It's things like that which demonstrate doing a remake right,.
@Daniel Zuk Cause he really stronk.
@Daniel Zuk Because Turks are essentially super soldiers, too. ...Just, not in the same kind of way.
For sin number 58, in order for Aeriths powers to manifest properly, she has to willingly go along with Shinras plan, which is why they just keep an eye on her until later when her hand is forced for the safety of the team.
I think Aerith wanted to spend more time with Cloud, that's why she suggested the obviously longer path to sector 7. You could see Cloud's confusion and immediate realization after she said she'd be going back through a safer route.
Imagine if they would had died. Women do the most sometimes 🙄
Imagine they getting Stomp out and cloud looking at her like this is all your fault all because you didn't want to take the safer route..
Imagine if Zack had done his squats he would have slapped sepheroth around
zack is the original squat king. From before Sephiroth went crazy to Zacks death. He did squats. Plenty.
NEVER skip leg day.
Omg yes!
The way Dart pronounced "facade" is golden. I'm not mocking.
No joke, I thought that was how it was pronounced until my late teens.
Loved the part in ShinRa tower where barret and cloud ineffectually hammer at a large metal door and cant open it. Then like an hour later when Advent Children mode gas kicked in while fighting sephiroth cloud slices through actual buildings.
Dartigan, after writing each and every sin in this video: “Nailed it, I know, thank you. Moving on.”
Me: Theres nothing wrong with this game also me: grabs popcorn and nodding on every sin
I agreed with almost every sin mentioned and yet i have come to expect these kinds of things from final fantasy. i mean really even back in the original when i was little i questioned the phoenix down or revive materia not being used to revive the people that died. there are always plot holes and things that down right dont make sense but i still enjoy the game and watching these videos.i laughed my ass off watching some of these things that i didnt even notice
@@Angryllama517 Please stop with the Phoenix Down shit. Gameplay Elements =/= Story.
@@Angryllama517 Anyways Phoenix down = Revives a KO'd character. Not dead character. Same with revive :) Nothing could have save Aerith. ( And I really hope the remake won't save her in part 2 )
ShineSpark 88 lol who is this guy. If he knew how to read I said back when I was little. Like u know 1997. Get out of here with that shit and grow up.
@@Angryllama517 You are telling me to grow up, but can't differentiate gameplay from cinematics like a child. Yes, you said back when you were little, but you type like you still see it as a plothole.
This guy are sick. Jessie never intended to blow up the whole reactor in OG. In the HQ basement, she is visually stressed out about the size of the explosion and even commented that it was never meant to be so big. She said there must have been a miscalculation in the instructions she used.
Xavier Doe yeah the nuance is there. Most people wouldn’t catch the implication that it was actually shinra sabotage in the original
@Darrow Au Andromedus they are talking about the original game, there was never any cut scene showing shinra blowing up the reactor, just it exploding from the outside. If you talk to jesse later on in the hideout under the bar she comments on how the explosion was way bigger then she expected.
I think logicaly, what he meant, is that a small explosion (only destroying that small part of the reactor) is useless, they could fix it in no time, making all the work to stop the reactor useless. YOU NEED A BIG EXPLOSION TO GET THAT EFFECT. In the original, they always wanted to cause a big explosion, even if the result was even bigger than intended. The difference in the remake is that they seemed to play a vereu small explosion that wouldn´t make much of a difference.
That's not entirely true, I finished remake few days ago and went to original with fresh memory. Indeed she said that she must've made a miscalculation somewhere but she also says right after that "Hey, that was my bomb's debut. Makes me kinda proud", I wouldn't call it being stressed.
I'm honestly surprised you never brought up my biggest gripe with the game by far - the game not letting you do things because you can't mechanically, rather than logically. Namely, if there are enemies around, you are physically not capable of interacting with anything. For example, when Red XIII is being attacked and you need to rush to his side, you should be able to just run past the enemies and crawl/shimmy through. Even if the enemies attack, it's not like they'll instantly kill you. It'll hurt, but nothing lethal to these characters, and an ally's life is in danger, so that should take priority over fighting some trash. Or when you had to do that series of 'puzzles' with Aerith by using the robot arms, when we know for a fact Cloud can easily jump higher than those ladders and could've just jumped up and lowered the ladder himself. If a core feature of your main character is that they are incredibly strong, you need to adjust your puzzles so that they don't feel irrelevant to the character.
There’s no way Cloud’s sword would have cleared those corners in the air vents. Add 1 sin.
Im guessing the Sin Counter literally explodes when you get to chapter 18
So, much like anyone with two working brain cells who's first reaction to change is *not* to cry, he actually seems to dig it, even if I disagree where he thinks it's going. So, since you guys can't handle someone liking change, does that mean you think his opinion was bought?
@@TheDapperDragon You're making a pretty big assumption. I like the idea of what the ending caused alot. The execution was fucking awful. The monster design for the FateSides was terrible and doesn't fit FF7. If they had left the KH designs in KH and decided on something less hokey than you literally fighting the physical embodiment of fate, I'm guessing the changes would be alot more well received. I was so excited to see what was on the other end of that portal in Ch 17, I could not have been more disappointed. That said everything else in Ch 18 was solid, especially the Sephiroth fight. Also why are you bringing up paid shills? Autism?
@@TheDapperDragon yall gotta get off the nuts of people who don't agree with you online
me, as someone who has not played the original FF7, has no fucking clue what the hell is going on after thy rescue aerith; and i also have no idea what any of the characters are talking about from that point onwards as well. until watching this video i never would have guessed that this game is just an alternate path to the original. it's a confusing mess.
@@mrlloydval2887 it only confusing to people that this wild unproven theory drive them, do not let them pull you down the rabbit hole your closer to the real way the game is played out being new and not what going on they are with unproven wild theories. it makes sense once you know all ff7 lore. like the whispers was original to be in the OG game, barret and tifa was to die and end of midgar, sephiroth was to be shown early on. all this stuff and more got change in the original. they even told everyone that this is expanded story with all ff7 lore in it, or some call it director's cut( them put everything in they want to begin with and lore from other ff7 games/videos)
"He already looked like a woman even before he put on the dress". Oh my God Haha🤣

@@yannispirou101 I mean...
As a bi man I prefer cloud without the dress . . .
@@yannispirou101 I'll just take 'em both, lol! Sephiroth and Cloud are both very attractive. I think I like Cloud just a bit more, though, only for those adorable puppy-dog eyes he gives when scared or confused. Then again...everything about Sephiroth (excluding his voice in this game) oozes "come hither and I will devour you" and a girl can't discount that, lol! Grr, it's a tough call, so that's why I pick both.
If I remember correctly, Shinra doesn't collect Aerith despite knowing where she is because for some reason they need her to come willingly. Also, the president of Shinra's gun must've had some seriously crazy firepower if he thought he could take out Barret with it. He and the rest of the group constantly take machine gun fire like they're only being slapped.
But what doesn't make sense is that they kept trying to kidnap her. Like when Reno showed up in the church. If she needs to come willingly, why they send Reno to the church? To ask her politely to come to the Shinra building?
The whispers prevented me from taking this game seriously.

I've spent the last week watching FF7R related videos after finishing the game and this may have been the most amusing one. Besides the clever humor, a lot of the points made clear a number of odd moments I felt while playing but couldn't quite identify. Square needs to watch this.
So many odd moments, it was hard for me to fully enjoy the game. Fillers levels of the game at 40 h made me stop playing and watched the rest on maximillian streams lol
They won't, if only for the fact they will inevitably make bank off the hardcore fanbase that will voluntarily lap up whatever half-assed product they make with the FFVII IP.
@@kaptenlemper But it expanded on the story. If I got the og as the remake I'd be pissed as hell since they skimmed over half the damn story. It takes 4 hours to get through midgar in the OG.
Did they... Did they just Evangelion'd my FF VII? What's next, Nomura blaming the Corona Virus for the 3 year delay of the sequel?
I've come to not trust Nomura with anything that hasn't originated from his skull... scratch that, even I wouldn't trust what comes out of his skull either. He's bamboozled the KH series into some weird amalgamation of time travel and plot contrivance among other magnificent mess-ups, he's shown to be petty with the incorporation of FF Versus XIII into the KH series, he's shown to have troubles during FFXV's development, and now the FFVII "remake" is more of a re-imagining at this point.
Ayaya the next game is in 2023 at earliest been leaked already mate. Every square game is delayed by a year for now, might increase later.
@@StarMiners0416 I personally don't have a problem with the "re-imagining" parts since I didn't play the original game, or even knew this series existed until 15. But I cannot deny that I'm no-where close to being a fan of Kingdom Hearts. I've tried getting into it multiple times and just can't because of all the random ass-pulls that have ass-pulls because their ass-pulls are ass-pulls. Only so much I can take.
When Cloud is in the airduct he could literally drop down into the room and murder everyone with a Firaga spell.
I think the bomb timing is to make sure they are at a distance where they will not be swarmed by guards (in Avalanche defense).
Aerith actually kind of *is* trying to make sure Advent Children doesnt happen, as if Sephiroth is defeated in the same manner as the original, he'll continue exist as a sort of planet ghost leeching off the life stream and waiting for the opportunity to come back again and again. Some lines even imply that this Sephiroth isn't the one from the original timeline, but the one from Advent Children, and hes trying to get a better ending for himself. This would make Sephiroth the save scummer, and Aerith the anti-scummer summer.
Sephy can come back everytime? then why he need to change fate?
Sephy merged with a planet-vampire alien thing that is generally rejected by the life stream. He'll keep coming back as long as he retains his sense of self. Might not be possible to destroy him without convincing him to let go of his hated. Even if you destroy the planet, he could survive in space as per Jenova. So Advent children could still happen either way.
@@darkshimi Sephiroth can't come back whenever he pleases. His conciousness is alive but he need a jenova cells infused body to posses and then return.
@@Yokai_Yuri “As long as Cloud remembers me, I can continue to exist. Within the Lifestream, and on the surface. Even if my spirit disseminates, even if just one fragment of a memory courses around the planet, in the end I can count on Cloud’s consciousness to bring me back, the man thought.” Quote translated from 'On The Way To A Smile - Lifestream Black And Lifestream White'. (My source: thelifestream.net/novels-novellas/on-the-way-to-a-smile-lifestream-black-and-lifestream-white/) So you technically aren't wrong, but if it's the memories of him that keep him "alive" in the lifestream, then it just takes Jenova and the memories of someone who knew him to fill in the memory gaps and bring him back from the remnants. Or at least that's my understanding.
That and the final canonical ending of FF7 is that the Planet makes humanity extinct within 500 years of the end of the game. Pretty sure that's a future people would want to avoid.
Sin 44 13:33 I actually thought that the sword hitting the door frame was to show how scared cloud was of sephiroth, displaying his PTSD with quick and frantic actions showing that he is terrified and using his flight of fight responses immediately without any thought because he knows that if sephiroth makes a move hes dead! He could probably fit his sword through the door if he wasn’t so afraid.
Agreed
he literary fits the sword through the door in the next few seconds
some of those "sins" where present in the FF7 original, like the slums, the eight reactors, and more ...
And they still don't make sense.
and any of them is really a sin if you compare to real world.. it really happens
I believe there’s no blood trails like OG/ blood when Barret is stabbed to keep the rate teen or something. They’ll probably keep it that way in future installments too
Yeah, gore isn't everything but the lack of, no, the abscence of blood alltogether ruined a lot for me. The original felt really grizly, dark and mysterious with it's violence. It's a small thing but really changes a lot. I also ''love'' how Biggs was shot with like 4 assault rifles point blank in the face, and in the ending scenes he's seen recovering with just a bandaid, like what the fuck... lol. I'm also curious how are they gonna show the flashback with Barrett and Marlene's real father, who literally shot Barret's arm off.
@@santerisalmivuori3872 And I now regret hitting read more. Really should've mentioned something about spoilers. Thought you were just gonna talk about the absence of blood making a different atmosphere.
Thank you for taking off a sin for the boss fight and adding one for the fact that Sephiroth sounds so much like a kingdom hearts character cause it was kinda annoying.
Nomura's fingerprints were all over the final hours of the game, complete with AC-levels of "Subtlety". I don't care what position he was in, I recognized Toriyama and Nomura's handiwork when the point calls for it.
Every final fantasy character sounds like a kingdom hearts character.
Magic Warrior, right? It’s almost as if Kingdom Hearts was fashioned after a certain game series but I can’t quite put my finger on it...
dragoness615 Yeah. After all, FF did come first.
The point of double layered city is that it DOESN'T make sense. The SEC are quite literally a cabal of Saturday morning cartoon villains. Shinra had more than enough time to pin the blame on Avalanche since they were ALWAYS ready for a scapegoat. Wutai was just the easiest boogeyman. Avalanche presented itself and that's only thanks in part to Barrett who is somewhat making it up as he goes along himself. Jessie is a dems expert. They even make logical conjectures of said high yield including the reactor itself just going off from the damage from the bomb. An explosion decided to breach in very different and there's nothing around to go off from it. I don't think there was anything to fear from blowing open a wall. The obvious answer to the Scarlet sin is that it WAS planned Is asking why he's carrying around the Buster Sword a weird question. It was never a point in CC. Aerith could just be under the impression that certain member of Solider First Class uses the weapon. And just because she was locked in Shinra labs would mean she would know intimate details about Solider either Eh Corneo is probably reocuppied with getting some action. Likely that he heard a duo is cleaning house in his cup and he decided to throw the Hell House at that. Cloud and Aerith also don't use their real names in the mansion so unless he's seen them in person - there's no reason to assume the tail he was gonna get tonight are also the champs. Despite Shinra (the government) walling off Wall Market Don Corneo due to his wealth and influence probably still has an end. After all Palmer can be seen running his outshape ass trying to catch one of the strippe---Oh I mean employees working at the Inn. It's easy to imagine that any higher up from Public Security would have went on the hunt for Barrett but Corneo either offered or was roped into sending his lackeys instead. Highly likely that Public Security was doing sus shit like setting up perimeters next to maintenance access areas around the pillar in edition to them quarantining undercity folks. And Barrett being Barret and having Shinra assume blame for EVERYTHING went in guns blazing. The trap door leads to Corneo's pet's den as well as a route to a safe room Corneo is holding himself over in. Maybe....um...his MEN built it, Dart? Shinra doesn't control the world. They simply have the exclusivity of harnessing the planet's life force. They also have several privatized industries including a military that blows the fuck out of any army on the planet so it'd be nearly impossible to challenge them. Even Wutai couldn't. They only fought back because their home was in danger of being turned into a reactor site. Made perfectly clear in loading screens that the Upper Expressway is still under construction and not ready for public use. Don't ask me how the gang ended up on it though
Jessie was not a demolitions expert, she was a dancer/actress at the gold saucer, until her dad's accident working for Shinra. Shinra's refusal or inability to take care of her dad led her to join avalanche, and it's sort of implied she learned how to make bombs on the internet or something.
That VR bit was perfect, lol. Someone, please draw or animate that!

@@patrickhill2595 That's not his point. Dartigan's point is that it makes it out to be like some grand bomb when it shouldn't. He brings that up in the 6th sin pointing out that very fact. What Dartigan meant was, for all intents and purposes that Avalanche knew the bomb Jesse designed should only be enough to destroy the pump and so its power should be very minimized but Jesse and the game makes it out to be like a grand huge explosion that you need upwards of 30 minutes to get away to safety. That's a red flag for you because why would a bomb designed to do barely any damage warrant such a distance for safety. Instead it should have been set for a small time like 1 minute or 30 seconds. For the way the bomb is made out to be, it doesn't feel like Jesse is telling the truth of how contained and weak it is.
KamenMod fair point.
The plan was to sneak in, killing guards as necessary, set the bomb to explode after they leave, then leave so as to not attract too much attention. The massive explosion was "explained" as being a reaction with the Mako, something that is not an issue when Jessie is just trying to blow up a door, besides the fact that the other alternative at that moment was to stay in a hallway that was continuing to collapse around them.
You missed the part where even though a giant 500-foot thick plate with an entire city built on top fell onto the slums of the Sector 7 slums, you could actually search the slums for survivors under an open sky with no evidence that there was ever an upper plate in the first place.
this confused me for weeks, as i beat it a while ago. It was actually this video where I watched the plate fall again. Because the way it fell, the part closest to the center spills over and this leaves an open spot in the middle. The town avalache are in must be positioned right under the pillar in order for this to work. but seriously though, I swear u and I are the only 2 people who were like "sector 7 plate falls down on sector 7 slum, why does the slums still exist?"
@@georgehatzimanolakis1904 you guys are not alone (_ _) i was so sad when i saw that. that part ruined the game for me (and after i saw some more gameplay, i understood it was just the beginning)
Dallas Staryu That is a good point.
I like how no one ever mentions the population living atop the plate. The game states 50k live in the undercity slums (which my experience in the slums would contradict but whatever, I can accept it). If 50k live under it, then maybe 500k live on top. High-rise apartments and proper housing, layout, infrastructure etc on the plate would result in a considerably more densely populated area than the wooden shacks and lack of infrastructure found in the undercity. More people could live in that little bit of the Sector 8 plate we go through at the start of the game than all the slums we explore combined. But nope, never mentioned.
@@benwhiley9680 yeah, like, Shinra technically lost more than saved. It's mindless, why would drop a section of the city, on TOP of ANOTHER *SECTION OF THE C I T Y ?!*
8:11 Biggs is Charlie Sheen. He is Charlie Sheen from Platoon. I’ll keep saying it until it catches on. Lol
The person that recognizes Cloud in the Shinra building is Kunsel, who is actually a 2nd Class SOLDIER. He was already 2nd class when Cloud came along in Crisis Core as a novice and is Zack's friend. I imagine that Zack likely introduced Cloud to Kunsel. But here, he's dressed in the infantry uniform Cloud also wore. Kunsel sends a rather...sulky and sultry email to Zack in CC that makes it clear that gathering information is a specialty of his (and may have professed his love for Zack, lol) and maybe infantry fits him better (actually, being a Turk would probably be best). But that still doesn't make sense with him training alongside Cloud when he was in SOLDIER at that time. Another continuity error, Square Enix :)
I played the original FF7 4 times, the first when I was 12 and the last this year in january and february at my 34 to remember the original game before playing the Remake, while playing it this year my main feeling was "it's impossible to make this game better even with today’s technology" and I was right but barely. I found the Remake surprisingly good and it even made me cry here and there( I know that is a big nostalgic thing that only hardcore and old fans might get) but I wasn’t disappointed at all. Of course there are some things that don’t work or are boring like some sidequests and extremely long areas that are meant to make the game longer. For me the positive aspects are amazing and bad things are just meh, nothing too bad.
The opinion of someone who cries simply because of the Remake itself and not the actual sad moments is completely irrelevant.
AzureRoxe so irrelevant that you have to reply. Btw, I clearly said I cried here and there so how do you know in which moments ?
"Sephiroth is really good at ASMR" Me : Laughing till stomachache🤣🤣
Cloud: You really hear that? Barret: Yeah. Cloud: Get help. Me: Damn, Cloud! People usually need to eat an apple to look like THAT much of an asshole!
If you look at it from Clouds perspective he's not being an asshole at all. Barret genuinely comes off as a fanatical loon him telling him to get help makes sense.
Cloud having crazy anime feats during cutscenes in the remake is just like Snake having those in Twin Snakes while not having them in MGS1
In both cases, it WAS the PSX as well as before Chrono Cross and others proved that it could be done. I'm willing to bet they likely either didn't yet know they could pull it off, or it would have needed them to make more discs and cut-off points. Regarding Twin Snakes, it should be brought up that Kojima DID sign off on the deviations.
