12 hours into this game and im only on chapter 2, but ive done all the world intel in the grasslands and now im working on sidequests and battle sim. This game is insane
Kinda sounds like copium. Game of the year don’t get me wrong. But world intel is incredibly repetitive. So for sure a weird flex, enjoy the story whenever u get a chance to play it
I'm in early Chapter 7 and I only just obtained Titan's summon materia, and even that was with Titan at his weakest....not that I was in desperate need of Titan since I already had the DLC & Save Data Bonus summons of Leviathan, Ramuh, & Magic Pot. Though it will be interesting to see how strong 4-star Titan is compared to Leviathan or Ramuh. I want to get Phoenix's materia too, but I can't figure out what I have to do to get to the last crystal for Phoenix, since it's in an area blocked by NPCs who won't let me pass. Though I could be easily missing something that should be obvious, as I can be kinda oblivious at times.
The pheonix is not blocks you just have to go around the long way. I got all three without having to go past the npc. To the right on the junon map there is a huge wooden bridge near the huge sunken ships
There may be one or two people who don’t realize this: it’s a lot easier to master your weapon’s skills by just doing Chadley’s Simulator battles. Once you unlock that at Chocobo Bill’s Ranch just do the single character battles and use your skills until they’re learned. It’s a lot faster that way than by doing it in normal battles and you need to do those simulator battles anyway because you get a lot of great materia from those battles! You start out with virtually no materia, but knocking out Chadley’s VR battles will load you up with some good materia for your characters. It’s a two for one, baby! Edit: Pro-Tip! You can pet the Chocobo Chick and you must give it a head scratch and rub every time. EVERY TIME. I absolutely hate the new Upgrade Weapon system; I really wish they would have just kept the one from Remake.
If you’re running low on Items such as Potions and Ethers you can easily farm them to 99 each in locations with several stacked Shinra crates. After destroying them Save and then Load the current save. Rinse and Repeat until reaching 99 of an item.
@@folarinadebo4443 As of 3/8/24 this still works even for resources in the open world. After getting resources, Save and then Load the most recent save. Rinse and repeat. Resources will cumulatively add up.
You can do arial combat with the buster sword alone.... Hold circle, hold square, then your in the air. Combo away, dodge too, hold square while in the air, to keep the combo going everytime you dodge midair. fight like Cloud is known for. Enjoy.
It's awesome how there's a video that opens with cloud's best weapon and I found it on my own lol. That's what happens when you completely scour every section in an area before moving on. I thought he was gonna say a different weapon I completely missed lol
@@alexanderdumas- right lol? I found it and thought "okay, this weapon is better than the one I've got equipped. Good sh!t!" Who would've known that was his best weapon that early in the game lol
This game needs to have an auto pickup option like Horizon and many other open world RPGs where you don't have to stop every 2 seconds or keep hitting the triangle button just to be able to pick up things I know you could pick up more of them at once when you're on a joke about but we should just be able to run past them and collect them
Use your focused moves for everyone when an enemy is pressured to significantly increase their stagger bar. Especially thrust and shot. Changed my life in remake.
Beautifully done. Some helpful info as I’m still at the beginning of the game. Right to the point and extremely clear. Great tips. I just subscribed. Thanks!
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but weapons also have a proficiency bonus that is listed in the equipment menu when you change weapons. If you go after these bonuses, the proficiency goes up quicker. For Sleek Saber, for example, the bonus is to exploit an enemy’s weakness. So if you use the skill on an enemy weak to Ice, you’ll still get proficiency exp (i believe), but you will get more if you use it on an enemy weak to fire or lightning.
And the funny thing is that in the Grasslands you have these blue elephants who are weak against fire and ice (i believe), so if you have Sleek Saber you get that one super fast if you use it's ability, wich also kills them insanely fast.
@@RedMoonFlarethis parts confuses me a bit, I think they are somewhat in different timelines, since you saw red, Barret, tifa and aerith in midgar but at the same time you play as them outside 🤔 Don't tell me if you already saw more, I'm only in the open world part around Kalm 🤣🤣
Well I did miss it, but that's cause I did not follow the path and just opened up the map and entered the area to trigger the cut scene from a side where the chest is not visible 🤣
@Dsrgreyy you only get the steelbook if you dish out an extra 30 bucks, which is ridiculous. I bought the deluxe when the remake came out, but it was only 10 bucks more. Greedy ass devs lol.
thanks I can't believe I made a RPG rookie mistake and I have been ignoring that red bird. I bet the one marker I can't figure out to reach is where it is taking me.
Wow, what a great set of tips. I've watched a few FF7 rebirth tips videos on TH-cam but yours has been the best so far. Thanks so much. Going to subscribe now.
Everything you've explained you just learn anyway by playing the game. The useful tip though is to not buy the sword. What do you think of the game? I'm only 13hrs in but I really like the side quests, mini games and being able to just roam around on Chocobos finding treasure etc.
@@papa_sloth_gaming547 I’ve only played the tutorial hand, but so far I absolutely do not like it and have no interest in playing. I love Triple Triad and still happy play that game even in 2024, but I don’t think that Queen’s Blood is my particular cup o’ tea. That could change, of course, should I play another hand or two but as of right now I don’t like the game at all.
@rondyreeves4772 Yeah, it's definitely not for everyone. I like that they tried to add something different, but I would have preferred the Coin game from FF9.
@@papa_sloth_gaming547I actually like queens blood. Which is kinda odd for me cause I usually don't get much into card games but actually found myself liking this one. My wife gets mad at me though, she likes watching me play games and gets into the storyline and well as you know setting around playing card games don't advance the storyline lol yeah she's not really a gamer but she loves watching me play games
When you first start this game, you are kinda overloaded with info. This video is meant to help you process all of the info you’ve learned within the first few hours. Really helped me, and I’m sure it helped the other 200k viewers.
Pro tip...... Only fast travel IF you really must, the game rewards you for walking or using a chocobo (and the buggy in the corel dustbowl region) I used fast travel a lot on my first try and found on my second that not fast travelling is the way forward Edit : once you have visited Costa del sol and picked up the pedometer pin for the wheelie master side task, give it to a party member you use least, put it on them and then going forth walking IS extremely profitable as you get 1 gil for every 100 steps, this doesn't seem a lot but I've earned 30000+ gil just from the gongaga region alone
It’s crazy how much better part 2 is than 1, but you still should be able to transfer all your stuff from the first part to the second and second into the 3rd game
Yeah, I was hoping you would be able to do that too. If are are NEW just have a new game option, and if you transfer your stuff you immediately just continue
I think every game that have ai as party members should have a system that goes deeper into making your members better and more usefull, especially if it's real time combat.
Learned two new things. Thanks! But can you pet the chocobo chick after fixing the stop without getting off your chocobo? I must find out because I always give them a pet before leaving 😆
I’m only in the calm lands just unlocked chocobo ranch so idk bout later in the game but 2 things I don’t like so far … lack of combat and lack of things to do.. I ran across the map to find several buildings and ruins with nothing in them not even an enemy to fight like wtf.. I’ll keep playing hoping it gets more active
i’m so excited for this game. i’m so excited to do hard mode second run through so i can make my parties without cloud 😭 thank you for showing all of this! i’m sure its obvious but are yuffie and cait sith are leveled to your party when you get them?
I wish i caught this video sooner. Looking up guides to make sure i don't miss anything in the grasslands. Other videos on "early game stuff" shows clips and cutscenes from well past the grasslands...showing other weapons being used that can be found later in the game. It's annoying. This all said...I appreciate your video only covering grassland content only. Very helpful stuff here, im 12 hours in so far and feel im still trying to figure so much out...especially with the combat. I have encounters where i just barely make it out alive.
Havnt played yet but I can guarantee you that its way bigger than 15. I believe its the entire game map from the original. However, keep in mind you cant explore everything all at once. The game will open up slowly. You will have to go through a bit of story funnels and then youll be able to explore more and more. You CAN go back to previous areas so eventually, the FULL open world will be available to you. Hope that helps!
@johnny2shoes738 I mean 15 was pretty big but it was mostly empty, this map could be smaller but feel way larger due to the sheer amount of stuff there is to do compared to the lifeless empty game 15 ended up being
You mentioned that you always have to have Cloud in the party - I haven't started my playthrough yet but this isn't consistent with what I've read elsewhere, that you can change party leader and run a party without him. Just wanted to verify!
When you just barely got a PS5 and missed out on Intergrade, thus missing out on Ramuh...... sad soldier noises. I wonder if I could load it up right now, n then try n get Ramuh even tho I've already started Rebirth?
Cool tips! Here is a tip, just mash square through every combat to win! I didn't even know you could get materia from chadly until the end of the game. Didn't matter, as long as I was.pressing square during battle. What a joke of a game, and a disgrace to the original. 5/10 at best.
I'm used to open world games but this... This is nuts. Whoever said its 100hours to 100% the game either speedran it, skipped cutscenes or were talking out of their ass.
Does anybody know if we will have enough SP to get all the folio abilities or do we have to be pick and choosey. Id also like to know how many abilities we can throw on weapons and what max weapon level is if anybody knows as well as the best way to specifically level weapon.
@@omensoffate yeah but i dont like needing to respec at end game, its a waste of time, so im asking if we will have enough points to max everything by end game like we could in remake
I wonder if the gold chocobo has all the chocobo skills. Assuming they let you breed a Gold Chocobo. Like I wonder if it has rock climbing abilities and super high jump ability.
I played remake, but not the DLC. Is it worth playing now when Rebirth is out already? Also, I have remake obviously on PS4, how do I easiest transfer what is needed from that one to PS5? Great tips btw!
even though i appreciate those kinds of video, but i have to decline. i managed to avoid as much information of this game as possible, and i can finally play this game in 2h. i didn't even watch a single trailer or played the demo (there could be trophies i in ch1 if i played the demo)
I aint hating on that. Do what you gotta do! I dont cover main story spoilers at all but i also understand how anything can be a spoiler! Good luck on your game!
This video gave me so much hype for the game tonight lol, you have no idea. I don’t even care for Cloud, but the gameplay looks so gorgeous and detailed!!
@@cured_bacon647 guess i'm not far enough yet. havent had any info about upgrading the weapon to increase the slots. rn i can only adjust the spezial abillity like atb-boost
Sadly you can’t acquire them like you could in Remake; the Weapon Upgrade system is automatic now and I hate it. On the Upgrade Weapon screen you can see what will unlock next on that weapon - it’s on the right side of your screen. Eventually you will unlock more materia slots on most of the weapons, but you have no control over when and, again, I really hate the new system. I wish that they would have kept the system from Remake.
@@EatTheMarxists To expand on this, your weapons will get more slots, stat bonuses, and weapon skills, as the weapon level increases. This level increases based on the SP you’ve gained with that character, viewable on the weapon upgrade screen. You don’t get as much control as you did in Remake, but at the beginning of the game there is less need for complex materia setups anyway.
@@kthupit would be better and make more since if you played the first one first but you don't necessarily have to and like the other comment said you can always just recap the story and that will suffice
No one made a video about the ability to spam resources yet???? Loot an area, save game reload and loot again, rinse and repeat. The loot isn't always the same for example, emerald became a Ruby after my reload but great at stocking up
You should prob check the views on this channel compared to the other TH-camrs with much larger subscribers. Also I have a close to 500k channel called PhillyBeatzU lol
IMO Aerith is borderline useless. In harder difficulties when Limits are slower to build she's even more useless because she doesn't even have that big heal.
I'll be the first (maybe) to say it.. but we shouldn't have to use an "Auto-Cast" materia on our AI companions. The game should just know when to use certain abilities, or AT LEAST let us use some AI programmable tactics like most other games have in place. That being said, I'll be USING the Auto-Cast materia because otherwise the AI companions are completely useless. It's an action RPG where you have to control 3 party members at all times, which should have been solved for by adding certain tactics options for your AI controlled party members.

Oh man my saved data is on Steam just got the PS5 last month but that is okay more grind for me
40 hours into the game and I'm just walking around costa del sol in swim shorts fighting monsters with a big ass sword 😅
I'm used to open world games but this... This is nuts. Whoever said its 100hours to 100% the game either speedran it, skipped cutscenes or were talking out of their ass.
I actually beat everything at around 97 hours
Does anybody know if we will have enough SP to get all the folio abilities or do we have to be pick and choosey. Id also like to know how many abilities we can throw on weapons and what max weapon level is if anybody knows as well as the best way to specifically level weapon.
You can respec for free
@@omensoffate yeah but i dont like needing to respec at end game, its a waste of time, so im asking if we will have enough points to max everything by end game like we could in remake
If you grab all the SP items yes
@@Toasted_Buttons same here
I love rebirth!😊
You open up talking about how Cloud's swamp sword is one of the best... and never say why.
I wonder if the gold chocobo has all the chocobo skills. Assuming they let you breed a Gold Chocobo. Like I wonder if it has rock climbing abilities and super high jump ability.
I never found one in the game
yeah sadly I'm pretty sure that's all left out haven't beat the game yet thought.
Don't have Aerith as your healer, Barret is clearly the healer, Aerith is a damage machine, especially once you start getting her abilities.
She’s my early game healer but Barrett does sound better and we can make him tanky thanks!!
He was my first choice for main healer
bout the moogle medal farming, can you fast travel between the two places to keep opening boxes or do they refresh on a timer?
haven't experimented with that. But its enough to get what you really need from the emporium
@@PhillyBeatzGames Something I learned late in Remake, but does work in the Rebirth Demo: Save and Reload. It works on boxes and field collectables.
W tip
I played remake, but not the DLC. Is it worth playing now when Rebirth is out already? Also, I have remake obviously on PS4, how do I easiest transfer what is needed from that one to PS5? Great tips btw!
DLC save data good for ramuh. I’d say at least watch the cut scenes for it to understand yuffie back story
@@PhillyBeatzGames Thanks!
even though i appreciate those kinds of video, but i have to decline.
i managed to avoid as much information of this game as possible, and i can finally play this game in 2h.
i didn't even watch a single trailer or played the demo (there could be trophies i in ch1 if i played the demo)
I aint hating on that. Do what you gotta do! I dont cover main story spoilers at all but i also understand how anything can be a spoiler! Good luck on your game!
Found the abandoned dock by chance. It was a gil chest. No weapon inside.
Did you buy the weapon already in kalm?
@@PhillyBeatzGames Yeah, I later found out all weapons are available in the wild. That gil is gone hehe
This video gave me so much hype for the game tonight lol, you have no idea. I don’t even care for Cloud, but the gameplay looks so gorgeous and detailed!!
right!?! its the best JRPG i've ever played
@@PhillyBeatzGames I can just tell based off your gameplay footage that it’s going to be my favorite too!
The chocobo farm gate is closed whenever i saw it. Do i have to go to the dock and progress in the game first?
I hope its easier to upgrade materia this time around.
It deff feel it is!
Do you get a weaker titan if you do the lower difficulty battle with him?
No the lower difficulty = More powered up when you acquire him
That's cool, but i sold my ethers in the beginning of the game and bought it 😅
how do i increase materia slots on my weapons? surely they arent fixed now for each weapon right? couldnt find an option so far
@@cured_bacon647 guess i'm not far enough yet. havent had any info about upgrading the weapon to increase the slots. rn i can only adjust the spezial abillity like atb-boost
just gotta get better weapons
Sadly you can’t acquire them like you could in Remake; the Weapon Upgrade system is automatic now and I hate it. On the Upgrade Weapon screen you can see what will unlock next on that weapon - it’s on the right side of your screen. Eventually you will unlock more materia slots on most of the weapons, but you have no control over when and, again, I really hate the new system. I wish that they would have kept the system from Remake.
@@EatTheMarxists To expand on this, your weapons will get more slots, stat bonuses, and weapon skills, as the weapon level increases. This level increases based on the SP you’ve gained with that character, viewable on the weapon upgrade screen. You don’t get as much control as you did in Remake, but at the beginning of the game there is less need for complex materia setups anyway.
i mean if you do all your intels you find everything , but that first specific sword is literally on the first open world story mission....
If you buy the saber, you get Barrett’s rifle instead
Look at his eyes. He ain’t lying about those 100 hours😂😂😂
BRO LMFAOOO
Hi so I’m totally new to this type of game, not played the other ffs, so will I be ok starting fresh with this game. ? Thanks
You are fine playing this! Just make sure to recap the story of remaster before you start
@@PhillyBeatzGames ok thanks
@@kthupit would be better and make more since if you played the first one first but you don't necessarily have to and like the other comment said you can always just recap the story and that will suffice
@@5150gamingz thanks for the tip
The Yuffie Side story no longer is available. Does this mean I'll never be able to get Ramuh?
No one made a video about the ability to spam resources yet???? Loot an area, save game reload and loot again, rinse and repeat. The loot isn't always the same for example, emerald became a Ruby after my reload but great at stocking up
Making this into a short thanks!!! Does this work on boxes and even things Chocobo has to dig?? Chests too?
For those who don’t want to be spoiled , Just doing everything on the map you can’t miss any of these tips.
theres no spoilers in the video. Lame
The chocobo kid literally tells you that you can go back to kalm lol
i must have ignored him
@@PhillyBeatzGames fair enough 🤣 I've been skipping a lot of npc dialogue
Is this ur new channel. Or is this for all non Nintendo games ?
This is for non pokemon / zelda
Sword wasn't in box at beginning was something else.
Then you bought it from Kalm
Lost me at “unfortunately you’re always stuck with cloud”.
That chest was 1500 gil for me... I bought it for 3k. ;(
So much for early game tips. All these info was given if you just read when the game shows it to you. Blocking his channel for bs info
Dude. You have 6 thousand followers?! How the actual fuck did you get an early access copy??
You should prob check the views on this channel compared to the other TH-camrs with much larger subscribers. Also I have a close to 500k channel called PhillyBeatzU lol
How you can make the air slashes that attack distant enemies? I was able to do it but it dosnt work always
dodge+spam Square fast
What if I completed remake on ps4 but have rebirth on ps5? What do I do then?
I’m in the area next to junon and it won’t let me fast travel back to the area I was in before
You can once you get to junon chocobo farm
IMO Aerith is borderline useless. In harder difficulties when Limits are slower to build she's even more useless because she doesn't even have that big heal.
Or you can just buy it in Kalm for 3000 gil before you even set foot into the grasslands
I'll be the first (maybe) to say it.. but we shouldn't have to use an "Auto-Cast" materia on our AI companions. The game should just know when to use certain abilities, or AT LEAST let us use some AI programmable tactics like most other games have in place. That being said, I'll be USING the Auto-Cast materia because otherwise the AI companions are completely useless.
It's an action RPG where you have to control 3 party members at all times, which should have been solved for by adding certain tactics options for your AI controlled party members.
