Here's a tip for beating the 3D brawler Party Animal and Sephiroth - just pause your game when they start an attack and then you can see what they're going to do and what direction you need before you unpause.
@@SBaby while true in theory it’s not necessarily the case at all, half the time you’ll only be doing mini games on hard mode especially if you start on chapter 13 like mentioned where it’ll just throw you into the open world and you don’t have to interact with over powered enemies, i mean if you start fighting a bunch of over leveled enemies though that’s kinda on you at that point. If you want the items you should be focusing on the items(on hard mode) and then actually do the hard mode the intended way. Beside none of the items are mandatory anyways and I doubt you’ll even use half of them even if you did get them
I'm an older gamer and still love playing the games. I gotta say I really hate the fact you can't unlock these things just by playing on normal. A real nod to the original would be to let you earn everything without pushing this hard mode thing that only hard gamers go for. Crushing the game on hard mode should be more of a bragging right for those with the time and skill to reach, what I consider, as crazy amazing feats. Like in FF8 where beating Omega Weapon gave you that certificate. Yeah you didn't get any spoils, but you could brag about it and have that unique feeling of accomplishment. Feel like they just locking things away from more casual gamers. Good for you if you have the time and skill to get all these things. But I think they should players be able to complete the game without having to dedicate some much to it while focusing on real life. I'm definitely feeling left out of the full experience. I'm sure there are a few people out there feeling the same way.
the game is easy normally. most of these items are required for hard mode, so unlocking em during a hard play through makes it more rewarding. Being OP at the start isn’t fun. after you beat the game on whatever difficulty, and after grinding to that level 70, you’d think you have what it takes for hard mode. NOPE you’re going to get your shit handed to you. personally i don’t think you need these super OP items for a normal or dynamic play through. and you definitely don’t need it on easy.
I found it extremely weird that there’s a trophy for winning the Queen’s Blood tournament on the Shinra-8, but no trophy for defeating the Shadowblood Queen herself and completing that really weird storyline…
You can repeat the Shadowblood Queen at will. If you fail on the Shinra 8 you have to do the entire chapter over again (Or save scum) making the Shinra 8 overall a bit more difficult to finish I think.
Thank you for the trick, might try it if i decided to get the ribbon, but not a fan of this mini game as it take some try to beat yuffie, have to waittttt longg to hit the NPC :(
Just thinking about another full replay in hard mode gives me crippling anxiety. I really want to platinum this game but I just don't have another 100+ hours in me to do it.
Hard mode has beaten me and taken my lunch money. its over and the mini game madness can f off as well I've had a good time with the game but no, no more
@@DoomsdayMayBeOkay Yeah, but I mean why can't they just be useful right away? If I played the game once and already know what's going to happen in the game, why would I want to play it again right away just to use extra items?
@@SBaby Why? The Hard Mode exists for the people who enjoy it and that can be for several reasons, believe it or not, i'm not going to list every single one of them but i can throw you one that is very common - The freaking Platinum Trophy - for instance. And no, it would not make sense for these OP items to be "useful right away" they are not meant for your first playthrough.
@@SBaby You must not have ever played Chrono Trigger. All this is - is replayability. If you don't want to do it, then don't there's no rule that says you have to.
For sephirot brawler just pause the game each time he put his arm back, learn the diferent positions to know where to evade, press that direction and then unpause the game. Just dont do it to quick or you will block instead dodge, wich interrup his flurry attacks wich means no opening to attack, you have to dodge all. So dar i saw 3 flurry attacks i think, one of them is just a 3 movement combo, the first is always the same, but after seems to be random. If rng bless you and you master the first and the 3 attacks combo ones its become doable. But even with the pause cheese mode i had to do several trys >,< someone with more skill probably may need less time than me cheesing :P (is just about learn timing for pause no to soon, and his diferent positions, usually where the fist is, is where you have to dodge. Just remember to press that direction before unpause) hopa this help with that ribbon! Very good for some battles
If you are having trouble with any 3d brawler challenges including Sephiroth. You can pause buffer right as they are using their move to know what input you need. It makes everything much easier.
I found it easy if you just get in the rythm, i beat it without pausing sure took me a while just to understand that middle right and middle left and uppper right and uppper left differances in movement, for long time it was hard cause upper and middle right and upper and middle left looked alike but after a few dozen tries i got it easy, both party animal and sephiroth were the same uppper and middle lanes just about with little diff. but after a few dozen tries i got in the zone and beat them easy without pausing
Got the best tip ever for the piano trophy. . . Get your kid to do the left stick and you do the right or other way round works too . . . 2nd try 😂lolz ...... If no kids grab the misses you get the pictures ....... Thank you my lad Riley ❤🎉
Rulers of the Outer Worlds nearly broke me... But after 10 hours and 3 builds later, I finally cleared it to get the Gotterdammerung. Having that and the Genji Gloves makes the hard mode chapters easier to get through.
Yep and for me it helped to turn the audio off completely. I just used the rhythm of the trigger presses to keep pace. Took me like an hour it was brutal
Yeah, aside from the last cactuar crush on hard, the crunch minigame is the last I need to complete. After 1h of nearly going mad I had this idea as well. I reduced haptic triggers to 1 though to still have somr feedback for the green circles. Made it to 50 crunches and screwed up on 51. it ended in a tie which is counted as a loss. Gonna have to try again after taking a break from it. Maybe turning it off completely is the better option.
@@meximous2259 Audio off got me through the final stage of that. I was getting so pissed off at hearing that song over and over. Muted it, and won first try.
When doing the 3D brawler fights you can pause the game before the swing to see what attack is coming then hold the correct stick in the correct direction and it's I'm possible to loose
If you haven't gotten the Ribbon since posting, lemme help you with some Cheese. You can spam pause during 3D Brawler. Sephiroth is actually SLIGHTLY easier than Ifrit this way as all his telegraphs are visually distinct. The Upper Cuts are easy to consistently figure out, you just need to learn the Hooks and Straights. If you do it this way, you just need to remember: If you Block, just go ahead and restart unless you're clearly winning. You must dodge 100% of the time, and so you need to time your dodges. You can roll your stick in the correct direction before you come out of pause, but you have to have the timing right. Hooks need to be behind his head and straights need to be done right when you can see the fist about to roll over the shoulder. You just need to last until Sephiroth does the red aura and goes faster. The good news is his combos are ALWAYS the same. He only changes each time you successfully pass a combo. Yes. It's cheese. You may not feel right about doing it... But it's still hard even doing it this way. Still took 50 attempts. But I have a ribbon so... It does work.
50 attempts even with pause!?!? Why???? You don't even need to time it, you can just press the directions immediately before he even makes the blow once you can tell.
@@velvetstigma4961 blocks build charge. You will still lose unless the vast majority of attacks are perfect dodges. Sephiroth also gets more charge on a block than other opponents. I kept restarting every time I was blocked.
That’s like… impossible? You need crafting materials you only get from world intel boss monsters on hard mode to craft them. Maybe you mean the protorelic versions, which are quest items you can’t equip?
It's easy to make the acessorie that gives you lv2 limit on start. Just need to farm the fire bird on the map chocobos can jump from water. Them you just need to use one synergy ability to reach level 2 limit break and use aerith infinity limit. Oh yes. You need to survive until someone's limit charge. But yeah. The item that allow you to start the bettle with an limit becomes useless after you get it.
I only have the ribbon, Gilgamesh and all perks from that quest line, queens blood card, some of those enhanced items and the champion belt. Just leveled up to 70 and starting Chadleys challenges, the ones with double summons + sephiroth sounds impossible for me. Hopefully someone puts a guide out!
I just bet Gilgamesh's first challenge at level 56, so I think you've a good chance at them if you've done all those other bits already. Meanwhile I'm stuck on Dio in the 3D Brawler. It's a nightmare of a game.
Yeah, I was 51 when I beat Gilgamesh - it was a messy battle though. It took me 2-3 hours to beat the final brawler character - agreed it’s a nightmare. I got a few of Chadley’s and golden saucer hard battles completed but now stuck after only a few. Sadly no guides exist online yet on those :(
@@elisehermann6094 Yeah it's always shit to be ahead of the curve like that haha. I've seen the ''Thunder God Cloud'' build and it looks like it's a bit of a game breaker if you wanna check that one out. You basically just continually explode because Plasma Discharge makes you do huge electrical damage every time you get an ATB filled. I've even seen people make their PS5s crash by using it with Yuffie and combining it with Brumal Form and Blindside. It's just constant explosions hahaha.
Didn't know about the gambler materia! Hadn't seen or heard anyone talking about it. I sucked at the 3D Brawler so I didn't know I was missing a materia, although I was told that I could have got a ribbon besides the one from the Zack Legendary duo challenge with Cloud.
I could say im pretty much dedicated to this game itself but the small issue here is that by the quest can't stop won't stop is an issue there where i cannot continiue any further due to some bug thanks to the new update they've brought. Its quite cool w the updated game quality and performance mode but as said bc of this i cannot fully complete all the quests including earning all those missing items now
The final fight in the brawler minigame almost had me rage quit. But once you learn his moves its honestly not that bad. His final rage mode got me a few times but you just need to try and try and eventually you will get it.
The tifa sit up crunches took me a good 30 mins to do but done.. looking forward to the hard mode things to do once I get there!! It's a big old game but I'm loving it
It’s a boring 🥱 game…first hour was nostalgia, next 37 were tedious chore fest snooze worthy everything content. Weapons, all boring and unrewarding. Abilities, boring and unrewarding Rewards, boring and useless This game was so easy, I’d never force myself through the tedious boring world of mini game fantasy 7 remake rebirth intuition. Games a dud. Snooozeeefest 6/10
@@OfficialDjTalksick game wasn’t fun to play. It was a chore every step. Only beat it and 100%ed every area because I have to dominate every game that I play. I don’t reply games that aren’t good enough to get the plat. Sadly, this game was so easy, never died, barely ever used any healing item, never equipped materia, kept the sleek saber on all game…nothing matters in this game. Literally can beat every and any challenge with starting items. Games a flop
@@OfficialDjTalksick sure is right. Game was boring Easy Boring Boring boring boring boring boring Disappointment after disappointment Story sucks Missions suck Weapons suck Rewards suck Materia sucks Accessories suck Summons suck Exploration suck Only thing good is the graphics. Games a 3
if you already beaten everything in the game whats the point to get them to begin with kinda weird that they never thought about the end game of this game
I had to "cheat" to beat seph on 3d brawler. Soon as he starts his animation, pause it, check what hes doin, unpause then react. Still took me 20-30 minutes this way, but i wasnt even close any other way lol
If you have to beat the game to unlock hard mode then defeat all the VR challenges on hard mode to get that accessory what is the point. You will be done with the game twice by the time you get it. Unless you want to play the game a 3rd time which i personally dont
Do all the hard fights, so you can get items to help you against the hard fights... I understand that they want to have cool rewards for hard stuff, but it's kinda silly when you no longer have anything to use it for
god i would love to grind out this game and get all these items but its already a very long game which i enjoy taking my time with so probs wont bother with it until on a replay in the future
Maybe this helps: Select chapter 13 in hard mode, then fast travel to the monster (if beaten in the previous run ofc) which drops the item needed. Those are actually not as hard as the challenges
@@djstarity Okay. I took care of one of them from Chapter 3. I wasn’t sure if I should focus on the Genji accessories, the remaining brutal Chadley challenges, or mess around with hard mode. I already completed three chapters. I appreciate the response.
The biggest tip on the brawler completion is to use the start button to pause the game as they wind up so you can see what attack they are about to use
@@dribromand 99.9% of them are boring and underwhelming just like 99.9% of weapons, skills and abilities. The synergy abilities was an atrocious addition to the game pmfao Never used them ever once they are so useless and ruin the flow of combat every time. Game isn’t as good as people as say
@@BetterThanYouAtVideoGames I assume you have played the game on easy. If you play on normal you will have to use proper tactics on most bosses at least and you're fucked in hard mode if you don't use synergies and have access to all the weapon abilities.
@@dribrom I torched the game on dynamic difficulty (HARD) Had zero issues, never even used a phoenix down once. No battles gave me any problems No content was difficult, just tedious and boring This game was one of the easiest games I’ve ever played I can’t help that I’m better than everyone else on earth
I never play the game over right after beating it, whether it being hard mode or NG plus. I just beat the game why should I play it again right away when there are sooo many other rpg's that I want to play?
try expeditionary medal + limit siphon on cloud. he can lb cheese ruler of outer worlds pretty easily, just have one saved for phoenix / odin when they are targetable and it becomes pretty manageable. @@garysena
@@HenryDurth not from the Bible, it's from the Epic of Gilgamesh, a Sumerian writing dating back at least 2000 years before even the first Bible was alleged to have been written.
Yeah this happens in alot of games. You get all this powerful gear then there's nothing left to even use it on. I dint get why that's almost always the case tbh
@@InfernesterA lot of these items require you to do hard mode to get them. Hard mode doesnt unlock until you beat the game. So they already require you to be in ng+ to get them.
@@sploogeimpulseyou can get Genji gloves at the very start of your new game+ And trust me, their are MANY enemies on who to use them ! And many other items listed in the video, you can get on Normal mode
Can someone please list all the summons in order from the strongest to weakest ? So Galgamesh is weaker than Bahmut & Alexander, but what about Kujata, Odin & Titan ? I need someone to sort the summons from the strongest to weakest please ?
@@SterlingQrow Thanks for the reply dear, but I don't think that's true, because I can see Bahmut is the strongest so far eventhough Galgamesh is after him in order. Odin can 1 hit only weak enemies and not stronger than Bahmut. Kujata and Galgamesh only required 1 ATB to be summoned, but Alexander & phoenix required 2 ATB eventhough they're ranked less strong in chadley VR list according to you. It's hard to know, but obviously Bahmut is the strongest, that why I was asking. Someone need to try them all in hard difficulty against same powerful enemy and compare how much each summons hits paying attention not to hit the enemy weaknesses.
If 90% of players aren’t acquiring at least some of the items highlighted in this video, that’s really sad. This is a fantastic and engaging game, and aside from perhaps a dozen specific fights, the overall difficulty level is tame, when compared to many other popular action RPG’s.
you can cheese 3d brawler by pausing when he starts an animation, this lets you see which attack he is going for and gives you more than enough time to react accordingly. Simply press start when he starts winding up his attack, look at the animation, hold the analog stick to defend accordingly (while in pause menu), then press start again. Good luck!
Ö and Ä is letters that really only exist in German and Scandinavian languages. Ö is pronounced a bit like u in burden not like O (börden). and Ä is pronounced more like e in best, not like A (bäst).
I was all on board for the changes and weaving of the new and OG story line. Even Queensland was cool and very Final Fantasy like. But the massive mini game dump seriously hurt the overall game flow.
I got the belt and it took me a day and a half. I’m not gonna be one of those people who’s going to say oh it’s easy no no it’s not like fuck this shit if he comes back again I am not doing it. I done it twice this updated version, yeah no I am not doing it a third time after witnessing the updated version
Sephiroths 3d brawler took about 20-30 minutes of retries, but eventually i learned his attacks. Those red aura combo attacks became the best way to beat him considering he has 3 of them so if you recognize the pattern of the first two youre golden. The 3rd and final one when hes one hit from defeat is similar to the first one he does, but he throws in extra left punch you have to dodge up and changes from a left uppercut to a right.
wtf is this guy talking about, Gilgamesh is the best summon in the game, he always reaches damage cap when he ults he has a attack that that deals stagger damage and he gives the most stats when equipping the materia to a character
If you have to beat everybody First In order to get this card Then what is the point of the card Other than just adding it to your collection because you beat everybody What are you gonna do go back and beat them again? Once you've beaten them the first time you've already unlocked at the trophy there is no secondary trophy to unlock for playing Queens blood in hard mode does it really becomes pointless...... Almost as pointless is doing that ultra-long Quest just to open Johnny's chest only to find out that there's nothing but a piece of sheet music in there so if you're not a Trophy Hunter or don't want to play that piano that whole Quest is pretty much a waste equal to that of the korok quest in breath of the Wild
I was wondering if anyone had opened Johnny's chest and found out what was in there. Disappointing to hear it is just sheet music. I really suck at the piano minigame, and I probably won't really try to get better since there are so many other things to do
Just an fyi. Queens Blood burn deck is much much better than enfeeble deck. 2 tonberry, skeever. A burn card and a lot of 1 power cards that make cards. Wins every match without a sweat. Shadowqueen was a joke, think i got 58 points for all 3 lanes.
Man I don’t mind mini-games in FF7 but they seriously went overboard with it this time! Locking some of the game best items behind mini-game completion is also bullshit, they should allow us to gain them in other scenarios as well!
I find Gotterdamerung not that good compared to ribbon and karmic cowl limit break are nice but means nothing if you die immediatly and limit break charge really fast in hard mode due to the amount of damage you take and champion belt... really ?
Im already max level and maxed most materia, more than once. Man the end game here is zero, nothing big to do just mess around with bad mini games and intel.
The OG's Genji gear and coin toss. Man oh man. If you know, you friggin KNOW. Edit: the minigames in this game ate great, a huge improvement on Remake. But man, I suck at most of em lmao. Queen's Blood being one, but that goddamn Fort Condor crap, I do not jive with. Remake, it was new, I played a bit of it, but didnt complete all the challenges cuz it just wasn't my cup of tea. I don't like those style games. So for the Junon relic I think, that last game is fucking BRUTAL! I hate that shit. I have done everything there is to do up to the point I am at, except for that last stupid relic quest, cuz I just cannot beat that last game. Also some of the QB people I haven't beat but that is nowhere near as infuriating as that stupid fort condor game. How tf do you beat it? Please someone help me. Or don't, cuz at this point, fuck that game lol.
I was so stoked when I got sephrroth in 3d brawler, let me tell you it was a few hours of rage but when I got him it was a flawless ko, wish my ps didn't bug out as I wanted to record it 😢
Over 70 attempts for me. Did the debrave/deprotect, haste protect tried revive items nothing worked. Went from almost killing him then zantetsuken, to him blowing horn after 30 sec, zantetsuken in under a minute. Then one fight everything just clicked. Just remember perfect parries/stance changes are your best friend.
All these items are stupid .... Here is an item that makes you strong ... But to get them you need to beat all the challenge there is so there is nothing left for you to use it on ....
@@dzonatangavert1408 you really are dumb… using 1 instance doesn’t prove your point… in games the best item/weapon/armor/accessory generally a reward and bragging right. Plenty of times you beat a super boss to get the best item to play through the final level and beat the final boss on “easy” mode. If you’re lucky the game offers NG+ with potentially a harder difficulty, but that’s not the norm. The original FF7 is so ridiculously easy and none of the endgame gear or materia is necessary to beat the game or even the “super bosses”. You can either grind your way to high enough stats/mastered and infinitely spawned materia. Or you could just get good! Ever played an MMO? Beat the hardest boss get the best gear, repeat until your group is decked out. Wait for an update and the blacksmith has better gear than you got from the hardest boss. Ever played Mega Man Battle Network? Beat the hardest boss, get the strongest battle chip now all you can do, back in the day was beat the final boss again or hope you have a friend that plays the game. Ever played The Legend of Zelda? Collecting all of the collectible gets you a useless item for bragging rights. In OoT you get a Gold Rupee for finding all 100 Gold Skulltulas. In BotW you get a golden turd for finding all 900 korak seeds. TL;DR endgame gear is useless and unnecessary and is purely for bragging rights. If you’re not a noob you don’t need it, if you’re a noob you (typically) can’t obtain it.
@@dzonatangavert1408 using 1 instance doesn’t prove your point… most of the time the endgame item/weapon/armor/accessory is purely for bragging rights. The purpose it has is to make the final boss that you can replay, replayable on “easy” mode. If you’re lucky the game will offer a NG+ and potentially a harder difficulty but that isn’t always the case and plenty of older games didn’t have NG+. The original ff7 is one of the easiest final fantasy games and doesn’t require any strategy to beat the final boss much less the “super bosses”. You can literally grind your way up to be strong enough to beat everything. Whether that is by way of levels, morphing enemies into sources or materia mastering for infinitely reborning materia. Or you can just get good! Ever played an MMO? Beat the hardest boss get the best gear, repeat to deck out your group. Then once the update comes out the blacksmith has better gear then the hardest boss dropped. Ever played Mega Man Battle Network? Beat the hardest boss, get the “best” battle chip. There is no best battle chip! You build the best deck by forming synergy with your battle chips. After beating the hardest boss you can beat the final boss over again or you could battle with your friends, if your were lucky enough to have friends that also played, until recently when the Legacy Collection came out. Ever played Legend of Zelda? In the original OoT you got a gold rupee for finding all 100 Gold Skulltulas. In BotW you got a literal golden turd for finding all 900 korak seeds.

I found it extremely weird that there’s a trophy for winning the Queen’s Blood tournament on the Shinra-8, but no trophy for defeating the Shadowblood Queen herself and completing that really weird storyline…
Facts I honestly thought there would have been a trophy in completing it.
You get a Johnny collectible for it, so it's still needed for the platinum trophy.
There's another part to the game, perhaps not all arcs needed to be completed before part 3?
You can repeat the Shadowblood Queen at will. If you fail on the Shinra 8 you have to do the entire chapter over again (Or save scum) making the Shinra 8 overall a bit more difficult to finish I think.
Oh there is, you just have to beat literally every other thing in the game to get the trophy.
The secret to beating the brawler mini game is to hit pause during his wind up to know what hes going to do next.

They don’t even have to be that broken. Make it 30% more damage done 15% taken. 30% less taken 15% less done. That change would make both items viable
Just thinking about another full replay in hard mode gives me crippling anxiety. I really want to platinum this game but I just don't have another 100+ hours in me to do it.
They need to tone down hard mode and its challenges. It's just not fun at all and I usually like a good and fun challenge
It's unreasonable and stupid
You don't have to do it all in one go. I put the most amount of time into the VR challenges and am slowly going through each chapter
Take a break from game and come back fresh when you miss it. Dont torture yourself for a digital pixel trophey
Btw, the sephiroth 3d brawler is easy if you pause spam, its easy just will take awhile
Hard mode has beaten me and taken my lunch money. its over and the mini game madness can f off as well I've had a good time with the game but no, no more

@Dr.LeatherJacket the original ff7 is only £5 on ps store at the moment that will keep me going

The problem with the end game amazing items is what's the point when there's NOTHING to use it for after. These are absolutely pointless.
Exactly.
What you mean there's no point? There's is the entire Hard Mode playthrough and these items are extremely useful for that!
@@DoomsdayMayBeOkay Yeah, but I mean why can't they just be useful right away? If I played the game once and already know what's going to happen in the game, why would I want to play it again right away just to use extra items?

For sephirot brawler just pause the game each time he put his arm back, learn the diferent positions to know where to evade, press that direction and then unpause the game.
Just dont do it to quick or you will block instead dodge, wich interrup his flurry attacks wich means no opening to attack, you have to dodge all. So dar i saw 3 flurry attacks i think, one of them is just a 3 movement combo, the first is always the same, but after seems to be random. If rng bless you and you master the first and the 3 attacks combo ones its become doable.
But even with the pause cheese mode i had to do several trys >,< someone with more skill probably may need less time than me cheesing :P (is just about learn timing for pause no to soon, and his diferent positions, usually where the fist is, is where you have to dodge. Just remember to press that direction before unpause)
hopa this help with that ribbon! Very good for some battles
If you've already learned which position is which attack, you shouldn't need to pause it.
@@mimcduffee86 Skill issue ... im 40 y old bro... my reflexes are not more what they were...
This is just a cheese "safer" mode.
If you are having trouble with any 3d brawler challenges including Sephiroth. You can pause buffer right as they are using their move to know what input you need. It makes everything much easier.
I found it easy if you just get in the rythm, i beat it without pausing sure took me a while just to understand that middle right and middle left and uppper right and uppper left differances in movement, for long time it was hard cause upper and middle right and upper and middle left looked alike but after a few dozen tries i got it easy, both party animal and sephiroth were the same uppper and middle lanes just about with little diff. but after a few dozen tries i got in the zone and beat them easy without pausing
Got the best tip ever for the piano trophy. . . Get your kid to do the left stick and you do the right or other way round works too . . . 2nd try 😂lolz ...... If no kids grab the misses you get the pictures ....... Thank you my lad Riley ❤🎉
Rulers of the Outer Worlds nearly broke me... But after 10 hours and 3 builds later, I finally cleared it to get the Gotterdammerung. Having that and the Genji Gloves makes the hard mode chapters easier to get through.
For the crunch’s mini game…take off the haptic trigger affect and thank me later
Yep and for me it helped to turn the audio off completely. I just used the rhythm of the trigger presses to keep pace. Took me like an hour it was brutal
Yeah, aside from the last cactuar crush on hard, the crunch minigame is the last I need to complete. After 1h of nearly going mad I had this idea as well. I reduced haptic triggers to 1 though to still have somr feedback for the green circles. Made it to 50 crunches and screwed up on 51. it ended in a tie which is counted as a loss. Gonna have to try again after taking a break from it. Maybe turning it off completely is the better option.
@@meximous2259 Audio off got me through the final stage of that. I was getting so pissed off at hearing that song over and over. Muted it, and won first try.
When doing the 3D brawler fights you can pause the game before the swing to see what attack is coming then hold the correct stick in the correct direction and it's I'm possible to loose
If you haven't gotten the Ribbon since posting, lemme help you with some Cheese. You can spam pause during 3D Brawler. Sephiroth is actually SLIGHTLY easier than Ifrit this way as all his telegraphs are visually distinct. The Upper Cuts are easy to consistently figure out, you just need to learn the Hooks and Straights. If you do it this way, you just need to remember: If you Block, just go ahead and restart unless you're clearly winning. You must dodge 100% of the time, and so you need to time your dodges. You can roll your stick in the correct direction before you come out of pause, but you have to have the timing right. Hooks need to be behind his head and straights need to be done right when you can see the fist about to roll over the shoulder. You just need to last until Sephiroth does the red aura and goes faster. The good news is his combos are ALWAYS the same. He only changes each time you successfully pass a combo.
Yes. It's cheese. You may not feel right about doing it... But it's still hard even doing it this way. Still took 50 attempts. But I have a ribbon so... It does work.
50 attempts even with pause!?!? Why???? You don't even need to time it, you can just press the directions immediately before he even makes the blow once you can tell.
@@velvetstigma4961 blocks build charge. You will still lose unless the vast majority of attacks are perfect dodges. Sephiroth also gets more charge on a block than other opponents. I kept restarting every time I was blocked.
Where do you get your stats? Head canon?
So I have all the genji armor with out hard mode play, how did I get them?
Also do you only get 1 gotterdamerung or 3?
That’s like… impossible? You need crafting materials you only get from world intel boss monsters on hard mode to craft them.
Maybe you mean the protorelic versions, which are quest items you can’t equip?
The problem is that if you’re good enough to get all those items, you didn’t need them in the first place
How’s that a problem?
@@MikeySmash13 Because it usually means that if you do need them then you can't get them.
It's easy to make the acessorie that gives you lv2 limit on start. Just need to farm the fire bird on the map chocobos can jump from water.
Them you just need to use one synergy ability to reach level 2 limit break and use aerith infinity limit.
Oh yes. You need to survive until someone's limit charge.
But yeah. The item that allow you to start the bettle with an limit becomes useless after you get it.
@@SableBezno it doesn’t. Helps you breeze thru end game challenges and hard mode story
I only have the ribbon, Gilgamesh and all perks from that quest line, queens blood card, some of those enhanced items and the champion belt. Just leveled up to 70 and starting Chadleys challenges, the ones with double summons + sephiroth sounds impossible for me. Hopefully someone puts a guide out!
I just bet Gilgamesh's first challenge at level 56, so I think you've a good chance at them if you've done all those other bits already. Meanwhile I'm stuck on Dio in the 3D Brawler. It's a nightmare of a game.
Yeah, I was 51 when I beat Gilgamesh - it was a messy battle though.
It took me 2-3 hours to beat the final brawler character - agreed it’s a nightmare. I got a few of Chadley’s and golden saucer hard battles completed but now stuck after only a few. Sadly no guides exist online yet on those :(
@@elisehermann6094 Yeah it's always shit to be ahead of the curve like that haha. I've seen the ''Thunder God Cloud'' build and it looks like it's a bit of a game breaker if you wanna check that one out. You basically just continually explode because Plasma Discharge makes you do huge electrical damage every time you get an ATB filled.
I've even seen people make their PS5s crash by using it with Yuffie and combining it with Brumal Form and Blindside. It's just constant explosions hahaha.
@@OverlordShanbo hilarious, I’ll have to check that out. I love Yuffie after playing her more.
Didn't know about the gambler materia! Hadn't seen or heard anyone talking about it. I sucked at the 3D Brawler so I didn't know I was missing a materia, although I was told that I could have got a ribbon besides the one from the Zack Legendary duo challenge with Cloud.
Im gunna platinum this bugger.. but im taking a break from rebirth for a while.
I got the champions belt......never wanna do that mini game again hahah
I did it twice now. I won't be surprised if Jules decides to show up again in the last part.
I got fever when I seen him
I get how some people struggle. But once I got the rhythm down it was cake. I feel like people give up after a couple of attempts
Biggest problem was tifa's jiggle physics
I could say im pretty much dedicated to this game itself but the small issue here is that by the quest can't stop won't stop is an issue there where i cannot continiue any further due to some bug thanks to the new update they've brought. Its quite cool w the updated game quality and performance mode but as said bc of this i cannot fully complete all the quests including earning all those missing items now
The final fight in the brawler minigame almost had me rage quit. But once you learn his moves its honestly not that bad. His final rage mode got me a few times but you just need to try and try and eventually you will get it.
The tifa sit up crunches took me a good 30 mins to do but done.. looking forward to the hard mode things to do once I get there!! It's a big old game but I'm loving it
It’s a boring 🥱 game…first hour was nostalgia, next 37 were tedious chore fest snooze worthy everything content.

lol what I don't get is why put the best items behind such a wall that it has practically no use after getting it...
Same story for most games tbf. Proper backwards 😂
still working on Aerith-killing-pampas and VR-Chadley-infernal missions, but all the other things are done!
Out of all this I only have the VR missions left, working on magnify but not happy with what you showed that I have to deal with lol
if you already beaten everything in the game whats the point to get them to begin with kinda weird that they never thought about the end game of this game
they are just there to make the game fun plus you can do any chapter you want
Never heard of hard mode? If your a trophy hunter it's great to have all of this stuff for it 😁
Only missing champions belt bc of how much I hated doing it in remake but I got this far time to hit the gym
I had to "cheat" to beat seph on 3d brawler. Soon as he starts his animation, pause it, check what hes doin, unpause then react. Still took me 20-30 minutes this way, but i wasnt even close any other way lol
I want the Genji Gloves so bad 😅
Getting that Ribbon took about an hour for me. Just memorizing Sephi's moves
If you have to beat the game to unlock hard mode then defeat all the VR challenges on hard mode to get that accessory what is the point. You will be done with the game twice by the time you get it. Unless you want to play the game a 3rd time which i personally dont
Do all the hard fights, so you can get items to help you against the hard fights... I understand that they want to have cool rewards for hard stuff, but it's kinda silly when you no longer have anything to use it for
god i would love to grind out this game and get all these items but its already a very long game which i enjoy taking my time with so probs wont bother with it until on a replay in the future
is odin a good summon?
They all function similar.
Just got the ribbon from beating 3d Sephiroth last night. Success 🙌
I gotten all except the Genji items as of this comment. Didn’t knew initially you specifically had to do Hard Mode to obtain the crafting I need.
Maybe this helps: Select chapter 13 in hard mode, then fast travel to the monster (if beaten in the previous run ofc) which drops the item needed. Those are actually not as hard as the challenges
@@djstarity Okay. I took care of one of them from Chapter 3. I wasn’t sure if I should focus on the Genji accessories, the remaining brutal Chadley challenges, or mess around with hard mode. I already completed three chapters. I appreciate the response.
The biggest tip on the brawler completion is to use the start button to pause the game as they wind up so you can see what attack they are about to use
The biggest tip is that the accessory material you get is useless because the content in the game is so easy.
Hahahaha
I just hate how most of these items are accessories... like it limits us to one item. Really wish some of them were armor slots, weapons, or materia
i wish we had more Materia combos from OG game
I think FF7 Rebirth just have way, way too many accessories over all. There are literally hundreds of them.
@@dribromand 99.9% of them are boring and underwhelming just like 99.9% of weapons, skills and abilities.
The synergy abilities was an atrocious addition to the game pmfao
Never used them ever once they are so useless and ruin the flow of combat every time.
Game isn’t as good as people as say
@@BetterThanYouAtVideoGames I assume you have played the game on easy. If you play on normal you will have to use proper tactics on most bosses at least and you're fucked in hard mode if you don't use synergies and have access to all the weapon abilities.
@@dribrom I torched the game on dynamic difficulty (HARD)
Had zero issues, never even used a phoenix down once.
No battles gave me any problems
No content was difficult, just tedious and boring
This game was one of the easiest games I’ve ever played
I can’t help that I’m better than everyone else on earth
@2:37 Just turn haptic feedback off. You're welcome ;)
I never play the game over right after beating it, whether it being hard mode or NG plus. I just beat the game why should I play it again right away when there are sooo many other rpg's that I want to play?
If they make these dlc items i will be sure to buy them. I'm just a casual player and some of these are hard for me to get.
@toulor895 I'll think about it, now i'm playing hard mode and in chapter 8. But my problem is the legendary/brutal challenges.
try expeditionary medal + limit siphon on cloud. he can lb cheese ruler of outer worlds pretty easily, just have one saved for phoenix / odin when they are targetable and it becomes pretty manageable. @@garysena
@toulor895is it mad that I'm actually considering your offer for Zack's legendary bout lol
i.....think you should try Genji Gloves on Tifa in some next videos, what in the hell with a single unbridle strenght can reaches 9999 dmg lol
little secret for the 3d brawler, pause the game when they charge the attack, prepare the defense and resume the game. You are welcome
Sadly the party animal is bugged with the digital version :(
I wish I would have made a save file on Gilgamesh for practice
So ive played Remake and Rebirth for about 200 hours, and thats only the first disc out of 3 for the OG.
got to say, who ever ancient person who made the name Gilgamesh, your a sick dude, such a sick name
Its from the bible like most things in video games
@@HenryDurth not from the Bible, it's from the Epic of Gilgamesh, a Sumerian writing dating back at least 2000 years before even the first Bible was alleged to have been written.

The only thing that sucks is that after doing all this there's nobody to use it on.
Yeah this happens in alot of games. You get all this powerful gear then there's nothing left to even use it on. I dint get why that's almost always the case tbh
It’s probably for new game +
@@InfernesterA lot of these items require you to do hard mode to get them. Hard mode doesnt unlock until you beat the game. So they already require you to be in ng+ to get them.

@@sploogeimpulseyou can get Genji gloves at the very start of your new game+
And trust me, their are MANY enemies on who to use them !
And many other items listed in the video, you can get on Normal mode
Can someone please list all the summons in order from the strongest to weakest ?
So Galgamesh is weaker than Bahmut & Alexander, but what about Kujata, Odin & Titan ?
I need someone to sort the summons from the strongest to weakest please ?
The order they appear on Chadley's VR list is their order of strength, with Gilgamesh being weaker than Odin ONLY because Odin can 1 hit kill anything
@@SterlingQrow Thanks for the reply dear, but I don't think that's true, because I can see Bahmut is the strongest so far eventhough Galgamesh is after him in order. Odin can 1 hit only weak enemies and not stronger than Bahmut. Kujata and Galgamesh only required 1 ATB to be summoned, but Alexander & phoenix required 2 ATB eventhough they're ranked less strong in chadley VR list according to you. It's hard to know, but obviously Bahmut is the strongest, that why I was asking. Someone need to try them all in hard difficulty against same powerful enemy and compare how much each summons hits paying attention not to hit the enemy weaknesses.
Sp theres 3 elemental materia? I only got 2
I got the chocobo the sephiroth ribbon the compass and gilgamesh I thinks that's it do far.
If 90% of players aren’t acquiring at least some of the items highlighted in this video, that’s really sad. This is a fantastic and engaging game, and aside from perhaps a dozen specific fights, the overall difficulty level is tame, when compared to many other popular action RPG’s.
it’s because 90% of people won’t do a second play through on hard. get over it.
@@sploogeimpulse I’ll “get over it” if you go away.
Hard mode isn't tame and all this stuff if for hard mode.
So, to get extra copies of Elemental and Magnify materia is done in a challenging game or something I can do through my first play-through?
I've gotten most of these but the Hard Mode unlocks! Gonna wait awhile to tackle those haha
The only side quest I couldn't beat is with that damn shinra manager cause of the 3D brawler. 😂
you can cheese 3d brawler by pausing when he starts an animation, this lets you see which attack he is going for and gives you more than enough time to react accordingly.
Simply press start when he starts winding up his attack, look at the animation, hold the analog stick to defend accordingly (while in pause menu), then press start again.
Good luck!
The rest of us cant beat it because the quest is bugged and cant be progressed, forever preventing us from getting a single ribbon.
Thing is that I tried cheesing it and all and it sucks it's bugged now.
Ö and Ä is letters that really only exist in German and Scandinavian languages. Ö is pronounced a bit like u in burden not like O (börden). and Ä is pronounced more like e in best, not like A (bäst).
Wish there was place holder weapons for this game. There's nothing to use this gear on.
I was all on board for the changes and weaving of the new and OG story line. Even Queensland was cool and very Final Fantasy like. But the massive mini game dump seriously hurt the overall game flow.
I got the belt and it took me a day and a half. I’m not gonna be one of those people who’s going to say oh it’s easy no no it’s not like fuck this shit if he comes back again I am not doing it. I done it twice this updated version, yeah no I am not doing it a third time after witnessing the updated version
Cant stop won't stop side quests unlocks by completing all other side quests & it will show up in chapter 13 ....its a nightmare tbh 😅
The thumbnail got me with that MH question mark ❓ 😂
It’s unfortunate that the mission can’t stop won’t stop is currently bugged for most players
Which Turk do you steal that ring from?
My guess is Reno since they used a clip of the only Reno fight
I have them all except Gotterdamurang and the genji items 😅
The Rarest item you'll obtain in the game is the One-Winged Angel Sheet Music. Only 1.4% of players obtained it.
I just noticed that genjiro used the Masters of the Universe sword (he-man, for those that don’t know). Crazy reference.
If you're talking about gilgamesh, that's excalipoor and Excalibur, not some he man sword
@@chriskoloski32 look up he man, the original show, and the toys. it’s the same exact design. It might’ve been referenced through excalibur/-poor too.
Sephiroths 3d brawler took about 20-30 minutes of retries, but eventually i learned his attacks. Those red aura combo attacks became the best way to beat him considering he has 3 of them so if you recognize the pattern of the first two youre golden. The 3rd and final one when hes one hit from defeat is similar to the first one he does, but he throws in extra left punch you have to dodge up and changes from a left uppercut to a right.
You must really like Alexander lls
wtf is this guy talking about, Gilgamesh is the best summon in the game, he always reaches damage cap when he ults he has a attack that that deals stagger damage and he gives the most stats when equipping the materia to a character
Nice. I got all of them. Hehehe.
Back in the day I could get ribbon for all My characters
I miss the good old days of grinding and levelling up and exploration for good items, instead good items locked behid minigames.
i got all of them. and let me tell you i am NEVER playing 3d brawler again apart form the one against dio when you first go to the golden saucer.
Whats the point of having gotterdamerung when u already finish the game.
If you have to beat everybody First In order to get this card Then what is the point of the card Other than just adding it to your collection because you beat everybody What are you gonna do go back and beat them again? Once you've beaten them the first time you've already unlocked at the trophy there is no secondary trophy to unlock for playing Queens blood in hard mode does it really becomes pointless......
Almost as pointless is doing that ultra-long Quest just to open Johnny's chest only to find out that there's nothing but a piece of sheet music in there so if you're not a Trophy Hunter or don't want to play that piano that whole Quest is pretty much a waste equal to that of the korok quest in breath of the Wild
I was wondering if anyone had opened Johnny's chest and found out what was in there. Disappointing to hear it is just sheet music. I really suck at the piano minigame, and I probably won't really try to get better since there are so many other things to do
@@kylemills7161 yeah its the one winged angel sheet music....what a waste
Just an fyi. Queens Blood burn deck is much much better than enfeeble deck. 2 tonberry, skeever. A burn card and a lot of 1 power cards that make cards. Wins every match without a sweat. Shadowqueen was a joke, think i got 58 points for all 3 lanes.
Man I don’t mind mini-games in FF7 but they seriously went overboard with it this time! Locking some of the game best items behind mini-game completion is also bullshit, they should allow us to gain them in other scenarios as well!
Hard mode is easy if you have the right equipment
That tifa suit. HOW DO I GET IT😅
I find Gotterdamerung not that good compared to ribbon and karmic cowl
limit break are nice but means nothing if you die immediatly
and limit break charge really fast in hard mode due to the amount of damage you take
and champion belt... really ?
With Gotterdamerung and the right team you can have unlimited limit breaks where you simply won't die.
@@KingAlucard101 but boring to play
Well i got all of the items, so i guess i passed the test.
I’ve gotten the platinum that shit is HARD
Im already max level and maxed most materia, more than once. Man the end game here is zero, nothing big to do just mess around with bad mini games and intel.
As part of that 10% it was not worth it only soul crushing despair awaits for most of these.
The OG's Genji gear and coin toss. Man oh man. If you know, you friggin KNOW.
Edit: the minigames in this game ate great, a huge improvement on Remake. But man, I suck at most of em lmao. Queen's Blood being one, but that goddamn Fort Condor crap, I do not jive with. Remake, it was new, I played a bit of it, but didnt complete all the challenges cuz it just wasn't my cup of tea. I don't like those style games. So for the Junon relic I think, that last game is fucking BRUTAL! I hate that shit. I have done everything there is to do up to the point I am at, except for that last stupid relic quest, cuz I just cannot beat that last game. Also some of the QB people I haven't beat but that is nowhere near as infuriating as that stupid fort condor game. How tf do you beat it? Please someone help me. Or don't, cuz at this point, fuck that game lol.
Honestly, after hearing the requirements…is this the game that breaks my patience?
Jules was the real final boss 😂
to cheat. press start right as they attack and spam the input for the brawler mini game
The only best mini game is queensblood.
I was so stoked when I got sephrroth in 3d brawler, let me tell you it was a few hours of rage but when I got him it was a flawless ko, wish my ps didn't bug out as I wanted to record it 😢
With the final side quest being bugged after the last patch, no one will be getting some of these items 😒 or the platinum trophy
I cant even beat Odin on normal im in that %10 lol.
Over 70 attempts for me. Did the debrave/deprotect, haste protect tried revive items nothing worked. Went from almost killing him then zantetsuken, to him blowing horn after 30 sec, zantetsuken in under a minute. Then one fight everything just clicked. Just remember perfect parries/stance changes are your best friend.
Already own all of those items.
@toulor895 Not a pro. If you keeping trying, eventually you'll get everything as well.
All these items are stupid .... Here is an item that makes you strong ... But to get them you need to beat all the challenge there is so there is nothing left for you to use it on ....

Welcome to gaming you must be new here…
@@Enkid4675
No. You're the new one here. Original FF7 had the best item accesible before the hardest content. Try again.
@@dzonatangavert1408 you really are dumb… using 1 instance doesn’t prove your point… in games the best item/weapon/armor/accessory generally a reward and bragging right. Plenty of times you beat a super boss to get the best item to play through the final level and beat the final boss on “easy” mode. If you’re lucky the game offers NG+ with potentially a harder difficulty, but that’s not the norm.
The original FF7 is so ridiculously easy and none of the endgame gear or materia is necessary to beat the game or even the “super bosses”. You can either grind your way to high enough stats/mastered and infinitely spawned materia. Or you could just get good!
Ever played an MMO? Beat the hardest boss get the best gear, repeat until your group is decked out. Wait for an update and the blacksmith has better gear than you got from the hardest boss.
Ever played Mega Man Battle Network? Beat the hardest boss, get the strongest battle chip now all you can do, back in the day was beat the final boss again or hope you have a friend that plays the game.
Ever played The Legend of Zelda? Collecting all of the collectible gets you a useless item for bragging rights. In OoT you get a Gold Rupee for finding all 100 Gold Skulltulas. In BotW you get a golden turd for finding all 900 korak seeds.
TL;DR endgame gear is useless and unnecessary and is purely for bragging rights. If you’re not a noob you don’t need it, if you’re a noob you (typically) can’t obtain it.
@@dzonatangavert1408 using 1 instance doesn’t prove your point… most of the time the endgame item/weapon/armor/accessory is purely for bragging rights. The purpose it has is to make the final boss that you can replay, replayable on “easy” mode. If you’re lucky the game will offer a NG+ and potentially a harder difficulty but that isn’t always the case and plenty of older games didn’t have NG+.
The original ff7 is one of the easiest final fantasy games and doesn’t require any strategy to beat the final boss much less the “super bosses”. You can literally grind your way up to be strong enough to beat everything. Whether that is by way of levels, morphing enemies into sources or materia mastering for infinitely reborning materia. Or you can just get good!
Ever played an MMO? Beat the hardest boss get the best gear, repeat to deck out your group. Then once the update comes out the blacksmith has better gear then the hardest boss dropped.
Ever played Mega Man Battle Network? Beat the hardest boss, get the “best” battle chip. There is no best battle chip! You build the best deck by forming synergy with your battle chips. After beating the hardest boss you can beat the final boss over again or you could battle with your friends, if your were lucky enough to have friends that also played, until recently when the Legacy Collection came out.
Ever played Legend of Zelda? In the original OoT you got a gold rupee for finding all 100 Gold Skulltulas. In BotW you got a literal golden turd for finding all 900 korak seeds.
TL;DR endgame gear and items are unnecessary and useless bragging rights. If you’re good enough to obtain them you don’t need them. If you’re not good enough to obtain them you (typically) can’t obtain them.
