I’m still impressed that in both Remake and Rebirth, they stayed faithful to 99% of the enemy designs, even the goofy, ridiculous ones and nearly all of them are here. If this doesn’t prove the developers are as passionate about OG FFVII as we are, then I don’t know what does.

now consider the OG game had alot more..this is just the ones in Rebirth..but theres the enemies in Remake..and the ones coming in the 3rd game....we use to get 3 games with of content in 1 game..no wonder it was on 3 disks..with great pacing too.
Even monsters which could've been easily a color swap, they still took great care to give some differentiation. Thanks to this video I just noticed that Heatseeker and Poison Cap's... well, cap, is actually distinct.
Yessss! So happy this video is out! Love watching it with my kid nephews and letting them wow at how much graphics have improved over the years. The current artists did such a great job translating OG artists' creativity with brand new coat of paint. Thanks for the video! Really awesome work here. Keep it up!
It’s gonna be hard to beat for all 3 categories, but seems like stellar blade could give it a run. You never know. Remake should’ve won GoY in 2020 over Last2 imo.
@@4o4FoundingTitan remake certainly deserved to win in 2020, now with rebirth It would be incredible to win all three categories, I'm really rooting for it.
They cheaped out though. Added WAY to many mandatory minigames that outstayed their welcome more often than not. Felt like annoying mood breakers every time, amd they were obvious time sinks to draw out an embarrassingly short main quest line. And they completely botched Ancient City and Aerith’s death - the one part that had to be absolute perfection. I will never forgive them for that.

@@bearwithsunglassesandicecr5856 I think they should have killed off abzu after remake, and had Corneo ride the heavy tank into the arena fight instead. He's all about keeping fucked up monsters as pets, remember hell house?
I'll never forgive them for what they did to Tankceratops... Edit: did I miss Test 0 or did YOU??? That is, sad. But he is locked to the battle sim so, a ton of people will surely miss it.
I remember back when the original was out, I would look at the art in the case and the manual and think "Wow, one day games will look that good" and now games look many many times better than even that.
Absolutely Phenomenal job on the enemy designs. This is one way these games are true remakes..They kept the essence of the OG games enemies. But expanded and added to the enemies in meaningful ways without losing what the enemies were.. the designers and animators did a brilliant job
Let me remove your disappointment with the truth: static.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/3/30/Dual_Horn_FF7.png/revision/latest?cb=20120704195348
Kinda sad that i played through the entire game & feel like this is the first time actually being able to see any of these models. With all the camera movement, menus and particle effects I almost never knew what was going on in battles :(
One of my first final fantasy games ever and I’m mad I’ve never played this when I was young it’s such an awesome game and definitely game of the year!!!!
I use to gripe about the change in art direction because I liked crisis core/Advent children look so much. But the new designs look great with the rest of the world design
WOW super cool must admit I am loving this game as being a person that has played the original all those years ago as well its how a remake suhould be made, cool share
I cannot tell you how astounded I was when I saw "Matryoshka Doll With Googly Eyes" actually made it to Rebirth. And they gave it a logical visual update!
The Grangalan is honestly really impressive; they were fighting an uphill battle to not make that thing look utterly ridiculous and they really did well on it
They didn't have all the enemies in Rebirth so I hope they have some iteration of them in the next game like Jemnezmy, the swinging axe guy in Manor (Ghiralgo?) and the Mirage (mirrors)
did anyone talk about the fact that the final boss in the original (minus one-wings angel form) is the final boss in Rebirth, being the 2nd part of the trilogy? Sephiroth isn't even "awake" yet and still "dormant" in the Northern Cave... did Sephiroth brought Bizarro Sephy / Sephy Reborn from an alternate but future world?
Heavy tank (triceratops tank) was the worst recreation. I was hoping to see it in full. A messed up Hojo experiment. Also super disappointed about them not including naked chandelier guy
Ghirofelgo at least seemed tricky to make work on a logistics level, since he just swings from one rope in the original. (Unless they went with something like sledgeworm and added ropes through the whole battle area, I guess?) This, though... This is a downgrade. They could have at LEAST turned it into a shinra robot that's built to LOOK like a triceratops or something, instead of a rhino-pig with horns. (It's not even a bad enemy monster idea! It's just not a weird ass tank dinosaur.)

Tankceratops (15:06) and Golem (15:54) are the 1%
The only monsters they left out was the dude on the swinging blade and the woman in the bikini
The devs and the musicians are the real heroes

15:55 Rebirth saw 🤖 and said 🪨
Insane amount of monster really. This is what games need to do, and not just recycle with just 5 models

@86lanzo for modern standard I would already say the devs broke out of the norm. That's how bad and low our standards and expectations are already.

All the models have such awesome animations and gives them tons of personality.
14:51 i'll just say this is my favorite one
i've been waiting for your comparison video for rebirth ever since the game came out! you're doing incredible work compiling all of these.
Thank you! I was waiting so much for your enemies comparison between the original and Rebirth! ❤
This game is such a miracle. I cant believe how much love and work went into even the tiniest details.

Wouldn't be surprised if the old final form of seph acts as the replacement and we get a new final form as the actual last battle.
there's still another form of sephiroth though "safer sephiroth" his coolest one imo and the hardest one because of the supernova move.
Wow! These are impressive! Thanks for the video on them!
I cannot imagine the time you spent to make this. AWESOME WORK!
This is so so good...my favorite redesign is the Galian Beast it just looks insane. Excellent edit, excellent work by devs and designers. Masterpiece
15:08 Actually the most dissapointing thing in Rebirth
For real that was my favorite thing to farm in the OG
Only thing I disliked about it.
They removed the rare implanted animals but they add stylish straps and golden bracelets out of nowhere to a savage transformation of vincent...
They could of made an excuse and said it was a shinra experiment but no they had to ruin the design and make it boring.. 😔
@@bearwithsunglassesandicecr5856 I think they should have killed off abzu after remake, and had Corneo ride the heavy tank into the arena fight instead. He's all about keeping fucked up monsters as pets, remember hell house?

Looking at Sephiroth reborn it’s interesting noticing that it looks vaguely like a corrupted version of Emerald Weapon
I really love how they stayed true to almost all of it. That's impressive.
This stuff needs to be extra content in part 3. would love every character/enemy comparison and music comparison. that'd be sweet
I feel like about 90% of these are perfect adaptations.
I remember back when the original was out, I would look at the art in the case and the manual and think "Wow, one day games will look that good" and now games look many many times better than even that.
man, the enemy design in ff7 is wild
Graphical evolution, Detail evolution and Quality evolution. Great Comparison YoDo-DoDo ❤❤❤
Absolutely Phenomenal job on the enemy designs. This is one way these games are true remakes..They kept the essence of the OG games enemies. But expanded and added to the enemies in meaningful ways without losing what the enemies were..

I cant wait for Emerald weapon...
........ and Ruby...
*sweating intensify*
And safer form Sephiroth!
You forgot about the diamond weapon
Damnn Amazing comparison.This is SE offical quality.
Amazing comparison
Rebirth is a pure labor of love ❤
And to think there are over 300 different enemy models in the OG game
I may be disappointed of Tankceratops.
But hey, at least I got Tseng.

It really is interest the direction they took with their designs in rebirth compared to what we thought in original.
0:48 SOLDIER 2-C, Looks amazing!
Makes me so excited to see what they do with stuff like Hojo in part 3. His monster design was crazy in the OG
Great job !!!
Big like. ^^
absolutely incredible
That’s cool
I forgotten how some of this guys look like 😎👍
Kinda sad that i played through the entire game & feel like this is the first time actually being able to see any of these models. With all the camera movement, menus and particle effects I almost never knew what was going on in battles :(
Game of The Year
Tankceratops could have been a Sweeper mod, and probably will be.
Amazing!❤
Everytime i see Tonberry my ptsd flashbacks start i remember thinking my run was over after i met him 😅
great video
THANK YOU!!!
One of my first final fantasy games ever and I’m mad I’ve never played this when I was young it’s such an awesome game and definitely game of the year!!!!
Every design just works 😊
Saw the same kind of video when Remake came out.
Did FF7 have a model viewer on the PC re-release or is it a mod?
I use to gripe about the change in art direction because I liked crisis core/Advent children look so much. But the new designs look great with the rest of the world design
How did you get the OG models to display like that?
they re-design the soldier-3rd
I wish the intel screen allowed us to play attack animations and switch between different forms for some of the bosses
25:46 it took me an uncomftorable amount of time to realise that the new Jenova model is basically the old one flipped upside down
Any chance you would think about doing a enemy comparison for Spyro Reignited Trilogy compared to the original. Always been curious on the diferences.
Bro where is my tanktriceritops 😢
Can you list the names of the OST tracks used pls? :D
They really kept the charm of the old designs, so cool ! Those designs were already good but they gave them so much depth now.
15:06 for the biggest downgrade in the entire game :(
WOW super cool must admit I am loving this game as being a person that has played the original all those years ago as well its how a remake suhould be made, cool share
whats the name of the bgm/song?
These are inventive and capturing ideas in 2024... for 1990s, this is visionary design work to stand up this well!
I think it would be interesting if someone tried to line up the loveless play with Genesis’s quotes from crisis core
This is all really cool! .. But Heavy Tank? Letdown! Should have been more like HellRider.
I cannot tell you how astounded I was when I saw "Matryoshka Doll With Googly Eyes" actually made it to Rebirth. And they gave it a logical visual update!

It's like an artist parent is redrawing their 5y olds funky scribbles

This is my game of the year!
Okay is there some sort of enemy model viewer in Rebirth I don't know about or something? There was in Remake!
This is so cool! btw what’s the song name at 6:08?
I could be wrong but I think it’s the serpent boss music you fight in under Junon
All this time, I thought the materia guardian had spikes, not fur. Considering the context, I am glad it did.
They were so faithful to the original
did anyone talk about the fact that the final boss in the original (minus one-wings angel form) is the final boss in Rebirth, being the 2nd part of the trilogy? Sephiroth isn't even "awake" yet and still "dormant" in the Northern Cave... did Sephiroth brought Bizarro Sephy / Sephy Reborn from an alternate but future world?

as much as i love rebirth, i gotta say, they did my boy Heavy Tank dirty 😔
Gooood!!!
Man, no Pollensalta or Jemnezmy?? I was waiting for the whole video for them to appear.
And the unknowns are missing as well
@@diiou you can't battle the Unknowns until you get the submarine and visit the Sunken Gelnika. That's being adapted in the 3rd game.
Wait... Where do you find the Joker??? At 13:13
Corel prison battleground I believe
Yep also in Chadley sim stuff
Can you show us all Spells and Abilities?❤
Is there no secreet boss weapon in rebirth ? Such as Emerald, Ruby and Omega ? Or i missed it ?
Nope. The Weapons will be a major plot point in 3 as they now house the Huge Materia.
Well Emerald and Ruby are OG disc 2 bosses and Rebirth ends at the end of OG disc 1
The weapons are gonna be a boss in part 3. But rebirth does have a super boss.
Gilgamesh.
It takes the whole game to unlock him. His unlock path is nuts. And that fight is crazy.
They only start moving around once Sephiroth summons meteor, we’ve only gotten to the Aerith-kabob.
