That was one of the skills I avoided back then. I was very quick to ignore abilities that missed often and comet/meteor missed enough for me to just do without.
Always got a chuckle out of me when I sent Freya on a Jump and apparently she jumps higher than the fires of Doomsday coming down from heaven in the sight of men.
something that a lot of people don't know about (reflect) is that it can only reflect a spell once. So if an enemy has reflect on. Cast reflect on a party member and have that same party member attack themselves with a magic attack to throw the spell at the enemy. You can also cast a group healing spell off the reflect of the enemy to get a stronger healing spell back.
nice vid, i like the fact that you're not overleveled, makes the gameplay feel more like I used to feel when I first played it, man I got beaten up by this dude when I was 8
I'd like to see something different for XVII, slightly more light-hearted or completely unseen setting for FF, surprise us. Sadly, I think they'll just forever continue down the ever more serious path trying to grab other audiences
FF9 was my first FF game and I don’t regret playing it! It was so good and I couldn’t wait to fight Trance Kuja too! the story was amazing but too except for the card section but everything else was so much fun. Ark was just really hard to get cause of that Ozma boss!
@@ahamilton1189 in my oppinion yes the Sephirot battle Musik is cool too but the Villian it self was to boring for me because of his backstory and everything. He is just Evil because he is the Villian thats it There weren't any major reasons why he wanted to destroy the world, just because he's evil and it had to be. (that, doesn't mean FF7, is crap for me it was the 3rd best FF game i ever played next to FF12) BUT Kuja's backstory Is much bigger and better written and just as Zidane himself said at the end, if he had been Kuja everyone would have acted the way he did. Kuja's whole character has more depth than Sephiroth and therefore he is also a much better and more interesting villain. Thats because i think Kuja is the best Villian of all Final Fantasy you as a player hate him all the time when you play the game but and the Ending when there came the final fight and Kuja dies then you even as the player feel so sorry for him, when i play this game first time to the end i feel sorry for Kuja, especially when Zidane and Kuja were talking mean yeah he was the enemy but when you look back on his background and how he was exploited and enslaved by Garland without a real soul then you really feel sorry for him because Kuja wasn't evil because he wanted to destroy everything or revenge or something like that like Sephiroth. No, he just wanted to be someone special who is not like the other genomes and in the end when he sacrificed himself and saved the troupe, he did it too, in the end it wasn't Zidane the hero but Kuja, it was always Kuja in the game and that makes him a special Villian. Oh and the last Level the way to Sephiroth SUCKS the last Level of Final Fantasy 7 was such a bullshit 😂 Come one man a long way to Sephiroth and you had only one Savepoint and on this way you had to be Lucky not fight against a special Monster wich i dont know the name but this Monster can Kill your whole group at once and you need to go this fucking long track to Sephiroth again? No man that was Bullshit and thats why i hated the last Level and the Final Boss figths of FF7
@@Raph596 ultimicia is such a bullshit. Because she is just evil because she is the Villian she has no backstory or Motivation to destroy the world she just want to destroy everything beaceue she is evil thats Trash Besides, FF8 is the dumbest weirdest and worst game of all The story makes no sense from . The characters are annoying and unimaginative and act like children and there are just too many questions in the game that are never answered thats such a big bullshit
4:43 u see, it wasn't Phoenix Down that revived garnet, but the sheer awesomeness of this theme. Don't believe me? look at her, rocking that theme hard 😎
Played this game WAY back in the day when it first dropped. Such a good game. Man this fight though. This dude kicked my ass first few times around lol.
Would have agreed until recently. FFXVI is easily a top 3 Final Fantasy game of all time for me. And Shadowbringers in 14 is also insanely good, arguably better than any of the old FF games.
I played in the PlayStation one everyone add Auto haste Auto protect auto shell Auto life Auto regain Auto reflect when I played ff 9 it's only hard when you don't Grind and learn all abilities for every character doing this Makes fighting Kuuju and Necron Whole lot more easier to defeated
Something I liked with FFIX: While the game was never particukatly hard, it could still fuck you over even at high levels because most bosses didn't ONLY rely on brute strenght to kill you. I actually lost to Necron once with a team of levels 80+ (Zidane and Steiner were level 99)
If you don't have the right strategy and gear against necron he still wins. I had to refer to a guide to beat him. Same with higher levels, he didn't mess around.
My team was zidane Freya Vivi and Ekio I didn't have trouble because my level and I learned every attribute for each characters my characters were all 99 well you can still beat the main two main bosses at a level 56 or higher it's all about the game and how you play it
Betcha didn't know a thundaga cast on your whole party post-focus, using reflect to bounce it to the enemy, nullifies his reflect and does more reliable high damage than meteor and comet. I used to use elemental spells like this to kill enemies like the grand dragon in 2 or 3 turns
None. The best item you can get from him is Rebirth Ring. Which you can synthesize in Daguerro, or get by beating Cid in a card game, or pick up in the auction in Treno, or find in a chocograph. It isn't a difficult item to get. They are just wasting effort over and over for nothing.
actually the reason was to make the battle last little bit longer lol, you see how freya did 5000k+ damage to kuja, and Vivi around 9000+ in a single flare, too bad the meteor and comet miss. Zidane ewould easily do 6000+ damage per attack.
Several reasons I suppose. The fear of dying in the first place, the hope materialized by Zidane (that his brother would stop him), the loneliness, the will of the souls inside Kuja who want to live, Garland who spoke to him in Memoria, to make himself one last pleasure (by delighting in the terror in the eyes of his enemies). It's up to everyone to form their own idea of Kuja's intentions.
dragon's breath deals damage equal to total enemy hp lost and caps at 9999, If you don't feel like killing 100 dragons to max dragon's crest it's probably your best option in later boss fights for Freya it does have a much higher mp cost though.
I dont get this guys fighting techique. Why is he using Zid to steal stuff on a final boss? Okay. I get it. Rare items. But this man... continued to steal sh*t nearly half into the battle. And he kept on using other abiluties other than just RIPPING this boss apart.
Uploader already said in multiple comments that he was trying to make the fight longer because using all the most powerful moves would end the fight in a very short amount of time.
The attack animations in this game were SO gorgeous. Classic FF.
Yes they look fantastic for their ages!
They better be gorgeous, they take an hour to finish each attack! Lol.
The meteor missing was one of the most JRPG things ever
That was one of the skills I avoided back then. I was very quick to ignore abilities that missed often and comet/meteor missed enough for me to just do without.
Always got a chuckle out of me when I sent Freya on a Jump and apparently she jumps higher than the fires of Doomsday coming down from heaven in the sight of men.
the music in this fight is so epic. they ALWAYS nail it for final boss battles.
Kuja is a Super Saiyan 4
The musical breakdown as Shiva twirls is nothing short of cinematic
something that a lot of people don't know about (reflect) is that it can only reflect a spell once. So if an enemy has reflect on.

You can also cast a group healing spell off the reflect of the enemy to get a stronger healing spell back.
I learned this trick in FF4. I thought I was a fuckin' genius and I found some overlooked exploit, but no, it's just a recurring thing in FF.
nice vid, i like the fact that you're not overleveled, makes the gameplay feel more like I used to feel when I first played it, man I got beaten up by this dude when I was 8
Beat BAD. Then when i finally beat him necron made me quit when i was young lmao
Don't mess with us Hikaru no Go fans, there's like 3 of us
Man, Kuja whooped my ass over and over again when i was younger. (Born 1994) i will never forget this battle
I wonder how the FF staff choose what sorta world they will create in their games. Realistic, cartoony, medieval.
Whatever they smoked that day idk
This was an anniversary year title so they did medieval style to homage the originals.
Or a combination of these three
I'd like to see something different for XVII, slightly more light-hearted or completely unseen setting for FF, surprise us. Sadly, I think they'll just forever continue down the ever more serious path trying to grab other audiences
Nobuo is a genius.
This battle was more of music than actual battle 😂 gj for extending this
FF9 was my first FF game and I don’t regret playing it! It was so good and I couldn’t wait to fight Trance Kuja too! the story was amazing but too except for the card section but everything else was so much fun.
Ark was just really hard to get cause of that Ozma boss!
The music the music the MUSIC!!❤
Start the fight with the Arc summon. The animation matches up with the music near perfectly.
FFIX had the BEST Flare animation. 👌
flarestar was very cool too. only holy looked like trash
@@jemandjemand2362 strange. I like holy the most
@@alexivanov9683 I love the holy animation too!
FF9 has some real Dragon Ball Z inspiration.
I called zidane gohan for the tail hahah turns out he LITERALLY has gokus backstory
Can’t wait to see how much of a banger this song is going to be in Dawntrail! Give us hell, Soken!!!
You stealing in this battle triggers the hell out of me 😂
“Well… my time is almost up. Time to die, everyone!” has always been a super chilling, albeit sad line to me. How does it read to you guys?
Best bossbattle, Villian and Music in the history of Final Fantasy
Idk what about sephiroth.....?

No man that was Bullshit and thats why i hated the last Level and the Final Boss figths of FF7
Completely subjective.

considering how old this game is i gotta say the concept art and special effects are nothing short of amazing
1:34 The meteo is dispelled by the halo behind it ( 0.25x speed )
This looks very impressive for a ps1 game
It’s because old square were the GOATs, but now sadly graphics are the only things going for them
It’s pretty much the last big release for ps1 I think
this was towards the end of the ps1 going into ps2 so they were able to squeeze the most out of the ps1 one last time.
This is the remaster, not psx1

I learned to played ff 7 8 and 9 by watching my mother and when I played them I made it look so easy
Kuja: *Ultima*
*GAME OVER*
Technically it was as he killed the party who then thought literal death to fight for their and the planets existence.
@@wesker100000000 Necron is not death, I would rather call "him" Despair, Dear of Death aka Darkness Eternal.

Wich is basically true for every RPG ever. If you grind, the games main bosses become basically fodder.
The auto abilities made the game boss fights easier, especially if you were slower in selecting your next moves or didn't know the attack patterns.
Something I liked with FFIX: While the game was never particukatly hard, it could still fuck you over even at high levels because most bosses didn't ONLY rely on brute strenght to kill you.

manifesting that we will get this as a raid in FFXIV
The only thing that any should have hard time beating are those little Rams

Not only are they fast but powerful and annoying
why he keeps on stealing, i see no point this is the final battles
I like how flippantly nbd energy he has
Awesome. This game❤❤🥰
The fact people can't tell this is the remaster and not the psx1 version baffels me.
The most fun battle to frog drop through
I had the exact same party members my first playthrough and was also under levelled. This took me back.
Hey i recognize that stage from dissidia
goated party lineup
This music is so awesome
I had this exact same team for this battle 😄
Not in the same place though

I've never seen hims cast flare star back to back, wtf?
the team should have steiner use shock for max damage, would be easier
lol, kuja use reflect,why vivi keep attack with magic
Best final boss ever...
Except that he isn't the final boss. Necron is.

When the remake??? The 7 not pay
Para mi es el ff que mejor se ven los echizos ese flare y holy se van a la mierda muy bueno

It's being remade.

What’s the point of stealing?
None. The best item you can get from him is Rebirth Ring. Which you can synthesize in Daguerro, or get by beating Cid in a card game, or pick up in the auction in Treno, or find in a chocograph. It isn't a difficult item to get. They are just wasting effort over and over for nothing.

For the sake of variety. Kuja will die in 5 minutes if i attacked him with all the most powerful moves

This is the reason why kuja never gets intro trance form, his design sucks.
