Wife: “Why are you crying?”
Me: “Me and Max are having a moment! Go away!!”
lol
Did that actually happen during the stream
Lol just said something similar to my mom XD
Good vibes
"Wife" It's spelled "Mom"
To be told by the very creators of your favorite game of all time that you inspire them to keep up their efforts on daring to remake it...that is insanely touching and surreal.
Lol, anyone who's not understanding this video, refer to this comment...
Thank you so much for sharing that story. I have tears now and I'm an old 40 years old ff7 fan.
It's not only that it was the first RPG that you played at the time. I played more RPGs before it, including Zelda A Link to the Past where I emotionally connected to the game and the gameplay a lot (I am a sensitive kind of person), FF 6, but when I played FF 7 it just resonated way deeper. It's greatest feat is one that is almost impossible to do, and thus, the ultimate difficulty and valuable thing to do in direction and production: it connects the characters with you at an emotional level that no game after it or before it could ever do again, ever. The atmosphere, the setting are so well, so absurdly incredibly well done, the graphics, the music, the events, the childishness, your childishness too helped you feel this with less prejudice, at a higher level, that you captured everything on it, but it's not only your childhood, it's not only your first time. It's the characters, the tenderness, the love, the sadness, the mystery and the setting. No direction could ever achieve this ever again at the same level, it's ultimately complex to do, to work so well and be so wise as to produce a game that makes you feel like the FF 7 characters are a part of your family and you reunite with that lost part of your family and you cry, it's natural, it's such an exquisite, such a highly ellaborate, almost an unknown way of directing a game, of developing a story, that, it makes it the best game of all time.
Tell me just one more game in history that developed it's story, characters, setting and even gameplay at the emotional depth level FF 7 did. That's also why it's the best 2020 game again.
Just tell me one game that has a better gameplay + story + music, the music, setting. Just look at the emotional depth the music has.
You can deploy all the story and story development tricks and perks you want in a movie or videogame, but games and movies that made you cry and managed to engage you with the characters are the games and movies that are best made, that required the deepest of all design complexity.
That's why we all cried and love FF 7, and why we think it's the best 2020 game. When you look at yourself inside, and you recognize those instincts that tell you: this is better even though Persona has a lot of other fancy gameplay shit, the story doesn't begin to compare. You look inside and you balance stuff like "this is more adult" against the feelings that Aeris produces in you, that Cloud, Barret, Tifa, the music generate in you and your instincts know: Final Fantasy is better. That's your instincts knowing what I explained before. But evil people are all vocal about Persona, and TLOU, even though all that violence, genre and sexual preference arguments to give you something "adult" a dull argument to say something is superior, boast of, and being more vocal and not being able to explain what I explained before, and it not being a commonly discussed topic or even something people mention when talking about direction and production, makes the dull argument be more widely spread.
That's why people who defend what their instincts inside tell them, which is what I explained above, like Maximilian, are so important to Final Fantasy 7's name and this story direction with more noble principles, instead of resorting to pure and yellow press violence, realistic themes. What is reality, what is the cement jungle out there if not evil and violence, complete lack of values? Japanese direction and FF 7 preserve good values, even if some are idealistic, and offer a more tender setting with good feelings, contrary to the shit full of prejudice we do in the west.
Comparing the values and principles, and the setting in FF 7 and TLOU is like comparing a mass shooting on TV with violins and piano music. Somehow the people who like, love to watch on TV how X cheated on Y while drunk and then used it to appear on TV or who despise tender, white feelings are more vocal, and try to impose their opinion telling us that their stuff is superior but they are wrong.
When I watch the FF 7 intro with Aeris being a flower girl and then the camera panning out to the city (the iron jungle) with all the cool lights and the exuberant display of wealth, and power of it, she is against all that, alone by herself, and she still has hope, when I see that I see a metaphor of all the people who say other games with other more artificial elements are better. Her hope and her feelings against the artificiality. And in the end she has the truth, not them. She is unique, she is alone, but she knows a better truth. Your instincts know that truth too. It's surreal when I watch the intro and it ends up indirectly being a visual metaphor for the real world talk about what's better.
Thank you so much for sharing, Max and others!
For me, FF7 has an emotional connection because I watched my best friend play 90% of the game, before I myself owned a Playstation or the game on PC. My best friend committed suicide at 18, nearly 20 years ago.
I already loved the characters, the story and the battle/materia systems, so that personal connection made my love all the more profound.
FF7 is truly a story about the bond of friendship and how our daily thoughts and actions contribute to the overall scheme of life. It's about taking the blissful and painful memories of the past and using it as motivation for a better future.
We truly appreciate Remake for the same motivations...our bond with the past and the memories we shared of the game and our own connections to it.
It is a beautifully nostalgic feeling.
Much love to all fans of this game. ❤️
@@Digital_DavidDavid, I’m so sorry for your loss and pain. I lost my best friend to suicide 2 years ago too, and the pain doesn’t seem to fade one bit. I really want to believe they are in better hands wherever their souls are.
Thanks for being an inspiration, man.
It's time boys.
Keef in the section comments.,Oh boys thats just crazy.
The Keef Crew boyyy thats just crazyyy!!!
Boy that's just crazy
Oh damn, I watch you too.
Max: Notice me senpai!
Kitase: ...We've been watching you this whole time my friend. You're an inspiration to us all.
*IN THE FEELS*~!!!
Yo!!!! 😭😭😭😭
Its kinda cute tho. The fact those guys actualy watched youtubers for inspiration and courage to go on with the remake
Squeenix dev: "Dude I'm tired and burned as all fuck can't work on this damn game no more maybe I should quit-"
Kitase: **plays video** "DO IT FOR MAX!!"
Squeenix dev: "UUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH--!!!" **turns super saiyan**
"You're the reason I wake up every morning and put my energy into my work."
To have your own heroes tell you that... truly a blessing.
Hero?
Uuuugh😓 the feels
@@iamdopeasfcuk I don't understand how some people can call ENTERTAINERS heroes... what are doctors to them? Gods?
You sound so pathetic and whiny lmao. Are you sure that you are not projecting the lack of "poossy" you're getting onto me?? This shit must really stress you out lol. Man up bitch-boy, it's not that hard to find some in the real world ;)
@DeadMemes NeedToStayDead Doctor is not thieves.
FF7 team: Look, he's crying! Work harder!
Kitase: **whips the team**
@@LuckeeStrikee loool
LMFAO!
When the developers are creating that death scene
Developer: look this is what we want
(Shows this video)
*crunch intensifies*
You are now a piece of the soul of this remake Max,that's amazing
This Final Fantasy 7 Remake will forever shine on!!! WE must buy this for them and for MAX. LET'S GO!!!
I really hope he gets an NPC of some kind in it
OI JOSUKE
@@friendlyneighborhoodtotall1902 Okuyasuuu
Max is part of the lifestream!
There's too much negativity thrown at devs when they screw up. In times like that to know they are seeking out passionate fans of their work for inspiration is heartwarming. You are one of the most genuine dudes on TH-cam. Good for you Max. Don't change.
Well if they are screwing up they deserve the negativity. It isn't fair when they get blamed for greedy executive decisions though.
I'm gonna get hell for saying this, but gamers now are maybe the most entitled people imaginable. They have zero concept of what actually goes into making a game and are hyper fixated on negatives. They complain about prices but demand the absolute highest quality experience not realizing that game prices have remained stagnant for almost 30 years while the cost of making games has close to quadrupled. Now any game that is less than an 85 on meta critic is considered "bad", and any game that has a price point above 60 is considered "corporate greed"...it's honestly nuts to watch, and seeing Max actually enjoy games while not fixating on bad aspects is so refreshing after seeing how toxic the gaming sphere has become for devs between toxic gamers and idiot gaming journalists pushing some kind of political agenda.
2 years later and this video is still hard to watch without crying max is literally an icon to me in the video game community
I love coming back to his FF7 videos. It’s like a warm blanket lol
Max, you earned that jacket. You were part of the team, at least in spirit.
Meant to be
Glad he stayed behind to talk to them.
Yes he did, because he had the highest bid on ebay.
Max is Squeenix's very own FF7 Hype Man. Let that sink in. These guys look to Max for motivation. That's pretty fucking amazing.
What does that sink want now?
@@josephmcdonagh8389 It wants to introduce you to its lord and savior, Jenova.
Unknowingly Max becomes the voice of the fans, and with this you've become an inspiration for a game you've forever loved. What an Honour.
He did it years ago with MVC3. Got sponsored by Capcom.
@@themmangobois3530 and Microsoft with KI
@@hammskie05 And he's possibly going to do it again with MvC2.
Reminds me of the Simpsons "do it for her" joke, just with loads of pictures of max.
Don't forget.
It's all about the MONEY with SQUARE ENIX.
Don't forget
about M A X
But it's not a joke.
Rich Smith bruh
I don't think the simpsons meant that as a joke...
I tagged max in twitter with that edit
It's pretty funny to think of the FF7 team watching Simmons say, "Not Nomura..."
That was my first thought too! Every time, maybe it made an impact on Nomura's work ethic. Legit LMAO.
Oh god I didn’t put that together til now! Hahah
where is that?
They'd probably have a chuckle about it since all Simmons is critiquing is "It'll never come out"
I was listening to this while on the train, i had to try really hard to keep the tears in dood. Your happiness is really contagious and you totally deserve this. Keep on being awesome!
Same here...the only difference is that I'm at home sitting with my friends who also like Max's content.
Deko his happiness for ff7 remake is pretty contagious yeah. Making me get hype about how hype he is for this game. I can’t wait to play this game in March.
@@furious_malic7808 same, im super hyped for the remake because of him and have never played ff7 lol
lmaoooooo
I'm not shedding a tear, just, something in my eye
That's pretty amazing Max. The passion is the reason for it all.
*sniff* "...Senpai noticed me..."
Those who fight further (to the Max)
Max I can't believe they used your reaction video that's so awesome congratulations
Dood. When your voice cracks. My tears said, "Fuck it. I'm coming out"
I am so happy for you Max that this happened to you. Truly so happy.
So wholesome. You’re so passionate that it rubs off on everyone, even the developers. Couldn’t watch this without a big smile.
Thanks for the great content as always.
Whenever I need a pick me up I always watch Max losing his mind over the Cloud Smash reveal.
Max: Damnit everyone saw me balling my eyes out on the internet
Goes to the comment section, realized everyone cried with him
Me reading comments: Why is everyone crying? It's just a FF7R video.
Me nearly through the vid: 😭
Max that's amazing, just the fact that your own video is shown to the team made me actually cry. Congrats on everything
I’m living vicariously through Maximilian, I’m 33 and final fantasy 7 changed my life (and gaming life, RPGs are and story driven games are my go to BECAUSE of FF7) and I got mine on Christmas Day of 97. Keep living the dream for us 80s babies Maximilian.
*tears*
I'm 34 dude well said sir as I feel the same way about this game
Turning 39 in 3 days now with two boys, 7 and 7 months. I'm right there with all of you. When I found his channel six years ago, I related so much to his Ff7 love that I subbed. Anyone who loves FF7 that much is a brother to me.
What a wonderful dream to come true for Max. Love ya Max
When I was 7 or 8 I bought a ps1 from a garage sale with ffvii and played the hell out of it. I'm 16 now so i'm as hardcore as you veterans
The truth is I stopped gaming for about 13 years. Oneday I seen on my Facebook that ff7 was finally getting a remake. I then went on TH-cam and found Max's video about the announcement and started gaming again. Ff7 remake literally brought me back into gaming after years long break.
SAME
Same here. I haven’t played video games since somewhere around 2000... when I saw FF7 remake trailer I was literally electrified and had tears in my eyes. Not sure if I’m going to play other games but I won’t hesitate to use money for FF7 remake.
Also, my first FF experience was 4 when I was a child. I used to hear that foreigners (I’m Japanese) are not into games like FF as it’s boring (and I wasn’t into Mortal Combat)... I didn’t know that they made so many fans all over the world in the last 20 years and that’s the most amazing thing.
I've been saving up for months to pre-order this game. So excited!!!!!!!!!! I know I'm going to love it regardless. I'm an occassional gamer, I could probably count the games I've finished on one hand.
Me too! I said I'd buy a ps3 when ffvii remake came out. I've been waiting for so long . . .
Just imagine Max's reaction when he sees an easter egg about him in the game. That will be really cool if they do that.
That would be nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuts
I honestly wish they put in an Easter egg of him in ff7. Given what we know now anyway.
@@DrenobiumOrchid Johnny's Keep on shinning could be the easter egg
@@sdbzfan1 no fucking way is that a thing???
@@shinxen8181 if you get to ch 14 and help johnny get his wallet back from kirie, he says "Bro, Tifa keep on Shinning, Johnny out."
A dev team that actually cares about what the fans want.
And here I thought I wasn't taking a feels trip today...
God damn it Battler/Tom/Zucc If you want the original, play the original.
@God damn it Battler/Tom/Zucc what was the point of being sarcastic in a serious comment?
God damn it Battler/Tom/Zucc It’s kinda hard to know if something is a joke/satire when the previous comment was serious.
@God damn it Battler/Tom/Zucc i meant the comment of the OP was serious
FFVII is the childhood of many people, to bring it back to this day and age 22 years after, you’re going to need devs that care about those who play the game.
Max basically became the "Never Give Up!" fisherman for the devteam.
DUDE YOU'RE SO RIGHT
Max is my fisherman due to making my interest in fighting games go UP big time.
DONT LOSE YOU WAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
Is this a jak and daxter reference ??
Max's hype is so out of this world it motivated the actual development team.
Palpable Hype.
The hype is contagious
I am on your level Max. I'm 36, I have my daughters, my beautiful supportive wife, a stable job, and this was the one game I always hoped i would see before my time was up. I was left alone A LOT as a child with no father and a Mom that worked 3 jobs, so this and FF8 make up a huge part of my childhood memories.6 more months and we at least get a taste of it🤯😁
Well then tou better enjoy it as much as you can mate :)
And show ur kids what made your childhood better. And maybe it will make theirs a bit better as well
Same here, dude. Single mom household, alone a lot. These games were my childhood, the characters were my friends. Going back to them is like stepping back into a time machine and I couldn't be happier!
Audience: You're Crying!
Max: You're Crying! You're all Crying!
Good comment.
...exactly.... dang it.
Confused developers: Why did it turn out to be a Nakige?!
Lol got me
It is so breathtaking
I don't care if you make 100 FF7R videos, I'm going to watch every damn one of them.
saaame♡
same here! i wanna enjoy the road to release date in this channel!
lol god bless you. i wouldn't have the patience
+ 1
So on board for that.
Manlier tears have never been shed like this. This has been a journey that I think all of your fans will hold on to.
Something's in my eye.
Max your soul is a part of the dev team.
You may wanna consider correcting your comment and write that as "your soul is *a part* of the dev team"... "Apart" means something quite different from what you're trying to say, some would even say it means the direct opposite of that. ^^;
Square Enix: *YOUR TH-camR'S SOUL IS MINE.*
Max: *OOOOAAAAGGGGHHH*
Square Enix: *YOU WILL BE NEXT.*
I want so bad for it to be a special thanks to Max or at least a mention to him at the credits, I would cry
Every dood just shed a tear. What a great moment in Maximilian History.
@13:18 OH MY GOD!!! That first reaction video is a materia now!
MAX, You just cast the Square Enix staff FULL CURE!!!
Literally a piece of you is going into the development, you should be proud of yourself Max, keep up the amazing work ❤️
This was just the most incredible story.
@James7851 He'd definately upload because people like myself were not present at the stream. Incredibly wholesome
@@thejanusproject32 It gets more emotional if you watch the VOD on twitch
You should make a playlist of all your FFVII remake content so far. Call it "FFVII Remake - a Journey"
He pretty much did that on stream lol
i'd love to see like an edited compilation of all his FFVII highlights on the channel once the remake is out and he's playing it on stream. maybe he or the dude that did that "Max falls in love" fan edit could whip one up
There and back again
Oooh maybe as a lead up to an ff7 remake stream/review. I’m hoping NoClip will do something for FFVII much like FFXIV ARR. I love that little docuseries
On my channel i made a ff7 remake playlist of I think all remake videos of Max's if that helps
You legitimately inspired people working on the remake of your favorite game of all time. I don't think many people can say that Max
I never get tired of hearing this story. Its like a music artist that youve been listening to and supporting for a long time, noticing you and writing a full album for you. Fucking incredible.
*wipes away tears*
Damn, dood.
This gon' be a good game
This video got me good. I've been diagnosed with depression recently, and it kind of hit me like a tonne of bricks. Your videos Max are one of the things that actually change my mood. If I'm having a tough time at work or I'm out and about and start getting anxiety, I'll watch your videos and it will give me the boost I need to get through this while I'm not at home. So thank you Maximillian Dood. Your actually a hero of mine. Shine on
Sorry to hear that man. I've struggled with my mental health for most of my life, and while isn't easy, it's not hopeless and I know you can handle it. 👍 Take care. :)
@@benscones9529 cheers mate, luckily I've got a lot of understanding friends and work have been really helpful with it too giving me time to get my head round it 👍
@@themightylebeau that's great! I'm glad you're taking that approach because it can be easy to isolate yourself (in my opinion). Sounds like you have a good attitude, so major kudos!
@Zakaryan Kane Bennett I wouldn't steer him away from antidepressants. Although I personally don't take any that doesn't mean they can't prove beneficial for other people. They're not something to be relied upon either way though. Just something to help get you to a better place.
Strong man very strong for posting this you have giving me energy
I really love developers that care for their fans. They get energy from us. A kind like some spirit bomb moment. Emotions, expectations, glee.
Its a great sign of hope in this pile of bullshit we call the gaming industry with all the lootbox crap.
Having some companies ACTUALY care and ACTUALY do their best to create playable artwork is extremely positive
Cherry Dragon they watched other reactions videos too
Max’s reaction saved the project from development hell confirmed
So Maximilian Dood easter egg or NPC character in FF7R when?
I hope they don't go this route, but he should 100% get a shout-out in the credits.
@@242sighting i hope they do
@@242sighting No Max NPC but a tiny Pomeranian barking somewhere in Midgard will be found
I would cry so hard if they made him

Thank you Max. You are the "Holy" materia that saved FF7R.
You mean the Lifestream?
You mean he lives in Aerith's hair and will be part of the reason she gets brutally murdered again?
@@Tenchigumi Ha Ha
@@Tenchigumi well we're not certain of that anymore are we?
If the team gives Max a special mention in the end credits, no amount of Kleenex will be able to handle those tears. You've earned it.
Put him in the game!!!
That must have been the best compliment I have ever seen to a TH-cam content creator!
And definitely a well deserved one!
When FFVII Remake comes out and it blows our mind I will have to thank you Max! You directly were part of their success!!
F...king great story man! Holy s...!
MAX. OH MY GOD. THEY USED YOUR VIDEO FOR MOTIVATION. I AM SO PROUD OF YOU MY FRIEND. I AM SO PROUD OF YOU ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
AND THEY SAY NEVER MEET YOUR HEROES
This is amazing!
There is a deep meaning in this. I just found out that in phylosophie when you learn something about a topic ,you good to go to "do" something BUT if you continue to learn ,you leave the state of doing something and start to learn so much that you leave the area of action and going to the wisdom state ...and do nothing :D
Well, yeah, look what that did to Kenny Omega. Guy got his head opened up by am angry Chris Jericho...
But, lol jk, like, yeah like damn, that hits hard man... Aaahhhh just saw that part right now... When you become the hero to your heroes, damn beautiful humanity gah
Ff18cloud I think more greater example would be if Kenny wrestled AJ styles one more time.
I want to be in his shoes, damn!
Max crying and the whole situation made me cry. Dammit max.
Dude longtime FF7 fan here favorite game of all time and all that.
I cannot believe you met Kitase and you were told that staff watch fan reactions including yours for inspiration. What an honor! I am blown away. I am so hyped for this game.
I was worried about the combat until I saw the presentation. I am extremly satisfied. Its looking 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ive known how much they cared about nailing this Remake but hearing you reaffirm their commitment is very satisfying.
It's the one game that makes me want to see 2020. Even moreso than Cyberpunk.
I always come back to this video whenever I’m having a bad day, it makes me emotional in the best way possible. Thank you Max for introducing me to the best game ever! FF7 forever!
Damn max, you just made me cry AGAIN!!! this video never ceases to hit right in the feels!!!
One of the greatest things I've heard. I had tears in happiness for you and in awe of everything FF7 Remake is turning into. Can't wait for next year!
The sad thing is FF7 remake is going to suck
Lol Well it’s better than nothing.
Sadly, it’s too bad that the company couldn’t do an all new re-make. Instead, they borrowed the styles and ideas from FF 7: Crisis Core (Starring Zack) and FF 15, then made mixes in one in FF 7: RE.
Oh well.
Awww this warmed my heart. I am so happy for you. You deserve every blessing that comes your way, Max. ♥️
"When I find myself in times of trouble Maximilian comes to me, speaking words of wisdom FF7-Re"
"let it be, let it be"
You are so awesome 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You killed me with this, thanks a lot man.
Fucking brilliant man
Dude, I felt that shit man. I can tell you are a genuine, real fan, like me! I have been a FF nerd since the original game on NES (yeah, I'm 35 lol) and got REALLY obsessed after FF3 on the SNES (FF6 as it's now known). So by the time FF7 was being announced and teased in EGM and GamePro magazines, I was beyond hyped.
I loved your story dude, and congrats on your recognition by the staff. That is HUGE man... I can only dream about something like that happening. After all the thousands of hours I have put into FF games, I might not survive something so awesome!
I only wish I had someone like you to share my FF7 hype with. But none of the few friends I have these days are into it even remotely as much as I am. I'll settle for watching your vids instead ;)
Cheers dude!
@JJC I am an OLD man lol. But we/I really didn't know what it would become years later. It was a great game for sure though, and a very different time in video games.
@JJC I'm 40, it is like watching the wheel being invented and also seeing spaceships before you die. My first game was pong, and I'm a big gamer now. I get to introduce my kids to this stuff and I can see they have no idea of how big of an achievement these new games are. I can see going back to play old games would be boring for most young people because there's so much better looking stuff. But we can't fall out of love for FF7 because it was really the first game that brought RPG games into the mainstream and the story was just absolutely epic. If you can sludge through the graphics try playing some of the older FF's, noticing easter eggs from previous titles is worth it if nothing else.
I watch these react videos just to feel good. I love the genuine excitement and happiness. To hear this news from the Dev team about your vids, it's truly astonishing. I can't even imagine how you feel.
It's almost like, in a sense, they're making it just for you. You're their model fan and they're making it just for you. Insanity.
Omg same.
I absolutely use those video's to crank up my mood
Couldn’t have happened to a better person. We’re so happy for you, Max!
Yep. One of the greatest TH-camrs of them all.
It's a beautiful time to be a gamer right now. Especially if you're a 90's, 80s or 70s child even. Being a gamer rocks.
There will be better times.

Instant like for the Cosmo Canyon background music
Ty for posting this as Shazam never seems to work on Max's videos and I wanted to know what the music was.
Yeah but too bad it will be years till we get to hear it in the remake.
Same, the nostalgia is beyond goosebump inducing
TheLoneGamr it’ll take years, but when it comes, the emotions will never change
I consider it among the greatest compositions in the FF soundtrack catalogue as a whole. It has always (in the somewhat melancholy, and resolute notes) reminded me a bit of _Ain't No Sunshine_ by Bill Withers.
In tears. In my office. At work!
FF7, the Remake and Max are THAT important do the culture of gaming.
To be fair. The max part ain't that true. I never even heard of this guy till i saw a ff7 vid of him.
He's just a youtuber like many others. Thus not that important to the gaming industry as a whole.
But obviously, i get where you come from as a max fan :)
This is just an outsiders view.
Hope you can respect it.
@@cherrydragon3120 how can you tell me what is important to me? Also just because you haven't heard of something, does that mean it isn't important to a craft or a group of ppl? T this person that you have never heard of "Max" his videos are being watched by the ACTUAL developers to give them motivation to continue making the game. If that isn't considered important to the gaming community I'd have to just call that ignorance.
Or maybe you just didn't watch the video??
Just remember there are tons of things you have probably never heard of that are important before you have heard of them. That's kinda what school is for.
R . M . Selvey bro you literally got way too defensive from someone stating a fact. I watch max, I am a fan and agree with your opinion to an extent but brought up the fact that max comparatively is not that well known in the gaming community, yea, he is growing still but he stated his point of view from an outsider. You never said that max was important to you and your gaming experience you said that max was important to the gaming culture in general which I can agree with fighting games but not as a whole. We are a very small and niche community man. Don’t attack someone for not being a part of it or having the same views as us. This legit hurt to read. :(
Jarl I think the original comment went over you two’s heads. He’s not necessarily saying Max is important to gaming in general cause yea we can agree that he’s not some global phenomenon but if you read the comment he said Max is very important to the culture of gaming which is indeed true. He’s a big voice and representation of millions and millions of final fantasy fans and to have the development team themselves notice him and look to him for motivation speaks extremely high volumes
That awesome moment when your heroes look to you for inspiration to keep moving forward. That's amazing, Max.
I admit, I cried, but when you rewatched the video on stream and you got to the part where Simmons was like "Noooo, not Nomura" the thought that Nomura could have possibly actually heard that has me dying.
God damn this video made me cry! So glad to be a subscriber of this channel!

everyone: oh no max....don't..now..I'm...*sobs*
I read your comment and knew it was coming but goddamn 😭
My chest, I can’t take it. No
No! Not the feels!
Max is always genuine in every video that I've seen of his. I've been following since 2013. Max you're legitimately one of the greatest people on the internet, let alone youtube. It's really wonderful that you've been recognized by and inspire your heroes, Max. You've always deserved the love and praise that all of us give you. You've helped many of us through many really difficult times in our lives by just being the wonderful person you truly are Max. Thank you so much for being a great teacher too, you've reinvigorated my love for fighting games. While I don't know you personally, I consider you a great friend. I couldn't be more happy for you. I love you and the rest of the gang from the bottom of my heart. I will follow you until the end of time, my friend. God bless you Max. Keep fighting and rising to even greater heights.
Man..imagine if this kind of love and care went into the next Elder Scrolls
Lets hope its a good game, in a couple months its gonna be the 10th year anniversary of Skyrim
As said by the legendary Allmight "young man you too can be a hero" and you are the hero now Max. Remember that
Amazing, can you imagine if in the end credits they add the names of the crew as a special thanks?
Gastón Trombotti I got super close to crying with this one...but if that happens I’m going to be fuckin BAWLING with Max
Dood, I so goddamn happy for Max. I couldn't help, but tear up along with him
Everytime I watch Max describe how his reaction affected the team, I can't help but tear up.
You deserve all the support you receive Max, because you return it in kind.
Max, I’ve seen that reaction video so many times and it always brings a smile to my face. I remember when I saw the 2015 trailer I was in tears at the end of it. FF7 is such an important game to me because of the circumstances in my life back then. I live in Lebanon. Back then, NTSC version games were VERY hard to come by and I had an NTSC psx in a PAL region. I remember reading a review on a magazine saying that FFVII was probably the greatest game ever made with a score of 97. I was gutted because it was extremely hard to get this game here as no one was into RPGs. The VERY next day at school, I overhear a guy saying that his dad had come back from the states and he got this stupid game that he didn’t like..... final fantastic something. I LITERALLY jump this guy and I show him the picture on the magazine..... “IS IT THIS GAME?” I asked. He looked at me with a half assed smile and said yeah.... shit game. “Can I buy it off you?” And he was like depends on much you’re willing to pay. I didn’t care. It almost felt like fate that I overheard this guy talk about a “shit” game so randomly. I was 15 and I gave 80 dollars to the guy knowing full well I was being swindled. That was the best Christmas I can remember and I was ecstatic playing this game for the next few weeks. Honestly, very few games brought that much joy and sadness while playing it. I am so happy you got your moment with the development team. Congratulations. I really hope old and new players get to experience the joy we felt back in 97. On a side note, it’s much easier now to get games. Limited edition it is :)
Whenever someone asks me who my favorite youtuber is, I always say Maximillian Dood
Thats sad, he is so fake.
@@markxv2267 no u
MarkXV ???
@@markxv2267 Now why would u say that? Care to back it up?
@@markxv2267 Don't just throw out bullshit, explain. How exactly is Max "fake"?
Dude, it’s like you’re a part of the game. That’s intense. You’re hype has to be at an 11!
He's the hype train that brings Cloud and crew to the reactor.
And then the Crew turns around and is like, "Thank You for taking us this far, friend. We will take it from here."
This is your destiny Max. Your reaction videos always makes people so happy. You got something special here and thank you so much for all you do man. Keep up the awesome job dood! 🖒
When I have a bad day, I come here to cry happy tears. I know this is old af now but this story still absolutely blows my mind. I can’t imagine how amazing it felt to not only meet these people but find out that your videos and passion inspires THEM. Ahhhh it makes my heart so happy ❤
We should Thank you Max for giving the Development team the energy.
This theme and your message got me in tears Max! I can't wait!
Max definitely needs to be in the credits of this game as a special thanks for motivating the team. We literally would not be getting such an amazing reimagining of FF7 without him. Thank you Max.
Max is the GOAT, confirmed. So glad you could have an experience like that dood 👍
No one is born cool. Except of course Maximilian Dood.
I’m going to be honest. This made me emotional too. Max well done bro. You’re an inspiration to people you don’t even realise.
Bless you, Max. You are an inspiration to many people. Legit had a tear in my eye because that was so lovely to hear. Keep being awesome, dude.
Max you're a legend bro, good job, thanks for helping with the remake in your own way
You deserve that recognition Max. They can see you truly care one hundred percent about this game. You helped make ff7r possible.
I very, VERY much want to know... will we see "Maximilian Chrishansen" in the "Special Thanks" of the credits to FFVII!?!?!?
It’s not just him, there are so many other people just like him but sadly are unnoticed.
Your the reason FF7 Remake is as good as it is now. THEY ARE MOTIVATED NOW
*inserts Vergil meme*
Crazy to think that Max is LITERALLY the reason that so much passion is put into the remake. He represents all of us little people.
Stop
This made me really happy, I've been depressed lately and watching your reactions always brightens my day so I can understand Kitase's sentiment. Your the best Max keep up the great work.
Amazing dude. You feel and speak the emotions of literally millions of people. Including the 10 year me who's now 32 and echos every single word you say. All the feels. Thank you.
This absolutely made my whole day when I heard you telling the story on stream. The reaction videos give me a ton of hype, and I'm happy it's giving the dev team hype, too.
I just saw the thumbnail and immediately wanted to cry
This entire stream was amazing to watch, unfortunately it was super late and after I passed out but thankfully Max keeps his VOD's up. I urge all FF7 fans to watch the stream in full.
Ken Williams may i know where to watch the stream in full?
That's amazing that they used your reaction video as inspiration.
This is the first Max Dood video I ever saw and I hit subscribe the moment he got teary eyed. He's now my favorite streamer and TH-camr.
Even his videos on content I'm not interested in are entertaining. He's inspired me to try streaming myself and I'm so appreciative of his tutorial videos.
This video was great to rewatch today and it stands out as the most powerful moment I've experienced on TH-cam.
He now stands with Dave Grohl in my eyes as my biggest inspirations.
You’re my hero, Max. I’ve been watching you ever since I was a kid, and your videos have helped me through so many dark times. I’m so happy that your heroes said that to you
I watched this live And u made me feel damnit max. Loved everything about this.
Hearing how moved Max is just warms my heart. Keep on inspiring people Dood!
This is so heartfelt... I feel very warm after watching this.
I watch this shit so much. Max. I love this game every bit as much as you do. These are my very favorite onions on the net.
