Barret thanks the Whisper for his plot armor
I verbally laughed at that
This was so funny haha
If you let the Leah Lipps phenotype suck you up you will become aware.
I wish I had plot armor. I wouldn't be temporarily crippled right now.
Take barret life instead other character life lol so Aerith can be definity save...we all love sexy pretty Aerith over Barret lol
Barret and the plot armor joke got me
The Advent Children reference 40:58
12:35 another one of Onis hidden jokes. Aerith repeating her name so there are no mistakes makes fun of the 97 English translation of her name being Aeris lol
Nice Catch!
EDIT: No, Marlene is NOT Tifa and Barret's kid. I just speak quickly when saying "Tifa, and Barret's daughter, Marlene". Apologies for causing any misunderstandings.
I wrote a review for FF7R, check it out : th-cam.com/video/Ss7qaoQDG9k/w-d-xo.html
I played the original so I was not confused
XD
RIP Dyne
I mean, this should already be common knowledge
When Oni Black Mage leaves from this world, I hope his grave reads: "Awfully Suspicious"
Or "Departed this world for research purposes."
The Whispers will make sure he has plot armor so he doesn't die.
I love how you weaved in both games :) Thanks for this 👍
This is exactly what a remake is supposed to do. Have beats from the original but also be changed enough to be it's own game. I think many people just wanted a remaster
I find myself agreeing
A remaster would be nice, IMHO
FF7 Remake is honestly one of SE better FF7 projects. I do think a remaster would be awesome but I enjoy the remake games for what they are, which is a very weird sequel/remake of the original series. I have experienced the original so many times so seeing a different take that makes me love the characters even more is a nice change.
I love that they're changing things honestly it's like a pristinely made fan game.
Except a fan game made by the same company that made the original. It's so cool.
You did a great job combining the main story and DLC perspective, thanks again Oni!
And the pun game is on point as always.
Wait what’s the dlc
@@jaebrowne6780 The Yuffie part is DLC.
@@Ragefat damn never knew it even existed I beat it when it came out and never really looked back was gonna replay closer to the release of rebirth
@@jaebrowne6780 Just be aware the DLC is not available on PS4.
When you really think about it, I can see why it’s called a remake. Not only because of the graphical upgrades and new gameplay mechanics, but the characters are now remaking their fates from the original game.
Thank you for the effort you're videos and voice are so soothing
This recap made a lot of the game make more sense
Funny because the original had a fairly simple plot with a good twist. Leave it to Nomura to over complicate it.
Great summary! Loved it EDIT: OMG THAT WAS JESSIE'S GLOVES!!?!?!?!?!?!
Love your channel and what you do man! all the best to you.
Great recap 👏 love the way you elaborate
Another great Recap Oni. So close to hitting 100k! Well deserved
Agreed on both points!
20:28 honeybee manor “research purposes” line makes it in here too 😂😂
Also job ,you always do a great job. End up learning more and more about the ending .thank you
Great recap, thanks!!
Love these videos. Keep it up! My first recapitation was for crisis core 🔥
I was WAITING for this one
I've been waiting for this!!!!
Thanks for the summary. I was never a fan of 7 but was mildly interested in the remake plot. Appreciate the explanation!
The remake plot is time travel garbage. Just play the og game.
36:20 Red XIII join Those Who Fight Further. A nod to the games boss battle theme. My goal now is to find Oni's hidden puns and references
Welcome to the Secret Mission!
Nice review!
Yes been waiting for this 🙌 even though I already played it
I never made the connection but I can now see so many similarities between FFVII and FFVIII after watching this video recapping the VII remake.
- Sefer is the evil dude in FFVIII (in the beginning) and Sefiroth is the bad guy throughout the whole of VII. Sefer and Sefiroth have similar sounding names inspired by Kabbalah (Sephiroth) and Sefer meaning book in Hebrew
- Squall is a soldier. Cloud is a soldier.
- VII is set in a cyberpunk fantasy universe whilst VIII is set in a modern day science fantasy universe
- Both VII and VIII have military themes
- Jenova is "mother" for Sefiroth and Edea who starts off as an antagonist is the mother of SeeD and all the main characters.
- Squall is an aloof introverted orphan who can't remember his past whilst Cloud is an ex-soldier who can't remember his past
- Rinoa is kinda like Tifa and Aerith.
- Sefer is the sorceress knight for Edea, then for Ultimecia, whilst Sefiroth is a similar thing for his mother Jenova.
- Selfie is the spunky goofy girl, Yuffie kinda has that to her as well.
- Vincent is the sniper lady's man, Vincent is a gun vampire dude.
- Ultimecia is a sorceress from the future and the last boss, Jenova plays a major role in the antagonism story and she's an alien from outer space.
Probably got the details slightly wrong. But yeah. A lot of crossover in the story lines.
The ending battles to the ending of the game were just so damn good!!
Cloud: Impossible you're dead. I killed you!
Sephiroth: Yea you killed me. So where I am suppose to go?, Detroit?
Thank you for this detailed recap.
Did Sephiroth do this? NO, it was the madman, Oni Black Mage! Thanks for all you do!!
I remember playing this game when it now dropped
Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank god you finally got a better mic.. I’ve skipped through all of your previous videos because your voice audio is just too rough to sit through and pay attention to. I like your new sound and would implore you to revisit some of your older content (Remastered) haha ^.^ thank you so much for your clear dedication I will be following you from here on out!
I just finished Rebirth, and I cannot wait for you to tackle that
This recap is so good I don't know if I should play the game again in 10 years when Rebirth comes out or just watch this again. Superb work, mate!
came to this vid after the Rebirth trailer today :)
You mean 10 months =D
That 10 years went by really fast lol
@@lucasharris9696 lol Enjoy Rebirth
I'm looking forward to how they explore the more open world part of ff7 after Midgar. Fantastic job as always Oni!
i love this game so much, the characters, atmosphere, gameplay etc.. it’s the game that got me into rpgs in general
Although the OG FF7 is my most favorite game of all time, the Remake and its following titles look to be a close 2nd. Thanks for the awesome vid.
That’s one way to keep the series going
Goated channel
thank you 💐
Not sure why people keep calling this a remake. It's not. It's a new game/story that just happens to have the word "Remake" in the title.
So far, just going by part 1, I'm really loving Remake. and I'm looking forward to the next two parts. I know many people are now concerned that the game will start going off in a completely different direction from this point forward, and won't be FFVII anymore. People say the story is ruined, and the themes of the original have been butchered, etc. Maybe I'm setting myself up for massive disappointment here, but I'm just not ready to jump to that conclusion quite yet. There's still so much we don't know about what actually happened at the end. We don't even know for certain that Zack is actually alive in an alternate timeline. Was that even an alternate timeline we saw, or did Sephiroth find some way to mess with the planet's memories, making both the player and Zack himself believe that he survived, when he's really dead? Maybe there's another explanation that no one has considered yet, and all current theories are actually dead wrong. I just don't feel right declaring the entire Remake Project a failure, or a betrayal of expectations, when there's so much we don't know. FFVII has a history of deceiving players through the use of half truths and clever misdirection, so I'm not just going to take the ending at face value. I made that mistake in the original game when I believed Cloud's version of the Nibelheim incident, and look where that got us. The developers have said that they don't intend for the Remake to be a radical departure from the story of FFVII, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now, and wait for some concrete answers on what's really going on with the plot.
So by your logic I gotta watch my boy Zack die again 😢😢😢
@@demarieknight2403 Assuming I'm not totally off the mark here...yeah, pretty much. 😅
ONI!! Thank you, Just thank you!
Such a good story
I am an Xbox gamer and have been trying to hold out on spoilers. I finally broke and found your video to see what story choices changed in my beloved game. This whole thing is wild and I absolutely love it. As much as I adore the original game, I’m glad they gave us some new things to ponder. ❤️ Great video.
It's way more interesting this way to shake things up. To bait everyone into thinking it was a 1:1 remake and instead make a wild sequel makes the conversations way more interesting.
I just finished the video and that was wild! I need more. 😭
20:10 it may be 3 times faster but if you read it’s intentions you can still dodge. When you beat it it explodes like a comet on reentry.
I love how those shadows are basically the heartless in ff7 and Sephiroth acts like Xehanort
Which is why people think Tetsuya Nomura is the mastermind behind the whispers, but it wasn't. He wanted the game to be closer to the original storywise.
Keyblade DLC when??
XD
Great recap as always. I loved this game. There's of course some problems, but there always will in any form of writing. I think the only parts of this game I didn't like were the whole train grave yard part and having Biggs and Wedge survive. Lastly is more an issue with FF7 overall rather than just FF7R in that for as big a deal as SOLDIER is in this story they seem to just disappear after Crisis Core, and as far as I can tell/remeber the events there don't really justify or imply Shinra just throwing them away. I think Roche was a very weak attempt at addressing this, they even mention Kunsel and have you fight some operatives in game. Now my hope is that they actually did this so they wouldn't interfere too heavilly in shaping this story in Midgar, but now that we've beaten the Wispers the writers intend to bring in more SOLDIER story (Thinking probably with Zack, but I'll be PISSED if he somehow goes back to working for Shinra). Sky's the limit and excited to see what they do. Also as a side note I don't watch trailers and look for spoilers so if you already know the answer shut the hell up and keep it to yourself XD
*I LOVE how bold the visual style is.*
The lads in the game have most tender female faces, not even a cute lad faces.
If every one wish what happened to The next chapter, I would love to see the creator make a different in the original story. Example Aerith do not need to die to stop the meteor impact and come back to meet zack. (And that up to the players to decide what to do to saves them both)
With Street Fighter 6 coming out, will you do a Recap of Street Fighter V: A Shadow Falls?
Also. Recap Touhou Koumakyou ~ The Embodiment Of Scarlet Devil as well?
I believe that They will let Zack and Aerith live in this new FFVII... depending on what you do during the game... not sure if they will make it as an alternate ending or canon...
Hart is more than an assistant. He's the Deputy Mayor.
Gosh
This game was so good!
Zack is alive some how and that's all I care about ❤
Omg, at the end of the original Final Fantasy 7 “Sephiroth” had the power of a God by the end of the game, he split himself in two to use the power to rewrite fate meaning can save Aerith in seven seconds before the shadow Sephiroth drops down and kill Aerith.
Can you do one for Tactics Ogre Let Us Cling Togather?
I liked the version I played on PS1
But I’ll never forget
Orgasmic Dream
(Name of a post-game stage. Tooltip states the map is “a garden the king built for his child”)
XD
Question. Does Intergrade and ff7 remake all one game or did u piece both games together the make the story smoother to follow?
Intergrade is the enhanced port of both Remake and Intermission (Yuffie DLC). You normally play them separately, but I combined them for the recap.
@@OniBlackMage that makes sense. I have ff7 but not the expansion.
Only thing im hating on with all this ff7 remake stuff is its as if "before crisis" never happened. Im a huge ff7 lore head and it not even being mentioned at all is killing me 😢
will you do the xenoblade games and the rest of the persona series at some point?
One of those things I am working on now
Damn you! No spoiler alert!
When I first beat this game I immediately went outside to work on digging my patio, and the meditation of labor did wonders for me organizing my thoughts. I absolutely hated the ending, not because they changed things, which would be reasonable since they claimed it was going to be a faithful remake and it’s clearly some KH time travel nonsense. What I hated was that there are no stakes, virtually everyone we encounter lives and only numbers of nameless die off screen. Worse still is that it takes the game we fell in love with, that we came to re-experience along with new players who aren’t into older games, and it treats it as if it was the “bad ending” and only by doing it all right can we get the good ending. All the meaning behind the tragedy of the OG game is washed away in place of this kid gloves crap. That said, as time has passed, I’m more ok with it, I still believe everything I thought them I just care a whole lot less, and maybe what they do with it will end up actually being cool, but my expectations are shot. If part 2 looks good I’ll give it a chance but I found most of what they added to be mindless time wasting filler and most of the changes to feel pretentious, so yeah, happy to be proven wrong but I won’t be getting my hopes up.
So basically FF7R literally is telling us "We're changing the original that was loved by the fans, and we even wrote in some reason as to why stuff won't be the same"...
Kinda disappointing tbh. Vid is great tho!
Now you need to play intermission
The content with Yuffie and the ending with the party arriving at Kalm was from Intermission, I just arranged it in chronological order.
I expect to be irritated that Zack isn't dead. Given that the Whispers every action was to maintain the timeline, they should have made sure he died trying to enter Midgar. Perhaps they will justify it later.
Uhhh... Marlene isn't Barrett and Tifa's daughter...
LOL Phrasing. Funny how that turned out.
I said:
Tifa
and
Barret's Daughter, Marlene
You heard:
Tifa and Barret's Daughter,
Marlene
how long did it take to write and edit this?
Worth it
I definitely think that Aerith and Sephiroth are from the original game and the next 2 games are going to diverge from the original pretty hard
Not sure if i like the advent of the whispers.
God I hate how they shoehorned sephiroth in every 15 mins for fan service. " Remember this guy"," he's the bad guy. Remember".
Why can’t we play as Red XIII
So 10 more years before the next release of FF7 Remake?
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Winter 2023
4:45
I- I didn't know that Tifa was the mom. So, Tifa and Barrett are supposed to be a thing? Then why are people Shipping Cloud and Tifa? Did Tifa and Barrett simply have a fling and ended it before Marlene was born? What did I miss?! Someone tell me!
Edit: Just googled it, technically the girl is adopted.
Barret adopted Marlene after the death of his friend Dyan at the hands of Scarlett and Shinra Secueity detail. Tifa is not her adoptive mother or in a romantic relationship with Barret. She just watches over her for Barret.
I have mixed feelings about the remake. Other than that, I have a feeling that this takes place in an alternate universe. That theory aside, I hope Cloud and Yuffie cross paths so they can help each other as team members of Cloud's party. Also, Cait Sith looks so cute!❤🧡💛💚💙💜
It does, the original FF7 PSX story you love is intact and completely unaffected by this game.
so marlene is barret's and tifa's kid?
Not at all, no. Tifa and Barret aren't a couple.
All good except I’m pretty sure Marlene is not tifa’s mother😂
No worries, she's not
This was so fun to play and watch so glad the did just copy the original
Story: F..CKING CONFUSING!
Even if it was a 1:1 remake .. the "magic" wouldn't be there. I'm holding full judgement until at least the second bit... so with less then 1/3rd of the story out.. all I can really comment on is the gameplay. Which is ?fine?.
Wow ... but ya this remake is something ...and i gonna ask WHY change it
FF 7 is like THE jrpg everyone speak so mighty and respect and then have the final portions ....and i feel sorry for nomura but can blame people knowing his reputations, is mostly kitase who come up whit this mess up idea .
I feel like I am the only person who thinks this game direction is so bad. Why did it have it stray so far away from the original?
Recap was great, good job Oni. You the man.
I loved the game, however, it feels like a weird alternative time line where Cloud and Aerith and 'seeing' what happened in the original game and will eventually try to change things and divert from the original story
RECAPITULATION ****
The show name RECAPitation is a portmanteau of Recapitulation + Decapitation 👍
@@OniBlackMage okay Portmanteau is now the worst of the week for me. Many thanks 🙏
Marlene is not Tifa and Barret’s daughter
Also why did you only do the Tifa and Aerith resolution scenes and not Barret’s? Seems odd to not include it.
And Aerith doesn’t SEE 2 timelines. It’s implied that she maybe senses Zack. Whether that’s literally or just feels him (cause that’s the spot he died) isn’t sure.
1. I did not say that, you misheard me
2. I did include it, I even started with him
3. Seeing is a sense my guy 🙃. Aerith often sees and senses stuff others don't along this storyline, but I suppose we'll see next game
FF7 Remake...... EVERYONE LIVES, Avalanche isn't responsible for the loss of innocent life, The only part of the game where Shinra is the main antagonist is now overshadowed by Sephiroth, everyone wants to F' Cloud, and the slums are filled with optimimism. Just what we wanted
Wait what the fuck? Zack lives?
Multiverses give me diarrhea.
I’m so conflicted still about the game. Like I play games if they’re good, regardless of whether or not the story stands up for remakes. But this one hit a nerve because 7 was one of my all time favorites. On one hand I see how it’s a reinvigorating story and all that. However the other side fucking hates it cuz it’s ruining the story in a seemingly fan service way. Like it’s OK FOR CHARACTERS TO DIE JFC. Stop obsessing over fan service of saving every loved character. And also the whole time play thing(the trope of future, present and last all intertwine) almost never works out. And tbh it didn’t work out in the first installment. Also I get we don’t know exactly what all the characters were up to before we met them in the original, but the whole yuffie gameplay and also the dirge of Cerberus villains thing is ridiculous due to the added specter thing of them protecting the “natural” timeline. Cuz with dialogue and all that in the original game, yuffie never definitely did any of that. So why didn’t the specters stop all of that?
Yeah intense hand massage.😂😂😂😂😂
So there is NO understandings this time.
I'm i the only one who thinks Seportoth might be a secret good guy in this new game. He's changing his fate, creating a new unknown world but he feels different. Maybe he wants something else.
I thought this game was wonderful and can’t wait for the second part in the remake series. For reference my first Final Fantasy was 4 back on the SNES (or 2 back then lol). Too many fans now days are easily butt hurt because the franchise “doesn’t live up to their expectations “. As a long term fan I disagree wholeheartedly. Every Final Fantasy (mainline at least) is great just in very different ways. Final Fantasy as a series has always been about change. If you don’t understand that, then that’s more on you than the games. Maybe go play a western RPG instead? Save the good and innovative stories for us people who enjoy them.
All I wanted was a REMAKE from a game called Final Fantasy VII Remake. Not an alternate history. Update graphic maybe patch some plot holes with some dumb excuses. And bam. Controversial opinion: FF7 wasn’t that good to begin with. It was a servicable game that many look back fondly because it was their first FF game but I played the original NES game I don’t have those memories clouding my judgement and it was the start of the horrible retro-futuristic setting which is hit or miss (a lot more misses)
I hate the whole whispers thing and the kingdom hearts style ending fighting with destiny and just the whole ending in general. Great recap
watching this has confirmed my decision not to buy this game.
The remake has nothing to do with the original,it's more censored,they added some extra and unnessesary scenes and some others things in the story,total waste of money and time!
Got the game, played for 1 hour, never touched it again.
I never understood the ending or that the game is basically defying the continuity of the original FF7 its given me a better outlook on what's to come
Trails to zero recap incoming? In all seriousness, massive fan of your content and do wish that you will eventually cover all the Kiseki games for as long as YT stays alive (your channel will def be eternal my man). 👍
That's the plan!
