Who is here in 2024 watching this? It's always fun to revisit just how hyped Max was for this trailer. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is coming out in a few weeks and I can't wait
The fact that the FFVIIR team used this video to motivate each other to continue when things got tough. Max the whole MVP up in this bitch! We stan a motivating legend! ♥️♥️♥️
How could u not be motivated? Almost all of them are grown adults (myself included) who genuinely felt like a kid again after seeing this. I even remember that one Asian dude who literally cried like a baby after watching this.
The fact that the development team watched this video everytime they wanted motivation to make the game is just phenomenal...... Max is literally the reason why this game is gonna be so fucking epic.
I want to believe the have a picture of Max in the office with the text "緊急にクソボタンを押す" underneath it. (roughly translated to "Push the fucking button with urgency")
@@tomkvideo I want to belive they have that "DO IT FOR HER" board with pictures of Maggy that Homer has in his office, only it says DO IT FOR HIM and its all pictures of Max.
Tidder T where have they stated that? It’s known the KH team watched the KH RU-vidrs but that’s a different team. This is BD1 and so far only stated they have watched Max’s reaction to my knowledge when I watched his stream.
Wow, Max almost made me cry tears of joy for a game i don't even care that much about. I love people who get unapologetically excited about things they love. It's something I'm still learning to do.
Lord Baktor Not a tremendous fan of this game either, but I agree, seeing the unfettered joy from Max was just...infectious. It was fun to get caught up in the moment.
Lord Baktor I felt the same for Mega Man in Smash...there are moments when someone you admire gets so happy about something you don't care much for...it somehow makes you happy that others are happy and hyped about something. Nothing wrong with it, m'lord. It's called hype/feels. Hype and feels combined...very powerful stuff. :)
Lord Baktor If you almost cried at this, you should watch Unravel's dev from EA conferece, the guy was a nervous wreck, shaking a lot and seemed ready to burst into tears, but you could feel how excited he was for being there to show his game to everyone.
EX Shikuru "Here, we see the Maximilious Doodicus, in his natural habitat of hype, performing his mating call." I can't thank you enough for this comment
@DeadMemes NeedToStayDead AHAHHAHAHAHA THATS SO SILLY. So the remake of a game from 1997 STILL ISNT OUT in march 2020 AND square enix refuses to say how many parts its gonna be. How much you wanna bet that's because they wanna wait to make sure the profit margin is whatever ungodly number before they actually REALLY start work on more of it? And you think this is gonna go smoothly?!? They are releasing PART 1 AT THE END OF THE PS4 LIFE CYCLE. Your delusional if you think they wont push back the rest til a new system and then make FF7RR for the PS5 (final fantasy 7 remake REMASTERED for the new graphics on the new system.) This is gonna be kingdom hearts all over! But damn you ff7 fans are tenacious. Game bores me to sleep, but I wish I could understand this damn near religious zealotry y'all have
@DeadMemes NeedToStayDead also... seriously you call someone a prick cuz they pointed out the OBJECTIVE TRUTH? The game had YEARS between announcements and showing anything and then finally gets dropped in 2 or 3 or 4 or who knows how many episodes?! Yea that's a long time and 8MONTHS ISNT EXTREMELY SOON. Relax on the red bull you'll live longer.
Who knew that the actual & official peeps over at Square Enix used this video as motivation to make sure the remake would do absolutely well. Shit Max, you actually made me cry when you told us about it during your stream on 6-13. You're a blessing to loads of people, even the makers of your favorite video game.
@Tidder T Yeah, it's the whole fanbase as a whole screaming for this remake. I'm sure Max's stood out but soooo many people came together as one to make this happen.
Alex Fitzpatrick the build up is the best part. Or those excited squeaks he ends up making. I made similar noises the first time I got to see Rammstein in concert. Good times.
Has it though? 5 years later and they've released part 1 or 3. If they didn't do it piece by piece it could have been 7-8 years before it was released which is an entire console cycle.
“The reunion at hand may bring joy, it may bring fear. But let us embrace whatever it brings...for they are coming back.” who else cried in this moment?
It was such a self aware statement and I'm 100% glad they made it. It acknowledges those who have cried out for the remake and those who feared a remake would ruin something precious to them, "But let us embrace whatever it brings"
6 years later, still magical. The impossible game now exists, and this man's reaction was the motivation behind it. Now the next question is how long until the next part! But we will wait as long as we need to.
@@rubemevangelista3868Now if they can remake Ocarina of Time I will truly have lived my video game dreams. With RE2 and SH2 all that’s left is FFX Remake…
I watched this with my brother. FF7 is my all-time fav game and I was one of the people that didn't want a remake. As the trailer went on I kept saying "No, I don't want this! I didn't ask for this!" and as soon as I saw Barret's gun I lost my shit jumped for joy because the 12 year old me from back then decided to jump out jump out. My brother watched me completely 180 in a split second.... Then Shenmue 3 Kickstarter was announced.... I think I died.
Jolyne Cujoh is allergic to Fajitas Replying to my own comment. Honey bee manor! TIFA/SCARLETT SLAP BATTLE! Gold Saucer! RED XIII Dressed as a soldier! Knights of the Round! The Weapons! OH THE MEMORIES AND FEELS! Aerith's dea-.... Now I'm depressed again. I really hope the changes they make are minor.
I have a crush on u plus I love your videos a lot actually thanks for making me enjoy this site and I want be youtuber like u is thanks for help through this man I love u
They paid A LOT of respect to FF7 in the remake and made absolutely sure to get it as perfect as it could possibly be, and they hit it out of the fucking park.
Okay, I am going to admit it... I've never played Final Fantasy 7. I want to, but I simply never got around to it so the game holds none of the special meaning for me as it does others. ...but I rewatch this reaction maybe once a month because it makes me just smile to see someone so HAPPY. The pure joy Max has... it is wonderful
Final Fantasy 7 was so incredible. It's very, very old now, but if you can appreciate old games you can still find and play it because it is still very playable. That's actually what I did. I never had a PSOne.. I had always been a big Nintendo fan and didn't find Sony until PS2. But PS2 was backwards compatible and I always was so intrigued by this FF7 game - a game that was originally supposed to be a Nintendo game. So one day I bought a copy online and played it on my PS2. The graphics were already outdated even at that time, but I didn't care, I played it and I started to understand. It was incredible.. the story.. the characters.. the battle system.. the depth of gameplay.. the challenge.. I may not have experienced the game during it's prime, but I still had my moment and my memories with the game and it's something I wouldn't trade in the world for anything. I'm so glad I decided to track it down and play it. I'm not sure how it would hold up to a first time player now in 2017.. I will warn you, by now the graphics are ROUGH, you would have to be the type of person that has a very, very open mind, who enjoys massively single player experiences and willing to play something that is now very dated, but I'm sure even today, this game has something special in store for anybody willing to try it with an open mind.. or just wait for the remake. It really was an amazing, incredible ride.
Watching this after Max shared his E3 2019 Story with the developers... I'm tearing up like crazy and so happy that this video is what keeps the developers going. LETS GOOOOO MAX!
I am curious, why do you have to tell us that you came here to watch the video? I see a lot of young people make comments about why they are watching, but none commenting on the actual content.. It's quite weird.
And what a journey it was. I gotta say remake 7 was a triumphant experience start to finish. One of the best ive ever played. Filled with love and passion throughout. You genuinely can feel the love here in this game its truly heart warming.
I love to rewatch this from time to time, as an introvert I am not able to express the feelings like Maximilian but man he shows what I am feeling inside! Stay awesome Maximilian!
@@MastxrWayneThat is from the middle of the Main Theme of FF7, also referred to as Clouds theme. That note isn't how the song starts, but if you listen to the whole song, you'll reach that point in the song. It's also the same music that plays on the world map of FF7 before Meteor shows up.
@ucarouen umm I'm sorry I'm not finding this exact same sound. Is their anyway that you can send me a link that has the same note from Max's reaction video please? I know you said the it start off with that note but I still couldn't find it
I love coming back to this video occasionally, because it completely mirrors my reaction to the Remake trailer. Other than that I started bawling and shaking, not believing what I've just seen. To think that the FFVII Remake project is in fact very fuckin' real still is just such a huge joy to me. I really, really love FFVII so damn much 🥹🥹🥹
You all might be excited for the Cloud cross dressing in HD, but I can't wait to relive one of my favorite moments in the game. Palmer getting hit by a fucking Shinra truck in HD.
Haha Palmer....that little wobbly fat man....didn't he make squeaky noises when he moved too? Man, some things that won't be able to go into the remake will be a bit disappointing.
Just realized Benny was there for this! When they both tell Benny to get hyped, and he's looking around like "huh, wuh?" So cute... Gonna miss you, little dood
"They pressed the Emergency button!" Max's comment is truer than he knows. Microsoft came out with haymaker first-party games and Sony had nothing last year. They needed FF7 and Last Guardian and sprung em at the right time. lol
Had to come back to this after watching Max's E32019 story. For anyone with any doubts about this game, the FFVIIR dev team literally use this very video as motivation to keep them going and remember what they want their fans to feel when they play it. This game is gonna be really fucking good.
I still watch this every time before I fire up the Remake just to remind myself of how far we've come and how lucky I am to even still be alive to play it. Can't wait for the rest of the game!
This popped back up in my feed after watching Max's videos from the State of Play 2024 reveal for FFVII Rebirth. This has been such a wild and crazy journey with the Remake project, and still more to come!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Apparently , I thought the world was just having one pleasant seizure all at the same time and the lack of oxygen was making everyone see things that couldn't actually exist. But here we are.
I love watching this reaction.. I love how something as simple as a revision of an amazing story can create such happiness in someone. The amount of joy in these 3 minutes is why I love video games
I cant wait to see the Golden Saucer remade. I also can't wait to spend hours on those mini games. lol Oh, and I want to see remade Knights of the Round ASAP.
I gotta say, I've never played a final fantasy game, and the fact that fans finally get this game is cool, my question is....... WHEN THE FUCK DOES LEGEND OF DRAGOON GET IT'S HD REMASTER OR AT LEAST A FUCKIN SEQUEL, SONY PLEASE MAKE A LEGEND OF DRAGOON FOR THE FANS THAT HAVE BEEN WANTING THIS!!!!!!!!
bigace89s As sick as that would be I think at this point they'd have to do a reboot, or totally remake it for current gen to really give it due justice for Legend of Dragoon.
MrRiffRaph honestly I feel like LoD Deserves a remake more than FFVII, due to the fact less people know about it, but since everyone is all, THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER, I'm probably going to get suckered into trying this game
bigace89s Legend of Dragoon is honestly the greatest PS1 RPG, it was overshadowed by FF8 because of how popular Final Fantasy was at the time, but as a game, it has every FF game on the PS1 beat, IMHO. I would love to see a remake of the game or a sequel. Please Sony, do it!!
Man this video did not age well. I feel bad for Max. ;-; ....Wait a minute.... 1:54 Director- Tetsuya Nomura Simmons: "Oh not Nomura. It'll never come out." Never mind this video aged perfectly.
Same here I remember being in tears when remake got announced in 2015 the best moment ever in my life I couldn’t believe it was real u can say it’s not a remake because it’s not going by the original story imo it’s just fine and the 3 parts for a remake makes sense
I gotta say, you editing in that theme song made the trailer WAY better... pretty much chilling. Your pure, unadulterated joy helped too. C: Still hype for this
Nathan Taylor It's nowhere near as good as all the drones would have you believe. In most cases It was there first jrpg so they put it on a ridiculous high pedestal.
Nathan Taylor FFVII was the first RPG for a LOT of people, and that makes it special for them. It's a great game, but in a different situation it wouldn't receive the same love(something that happens with every other Final Fantasy, and stays in VII's shadow).
This was the reaction that finally convinced me to give FF7 a go. The sheer freakout Max and others were having over the idea of a remake for this game was nuts. Definitely a fun game to play despite its age.
LordBahamut I don't know. Unless they show more for this on their conference today, like gameplay or something, I'd be left to believe that this could have been done after a backlash from december. Why do I not trust them? That wasn't the first time they played with people's hearts when it came to FFVII. The first time I remember was the steam re-release of it with microtransactions a whole year and a half before that reveal
LordBahamut No. They went back to make a trailer that probably took 6 months to make. The development cycle will be extensively long. However, I'm glad they are remaking it, especially if it adds more to the lackluster gameplay.
tornaachoozsuh yea they did tease ff7 because they've been working on the remake since the ps3 tech demo. I guarantee a 2017 release date Id put money on it. That'll be the 20th year anniversary of the game.
I never thought I would ever see Max more hype than anything when this dropped... Until Capcom dropped the Tactical Nuke that was Ultimate Marvel 3 remastered and Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite.
Alex Night bruh... EVERY TIME. Only sad thing is World of Final Fantasy got shafted from the attention. Wouldn't say it deserves FF7RE's amount of hype by any means, but after getting it it's actually turning out to be a pretty good game. Also, play FF7RE FIRST on Ps4? Wonder if that hints at other possible future ports then! With Cloud in Sm4sh, a Switch port definitely seems likely!
The constant spattering of him being all not too impressed even though he's beyond excited and then the announcement of the re-release of Ultimate Marvel 3. Yeah... Pretty sure he was more hyped about Marvel vs Capcom than here with FFVII although it was close.
Eh, they started on it in 2016, restarted with a new engine in 2017. Only took them 3 years, considering how big the game is they finished it really fucking fast actually
Watching this video again after Max's stream made me realize he had to wait nearly 5 YEARS for this game to come out, and judging from the stream he just did, the wait was well worth it. Shine on Max!
Man, I still to this day look up reaction videos for this game. I wish I could have caught my reaction on camera. I was watching e3 and my uncle was across the street at my mother's house on the phone. I jumped out of my chair and ran light speed across the street, burst through the door and said "DUDE THEY ARE DOING IT!!! OMFG!!! THE ARE REMAKING FF7!!!"
Melted Sherbert While I wait with baited breath, if it feels like 12 or 13 I'll feel really upset. Final Fantasy 7 isn't Final Fantasy 7 if it's not turn based.
Melted Sherbert XIV A Realm Reborn, Type-0 HD, these aren't "good" final fantasy games in your eyes? Shame. because they were easily in my top 10 games this last few years.
Melted Sherbert Yes, because it's been SO LONG, hasn't it? It's not like we had a trilogy of good games a few years ago, or since they localized Type-0 which has gotten a lot of praise. You'll forgive me if I keep my FF hype where it belongs. On the potentially great, new title coming out (FFXV), rather than the remake of a game I never thought was that good to begin with.
Nicaveli I'm actually curious, what is that supposed to mean? If it means that I only like newer games, you're greatly mistaken. I simply don't see why I should get so hyped for a remake that, while good, wasn't close to the god-like game some people make it out to be. Especially when there's a game with legitamate potential coming out. Before you reply, know that I would be the same if say, Shadow Hearts (one of my favorite games of all time) was getting a remake. The game was great to begin with and if people liked FF7 as much as they say they do, they shouldn't have begged for a remake so much. You're basically admitting the game wasn't good enough to begin with and needs to be made better. Improving the graphics isn't going to change the game, it's the same story with the same characters and the same gameplay. Get your remake, I'll look forward to XV putting it to shame
Yeah I’m 20 and was 11 when the remake came out my god I was in tears 😭 this is greatest remake trilogy ever imo ppl can argue it’s not going by the original story but imo it’s completely fine
Wave Razor First on PS4 it says, the nostalgia boner is gonna be so real on many people they'll probably sell their livers to get their hands on it early.
Wave Razor it will come first on ps4 Which means its like the ps2 days of "it only matters on ps2." "but its on xbox" "It was remembered for its ps2 ver. The other version are irrelevent (silent hill 2, etc)" By the time it comes to xbox the conversations will have died down and the opinions will not change
