    The moment you realized that the sleeping guy is the real Sephiroth.

    This moment was the best use of a red herring I've seen in FF. At this moment I really believed Cloud was a clone of Sephiroth. It made the revelation of his past have that much more impact. To me, FF7 remains the masterclass in video game storytelling.

      Yeah, notice how throughout FF7 itself you don’t really interact with the real Sephiroth at all, until either this scene or the final boss. Most of the time you’re interacting with a shapeshifter Jenova under his control. Hell at the end of the game his real body is completely destroyed and from that point onwards you no longer interact with his real self anymore

    This game was ahead of it's time! Sucked being from the projects and playing this as you were expected to be something else. But even today the storyline, game play and the length of the game is unrivaled. Literally took me, & my cousins MONTHS to beat this game and we still only completed about a fraction of the sidequests.

      probably played this game for 1 year of my life with all the different playthroughs. at one point i played it over and over just to see all the different dates in gold saucer. the Barret one is the best, he is so uncomfortable.

    When Rufus asked the team to come with him, it was a great chance to have Rufus turn to good instead of playing politics. But sadly, this is reality. Rufus tried to execute Barrett and Tifa. In real life you’d like to think someone as smart as Rufus would be better than that, but it never happens. FF7 scriptwriters got it right.

    I don't know how anyone can think this music doesn't fit this scene perfectly. It's a mix of hesitant triumph (they just found the promised land but everyone is right to be leery because they don't know what comes next) and dark confusion (as Cloud wrestles with his feelings of failure and desperately wanting an identity while he gives Sephiroth the black materia, dooming the world).
    Song and soundtrack still gives me chills all these years later. I always loved how they'd introduce new songs at every major milestone. When you'd hear a new song during a boss battle, you knew things just got taken to the next level. Also, the songs that got recycled and reused so many times were so well written that they always seem to fit the mood of any particular scene. The track that plays the first time you see Jenova in the Shinra building and the other more quite track that plays after you wake up in the Shinra building jail after Jenova broke out are great examples of how well the writer and composer grasped creating atmosphere even when they were dealing with the graphical limitations of the PS1.
