That also mean that the Digital version is gonna be MASSIVE. Like you might have to have it be the only game in your library to have enough space for it.
I subscribed to this channel just because of the sheer joy that FFVII gives to Max. I know the feeling all too well so it's entertaining for me to see someone share the same kind of passion,
Being able to vicariously play FF7 so passionately through someone who is so infatuated with the game is truly special. Max's FF7 playthroughs are some of the best pieces of content ever produced by him solely because of his knowledge and love for the games. Whenever im sick or sad ill go watch anything FF7 related and feel so elated that someone can be so happy and love the game, himself, and the community around it so much.
Same! never played OG FFVII and jumped on the remake after stumbling upon Max's channel going crazy over the remake's ending, then went and beat the OG, can't wait to see Max lose his mind when this drops
My favorite thing is that Max has built his entire career around the FGC and fighting games, built one of the best fighting game channels on youtube and twitch, the best Street Fighter possibly *ever* just came out, and the happiest I've ever seen Max is when watching a trailer for an RPG. His infectious hype got me to bite on FF7R and I didn't regret a second of it.
I'm pretty sure I found Max through his FF7-related content, and I love coming to see his reactions to everything new coming out about this Remake trilogy. That said, his fighting game content is equally fantastic, so whenever I (someone who isn't particularly into fighting games) decide to dabble in one, I come to his channel to watch him discuss the game and see if I can pick up any tricks to improve my skills.
I wanna play ff7r, and I got bored halfway through the original. The combat just looks so hype, like crisis core which is lowkey what carried me through that game 🙃
Max is such a great content creator. Even though I found him through game reveal reactions, it was his personality that made me stay and watch him play games. Also, a fighting game enthusiast' favorite game is an RPG but his future predictions power is also something that can't be ignored. It's truly the power of having 99+ insights.
I wonder if Sephiroth was talking about Tifa like the trailer shows, or if he was talking about Aerith? I love that the fact that this whole new Remake series being a sequel is something that Sephiroth, Aerith, and Cloud may finally start talking about normally. Also Max was spot on about which character would know what's going on lol. Edit: I see now, Sephiroth was taking about Tifa based on the Japanese trailer. Thanks for informing me guys! Hopefully this clears up any confusion for others too.
My interpretation is that, because Tifa is going to be vocalizing her doubts in Cloud’s story earlier, Sephiroth will be intrusively making Cloud distrustful of Tifa, giving the “true” story of what happened in Nibelheim a he said/she said quality. It preserves the tension of what really happened for new players, gives Tifa permission to be smart, and gives Cloud a believable reason to not be listening to Tifa if she challenges his recollection. He doesn’t know why she’s not dead, she doesn’t know why he knows all this.
Yuffie's reaction to Sephiroth appearing in that violet hue implies that Sephiroth's new powers are related to Stagnant Mako. That is why Yuffie freaked out so much. Yuffie recognized the violet energy as the same Stagnant spirit energy that Nero used. So it looks like Sephiroth has learned how to ustilize the Stagnant Lifestream, which is made of sould that have refused to become part of the normal flow of the Lifestream.
If you think about that only Sephiroth and Nero has slitted cat-eyes in the entire game and the signatures of their powers are highly similar, it is highly possible that you are right.
Fun fact. That reaction is what the development team was looking for from max. Infact they got better than they thought. They wanted to top his old reaction😂😂😂
My favorite part is when he just stated that the whole party is dead. That made me laugh. "Barret is dead!" "Tifa is dead!" "They killed the dog!" Lmao. Everything about this, the stream and the trailer is what I live for. What a time to be alive!
That pure, innocent joy from Max freaking out over any new FF7 news is always infectious. He's probably the best salesperson Square-Enix could ever have hoped for with these remakes. 😂
I laughed so hard at Max screaming "BUGENHAGEN" bc that was exactly my reaction too the first time I saw the trailer xD Max getting all giddy over FFVII is my happy place:3
Max is SO passionate about this game. This review trailer needs to go viral, just so the world can see what True joy looks like. It's so infectious I found myself smiling without even knowing.
Nico was vibrating in the thumbnail to his reaction to make up for it. Where Max shows composure, his mods must succumb to where hype within hype awaits them.
Dude asking what is happening, that gets me thinking he doesn't know shit about FF... Everybody who played the game back then knows already what happened, and if you played the remake of Crisis Core you would still know... What passion are you talking about I wonder?
@Yunsha is this your first time watching his videos? Imagine thinking Max doesn't know about FF7. The "what is happening " isn't confusion, it's excitement similar to "I can't believe I'm watching this". Plus Remake/rebirth isn't 1 to 1 so no one really knows what is going to happen. It's a different time line from OG FF7. This has been covered quite a bit already.
In the combat cut outside Junon where they are showing off RED XIII's combat, the party consists of Cloud, Barret, and Red. If you pause, you can see Tifa sitting outside the battle about 20 yards, so I'm expecting party swaps now too, while in mid battle like FF10.
You know my favorite part of the trailer? Aerith with her hands behind her back shuffling/kicking her feet in the river. It's just an adorable cute little background scene that adds nothing but I love it.
It’s crazy that I’m nostalgic for stuff that originated in Remake now! It’s not just OG nostalgia anymore. Love the new tracks in Remake. Glad to hear this new mix too.
Watching Max react to the FF7 trailers is like watching a child open presents on Christmas...pure joy and wonderment! Its the only reaction videos i enjoy n feel theyre 110% legit.
"Two dicks, one uriney" I .... PLEASE don't Kingdom Hearts this thing, I beg you Nomura, I will sign that thing I promise, just *PLEASE DON'T DO THIS to seven, I'm askin' you bro, like a.... well pretend I'm a man, I'M BEGGIN' YOU, please....."
Theory: the Cloud we see at 4:02 is from the Zack timeline, we know because of events he should still be "sick" there which would let Jenova control him much easier, would not be shocked if they go this route
I think it's also tied to the beginning of the trailer. They all died in Zacks timeline cause Cloud wasn't there, notice how they didn't show Clouds body being hauled away. My thought is Zack lived and Cloud never got better in that timeline and eventually left for the reunion forcing Zack to search for him so Avalance never had Cloud or Zack join them and they ended up dieing because of the singularity at the end of remake.
Its kind of a given, its also possible that the explosion of the Whispers didnt just split the timeline but pushed Zack and Cloud from that branch foward in time given that A. Zack doesnt find Aerith in the church and people are taking refuge as if after a incident. B. The news info at the start of the trailer doesnt have Cloud in it. Maybe the trailer cut off before showing him or for all we know it could also be Shinra propaganda to say that the cause of the destruction was neutralized. But this trailer definetly confirmed that Zack will be a key player in this and the finale of the trilogy
Hello! I am Japanese. I'm glad you enjoyed Final Fantasy VII and commented! My heart loves you who never forgets the heart of a boy! Please enjoy Final Fantasy VII! I'm rooting for you!
Max’s hype and love for FF7 is so damn infectious that it actually made me play the original before Remake came out and I became such a big fan! I’m obsessed with FF7 OG and Remake, they’re both some of my favorite games of all time thanks to Max. I even went and played/beat FF9 because my interest in Final Fantasy kept growing. My hype is growing everyday since I finished Remake.
I literally just went on your Twitch channel to search for this reaction because I ran out of patience waiting for you to upload it. So basically, my patience ran out after about 15 minutes. You're the best, Max.
Max's face says it all. I wouldn't be surprised if Nomura has put up a "do it for him" board filled with Max's different expresions whenever something about the new FFVII comes up
@@phillystevesteak6982 no he is the creative director of the project, he isn't directing the game day to day, but everything goes through him and no big decisions would be made without him - he's the exec producer/showrunner in TV terms - obv its collaborative and he lets the game director do his thing, but creatively in terms of design/character/story he is absolutely 100% heavily involved in all of it
@@lofirecordclub As long as he sticks with being a creative director, not pushing other stuff and solely focusing on the visuals, I'm good with it. And as long as Kitase can keep Nomura in check and make sure the guy is working, we'll get a good game.
I kinda envy you I didn't played the og when it came out, and I played on pc years later but the game was bugged(pirate version since I lived in cuba back then)so I couldn't finish it. I don't have that nostalgia for the game but I'm inlove with this new one.
Man, just wish I liked the remake at all. Honestly hated a lot of the changes and I hate the combat to boot. It's just not great. I would hope Rebirth would fix a lot of those issues, but I seriously doubt it.
I played Crisis Core blind (no knowledge of anything FF7) and got emotionally punched in the gut for it. I played FF7 shortly after. Even though I would have loved to see FF7 when it was brand new, I'm also ridiculously hyped.
@@kugetsu You hate the changes because you either haven’t realized it’s actually a sequel or you simply don’t want a sequel. These games are basically FF7-2 while hitting the beats of a remake.
FFVII means so much to me as somebody who played it at launch when it came out in 1997 as a 16 year old. Clearly means just as much and more to those making the remake too.. an amazing treat
Ya know, with all the remakes, sequels etc these days failing and never living up to what they should… i’m just so glad they didnt rush this game. If there was one remake in my life i didnt want them to ruin, it was this, and thus far… they’ve delivered.
Seeing him hyped and on the verge of tears watching this is such a beautiful thing because it's a shared experience we all have had and understand 🤜🤛 rock on Max!🤟
There is nothing stupid about it, only the totally bs thoughts that humans add to the experience. To grin and smile is infectious because it comes from love, joy and life itself
As someone who is still super new to Final Fantasy (playing 9 rn and its so charming), this is really cool to see just how much love care and passion that is clearly going into this. Im definitely going to play the og FF7 first but its going to be cool to see where the journey takes these characters.
When I was a kid, I really disliked 9 and thought it was too kiddy, but as an adult where every day feels like a grimdark adventure, FF9 really put the Fantasy back in it for me.
I honestly don't think the party is dead in Zack's timeline - perhaps critically injured, and ShinRa is collecting them to do nefarious testing because you KNOW Hojo has a vested interest in them after they all survived his trials in Remake.
When I saw the trailer with Max, I have massive goosebumps and in awe by the amount of sheer contents that the games gonna have and also the fact that it comes with two disc really makes it even more awesome.
@@jony7sama I wanted to say the same thing, everyone keeps forgetting that Remake was on two discs already. However, you also have to keep in mind that PS4 compression was way worse than PS5 compression. When you look at the file sizes of a PS4 app compared to its PS5 app of the same game, the PS5 version is always about 30% smaller despite looking better. (Part of that is also that there is no need for data redundancy on a game specifically baked for SSDs)
I like how he all of a sudden noticed how off the rails he was and had to force himself to tone it down because otherwise he was going to miss details. It was just such a pure display of emotion that you don't always get to see, especially with streamers trying to overreact to everything.
@@hyperbandit yup. There's a reason it was HIM at that celebration event as opposed to any other content creator. His energy is so damn addictive and I think game companies/developers are more aware of max than anyone else.
@@allenniumfalcon If that was the case then Max would be positive about everything FF7 but he's very clear about the fact that he hates the new characters in Advent Children, he hates everything about Dirge of Cerberus and he's neutral when it comes to the new story in Remake and he'll take a side when everyone gets the full picture.
Even though the trailer showed everything he’s been talking about for 3 yrs now, I’m still entertained by how excited he gets about the exact things he predicted and wanted
I think for cloud in zacks timeline, it might be when we see him in the robes saying “reunion”. Without tifa helping cloud and the death of zack not propelling cloud for his story, he might now actually just be another sephiroth clone
That's my exact theory so far. Especially since we don't see Clouds body at the beginning of the trailer. I also want to put forth the reason Zack didn't go straight to Aerith because Cloud never got better and left for the Reunion. Zack would obviously go looking for him, taking him out of the action. Which in turn would end up getting them all killed. Although I wonder if the Sigularity Killed them or maybe they Died fighting a version of Sephiroth since they didn't have Cloud/Zack there to help. Or were they just a casualty of the Singularity causing Tornandos when our Group destroyed the whispers.
@@RicochetForce I think that's right. And this is wild speculation, but I could even see them making the 'alternate timeline' versions of Jesse, Wedge, etc into Zack's party.
@@RicochetForce Cissnei was woefully underutilized in the FF7 compilation; she was a great addition to Crisis Core and I hope that she gets a role in this.
@@RicochetForce I don't think Aerith is dead, possibly just knocked out or something, her hands looked crossed on her chest under the blanket and she doesn't look dead dead like the rest of them. It also doesn't make sense that she would even meat Avalanche without Cloud, Cloud is the one that falls down onto her flowers and meets her and then brings her to Section 7 and introduces her to Avalanche. Red X makes sense because they meet him when they invade Shrina Tower which is more plausible that they would end up going there even without cloud at some point. I dunno they will have to explain it all.
Was literally waiting for Max’s reaction, the pure joy and excitement would give so much more motivation for the FFVII team. Also, don’t forget Taco Bell for the win lmao
Loved this reaction, so much joy. It's crazy to think about since it's been such a long journey just to get to the first game and now the 2nd one is coming out soon. Very cool.
We all knew it was coming but even then we just couldn't stop cheering and just laughing and smiling! Max's reaction live was absolutely amazing! Rebirth just looks absolutely amazing and I can't wait!
I nearly cried watching this. It’s insane how special this franchise has become again. FF16 and SF6 will take up all of my gaming needs for the rest of the year until Spider-Man 2 in October, and then FF7 Rebirth in 2024 😭
The immeasurable hysteria and hype surrounding this game along with the community and chatroom is why im a Max and yovideogames fan! Couldnt be happier for everyone one involved! LETS GOOO! 🎉
In the trailer for the 25th anniversary Tifa said "are You saying that I died, that I'm an impostor". They're hinting at It in both trailers. Also, could there be a connection between the Eagle that flies at the beginning of remake and in the final scene of Intergrade and Zack saying "those wings, I want them too" when he died?. I like to think in that timeline even as a spirit he's still watching the main characters of the story
Seeing Max filled with joy around Final Fantasy 7 is what I enjoy out of him, what can I say? Final Fantasy 7 is the reason I also got into FF, and the environment is beautiful!
Max's joy is so infectious when I saw the trailer at first I thought it was just kind of cool didn't really wow me and now rewatching the trailer with his reaction has got me smiling ear-to-ear😅
My theory is that Sephiroth is trying to prevent Cloud and Tifa’s lifestream trip. If the two are at odds with each other then she never gets to recover him and Cloud is lost forever, not able to fight Sephiroth.
@@RicochetForce Yep. And it makes sense. Last year’s trailer where Tifa accused Cloud of thinking she’s an imposter, this trailer having the Whisper glitch after the Kalm INN scene, and Sephiroth’s comment about her dying as she gets sliced. Too much about the two of them doubting each other for it to be a coincidence.
What I love the most: A) Max's reaction. Because it's everything lol B) they only gave us storyline from the OG FFVII with the exception of the beginning showing Barrett, Tifa, Aerith, and Red on the stretchers presumably dead. Just everything about this game...I LOVE IT!!!
Yuffie is terrified of Jenova 🥺 Nero totally screwed her up. Intermission hinted at Wutai changing a ton but there's a whole other dimension to her character with this. I couldn't be happier with how big a revamp her story is getting and I expect the same for Cid, Vincent and Cait Sith the story is going to be so rich.
@@Ramsey276one Yuffie and Vincent need more story, Were getting Dirge weaved it to the main story but good this time (Keep Shelke tf out though). Yuffie is a better foil for Nero as she's more vulnerable than Vincent, The proto materia making Vincent immune to his dark energy neutered him he was too strong for his own good narratively.
@@Ramsey276one well the old one no but from what has been said back then the third or fourth part of the FF7 remake will be focussing on like DoC and other postgame material like FF7AC in a playable form from what I remember.
I thought I might have been the only one that thought the ending of the Midgar section was the end of original Final Fantasy 7 and then had my mind blown when the open world area was revealed. Memories of 1997! Also, Cait Sith is probably going to be pronounced "Cat Shee" not "Kate Sith".
As far as I remember, in the post credits sequence with zack, they walk “past” the main party from the game. And it feels like it’s in a “different time/timeline/space” but in the same location. So yeah, I think that’s the case. They will probably meet up as Sephiroth has in the first game. Probably have a cloud meeting cloud moment. Or maybe he dies in zack’s timeline and then they have the emotional reunion as their friend died in each of their original timelines
Back when they made the ps3 tech demo that same night I had a dream of me playing what I imagined Final Fantasy Remake would look and play like and this is not far off, however it was a part that hasn't been shown or even barely spoken about, I was piloting the highwind, chasing the Ultima Weapon through the valleys of Cosmo Canyon, all in a cool action sequence with the Weapon Raid theme playing. If this comes true then I will be super happy.
Max’s reaction to this trailer was perfect and everything I was hoping for and more! His first reaction and being speechless and then analyzing everything was great, especially when the Dual Techs were revealed! Max and NicoB’s hype reactions to FF7R got me invested in the Remake and I’m so excited to experience Rebirth with everyone!
I definitely blowed chunks after watching this! They ALL ride Chocobos! Red XII’s gameplay with Yuffie, Jenova second fight, Elena is finally real! Omg I’m so hyped I could cry 😭 The fact a modern game takes 2 discs shows just how much content will be in part 2. I wonder how far we’ll get? Maybe we’ll meet Cid but he won’t join us yet? Or after “someone” dies at the end. I’m just glad it’ll be longer than part 1, I’m gonna be so lost in this game So this time it’s just PS5 only they’re going the FF16 route
Anyone notice that the music played during our group being injured in the beginning is music from the arbiter of fate boss fight? That means them being injured/killed is a direct result of that battle
It seems like zacks timeline may be what the writers wanted to do in the original. Remember how in the return to midgar for the raid they wanted to kill basically the whole party? I’m thinking that’s what’s happening for zacks timeline
I can’t believe how good this looked, the way they captured the essence of the open world from the original is nothing short of AMAZING to me. Surpassed my expectations
I want a translation for that Japanese trailer. In English, at the end, Sephiroth says “you know I killed her. So, who is ‘she’?” But in the Japanese at that same point, you can clearly hear him name Tifa.
He says (basically) that “I had already killed Tifa. So then who is that?” So…Tifa is killed in this timeline??😮 It’s weird they left her name out of the English version, maybe to be more vague?
@@baerishlyakita3711 hm. That definitely sounds like he’s fucking with Cloud. Like, I imagine Cloud is getting shattered pieces of memories from the original timeline, and he can’t piece together *who* he’s mourning in the images he’s seeing. So Sephiroth is saying “it’s Tifa lol” to fuck with his head and put him off his game.
Been thinking and I could see them not wanting to make the player break away from Cloud to play solely as Zack during the Zack timeline segments. We may get Cloud, Zack, Jessie, Wedge, & Biggs as the party for the alternate timeline?
@@thedarkderp2520 Maybe but I think the entire game is just two discs and you’ll probably cut between the timelines at certain events across both discs. I dunno how I’d like it if they split the timeline stuff into separate discs, but it depends on how it’s handled. I hope we get an interview soon and they discuss this a little more. For the whole game to take up 2 discs makes sense. The original is a huge game and they made the Midgar section into a whole 40 hr game - when in the original it’s only 6 hrs of a much larger game. They still have a ton left to cover, and still a 3rd game on the way.
Cloud would still be in a semi vegetable state in that timeline though, also, there is all the Turks who would be on Zack's side. Kunsel could be their intel guy as well. With the main party being dead, we could have other characters join Zack's party as well.
Its possible that the team met up earlier without cloud and almost made it out of the shinra building when the tornado came … just as cloud and zack were coming in … now theyre dead and only cloud and zack are alive which is why we see zack come in to the residents crying
NOT PICTURED: -During the show, a hidden video is uploaded to the Final Fantasy UA-cam channel. Everyone freaks out. Then we see a trailer for EverCrisis, and everyone calms down. -Right after the Ever Crisis reveal, Geoff said "Speaking of Final Fantasy" and the crowd GASPED. He then said "no no guys" and launched into a DoorDash promo where you can win FF7 swag, and everyone laughed. It all built to this perfect ending.
Seeing those four on stretchers at the beginning make me think it’s after that scene where the plot ghosts protect them from that crash on the highway in the first game. Except in this reality, they weren’t protected.
what vision? you mean from OG? ya.... no. this is a reimagining. nowhere near the original vision. im looking forward to the art, visuals, combat, gameplay, character interactions. ive given up on the story 100%
@@phillystevesteak6982 the og originally had most of the party die but the story was changed. Now they're going back to it. It's literally the vision they had years ago lol.
@@someguy5319 But imagine leading on an audience that it's a remake they asked for for 20+ years, only to call it FF7 remake when it's really a sequel. I digress, yesterday's news
I literally watched other people react. but it just wasnt the same as Max reaacting. Max Reacting to Final Fantasy 7 fills me with joy. I kept going "WHEN IS MAX GONNA UPLOAD. aa" lol
The tornado could refer to the Whisper tornado at the end of Remake…. but what about Story of the Ancients scene in Remake? The one where Barret, Tifa and Cloud are in the simulation room If you remember that scene from Remake, you'll also remember the simulation room glitched and showed Midgar being destroyed by several orange "tornadoes" (essentially the end of FF7 OG). Soon after, Cloud turns around and sees Barret and Tifa dead. What do we see in the new Rebirth trailer? Barret and Tifa in gurneys supposedly dead. The news clip in the Rebirth trailer could be the aftermath of this glitched scene from Remake. My theory is that in the simulation room in Remake, Sephiroth actually showed Cloud Zack's timeline when "tornadoes swept through sector 0, 1 and 2."
I definitely think your on to something But I find it real interesting that after they show all the bodies they cut to the glitching feather right before the final fight in remake I wonder if when they went through that portal thats what cause these versions to die
@8:52 When Aerith is calling for Tifa to join in on the dualtech style attack, and the party is them and Cloud, you can see Barrett in the background start shooting at something. It'll be interesting to see if there is an active PHS system that allows other characters to swap in since they are present during the combat sequence.

When Max becomes a kid again, *everyone* becomes a kid with him. We need TWO discs for this masterpiece. God this trailer was everything. 🔥🔥
Honestly it's wild, a modern game, on the PS5, needs 2 discs? It has to be massive. The last multi disc game I played was Star Ocean 4 on the 360.
That also mean that the Digital version is gonna be MASSIVE. Like you might have to have it be the only game in your library to have enough space for it.
Pc as well
Actally we need 3 discs for full experience 🤣
@@ValbrandrLeonhardt Remake was 2 discs.
I subscribed to this channel just because of the sheer joy that FFVII gives to Max. I know the feeling all too well so it's entertaining for me to see someone share the same kind of passion,
Being able to vicariously play FF7 so passionately through someone who is so infatuated with the game is truly special. Max's FF7 playthroughs are some of the best pieces of content ever produced by him solely because of his knowledge and love for the games. Whenever im sick or sad ill go watch anything FF7 related and feel so elated that someone can be so happy and love the game, himself, and the community around it so much.
Same! never played OG FFVII and jumped on the remake after stumbling upon Max's channel going crazy over the remake's ending, then went and beat the OG, can't wait to see Max lose his mind when this drops
Let the crazy theories continue!
I subscribed for the FF7 content as well. Max’s love for it just enhances my love for it hahahaha!
12:05 Just a reminder that the Laguna part in FF 8 is NOT a different timeline, but a series important moments that happened in the past.
My favorite thing is that Max has built his entire career around the FGC and fighting games, built one of the best fighting game channels on youtube and twitch, the best Street Fighter possibly *ever* just came out, and the happiest I've ever seen Max is when watching a trailer for an RPG. His infectious hype got me to bite on FF7R and I didn't regret a second of it.
I think the entire gaming community is connected by FF7. Some may love it more than other, but everyone is at least familiar with it.
I'm pretty sure I found Max through his FF7-related content, and I love coming to see his reactions to everything new coming out about this Remake trilogy. That said, his fighting game content is equally fantastic, so whenever I (someone who isn't particularly into fighting games) decide to dabble in one, I come to his channel to watch him discuss the game and see if I can pick up any tricks to improve my skills.
I wanna play ff7r, and I got bored halfway through the original. The combat just looks so hype, like crisis core which is lowkey what carried me through that game 🙃
Max is such a great content creator. Even though I found him through game reveal reactions, it was his personality that made me stay and watch him play games. Also, a fighting game enthusiast' favorite game is an RPG but his future predictions power is also something that can't be ignored. It's truly the power of having 99+ insights.
All I watch of Max is rpgs and resident evil,
I wonder if Sephiroth was talking about Tifa like the trailer shows, or if he was talking about Aerith? I love that the fact that this whole new Remake series being a sequel is something that Sephiroth, Aerith, and Cloud may finally start talking about normally. Also Max was spot on about which character would know what's going on lol.
Edit: I see now, Sephiroth was taking about Tifa based on the Japanese trailer. Thanks for informing me guys! Hopefully this clears up any confusion for others too.
If you were a Jenova clone, would you even be aware of it?
Considering the Japanese version of the trailer during that section has Sephiroth straight up say that he killed Tifa, I'd say the former.
My interpretation is that, because Tifa is going to be vocalizing her doubts in Cloud’s story earlier, Sephiroth will be intrusively making Cloud distrustful of Tifa, giving the “true” story of what happened in Nibelheim a he said/she said quality. It preserves the tension of what really happened for new players, gives Tifa permission to be smart, and gives Cloud a believable reason to not be listening to Tifa if she challenges his recollection. He doesn’t know why she’s not dead, she doesn’t know why he knows all this.
Wow. So he straight up killed Tifa. Damn.
@@Shantae1188 he only thinks he killed her she actually survives when zangan finds her their and brings her to Midgar
Yuffie's reaction to Sephiroth appearing in that violet hue implies that Sephiroth's new powers are related to Stagnant Mako. That is why Yuffie freaked out so much.
Yuffie recognized the violet energy as the same Stagnant spirit energy that Nero used. So it looks like Sephiroth has learned how to ustilize the Stagnant Lifestream, which is made of sould that have refused to become part of the normal flow of the Lifestream.
I think that part is actually where Yuffie steals the material from Cloud 🤫
If you think about that only Sephiroth and Nero has slitted cat-eyes in the entire game and the signatures of their powers are highly similar, it is highly possible that you are right.
Fun fact. That reaction is what the development team was looking for from max. Infact they got better than they thought. They wanted to top his old reaction😂😂😂
They need some max-hypedrenaline for the devs to keep them fuled 😂
@@christophpoll784 To be honest, it works. I work in animation, and watching reactions can completely spark you, especially in crunch periods!
HOLD ON TO YOUR BUTTS!
That’s not a fact at all, they made this trailer for all FF7 fans but yeah his reaction was priceless
@@lightup6751 well obviously not a fact lol
My favorite part is when he just stated that the whole party is dead. That made me laugh. "Barret is dead!" "Tifa is dead!" "They killed the dog!" Lmao. Everything about this, the stream and the trailer is what I live for. What a time to be alive!
Max's appreciation and just honest cheerfulness during this whole part was amazing to watch. Really puts a smile on one's face.
People have weird one sided relationships with internet personalities. Really sounds like you need a life.
That pure, innocent joy from Max freaking out over any new FF7 news is always infectious. He's probably the best salesperson Square-Enix could ever have hoped for with these remakes. 😂
I mean, tbh this is how everybody should be reacting.
@@GoldenMushroom64 I doubt people who didn't like the first remake will like this one
@@Bluueara or people who don’t have the platform to play it
FF7 hasn’t been a thing for decades & square enix is a joke lmao
@@GoldenMushroom64 Unfortunately a lot of people don’t really know what Final Fantasy is and how important was for the modern industry.
I laughed so hard at Max screaming "BUGENHAGEN" bc that was exactly my reaction too the first time I saw the trailer xD Max getting all giddy over FFVII is my happy place:3
Max is SO passionate about this game. This review trailer needs to go viral, just so the world can see what True joy looks like. It's so infectious I found myself smiling without even knowing.
He’s not vibrating in the thumbnail.
He’s still, he’s calm. All has been revealed, his faith rewarded.
Lol I felt like THIS was the trailer where we'll see a Vibrating MAX 😅 but he kept it cool
Man’s at peace with the life stream
He has become one with the lifestream
Nico was vibrating in the thumbnail to his reaction to make up for it. Where Max shows composure, his mods must succumb to where hype within hype awaits them.
Max ending up nearly in tears had me nearly in tears, love how much passion he has for FF7
Dude asking what is happening, that gets me thinking he doesn't know shit about FF... Everybody who played the game back then knows already what happened, and if you played the remake of Crisis Core you would still know... What passion are you talking about I wonder?
@Yunsha is this your first time watching his videos? Imagine thinking Max doesn't know about FF7.
The "what is happening " isn't confusion, it's excitement similar to "I can't believe I'm watching this".
Plus Remake/rebirth isn't 1 to 1 so no one really knows what is going to happen. It's a different time line from OG FF7. This has been covered quite a bit already.
@@yunsha9986 so you played the of and the remake and still didn't understand that the remake is not the same as the original?!
@@yunsha9986imagine being so wrong so confidently, crazy
same bro love the man
In the combat cut outside Junon where they are showing off RED XIII's combat, the party consists of Cloud, Barret, and Red. If you pause, you can see Tifa sitting outside the battle about 20 yards, so I'm expecting party swaps now too, while in mid battle like FF10.
and Aerith
3:25
And when the ladies are fighting you can see Barrett around 3:30
@@Elzmack91 AND he’s helping out by shooting!
Well done bro !
Yoooo I didn't even notice. That's awesome!
You know my favorite part of the trailer? Aerith with her hands behind her back shuffling/kicking her feet in the river. It's just an adorable cute little background scene that adds nothing but I love it.
My favorite part was all of the stuff that was cooler than that
3:17 That new arrange mix for the 'Valkyrie' theme went into my eardrums and straight to my soul. So good!
It’s crazy that I’m nostalgic for stuff that originated in Remake now! It’s not just OG nostalgia anymore. Love the new tracks in Remake. Glad to hear this new mix too.
HEEEEEY what’s up bro thanks for your uploads lol
@GoldenOracle64 Hey glad you enjoy the extra Max videos
gotta agree !
I'm glad they realized The Valkyrie theme is so great it deserves to be trailer music.
I was hella excited to hear it again. That song was my number 1 favorite from Remake.
It’s my favourite song from the remake. Love that they brought it back.
Isn't it a new version used in the trailer? It sounds different
@@Linkenfant
Yeah, it’s a new remix.
100% agreed..its my favorite from the remake!!
Watching Max react to the FF7 trailers is like watching a child open presents on Christmas...pure joy and wonderment! Its the only reaction videos i enjoy n feel theyre 110% legit.
I felt the same way!
"Two dicks, one uriney" I .... PLEASE don't Kingdom Hearts this thing, I beg you Nomura, I will sign that thing I promise, just *PLEASE DON'T DO THIS to seven, I'm askin' you bro, like a.... well pretend I'm a man, I'M BEGGIN' YOU, please....."
Theory: the Cloud we see at 4:02 is from the Zack timeline, we know because of events he should still be "sick" there which would let Jenova control him much easier, would not be shocked if they go this route
@@RicochetForce It also gives a great goal for Zack on top of it for his story, to find Cloud, maybe even as a final boss for him?
I think it's also tied to the beginning of the trailer. They all died in Zacks timeline cause Cloud wasn't there, notice how they didn't show Clouds body being hauled away. My thought is Zack lived and Cloud never got better in that timeline and eventually left for the reunion forcing Zack to search for him so Avalance never had Cloud or Zack join them and they ended up dieing because of the singularity at the end of remake.
Its kind of a given, its also possible that the explosion of the Whispers didnt just split the timeline but pushed Zack and Cloud from that branch foward in time given that
A. Zack doesnt find Aerith in the church and people are taking refuge as if after a incident.
B. The news info at the start of the trailer doesnt have Cloud in it. Maybe the trailer cut off before showing him or for all we know it could also be Shinra propaganda to say that the cause of the destruction was neutralized.
But this trailer definetly confirmed that Zack will be a key player in this and the finale of the trilogy
What was the name of that guy that worked for Don Corneo in Remake ? I when I saw that hooded figured I immediately thought of him for some reason
It’s one timeline 🙄 duh!
Hello! I am Japanese.
I'm glad you enjoyed Final Fantasy VII and commented! My heart loves you who never forgets the heart of a boy! Please enjoy Final Fantasy VII! I'm rooting for you!
Fellow type moon fan ❤️
Max’s hype and love for FF7 is so damn infectious that it actually made me play the original before Remake came out and I became such a big fan! I’m obsessed with FF7 OG and Remake, they’re both some of my favorite games of all time thanks to Max. I even went and played/beat FF9 because my interest in Final Fantasy kept growing. My hype is growing everyday since I finished Remake.
It’s crazy there’s still new players playing FF7 25 years after I experienced it for the first time. 🎉
I literally just went on your Twitch channel to search for this reaction because I ran out of patience waiting for you to upload it. So basically, my patience ran out after about 15 minutes. You're the best, Max.
Damn a ff7 fan AND a devils fan? niceeee
@@TheNamesMoose30 OH yeah, buddy. 😃
I did that too lol
@@awtodor Me too 😅
Same lmao
Max's face says it all. I wouldn't be surprised if Nomura has put up a "do it for him" board filled with Max's different expresions whenever something about the new FFVII comes up
hm well seeing as nomura is more of a creative consultant and no longer director, probably not lol
@@phillystevesteak6982 So long as Nomura can keep Kitase reigned in we're gucci.
@@phillystevesteak6982 no he is the creative director of the project, he isn't directing the game day to day, but everything goes through him and no big decisions would be made without him - he's the exec producer/showrunner in TV terms - obv its collaborative and he lets the game director do his thing, but creatively in terms of design/character/story he is absolutely 100% heavily involved in all of it
@@lofirecordclub I agree. But he's not big dawg anymore
@@lofirecordclub As long as he sticks with being a creative director, not pushing other stuff and solely focusing on the visuals, I'm good with it. And as long as Kitase can keep Nomura in check and make sure the guy is working, we'll get a good game.
So lucky to live in a timeline that I got to experience OG FF7 when it came out and Remake now. I’m so ridiculously hyped.
I kinda envy you I didn't played the og when it came out, and I played on pc years later but the game was bugged(pirate version since I lived in cuba back then)so I couldn't finish it. I don't have that nostalgia for the game but I'm inlove with this new one.
Man, just wish I liked the remake at all. Honestly hated a lot of the changes and I hate the combat to boot. It's just not great. I would hope Rebirth would fix a lot of those issues, but I seriously doubt it.
I played Crisis Core blind (no knowledge of anything FF7) and got emotionally punched in the gut for it.
I played FF7 shortly after.
Even though I would have loved to see FF7 when it was brand new, I'm also ridiculously hyped.
@@kugetsu
You hate the changes because you either haven’t realized it’s actually a sequel or you simply don’t want a sequel. These games are basically FF7-2 while hitting the beats of a remake.
I've never even played any of these games but the passion Max has is so pure, thank you for sharing that with us.
You should try it. I'm not gonna hype it up and say it's the best game of all time, but it's worth playing for certain
I only started the game ps4 and was like maybe i'll play when i get the ps5, but the demo really sells the game well
You don't need to play them all to play any of them. Every game has a completely new and different world and story and characters
If you got it for free on ps plus it is a must play
@@chrissears5482 FF7R is a sort of pseudo sequel to the og FF7, making the mistake of only playing the remake will just leave you confused.
FFVII means so much to me as somebody who played it at launch when it came out in 1997 as a 16 year old. Clearly means just as much and more to those making the remake too.. an amazing treat
This really looks like a labor of love from the devs. It looks incredible, every bit as good as part 1.
Ya know, with all the remakes, sequels etc these days failing and never living up to what they should… i’m just so glad they didnt rush this game. If there was one remake in my life i didnt want them to ruin, it was this, and thus far… they’ve delivered.
Combo limit breaks with other characters is the coolest thing ever.
WAT
It's like Chrono Trigger all over again.
Hope we get a good number of Double Techs here.
@@truefenriz but what if we get... Triple Techs?
@@Evilriku13That would be so dope!
@@truefenriz Bet you there’s a trophy for utilizing every dual tech. So at least 36 combinations, not counting potential triples! Or multiples!
Seeing him hyped and on the verge of tears watching this is such a beautiful thing because it's a shared experience we all have had and understand 🤜🤛 rock on Max!🤟
I get such a stupid grin on my face when I see people so excited for something ❤🎉
Me to since 1997
There is nothing stupid about it, only the totally bs thoughts that humans add to the experience.
To grin and smile is infectious because it comes from love, joy and life itself
I end up so stupidly happy watching other people be overjoyed that it makes me giggle uncontrollably to myself lmao
@@hiroasuakika7144 Likewise! It’s such a wonderful feeling
As someone who is still super new to Final Fantasy (playing 9 rn and its so charming), this is really cool to see just how much love care and passion that is clearly going into this. Im definitely going to play the og FF7 first but its going to be cool to see where the journey takes these characters.
When I was a kid, I really disliked 9 and thought it was too kiddy, but as an adult where every day feels like a grimdark adventure, FF9 really put the Fantasy back in it for me.
@@Shiftshapercat Ah i see i see. Tbh ive never seen anything that way but thats cool that you like it now
every trailer reveal, i always look up on Max’s reaction because it makes me more hype and excited
I know, right lol.
Absolutely amazing. I wish the part Geoff trolled the audience with the door dash part was added to this at the beginning hahaha
Watching Max get excited over FFVII is one of life's greatest little joys. And I am so honored that he shares it with us.
I honestly don't think the party is dead in Zack's timeline - perhaps critically injured, and ShinRa is collecting them to do nefarious testing because you KNOW Hojo has a vested interest in them after they all survived his trials in Remake.
Or it could just be a ShinRa propaganda piece.
Max’s FF7 reactions are always so wholesome also i can’t wait for another hr plus video where he basically calls everything that’s gonna happen 😂
When I saw the trailer with Max, I have massive goosebumps and in awe by the amount of sheer contents that the games gonna have and also the fact that it comes with two disc really makes it even more awesome.
Yeah that two disc announcement for it got me hype for the length and possibilities for Rebirth
FF7 Remake came with 2 discs too. It could just be a data disc and a play disc. But nonethless, still massive.
@@jony7sama I wanted to say the same thing, everyone keeps forgetting that Remake was on two discs already.
However, you also have to keep in mind that PS4 compression was way worse than PS5 compression. When you look at the file sizes of a PS4 app compared to its PS5 app of the same game, the PS5 version is always about 30% smaller despite looking better. (Part of that is also that there is no need for data redundancy on a game specifically baked for SSDs)
That 1:49 reaction is a Class A example of max's energy. It's why I watch him 😂
I like how he all of a sudden noticed how off the rails he was and had to force himself to tone it down because otherwise he was going to miss details.
It was just such a pure display of emotion that you don't always get to see, especially with streamers trying to overreact to everything.
@@hyperbandit yup. There's a reason it was HIM at that celebration event as opposed to any other content creator. His energy is so damn addictive and I think game companies/developers are more aware of max than anyone else.
The child-like joy Max exhibits anytime FF VII anything is put in front of his face is a true joy.
Yeah it's an act to get free stuff and keep the money coming in.
@@allenniumfalcon If that was the case then Max would be positive about everything FF7 but he's very clear about the fact that he hates the new characters in Advent Children, he hates everything about Dirge of Cerberus and he's neutral when it comes to the new story in Remake and he'll take a side when everyone gets the full picture.
@@allenniumfalcon You're objectively wrong.
@@jackmanleblanc2518 You're objectively a simp.
At 14:00 I felt this so much. Max your reactions to anything FF7 are amazing and genuinely real!
Every time I see Max get hyped over these FF7 games, my own hype increases 😆 I’m so excited, I cannot wait for this game to come out!
Even though the trailer showed everything he’s been talking about for 3 yrs now, I’m still entertained by how excited he gets about the exact things he predicted and wanted
I think for cloud in zacks timeline, it might be when we see him in the robes saying “reunion”. Without tifa helping cloud and the death of zack not propelling cloud for his story, he might now actually just be another sephiroth clone
That's my exact theory so far. Especially since we don't see Clouds body at the beginning of the trailer. I also want to put forth the reason Zack didn't go straight to Aerith because Cloud never got better and left for the Reunion. Zack would obviously go looking for him, taking him out of the action. Which in turn would end up getting them all killed. Although I wonder if the Sigularity Killed them or maybe they Died fighting a version of Sephiroth since they didn't have Cloud/Zack there to help. Or were they just a casualty of the Singularity causing Tornandos when our Group destroyed the whispers.
@@RicochetForce I think that's right. And this is wild speculation, but I could even see them making the 'alternate timeline' versions of Jesse, Wedge, etc into Zack's party.
@@RicochetForce Cissnei was woefully underutilized in the FF7 compilation; she was a great addition to Crisis Core and I hope that she gets a role in this.
@@RicochetForce I don't think Aerith is dead, possibly just knocked out or something, her hands looked crossed on her chest under the blanket and she doesn't look dead dead like the rest of them.
It also doesn't make sense that she would even meat Avalanche without Cloud, Cloud is the one that falls down onto her flowers and meets her and then brings her to Section 7 and introduces her to Avalanche.
Red X makes sense because they meet him when they invade Shrina Tower which is more plausible that they would end up going there even without cloud at some point.
I dunno they will have to explain it all.
@@RicochetForce bingo. Poor Zack tho… bro either dies or sees all of his friends end up in these tragedies. Bro can’t win lol
Was literally waiting for Max’s reaction, the pure joy and excitement would give so much more motivation for the FFVII team. Also, don’t forget Taco Bell for the win lmao
Loved this reaction, so much joy. It's crazy to think about since it's been such a long journey just to get to the first game and now the 2nd one is coming out soon. Very cool.
I cant wait to see Barret and Vincent's team combo just shooting the shit outta something lol
Lol 😂
Max's giddiness over the entire thing is really contagious cause I could feel my grin getting wider and wider as the video went on
We all knew it was coming but even then we just couldn't stop cheering and just laughing and smiling! Max's reaction live was absolutely amazing! Rebirth just looks absolutely amazing and I can't wait!
Max, you are THE guy I go to when it comes to getting hyped about FF7. You embody that contagious excitement perfectly! Thank you.
Thank you Max, for another video to add to my "watch when you're sad" list
I like that they added the team attacks. It makes the combat a lot more fun for sure
Oh yeah, it was awesome in intermission and that was just with two characters, now we have the entire party.
dual techs man ala chrono trigger and recently Sea of Stars.
I nearly cried watching this. It’s insane how special this franchise has become again. FF16 and SF6 will take up all of my gaming needs for the rest of the year until Spider-Man 2 in October, and then FF7 Rebirth in 2024 😭
Same!!!!!
BEST YEAR OF GAMING
Man I need to beat Tears of the Kingdom soon
The immeasurable hysteria and hype surrounding this game along with the community and chatroom is why im a Max and yovideogames fan! Couldnt be happier for everyone one involved! LETS GOOO! 🎉
I wish I could love anything in this life as much as Max loves FF7...
Think back to your childhood, there was probably something. FF7 might be Max's Rosebud
You can always try Metal Gear
In the trailer for the 25th anniversary Tifa said "are You saying that I died, that I'm an impostor". They're hinting at It in both trailers. Also, could there be a connection between the Eagle that flies at the beginning of remake and in the final scene of Intergrade and Zack saying "those wings, I want them too" when he died?. I like to think in that timeline even as a spirit he's still watching the main characters of the story
I totally relate how max reacts, this is literally a dream come true
Seeing Max filled with joy around Final Fantasy 7 is what I enjoy out of him, what can I say? Final Fantasy 7 is the reason I also got into FF, and the environment is beautiful!
FF7 is dead & gone.
Your hype for FF7 never ceases to be infectious. Thanks for being an inspiration as always dood.
Max's joy is so infectious when I saw the trailer at first I thought it was just kind of cool didn't really wow me and now rewatching the trailer with his reaction has got me smiling ear-to-ear😅
I literally tear down from excitement and this reaction is pure gold, this is exactly how i feel! lmao
Brought me to tears, This is the definitive remake/reimagining any creative studio should learn from.
We're all better for people like Max and the joy he feels for things that give us joy. I love this channel and all it does!
My theory is that Sephiroth is trying to prevent Cloud and Tifa’s lifestream trip. If the two are at odds with each other then she never gets to recover him and Cloud is lost forever, not able to fight Sephiroth.
@@RicochetForce Yep. And it makes sense. Last year’s trailer where Tifa accused Cloud of thinking she’s an imposter, this trailer having the Whisper glitch after the Kalm INN scene, and Sephiroth’s comment about her dying as she gets sliced. Too much about the two of them doubting each other for it to be a coincidence.
@@RicochetForce witch is gona make that scene with tifa hit even harder In part 3
@@RicochetForce Jenova can “appear” as a people we “love” as well, as Sephiroth said in the trailer. 👀
I already have seen the trailer at least a dozen of times, and also the max reaction on the twitch vod many times
What I love the most:
A) Max's reaction. Because it's everything lol
B) they only gave us storyline from the OG FFVII with the exception of the beginning showing Barrett, Tifa, Aerith, and Red on the stretchers presumably dead.
Just everything about this game...I LOVE IT!!!
Oh you just KNOW that the development team are still watching these videos and getting hyped all over again!
We need reactions to the reaction!
Max’s passion for FF7 is awesome. He makes me feel the hype and love for the game
Yuffie is terrified of Jenova 🥺 Nero totally screwed her up. Intermission hinted at Wutai changing a ton but there's a whole other dimension to her character with this. I couldn't be happier with how big a revamp her story is getting and I expect the same for Cid, Vincent and Cait Sith the story is going to be so rich.
Dirge of Cerberus is canon now?
Necessary material?!
Let the crazy theories continue!
@@Ramsey276one Yuffie and Vincent need more story, Were getting Dirge weaved it to the main story but good this time (Keep Shelke tf out though). Yuffie is a better foil for Nero as she's more vulnerable than Vincent, The proto materia making Vincent immune to his dark energy neutered him he was too strong for his own good narratively.
@@DayFul agreed
@@Ramsey276one well the old one no but from what has been said back then the third or fourth part of the FF7 remake will be focussing on like DoC and other postgame material like FF7AC in a playable form from what I remember.
I thought I might have been the only one that thought the ending of the Midgar section was the end of original Final Fantasy 7 and then had my mind blown when the open world area was revealed. Memories of 1997!
Also, Cait Sith is probably going to be pronounced "Cat Shee" not "Kate Sith".
As far as I remember, in the post credits sequence with zack, they walk “past” the main party from the game. And it feels like it’s in a “different time/timeline/space” but in the same location. So yeah, I think that’s the case. They will probably meet up as Sephiroth has in the first game. Probably have a cloud meeting cloud moment. Or maybe he dies in zack’s timeline and then they have the emotional reunion as their friend died in each of their original timelines
Watch the game need 2 discs, because 1 disc is clouds journey and the other disc is Zacks. It's extreme hopium, but it would be epic
@@ValbrandrLeonhardt yeah I thought the same and maybe you can choose or so.. like play 2 different games 😅
Back when they made the ps3 tech demo that same night I had a dream of me playing what I imagined Final Fantasy Remake would look and play like and this is not far off, however it was a part that hasn't been shown or even barely spoken about, I was piloting the highwind, chasing the Ultima Weapon through the valleys of Cosmo Canyon, all in a cool action sequence with the Weapon Raid theme playing.
If this comes true then I will be super happy.
Max's reaction is a must after every new FF VII R news.
Sephiroth is trying to convince Cloud that Tifa is dead.
Max’s reaction to this trailer was perfect and everything I was hoping for and more! His first reaction and being speechless and then analyzing everything was great, especially when the Dual Techs were revealed! Max and NicoB’s hype reactions to FF7R got me invested in the Remake and I’m so excited to experience Rebirth with everyone!
Rewatched this a few times now, Max is such a wholesome dude 😊
I definitely blowed chunks after watching this!
They ALL ride Chocobos! Red XII’s gameplay with Yuffie, Jenova second fight, Elena is finally real! Omg I’m so hyped I could cry 😭
The fact a modern game takes 2 discs shows just how much content will be in part 2. I wonder how far we’ll get? Maybe we’ll meet Cid but he won’t join us yet? Or after “someone” dies at the end. I’m just glad it’ll be longer than part 1, I’m gonna be so lost in this game
So this time it’s just PS5 only they’re going the FF16 route
Anyone notice that the music played during our group being injured in the beginning is music from the arbiter of fate boss fight? That means them being injured/killed is a direct result of that battle
It also shows the feather on the highway right before they walk through the portal that aierth says will change everything
I think it’s time to have some uncomfortable conversations and admit that these three parts are gonna be better than the original
Nah
You know it
100%
Yes!!
True but boomers wont admit it
It seems like zacks timeline may be what the writers wanted to do in the original. Remember how in the return to midgar for the raid they wanted to kill basically the whole party? I’m thinking that’s what’s happening for zacks timeline
When the music start kickn man the chills, remake was already crazy. Rebirth will make you insane. I love it !
I watch this every morning after brushing my teeth for my daily dose of wholesome and hype
I can’t believe how good this looked, the way they captured the essence of the open world from the original is nothing short of AMAZING to me. Surpassed my expectations
I want a translation for that Japanese trailer.
In English, at the end, Sephiroth says “you know I killed her. So, who is ‘she’?”
But in the Japanese at that same point, you can clearly hear him name Tifa.
Because english are fake. And japanese script are the true one forever.
He says (basically) that “I had already killed Tifa. So then who is that?”
So…Tifa is killed in this timeline??😮
It’s weird they left her name out of the English version, maybe to be more vague?
@@baerishlyakita3711 hm. That definitely sounds like he’s fucking with Cloud. Like, I imagine Cloud is getting shattered pieces of memories from the original timeline, and he can’t piece together *who* he’s mourning in the images he’s seeing.
So Sephiroth is saying “it’s Tifa lol” to fuck with his head and put him off his game.
I've been refreshing my subscription page non-stop for this video lmaoo
Now THIS is a proper reaction for Rebirth's reveal!
1:57 Max got so excited that his mind had to snap him back to reality
Been thinking and I could see them not wanting to make the player break away from Cloud to play solely as Zack during the Zack timeline segments. We may get Cloud, Zack, Jessie, Wedge, & Biggs as the party for the alternate timeline?
Cloud might be disc 1 and Zack might be disc 2
@@thedarkderp2520 Maybe but I think the entire game is just two discs and you’ll probably cut between the timelines at certain events across both discs. I dunno how I’d like it if they split the timeline stuff into separate discs, but it depends on how it’s handled. I hope we get an interview soon and they discuss this a little more. For the whole game to take up 2 discs makes sense. The original is a huge game and they made the Midgar section into a whole 40 hr game - when in the original it’s only 6 hrs of a much larger game. They still have a ton left to cover, and still a 3rd game on the way.
Cloud would still be in a semi vegetable state in that timeline though, also, there is all the Turks who would be on Zack's side. Kunsel could be their intel guy as well. With the main party being dead, we could have other characters join Zack's party as well.
Its possible that the team met up earlier without cloud and almost made it out of the shinra building when the tornado came … just as cloud and zack were coming in … now theyre dead and only cloud and zack are alive which is why we see zack come in to the residents crying
@@gozogo1233 Yeah he’s still in a comatose state but I think they’ll figure out a way to heal Cloud in the Zack timeline.
Seeing Max this happy just makes me happy to see that he's this happy.

-During the show, a hidden video is uploaded to the Final Fantasy UA-cam channel. Everyone freaks out. Then we see a trailer for EverCrisis, and everyone calms down.
-Right after the Ever Crisis reveal, Geoff said "Speaking of Final Fantasy" and the crowd GASPED. He then said "no no guys" and launched into a DoorDash promo where you can win FF7 swag, and everyone laughed.
It all built to this perfect ending.
Seeing Max react to this just like I did is great. Rebirth looks to be amazing!
Seeing those four on stretchers at the beginning make me think it’s after that scene where the plot ghosts protect them from that crash on the highway in the first game. Except in this reality, they weren’t protected.
They finally get to complete the vision they had YEARS AGO. This is really cool. And 2 discs like the old days 😂
what vision? you mean from OG? ya.... no. this is a reimagining. nowhere near the original vision. im looking forward to the art, visuals, combat, gameplay, character interactions. ive given up on the story 100%
@@phillystevesteak6982 its not a reimagining its a sequel bro
@@phillystevesteak6982 the og originally had most of the party die but the story was changed. Now they're going back to it. It's literally the vision they had years ago lol.
@@someguy5319 that's fair. Sequel, then
@@someguy5319 But imagine leading on an audience that it's a remake they asked for for 20+ years, only to call it FF7 remake when it's really a sequel. I digress, yesterday's news
I literally watched other people react. but it just wasnt the same as Max reaacting. Max Reacting to Final Fantasy 7 fills me with joy. I kept going "WHEN IS MAX GONNA UPLOAD. aa" lol
The tornado could refer to the Whisper tornado at the end of Remake…. but what about Story of the Ancients scene in Remake? The one where Barret, Tifa and Cloud are in the simulation room
If you remember that scene from Remake, you'll also remember the simulation room glitched and showed Midgar being destroyed by several orange "tornadoes" (essentially the end of FF7 OG). Soon after, Cloud turns around and sees Barret and Tifa dead. What do we see in the new Rebirth trailer? Barret and Tifa in gurneys supposedly dead.
The news clip in the Rebirth trailer could be the aftermath of this glitched scene from Remake.
My theory is that in the simulation room in Remake, Sephiroth actually showed Cloud Zack's timeline when "tornadoes swept through sector 0, 1 and 2."
I definitely think your on to something But I find it real interesting that after they show all the bodies they cut to the glitching feather right before the final fight in remake I wonder if when they went through that portal thats what cause these versions to die
I have this sudden urge to go back and rewatch Max’s FFVIIR Let’s Play.
@8:52 When Aerith is calling for Tifa to join in on the dualtech style attack, and the party is them and Cloud, you can see Barrett in the background start shooting at something. It'll be interesting to see if there is an active PHS system that allows other characters to swap in since they are present during the combat sequence.
