How can you call it the ultimate review without discussing the story, the main thing I loved about the original was the amazing story, disappointing not watching this bloated video then. I don't mind if they changed the story but just want to know if they nailed it or not, does it set up the final part well, oh well I will wait

    After 70 hours I am only in the middle of chapter 10. I absolutely love this game. Its above and beyond Remake. And I really enjoyed Remake. Its hands down the best open world game I have ever played and the first one where I do not get tired of the side activities because you never do anything for too long and the level design changes all the time and you have to actually think a bit about your traversal. This is shaping up to be one of the best games I have ever played.

      @bukojoetheslapsoils8273 after seeing how the Remake team is connecting all the ff7 spin offs together (which requires alot of tweaks to the story), I have no doubt in my mind that they could salvage and patch up the ff8 story. It would be amazing. However I don't think it's gonna happen, because in an exclusive interview that premiered at last night's theatric premiere of Advent Children, they confirmed they are tying in EVERY ff7 spinoff into the main series. Which to me means...they're gonna be busy with ff7 for a while.

      @@vonclaren1 no worries. Here's what I recall and found again. Certainly not outright talking shit, but definitely not praising either. I think a lot of critics and content creators depend on melodrama, exaggeration and pretentiousness to evoke reactions. FFU and Darryl specifically, however, don't utilize such tactics and are courteous, respectful and perhaps most importantly unpretentious in their work and presentation. I'm confident this is just how he feels about the game, as opposed to being fake about it.
      12:43 (regarding skills)
      “the only downside to all of this relates to one crucial decision around winder progression. When the Final Fantasy VII remake project was announced there was a hope that the games would be interconnected. Nobody really expected there to be a one to one transition of items, weapons and abilities from one game to the other, but the expectation was there that they would at least reference one another. In the buildup to launch it was shared that this interconnectivity would unfortunately be almost nonexistent. It’s understandable why the decision was taken, but it’s also disappointing. Especially considering games like Shenmue-which launched so long ago-used this to great effect. Between Shenmue 1 and 2, money accrued would transfer over as well as collectibles and any abilities Ryu had learned. This then made it exciting for players that they would be given the option to play the game from scratch or pick up where they left off and have their first play through be akin to a new game plus off the bat. With Rebirth choosing to ignore everything players accomplished in Remake, it’s a bit hard to swallow. You go from having Tifa be a one woman wrecking machine that can destroy Weiss in just over twenty seconds to a Tifa that has almost all of her abilities removed with no narrative context provided. And to then pour salt over the wound, it can take tens of hours to re-learn those abilities just to get back to where you were at the end of the previous game.”
      15:41 (regarding exploration)
      “Collecting world intel starts off as an intriguing task, but as you venture to more and more regions it does start to become a bit monotonous. And this is due to the lack of variety. There’s nothing revolutionary here. Each activity simply involves going to a specified location and either interacting with something or fighting against a unique variant of regional monster.”
      18:14 (regarding quests)
      “For many, Rebirth will again fall short. And there are some real duds in there such as a specific quest where you have to coax some chickens with a can.”
      22:13 (on presentation)
      “Those playing Performance Mode will notice a clear blur in comparison to Quality Mode. But in the wider context the visual enhancements between Rebirth and Remake are quite minimal. Rebirth still features a mix of high and low resolution textures, and there were even concerns around this following the release of specific trailers in the build-up to launch as models and assets were not rendering in the correct manner. And you’ll see this when playing the game, as character models will just look out of place due to how low resolution they sometimes are by comparison. One of the challenges this time around is just being the sheer scale. And that's where Rebirth does deserve to be cut some slack. Whereas Remake was quite condensed due to its focus on just Midgar, Rebirth is the polar opposite. It features huge, pseudo-open world areas that each have contrasting visual styles. And even the numerous towns and locations have a specific aesthetic. The challenge is that everything looks great on the surface, but its clear that compromises had to be made in order to accommodate for the sheer scale of Rebirth. When you start looking closer, those compromises start to become quite a bit apparent. Taking the positives here though, Rebirth is a very bright and colorful game serving as a complete contrast to Remake. And at no point does the game look terrible, it just doesn’t perhaps represent the visual jump people might have been expecting from a game that is a successor to a game from the previous console generation that launched four years ago.”

      @@ErenDenizMert Just circumstantial evidence. Given the past patterns though, I'm confident it is the case. These guys have been going to E3, Gamescom, and Tokyo Game Show as far back as 2009 (They only started making content in 2008) according to their website. If you didn't know, E3 is not a public event like a convention. Even TGS, while it is open to the public, is friggin expensive. Just seems weird and unlikely that an indepedent group of fanatics would just happen to get to go to E3 (back when it actually was worth going to) within only a year of starting their business. These guys also have no negative opinions to speak of. If they do speak negatively, it's in reference to how other players might have felt, but never their own feelings. I'll grant that it's possible SquEnix doesn't directly pay their bills, but they most likely do trade invitations and other stuff for nonstop hype.

    The thing that really hooked me into the new trilogy was how they stretched Remake.

    @FinalFantasyUnion I’ve seen a few people that have thrown out a theory that Jenova in ff7 is actually Yunalesca in ff10. Could you guys possibly do a theory crafting video on this? I think it would be a really interesting rabbit hole to go in to.

      @@nightfears3005 I mean yunalesca was never sent to the farplane by Yuna and we’ve seen that people who aren’t sent to the farplane can end up having unique changes to their body’s. So it’s not a stretch to say that when the citizens of spira end up going to gaia, yunalesca in a fit of rage try’s to follow after them and eventually does find gaia. Also I’d like to point out that in ff7 advent children, when the main antagonist (honestly I forgot the guys name but it’s been well over 10 years since I last watched it) dies in cloud’s arms the scene of him “turning into the lifestream” literally has him turning into pyreflies just before turning into the lifestream. It could also be said that (and I know this could be a bit of a stretch) the Cetra could actually be descendants of the summoner’s from spira and that the materia that we use for magic and summons ourselves is in fact crystallized lifestream. The reason why it’s done this way is because it was a practice that was passed on from spira's own sphere grid.

And I believe they even altered Complete to Match that all as well. But he ended it with saying exactly what they are doing with the next few parts and afterwards as well. It also had a special trailer that was pretty revealing for those who could pick out the WAIT ..STOP HOLD UP moments.
