    I just wanted to say that every few months or so I come by here to read new comments on this video. Over 7 years later and still the amount of kindness and support I see in the comments blows my mind. I don't think I've ever seen another video with a comment thread so positive and heartwarming. It's especially cool to see that many of you grew up on this video (and man does it make me feel old). Having a little girl of my own now, it means that much more to me. So again, thank you for everything you all have said over the years. I read every comment and they make my day better every time.

    I really truly grew up on this video, my dad showed this to me when I was a kid and I went around ages 6-10 telling everyone how my favorite song was called 'this is war' and it was so cool. Rewatching it is like reliving my childhood. I always eventually end up back at this video, it feels like a piece of me.

    2:45 onward... that part hits me... SO hard in ways that you can't even imagine, even if I didn't have the knowledge of Crisis Core, it was just timed so amazingly well... and it hurts... You definitely did amazing on this for it to be such an older GMV. :D

    The Zack and Cloud scene where Zack is talking to Cloud always gets me. From the on, I'm just a sobbing mess. That's how good this is! I'm so glad that Final Fantasy was created. This is my favorite video game franchise ever!

    I used to Rollplay FF7 on Bebo back in the days, and it was videos like these that I would finish school to come home and just play on repeat. To any one these days it would seem bizarre and weird. I'm now Engaged, I have my own house and 3 children. Times are great. ❤ Hope everyone who reads this is flourishing in life, and if you aren't!

    After 7 years, I've finally remastered This Is War and you can find it on our new gaming channel. I did my very best to keep the remaster as a frame by frame clone of the original, but entirely with HD or upscaled videos. I hope you guys like it just as much as you enjoyed the original. Also, we'd really appreciate it if you guys could subscribe to our new gaming channel once you watch the video. We have several other music videos as well as tons of gaming content for you all the check out there. Thanks!

    @BlueSpiritFire1 2 роки тому +3

    I'm so glad this is still around. I must've first found this about ten years ago now? For some reason watching it again has brought me to tears. I guess the nostalgia just hit me like a truck. I always remember that blend of Cloud's scream with the song, the buildup and the crescendo, with the scenes from Advent Children. Many amvs that were beloved and core to my growing up are gone, but I can't describe the relief and joy I felt knowing this was still up.

    Today I have been on several concerts, own all the albums of 30STM and FF has become my favorite game series. I still come back to this video years later.
    I am studying Game Art and my "little" dream is it to maybe work for Square Enix one day. I hold so much love for their lore, world- and storybuilding, characters and music that I cannot put it in words

    This video...wow....I barely knew what final fantasy was when I arrived here, back in 2011. It was the first time I had heard the song. It just blew me away. I was sitting there, in a dark place. I was procrastinating homework and stumbled upon the video. I literally just stared at the screen, transfixed. I turned it up, put on my headphones, and just watched intently. When it showed Zack dying and Cloud screaming, I cried....for a good long time. The song...the video...Just perfect. Bravo. Bravo.

    Having played Crisis Core and knowing what Zack means to Cloud, the whole damn adventure about Angelo...and then this absolute gem of an amv is why I keep Zack as my PfP.
    He was the perfect character for tying all of FF VII together, because he is just so much of all of it without the question as to why he has to choose sides.
    Ultimately, he chooses to defend both Angelo, and Cloud, even knowing Sephiroth is a friend. He hopes for the best! Though he doesn't get to see it at that end, he knows good will overcome evil.

    I never had a console to play any game in the Final Fantasy franchise, but when I found this video I felt such a great emotional connection with all the characters and settings that were unknown to me that it was permanently etched in my memory. This video has more emotional value for me than many movies, series, books or any other piece of culture that was part of my childhood.
    Thank you very much, becouse of your video I spent hours imagining stories for these characters, for those cities, decerts, tecniques, swords, battles of epic proportions and all of the others elements in this.
    Thank you, and I hope someday to be able to play all these games and finally know what the official story is. The day I can do it I assure you that I will not stop thinking about this video and how it planted the idea of ​​Final Fantasy in my head, that for whatever the reason, persist in my mind till today.

    The attempt to present almost each and every main clashing protagonists in all of the Final Fantasy franchise, as well as the inclusion of Noctis, is commendable. This is the best made video of this song I've seen (minus my bias on Final Fantasy).

It just makes me want to go back and play all the parts of the FF7 Saga and makes me want the remakes and for the story to continue forever.

    I don't even know anything about Final Fantasy and I bawled my eyes out the first (and second) time I saw this.

    This was my favorite video in 2011; Today, after several years without seen it, i just found it and the feeling was indescriptible, nostalgic af, you marked a part of my preadolescence with the best avm ever, i just can say thanks man.

    This Video with this Song really warms my Heart. i got this Amv over 10 years in my favorite list and i love it. I dont find the words to say how much.
    This song has accompanied me through so many difficult times and first love affairs, but also sadness. When I saw this video, I felt so much what overwhelmed me and what gave me ground again in a sometimes cold world. I thank you so much for that! Everything I write is not even enough.
