All 50 Missable Items in FF7

Man, I've played FF7 countless times from start to completion way back in the day and haven't played it again in a very long time -- and just by watching your video I'm reminded of the magic -- not just of the story, and everything else -- but just THAT age of videogames where since they relied on pre-rendered backgrounds, they could really go crazy and diverse when it comes to the setting. I think that's what I miss most from that time of games.

[@Scotty_Bo0m]

Lol we all love FF7 but if you know the history of the game's creation you would know the entire game is being held together by scotch tape, not exactly a masterpiece when you take off the blinders.

[@CrimsonR6]

​@Scotty_JeBo0m He never called it a masterpiece though

[@zunnoab]

The problem now isn't that they can't be diverse with the setting, it's that it isn't economically feasible to do it on this scale in a modern game. The technology is there, but the time it takes is enormous.

[@bragiodinsen4604]

@@Scotty_Bo0m glitches = soul

[@AceZephyr1]

A couple things: 1. It is possible to have a unique weapon or armor equipped to Aerith and preserve it after the Demons Gate fight. Due to a map script oddity, it is possible to open the menu after the fight to unequip these during the post-temple cutscene after Sephiroth takes the black materia. If you are pressing and holding the Menu button (Triangle) when Cloud tackles Aerith, there is one frame where the menu is enabled and will be opened, allowing for Aerith's equipment to be changed and even for Great Gospel to be taught. 2. The Behemoth Horn should appear when going up the stairs in the Shinra Tower. The reason it did not was because you actually activated a glitch I call Stairs Storage in this particular playthrough. The stairs sequence is supposed to consist of nine total screens with stairs, but the game only actually has three stairs map files: one for the bottom, one for the top, and one for all of the middle screens. It just repeats the middle map seven total times, and so the game keeps a counter for how many times the middle screen has been visited, which starts at 0 when going from the bottom screen to the middle screen, and goes up by 1 each screen transition until, when it is 6, the next transition goes to the top screen instead. For some reason, this variable is saved to file, and it is not initialized when entering the bottom of the stairs. This means that, if you climb the stairs once, the middle screen counter stays at 6, and so if you were to end up at the bottom of the stairs again without going down the stairs, it's still 6, so going from the bottom to the middle screen puts you on the middle screen with the counter at 6, immediately taking you to the top screen afterwards. This probably happened because you took the stairs on your first trip up Shinra Tower back on Disc 1. As you see in that part of the video, you went up the bottom screen, went up the middle screen once, then were immediately at the top screen in much less than the normal amount of time to climb the stairs. The Behemoth Horn only spawns on the middle screen when the counter is 4, so if you have stairs storage, you effectively warp right past the screen it is on. 3. You dont need to talk to vendors before the destruction of Mideel to have access to all of the shops post-destruction, talking to them post-destruction also works. 4. The Mythril Clip is not missable in general, as it is Red's initially equipped weapon.

[@Arbron]

Also I believe the items that disappear from shops "after disc 1" is actually more specifically "after you speak to the woman who warns you not to progress without a snowboard." At this point Shinra soldiers and Elena blockade the town and you can't backtrack until you get the airship (at which point the items have changed), but if you haven't spoken to her yet, there's nothing stopping you from returning to the Tiny Bronco and doing whatever you want. Same goes for the Umbrella at the Speed Square. Are you sure about Added Cut/Alexander? I don't recall the snow fields becoming inaccessible (though Gaea's Cliff itself does).

[@KaimIICOD]

1:30 I chose to take the ether instead of keeping the battery. This is because the battery is an item that is obtained regardless, it is not a missable item, everyone gets 3 batteries in the game whether they want to or not. On the other hand, not using the third battery to get the ether means that you left something undone in the game. Having that battery in your inventory at the end of the game only shows that you left a "chest" unopened and your game is not complete.

[@Arbron]

That's my approach to "trading unique items for non-unique items." I note down in my journal that I traded the A/B/C Coupons for 100% treasure. (Same in FF8 and FF9, with the Girl Next Door item and colored stones).

[@globaltrance86]

I agree, keeping it in your inventory is a flag that you didn't pick up a treasure. If someone really does want to keep the Battery, that means they will also have to duplicate ultimate limit break items for a full inventory, which to me goes beyond the scope of a perfect file.

Outstanding job on the video! One thing to mention about the Enemy Skill Materia in general: if you have learned an Enemy Skill on one Materia and still need to learn said Enemy Skill on other Materia, it is important to NOT have that Enemy Skill Materia equipped when learning that skill on the other Materia. Other characters can have that Enemy Skill Materia equipped; just not the character that has those Materia equipped that are attempting to learn the enemy skill. Otherwise, the skill will never be learned on the other Materia. Keep up the great work! Cheers!

There's also a miss-able ribbon in the crater mountain in the first room before you fight the two-headed dragon. It is on the second story, to the very right of the first ice ledge you walk over in that room. It's misleading because the wall to the right that represents the cave wall is totally black, but if you continue right, Cloud will pass through a hidden passage and inside is a box with a ribbon, making it the second, box-obtained ribbon that appears very shortly after you've progressed passed the first ribbon box from the Temple of Ancients in Disc 1.

While true, the Ribbon itself doesn't really count as missable, as you can farm an infinite number by Morphing Master Tonberries.

the music here is great. what track is this?

[@globaltrance86]

Word of advice for players considering a "perfect save file." Keeping the Battery means you missed a treasure. It's the same for not using Coupons A, B, and C in the Shinra Building. Also, if you really want a full inventory you will have to use glitches to duplicate Ultimate Limit Break items, which may be going too far for some people. Ultimately it depends on whether you want to collect all treasure or have every spot filled in the inventory.

[@MrDarkknight2011]

I remember playing this game back in the late 90s for the first time.. I couldn't beat it, no matter how hard I tried and how indepth I was with tutorials to find everything and beat the final two weapons in the game, Ruby and Emerald. I ended up getting so mad.. I broke all three Discs and never played the game for the longest while.. lol. Then, fast forward to like 2015 or 2016 and I bought the greatest hits version and eventually, beat it properly. Getting all the materia/mastered versions, beat the last two weapons, and got all the Emeny Skills maxed out.

[@scorpionwins6378]

I used to get gamer rage as a teen. I'd scream at the TV, throw the controller on the floor, but it was never enough to make me want to destroy the game discs. That's ridiculous taking your anger over a videogame that far.

[@MrDarkknight2011]

@scorpionwins6378 Yeah, not my greatest moments as a teenager growing up. Things I look back on and realize how certain things just flipped a switch inside me, and I lost it. But I've calmed down a lot since then.

[@BrockMcGuill]

Ah yes, good ol Squaresoft. Making you spam X in every corner of every room in case you might have missed that super secret useless item

[@matthewcrockett604]

What a boss! I've been wanting to complete FF7, and this is what I needed. I would love to see what some of these items are. I can't recall them all, lol.

[@zuloph]

Actually a good video. I'm pretty well versed in FF7 and was surprised how accurate it was. One other honorable mention that you didn't list though that I'd like to mention is the second Phoenix materia. It is actually possible to get 2 of them that have 0AP by waiting to pick up the one on top of Fort Condor, then you go to Bone Village to dig it up, then you can go back to Fort Condor to pick up the original Phoenix and have 2 with 0AP rather than just 1

[@NP-Channel]

at 8:06 , you can keep go right, there's a secret path throught the ice wall to get the Ribbon.

[@onlinecitizen3266]

I appreciate your efforts. Honestly I'm more in the camp of 'simplify your inventory as much as possible'; meaning I sell everything that is no longer my current best option. This did come back to bite me in FF9 for synthesis, but I'm usually fine operating this way.

[@taemeister9302]

I finally played this game again for the first time on my phone after 20 years. Feels like i'm playing for the first time. Losing memory has it's benefits.

I remember once doing a playthrough and I got Aeris's Final limit, it was kind of fun to have grand guard, and when i got the princess guard I equipped it. Otherwise I don't like using her it just takes levels from someone you get to keep.

[@calanon534]

Which was my bitch about Aerith in the beginning. I was the same way, I'd have any other party but her. My preferred final party is Cloud, Cid, and Tifa.

[@dirtyfrench2926]

@@calanon534 I hate having to successfully pull off every part of Tifa's limit breaks without any failure in order to advance her limit breaks. One fail breaks the chain and it's back to square one... so annoying. I'm with you on Cid though.

@@calanon534 It was pretty satisfying to give her a chance, i remember her magic power being really good, which was kind of cool as I kept her leveled up with my other 2 mains...kind of sad to see her go though, i did get a few grand gaurds off and some hits in with the princess guard, what else can u ask for right

What a beautiful game. So elegant, so timeless. Even with the decor in buildings and style somehow!!!

[@markleslie8493]

The Yuffie side quest can be done as soon as you get the tiny bronco on disc 1

[@Arbron]

In fact the game implies you're supposed to, since it places you right next to the beach. (Also doing it too late makes it too easy.)

[@JCmeister9]

@@Arbron Yuffie actually hints about going west if you have her in your party before the tiny bronco is first obtained after defeating Palmer. But it's probably better to do it after Temple of the Ancients because that's where you obtain a lot of the no slot weapons for your party members.

Hey man, just wanted to say I'm a huge FF7 enthusiast and have completed this run. I appreciated your delivery of content, the background music, clip editing. It's a good video dude, thanks and well done.

[@echeese63]

You can miss nail bat in temple of the ancients, since you need the clock hand to knock you off

[@davidwong4821]

They really knew how to put lots of secrets and Easter eggs in this game. And shops in final fantasy games like ff7 are cool for buying nice things.

[@ritachikorita6916]

I believe you forgot about Aerith’s Fairy Tale weapon. I don’t recall it being purchasable and the fight you can get it from is only available prior to your second visit to the Gold Saucer. A more amusing missable is the first Chocobo Lure Materia which is only purchasable prior to getting the Highwind (or is it during disc 1, I thought shop inventories changed after getting the Highwind but you said Disc 2)

[@bearlotk7608]

Fairy Tale can be purchased in Junon after the player gets the Highwind.

[@FingerinUrDaughter]

id say its more likel;y that the random shitty old guide he used to parot this shit info just didnt mention it. like half the shit he says is outright wrong, and a good number of these items are far from missable, or are only missable in the sense that 1 specific copy of the item is missable.

[@bearlotk7608]

@@ryan2casey764 whoa spoilers

[@petermasih854]

you missed a few. 1. there is a monster in the train graveyard area called Eligor you can steal a striking staff from it. strongest weapon for Aries at that point of the game. 2. there is a monster called soldier 3rd in the shinra building you can steal a weapon from it called Hardedge strongest weapon for Cloud at this point of this game. 3. there is a monster called Moth Slasher in the shinra building you can steal a piece of armour called Carbon Bangle. 4. there is a monster called custom sweeper just outside Midgar you can steal a weapon from it called Atomic Scissors strongest weapon for Barret at this point of the game.

[@tonygalassi7701]

There's a ribbon that's in an off screen cave in the gaia cliffs. I'm surprised you didn't include that since there are a limited number of those you can get

[@laneface]

You can get unlimited ribbons by morphing tonberries

[@Rv3Ariez]

You can morph unknown 1's to get ribbons as well

[@Judah_Katzenberger]

@@laneface But he's talking about that particular ribbon item. It's like leaving behind a chest with an item in it.

[@Patrick_The_Pure]

@@Judah_Katzenberger At that point like half the chests in the game are missable, even chests with potions. It's about missable items, with limited amounts of them which can be missed. Ribbons aren't missable, you can still get as many as you want at the end of the game.

[@Judah_Katzenberger]

@@Patrick_The_Pure Specific ribbons are missable, but ribbons in general are not.

[@Ultinarok47]

The Behemoth Horn thing is a fun oddity I noticed recently as well. When climbing up during disc 2, the game skips most of the stairs due to some sort of routing bug, and you end up exiting on floor 23. The game even acknowledges you're on floor 23 when you check the elevator. When you re-enter, all the stairs reappear and you end up descending the full 60 floors like normal. Since the set of stairs with Behemoth Horn gets skipped by the bug, it doesn't show up, but will during the descent since they load correctly again. Weirdest bug ever, found it myself when playing a few years ago.

[@sorrowinthewind4258]

Aren't the key items related to cloud crossdressing missable too?

Had no idea Missing Score was a missable item! I was lucky to have Barrett in my party at that time during my blind playthrough

Okay, I could be wrong here but I seem to vividly remember doing Yuffie's Wutai Quest on Disk 3. Either way, great video, thanks so much.

Just before getting the javelin for cid 08:01 you ran past a Ribbon in the lower right corner of the screen. You keep running right through the wall to access it.

[@laneface]

This gets mentioned a lot. You can get unlimited ribbons by morphing Tonberries. So yes I'm aware of the hidden Ribbon in the Gaia Cliffs but it's not missable because you can get unlimited amounts of them

Awesome video Laneface. Been loving your final fantasy vii content. I have a video request for your next video. You should make it a video on the date mechanics in the game I've been having a hard time trying to get points for specific characters to go to the gold saucer with me such as Yuffie and Barret, Always end up with Aerith/Aeris or Tifa. I bet you could make a great walkthrough on this.

[@laneface]

I'll see what I can do. I've never messed with this a lot because I prefer choosing Tifa. But I have video of all the places you get points towards a character. EDIT* Alright I think I got everything I need. This will be my next video :)

The guide I started using about 1/3 way through has helped me with a lot of these. I always used a Game Shark for the PS1 so I had NO idea about Pandora’s Box until I acquired it last night! What a nasty programming choice. Great video, mate!

[@Jotari]

I think you're always guaranteed to at least see Pandora's Box. And if you're making use of enemy skill materia at all, chances are you'd have it on at least one character.

[@uzumakinarutosama13]

Also the Shiva materia can be missed if your materia inventory is full when Priscilla gives you the materia. Although to make that you need a shit ton of money to buy that many materia

[@Everythingistheatre]

The Vagirysk Claw is a freaking nightmare. I had a ruined save file when I was a kid because I missed that particular item. I did get everything and found basically every item by myself, but somehow I still missed it and only learned about it when I saw some sort of items list. I restarted the game all over just to get it. First got it from the Fort Condor but later leanred that you can get it from those enemies at the beaches when your level is low.

[@Lenophis]

One thing to note about Gelnika and the Reno/Rude fight. You must fight them and steal their items before you raid Shinra HQ for the second time during disc 2. They will not be in Gelnika later on in disc 3. Something I would find out the hard way once upon a time.

[@lostnumbr]

You can get four slots from the coupon exchange in the shinra hq as well

[@ScreechPU]

I seem to remember there being a weapon for Yuffie from the Fort Condor fights. Completely missable, and I want to say the window to get it was incredibly small.

[@callmeshaggy5166]

That's the Super Ball but you can purchase it from Junon after getting the airship.

[@MLFreese]

From what I remember, the item in the stairs is an ether when you obtain it at the beginning of the game. If you don't obtain that ether at the beginning when given a chance to take the stairs, it will still be an ether later in the game when raiding Midgar.
