The love I have for this game...
YES
It's a slay!
Our childhood 🥲
@Jm649 so true man. I play the old FF7 once a year
some people will never actually understand how much this game has impacted people like us
This is the kind of trailer that reminds me that FF7 is like an entire franchise of its own, apart from being a part of Final Fantasy, this looks incredible.
They've called FF7 a compilation a long time ago before.
The comment section is filled with literal bots. They ruined FF7, changed the feel of it too.
They added Advent Children style bosses which is where everything really started going wrong.
This game used to be a serious Corporation vs Freedo fighter game with some occasional curve ball goofy stuff.
Now the director got all butt hurt and has to keep changing stuff with the game.
He's a true narcissist. He can't pay tribute to the old FF7, instead he has to make 'his better version.'
Absolute disappointment. Greedy corporation.
@@TheyCensorUsHere
Dude, it was stated years back that the original will always be the original, and while the remake may go down an alternative road, the overall plot will roughly remain the same.
When Nomura was director, he stated multiple times that for the fans, such as yourself, if you're looking for an updated Final Fantasy VII, with gorgeous gfx/visuals, they've already re-released it; It's called, _FFVII Remastered._
This game was coined a, *re-make* for a reason, and they've specified why, relentlessly. Though I'm probably just a bot, so you shouldn't take me seriously.
@@Tar-Von It's always funny how some hardcore nostalgia fetishists get up in arms about any remakes, as if they somehow "overwritten" and "ruined" the originals
It's up to people which version they will play, originals always remain untouched, remakes are a new creation altogether
And besides some outliers, majority seems to love part 1, the question is will part 2 and 3 be successful as well
@@spicydong317 Its funny how they manipulated the word remake, intentionally lied about it and have consistently added new bosses/characters the mess with the originals feel. Not to mention the beginning intro not having the same feel/omnious tone to it. The list goes on. You're the anime fanboy lol
I love hearing Red XIII as the narrator in this recap. Probably more reliable to tell the story than other characters...
What do you mean? Cloud is a great storyteller!
Cloud would be confused half-way as to whose story he's telling 😂
@@watchamigos1232 exactly! He can tell literally anyone's story like he was there!
@@watchamigos1232 "And then Sephiroth showed up again. And then again. And then again...."
If Barrett was doing it, the trailer would be Red Band! 💀
Red XIII's narration is amazing, his voice actor needs an award. I couldn't believe when I first heard his real voice. Excited for Rebirth!
Liam O'Brien (OG) and Max Mittelman (Remake) both kill the role.
Agree! He was my favorite character in the original and I love how they’ve revitalized him in the remake.
His VA is amazing. If you hear him talk normally you wouldn't guess he was Red's VA which goes to show how talented he is.
@@SuzakuXLiam also voices Caius Ballad, what a legend.
@@Vayne_Solidor damn. I thought his voice sounded familiar
Square's cgis are the best, a delight to the eyes of those who have lived in this world and find peaceful company in it.
When you look back on their ps2 titles like kingdom hearts 1 and 2, ff10, dirge of cerberus, etc their CGI cutscenes are way ahead of its time!
Wait until you see Verum Rex
Kingsglaive movie literally felt like an actual movie instead of a cgi film
"It was there, beyond where fate could follow, that a new journey began."
This gave me goosebumps.
So this is the recap that will be given by rebirth for the people that didn't play the first game. I like it, sumarizes it very well.
In the last interview they said around 17 minutes…
@@Linux090695 Yeah I don't think this is it
@@Linux090695I think that was a rumor wasn’t it? Was that really said in an interview?
It's missing a lot of details....they need a more in depth 1 for new comers
@@Ahmed-og2jm I don't agree with that, to begin with, Who wants to play a story based game starting in the second game, and even if you did, the details should be in the first game, not on this summary, the reason you dont show them is so new players that watch this video buy the first game to see those details, this gives you the context you need to understand what happened in the first game. Anyways I could be totally wrong and maybe there could be a extended version like someone pointed out above.
4:28 to see them together again brings me so manny feels
This makes me feel so many things rn😭 thank you Nanaki ❤
Thank you Nanaki, this has sent some serious shivers down my spine, I'm even more excited for Rebirth now!
The rendition of "You Can Hear the Cry of the Planet" at the end of this video, which was the theme played in Forgetten Capital in the OG, gave me goosebumps.
It’s beautiful.
"Seven second til the end."
Yasunori Nishiki did good with that one.
Red’s voice is perfect. Exactly how I imagined him sounded when I was a kid.
😅
@@Aiviymatoc yeah I regret saying that…
*opening scene in the game*
Zack: " Wake up, soldier, we have expectations to subvert."
This whole remake project; having Sephiroth be aware of the events of OG FFVII and actively retrace his steps to avoid his downfall…is so unbelievably cool and genius, I can’t believe how awesome it’s turning out to be! 🙌❤️
I really hope they connect everything and break through the idea that this might be “Nomuraed”
If only Square would actually embrace that instead of continuing to try and pass this off as a remake.
@IcyAuron it's not a remake, it's a sequel. The first part being called "remake" shouldn't have been taken literal. The term "remake" refers to everything after the game being remade because they killed the destiny heartless from kingdom hearts.
@@jacksonstubbs2999Why can't just be as a proper remake with expanded narrative and with new side characters? Reimagined gameplay and level designing? Why they needed for this wacky parralel universe bullshit? I think the OG's storyline the best and thanks for that storytelling the Square became success for its name. Everyone rememberred for the moments of the game. Each character's destiny was important for Cloud and his companions to fulfill it. Zack's death, Aerith's death. It wasn't a writing out from the story, they're fate was an important move. Now if Aerith story would be closed by Sephiroth in the Rebirth, would be a trigger move for the newcomer fans. And call me boomer, I don't really care but forgeting what story made the creators and companies to creating more acclaimed games it's a blasphemy. They can't repeat the same success by changing the whole story. By including the whispers is a bad move for the plot. I was disappointed after remake however I am a newcomer and I played with the OG FFVII too just because I was hyped about it. And I was hyped about the Remake too. I thought I get what I wished for. But no. It doesn't matter they wanted to satisfy the old fans. They just took an inspiration from us and took it into the whispers and spitting on our face. Maybe I'll consider myself to buy the Rebirth with PS5 if I have enough money but I don't think they wanted to target the old audience too since every companies goal to grab enough cash from today's trends. Back then they had self-appreciation to make unique stories and they were independent. That's why it's important to have more care about the source material. I trust in the creators will be make a better trilogy about remake and I respect them for their choice. But this game is maybe not for me despite that I enjoyed the Remake.
@@4CH4T1USG4M3S sounds like your complaints about FFVIIR is that it has provided the expanded narrative, new side characters, remained gameplay and level design you believe Remakes should have. Just not the way You and the angry whiny ones who can't breathe and think first wanted it.
Nanaki glossing over the events in Wall Market 👀
😂😂😂
Nanaki: "and then the team entered Wall Market and there was something about a dress and a wig? Anyway..."
Yeah…that doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things
"Your friend fought a house. A *house?* "
This recap only makes me want to replay Remake and play Rebirth 😢
I'm about to start a replay of Remake and Intermission thanks to the hype. Rebirth can't come soon enough!
I have played and/or watched this story segment tens of times but watching this gave me goosebumps.
March can't come too soon.
God, I can’t wait for Rebirth, loving everything they’re doing so far with the story.
Also, ‘Seven Seconds till the End’ needs to be an extended track of an hour or so. Literal goosebumps as it just builds up in intensity, possibly my favourite track from the game.
The hype is killing me
Yeah, this is gonna be crazy. Just three more months until launch...hopefully.
What Red XIII includes and leaves out is very telling indeed. Cannot wait til February
MY BODY IS READY FOR REBIRTH.
I am looking forward to Rebirth for sure like everyone else. I have finished Remake 3 times and proudly earned the Platinum Trophy.
That’s what’s up still working on platinum Trophy Myself
@@RichieSwagga Awesome, hope you get it!
I'm new to final fantasy, but is this a sequel to remake
@@zebo7577 yes it’s split into parts like the original ff7 was one 3 discs
Man this is crazy y'all have everything covered. I often go to other creators for story recaps but I didn't need to this time. A recap by you, and voiced by Max?! Fantastic!
Huh? This is official content from SE narrated by red’s voice actor lol
Max Mittelman is unreal.
THANK YOU SQUARE!! Been a fan since 1997.
Same! I was 7 when OG came out. Loved it ever since :)
@@nathanking5137 I was 7 as well. I watched my older cousin play VII and then I got my own copy a couple of years later and played both VII and IX at the same time, just kept alternating back and forth lol.
So, February 29th can come tomorrow... We can skip Christmas and new years. Can we just please go to Feb 29th! WHO'S WITH ME!
This voice actor is so highly underrated! Max Mittelman also voiced CLAUDE WALLACE in the amazing Valkyria Chronicles 4 !!!
He did such a phenomenal job in it!
I couldn't even recognize him in FF7 Remake as Red XIII - he has such great vocal range!
Saitama from One Ounch Man
It reminds me how I wish for the Valkyria Chronicles series to hopefully continue. Perhaps Max could return as Claude in some fashion. I can never forget his great performance as Ryuji in Persona 5 as well. He's got the talent for sure.
Also Ryuji Skamoto from Persona 5! This guy is such a legend!
Rebirth is almost upon us...
How many more are excited for it?
👇
I Wish I could be, don't have a ps5 🤷♂. I had a ps4 pro by random chance already so I could play ff7 remake, but can't justify a console for one game. My ps4 has mainly been my media device for streaming, netflix and stuff. It's been awhile that ive been a pc gamer, but its also been awhile since I upgraded my hardware it doesnt like new games that much lol.
Wow! Everyone getting excited for half-baked products, rather than completed quality products. Gotta love Square Enix fanboys!
@@udalix I was excited but apparently it shows that Square Enix doesn't care about fans but only putting it on the next best thing. FF7 Rebirth, as well the entire FF7R Saga, was supposed to come to PS4 as well but instead they gave PS4 1/3 of the remake while fans have to shell out for a $500 console just to finish the rest of saga after Square Enix basically lied.
It’s crazy bevxause my brain automatically upscales ff7 from my childhood and this is how I always remembered it
Love this ❤️ Amazing work Max Mittelman ❤️
I didn't think y'all could invoke those feelings again that I had in 2020 when Part 1 was dropping. Yet, here I am, watching this video with the brewing feeling the same day way again. Kudos, I bought my hype train ticket.
Hype!! Sephiroth did infact absorb the whispers. Defating fate was his plan all along! The music from forgotten capitol is amazing!!!
this is such a nice recap
so beautiful
i love the remake so much
This is just like in 1997. A serious, sinister voice telling us why we need to be hyped for this game while epic music plays in the background and over the top visuals hide the fact that this is a role-playing game.
They said it couldn't be done in a major motion picture. They were right.
Only on PlayStation 😎
RED XIII narrating makes this even more moving. Can't wait!!!
I was 17 when I played the original. Now I'm in my 40's and can't wait.
Thank you for the reminder. This was actually more helpful the expected :)
“Yet Sephiroth once again intervened”
They chose Red to be the narrator so that we don't know if humanity survives in the end 💀
Good observation, that hadn't occurred to me. Clever devs
they've said that advent children is still cannon and the story will end up there, so we actually do know what happens lol
@@regulator18E True, Advent Children kind of retcons the whole "humanity died" from the original. I believe this is due to the fact that FF7's popularity rising high and fast like hotcakes. Square knew they when looking for gold, they found diamond. Love the new story Remake has created and can't wait for Rebirth.
@@TheUnderratedOrange AC doesn't really retcon it, its 2 years after OG. Plenty of time for midgar to fall, and possibly humanity
@@regulator18E Yes, but we don't know what happens after advent children and at what point of time in-story does the narration take place
Great video. Could have been longer though. I hope the video included in Rebirth is still 20 minutes as rumoured.
This video literally says…also included in Rebirth. Sorry, this IS the recap. Not that 17 minute rumor.
@@SnowCoveredKKgrammatically speaking, included means that there could be other stuff as well. Not saying that's the case here but I didn't invent English
@@blackroomrob4205 it would be incredibly redundant to have two separate videos for the same thing. So…while you’re correct, use your critical thinking and context clues.
@YourMom62211 you're right... kinda. I was more implying that the Recap video could be longer than this one and include some more context. This was concise enough so you're most likely right but critical thinking would show that without a time machine to zip to release day, how do either of us truly know?
@@blackroomrob4205correct. But it would say context clues has shown us the light. But who knows…this IS SE after all! 😅
FF7 R is the G.O.T.Y. enough said.🥰😍
I am so excited!!! 😍
I am final fantasy vii number 1 fan 😊
Anyone else watching this whilst their game installs!
Happy FF7 Rebirth launch day!
God, the music is so good.
I'm sooo hyped for FF7 Rebirth !!
I want this game with every fiber of my being. 😂 only a few more months!
Awesome Final Fantasy VII Rebirth The Story So Far Video.
Can't wait! ☄
Just beautiful... 💚
Just pre-order the twin package digital deluxe edition and can’t wait to play it 🤩🤩🤩
I remember when the original came out but never had a chance to play it...experiencing the story for the first time and loving it. Beyond hyped for this.
Point is, you didn't experience the story, you experienced great graphics with crap story. The original story was amazing and the build-up of emotions was intense. This is just a lousy fan service. I'm glad I never bought this and keep replaying the classic. A marvel of story-telling.
The "remake" (call it what it is, a reboot) has bastardized the story. Aerith didn't die, leading to the group to seek revenge, the whole plot has turned to shits because of these decisions.
@@bifrostbeberast3246 Dude what are you smoking? I haven't played the original but I know the story...they have released 1 installment so far for the remake and it only covered like 10% of the original game....the story has barely even started
@@BryanOrion-m5i Do yourself a favor and play the original, if you think this story was good, you will be blown away but the heart and emootion of the original as well as the tragedy and depth. It just cant compare itself to the classic. I know the graphic sucks to todays standard, but the story man, the STORY! So damn good!
@@bifrostbeberast3246 Mate, the Story of the remake even fleshed out several parts, midgar is significantly longer and has much more depth and no major plot point is changed so far. Nothing is supposed to happen to Aerith at this Point and they already said that the 3 Games will fit into Advent Children which means Aerith Fates must stay the same regardless. You are just gatekeeping and being bitter. The Original is still there to enjoy but its equally fine to enjoy the remake and so far it's not a lesser product.
@@ultrachocobo4795no major plot points have been changed? In this very video Cloud faces off against fate itself (the original timeline), defeats it and opens up a completely new future. There was no fate or timelines or time travel or anything of the like in the original. I'm not shitting on remake, I'm just saying it's not the same story and the changes aren't small. Like the Evangelion films, they're sequels masquerading as remakes.
Great recap. I'm so excited for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth! I can't wait!
The music hits so hard
Welp, gonna replay the FF7R again now
This game is going to be EPIC
ONLY 104 MORE SLEEPS FELLAS
Is it safe to say I got emotional when they played Sephiroth's theme AND that beautiful Seven Seconds Til The End {City of the Ancients} music from Edge of Creation? DANG IT! Square Enix made me cry a whole river when I heard those two familiar pieces of music! Can't wait until FFVII Rebirth comes out in February 29th, 2024! It won't be long now! I've been counting down the days! Max Mittelman {Red XIII} did an AMAZING job giving us a recap of what had happened previously. I shivered when he said 'We came face to face with a man thought dead, the war hero, Sephiroth'.
HOLY CRAP! I did NOT know Max was the voice of Ryuji from Persona 5! That's insane! So now we have him voicing Red XIII in FFVII Remake/Rebirth?! INSANE! He's KILLING it playing the role of Red XIII!
I can’t believe we are getting Rebirth so soon! It feels like final fantasy 7 remake came out yesterday! Now I hope they can churn out kingdom hearts 4 and Verum Rex just as fast!
Excellent recap. Only thing they could have added is a minor introduction for Zack since he's literally on the cover
The narration was given by Red though he might've not known another timeline was created and who Zack is however It's easy to just elaborate,
"After we returned the highway from being in the portal, my whiskers sensed something was different... scent of a member of Soldier was strong then dissolved, I hope to investigate further on my journey with my company."
Then the video could provide a blurry video footage of Zack from the events after FF7remake. I agree it definitely needed to be addressed, I feel so bad for the newbie audience.
waiting for Max Dood to break this down lol
I like how Red didn't mention Zack once 😂
I think its because they're planning to end the series with Red XIII telling the story to his children. He was talking in past tense the whole time and he never met Zack or know the Zack part of the ending.
@@orimu836 that's not true. Cloud tells the entire party about Zack after coming back from the Lifestream with Tifa in the original
@@cloudtg462 Oh, I can't recall that scene. Scrap what about not knowing Zack then. Still, him not mentioning Zack in the recap kinda makes sense because no one knew what happened to Zack's timeline.
Max Mittelman as Red XIII is awesome!
Im was here maximilion dood
UNSTOPPABLE! LETS GO!!!! GAME OF THE YEAR NO QUESTION! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So cool. They put the City of the Ancients theme. 3:12
Boy oh Boy...
5/29/24, the story continues!
Even after watching this I still dont understand what exactly happened at the end of FF7R. Timeline reset occured so Zack didnt die and now he will be alive in part 2 but the game continues from leaving Midgar as in original timeline?
I don't think the timeline resets. More like the battle against the Arbiter of Fate created a branch of alternate timeline where Zack survived judging by the difference between Beagle Stamp and Terrier Stamp. I don't think we'll get to see Zack from another timeline meeting Cloud and Aerith from the original timeline in Rebirth. I think they will see each other on the last part of the trilogy where they have to beat Sephiroth at the crater.
Theres two different timelines being shown in the games.
This game will show companies how to re-imagine a classic for generations to come.
I wonder if this is how Nanaki tells the story to his children...I love a potentially canon diegetic retelling!
@zackkeogh3515 Oh, for sure. This could also just be a snippet of a much bigger story (which would include things we the audience are not privy to, i.e. the events between the end of VII and the 500 years later epilogue), hence why it isn't going over certain key details. Also, why not a fairy tale? From the scant information shown, the cubs are young and Red has lived for so long that the things he's seen have passed into myth and legend anyway, if they're even still remembered.
It probably will be, considering the scope of Rebirth. It was just a fun thought more than anything.
Is this Red from 500 years into the future talking? He only speaks in past tense....
Amazing va, gave me goosebumps
Ye that's what i've been thinking too. He's telling their story to his Children while they're visiting the abandoned Midgar few hundred years after the events of FFVII, just like the ending of the OG.
LETS GOOOOOOOOO
Can't wait to see how the recap for Rebirth in the lead up to part 3 in like 3 years lol
The Forgotten City music sounds beautiful..
❤ THIS IS AWESOME
Amazing story!! Can’t wait for Rebirth!!!
Don't you dare kill Aerith again!!
This should be 4K.
Nanaki makes a good narrator.
Hell yeah ❤
Man if they started playing hollow at the end
I wonder if this is supposed to be Nanaki recounting the story of the party's journey to his offspring long after the events of the game... in the OG ending the last thing you see is Nanaki and his offspring 500 years later, with the ruins of Midgar overtaken by nature
Havent seen anyone float that theory around, but it just makes sense to me
Let’s go to a new journey 😊😊😊
This narration, I feel myself is watching sort of Marvel Avengers movie trailer, this is cool
for those who never played the OG FF7 having Red XIII narrate the story makes sense considering he does outlive his fellow party members by being seen in a post-credits scene labeled 500 year later.
This was nice, but I wish the video came with closed captioning, since at various points the sound effects overpower the narration and make it difficult to hear what Nanaki is saying.
I’m really excited for “Rebirth” I can’t believe it’s almost here! I’m excited, and nervous, to discover what Sephiroth’s endgame is this time around.
There are closed captions?
Dark Helmet: "Everybody got that?"
Only 100 days left! Feels like forever...
Red XIII's voice is amazing!❤
So is Aerith going to die in this one?
I hope not but it is 50/50.
Remember that image of Cloud outside Shinra HQ looking up? He was headed to save Aerith.
Spoiler: Doomguy took the same picture, meaning Doomguy...is coming...to save Aerith.
The streets will flow with the blood of the nonbelievers.
My theory is Cloud kills Aerith and wasn't able to break free of sephiroth's control this time
There is CGI in the last reverb trailer that depicts the final fight with Sephiroth that is NOT included in this video, so perhaps there is another video…??
im assuming this will be in Rebirth at the start of the game
Seems likely
Oh Rebirth come to me now
Now maximilian dood gonna do 2 hours video about this trailer 😂
Lmaooo faxxx
And I’m here for it 😆
That guy acting like he’s the ff authority when he’s arrogant and obnoxious af is cringe
Guys like resonant arc or ff Union are superior.
lol
2 hours? Damn the stretch and milking are strong
This has to be Nanaki in the future right? Narrating for his kids?
Maaaaan, i REALLY need to try to finish Remake. Struggled like hell though and gave up when i got to the shinra building 😩
Loving this city of the ancients theme
"ON TWO DISCS" - nice! now that's how you advertise!
"What a fascinating story..." If you know, you know ;)
