I’m still impressed that in both Remake and Rebirth, they stayed faithful to 99% of the enemy designs, even the goofy, ridiculous ones and nearly all of them are here. If this doesn’t prove the developers are as passionate about OG FFVII as we are, then I don’t know what does.
@@Killahurtz260for some reason this morning it hit me that these two didn’t show up in the game and then I see this video, and then I see this comment lol
@@montyl.8232I am curious as to why those two didn’t show up, especially the blade dude who shows up in the mansion. Though the bikini girl I’m pretty sure does show up in later parts as well
now consider the OG game had alot more..this is just the ones in Rebirth..but theres the enemies in Remake..and the ones coming in the 3rd game....we use to get 3 games with of content in 1 game..no wonder it was on 3 disks..with great pacing too.
Even monsters which could've been easily a color swap, they still took great care to give some differentiation. Thanks to this video I just noticed that Heatseeker and Poison Cap's... well, cap, is actually distinct.
Yessss! So happy this video is out! Love watching it with my kid nephews and letting them wow at how much graphics have improved over the years. The current artists did such a great job translating OG artists' creativity with brand new coat of paint. Thanks for the video! Really awesome work here. Keep it up!
It’s gonna be hard to beat for all 3 categories, but seems like stellar blade could give it a run. You never know. Remake should’ve won GoY in 2020 over Last2 imo.
@@4o4FoundingTitan remake certainly deserved to win in 2020, now with rebirth It would be incredible to win all three categories, I'm really rooting for it.
They cheaped out though. Added WAY to many mandatory minigames that outstayed their welcome more often than not. Felt like annoying mood breakers every time, amd they were obvious time sinks to draw out an embarrassingly short main quest line. And they completely botched Ancient City and Aerith’s death - the one part that had to be absolute perfection. I will never forgive them for that.
26:22 Im was so hyped to finally see Bizarro Sephiroth in modern fidelity and a game earlier than i expected to! Makes me wonder if Bizarro will be replaced with a different form since they already covered it in this game?
You're right it isn't this is Don't worry it's not the Heavy Tank, it's this Dual Horn: static.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/3/30/Dual_Horn_FF7.png/revision/latest?cb=20120704195348
@@r3gret2079 No the Tankceratops isn't in rebirth the creature on the right is this static.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/3/30/Dual_Horn_FF7.png/revision/latest?cb=20120704195348
I remember back when the original was out, I would look at the art in the case and the manual and think "Wow, one day games will look that good" and now games look many many times better than even that.
I'll never forgive them for what they did to Tankceratops... Edit: did I miss Test 0 or did YOU??? That is, sad. But he is locked to the battle sim so, a ton of people will surely miss it.
@@bearwithsunglassesandicecr5856 I think they should have killed off abzu after remake, and had Corneo ride the heavy tank into the arena fight instead. He's all about keeping fucked up monsters as pets, remember hell house?
Absolutely Phenomenal job on the enemy designs. This is one way these games are true remakes..They kept the essence of the OG games enemies. But expanded and added to the enemies in meaningful ways without losing what the enemies were.. the designers and animators did a brilliant job
Kinda sad that i played through the entire game & feel like this is the first time actually being able to see any of these models. With all the camera movement, menus and particle effects I almost never knew what was going on in battles :(
One of my first final fantasy games ever and I’m mad I’ve never played this when I was young it’s such an awesome game and definitely game of the year!!!!
Let me remove your disappointment with the truth: static.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/3/30/Dual_Horn_FF7.png/revision/latest?cb=20120704195348
I use to gripe about the change in art direction because I liked crisis core/Advent children look so much. But the new designs look great with the rest of the world design
WOW super cool must admit I am loving this game as being a person that has played the original all those years ago as well its how a remake suhould be made, cool share
I cannot tell you how astounded I was when I saw "Matryoshka Doll With Googly Eyes" actually made it to Rebirth. And they gave it a logical visual update!
The Grangalan is honestly really impressive; they were fighting an uphill battle to not make that thing look utterly ridiculous and they really did well on it
They didn't have all the enemies in Rebirth so I hope they have some iteration of them in the next game like Jemnezmy, the swinging axe guy in Manor (Ghiralgo?) and the Mirage (mirrors)
did anyone talk about the fact that the final boss in the original (minus one-wings angel form) is the final boss in Rebirth, being the 2nd part of the trilogy? Sephiroth isn't even "awake" yet and still "dormant" in the Northern Cave... did Sephiroth brought Bizarro Sephy / Sephy Reborn from an alternate but future world?
Heavy tank (triceratops tank) was the worst recreation. I was hoping to see it in full. A messed up Hojo experiment. Also super disappointed about them not including naked chandelier guy
Ghirofelgo at least seemed tricky to make work on a logistics level, since he just swings from one rope in the original. (Unless they went with something like sledgeworm and added ropes through the whole battle area, I guess?) This, though... This is a downgrade. They could have at LEAST turned it into a shinra robot that's built to LOOK like a triceratops or something, instead of a rhino-pig with horns. (It's not even a bad enemy monster idea! It's just not a weird ass tank dinosaur.)
@@harnessedcomic4381it sounds like the wutai battle theme, I’m pretty sure it was also in remake for the yuffie dlc in some parts. I can’t seem to find it on RU-vid though.
