Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Jenova Lifeclinger Boss Fight 4K

[@perfectharbinger1398]

Jenova/Sephiroth: *Kills the primary magic user of the team* Jenova Lifeclinger: *Proceeds to erect a barrier that requires magic damage to take down* What a dick.

[@CosmicAeon]

That whole section was kind of a pain in ass in general. Take away the healer/magic-user then throw random teammates together with no possible way for the player to know who will be involved or who will need what materia. Thank god for Yufie. Kind of ironic that the girl who is obsessed with materia is the one who can fight any enemy without needing them.

[@perfectharbinger1398]

@@CosmicAeon "then throw random teammates together with no possible way for the player to know who will be involved or who will need what materia." It was even worse when you fought Ultimecia at the end of Final Fantasy VIII. Your party members were selected at random at the beginning of the fight, and if you failed to revive them in time they were taken away for good, so you were forced to make sure everyone was equipped with magic and summons. Which could be a real pain in the ass if you hadn't done a lot of grinding beforehand.

That's a spin of what they did in the original. Against Jenova Life, your team started with the sadness status. There, they were depresed Aerith was murdered. Here? They are PISSED. Obviously, we players were pissed, so it was an usual tactic to put the team back into the fury status, to unleash limit over limit on the fucker.

[@vankristlabs]

I got the impression he was referring to past fights he's been in of equal threat level. He's pulled feats before, he can do it again. In the intervening time between his fight following Zack's death and his arrival at Midgar, he's definitely done some training and plenty of fighting taking jobs as a merc. But he could indeed be referring to glimpses he's seen of the 97 timeline.

[@TikaaniSpirit]

Idk if anyone noticed about TIfa fighting style changed a bit during the cutscene (or maybe im hallucinating it.) Her style is usually focused on speed with quick bursts of power to get as many hits in as much as possible and to probably not hurt her opponents too badly. When she was hitting Jenova though, it look like she was focusing more on power then anything. To me, it felt like her punches were slower but hit harder like she built up all her power in each punch to make sure each hit hurt cause she didnt want to hold back this time

[@xXElement]

I really thought aerith was gonna survive too.

[@MrOrcshaman]

In conflicting ways she did and didn't. Her fate was to die and become one with the lifestream, she exists in an alternate timeline alive, which is what sephiroth wanted, but same time has died in the main timeline. Cloud can still see her from that alternate timeline speaking to him, since these moments bind fate and the timelines close together.

I've never played the original FF7 but i watched a video on the whole story of FF7 throughout the compilation of FF7. My first real FF experience was mostly from kingdom hearts 1 and 2. I played FF10 when i was younger but i was a dumb kid and was clueless. As i got older i started wanting to see what these games i haven't played were about since at the time all i played was FPS shooters and sports games. When i saw the trailer for FF7 Remake i knew that i would have to finally try it out. My first FF that i managed to beat was 15 and i kept watching trailers for the remake excited waiting for more FF. I finally got the chance to play it and i wasn't amazed but i did enjoy my time, the characters and the world after only seeing these characters in kingdom hearts. I'm 25 now and I've completed a handful of JRPGs and i can only say that I'm hooked. This game was my most anticipated game for the past 3 years ever since the trailer for rebirth came out. I finally beat the game yesterday and i don't think I've ever cried so much tears and sobbed experiencing any sort of media. I was crying for straight 10 mins watching what happened to Aerith even though i knew what was going to happen. it didn't change the gravity of watch i just watch happen after 70hrs of being so attached to these characters. I can safely say that i now know why FF7 is held in the regard that it has had for the past 27 years. I hope i make it to see the remake finish its trilogy. I'm so privileged that i got to play such a master piece. Thank you square enix

I get that it's a JRPG and final boss rushes are just part of the deal, but we definitely did not need an hour's worth of boss fights that didn't match the narrative tone. I'm trying to reserve judgment until Part 3 comes out and hopefully ties everything together, but man does it feel like this scene was done a disservice in a vacuum. I certainly wouldn't call it bad, but it doesn't carry near the amount of weight as the original, and it could have.

[@MANJYOMETHUNDER111]

@@Rvckus The original had the context of the ending, you're literally watching a 'to be continued' and complaining it feels incomplete.

[@Rvckus]

@@MANJYOMETHUNDER111 You realize I literally said that I'm trying to reserve judgment for Part 3, right? You also realize that the developers chose to release this without the full context of the full ending, and that any judgments made in the absence of that context (in the original, it was pretty clear in the moment what was happening, by the way) are completely reasonable because they gave us nothing else to go on, right? You can only work with what you have, not with what might be- especially as you're experiencing it. Viewing something with hindsight is entirely different than experiencing it in the moment. With that in mind, regardless of what they choose to do with contextualizing Aerith's death in the overarching narrative, it does not change the minimized impact the scene had in the moment itself. I'm not saying it had no impact, because it did once you realized what was happening, but not nearly what it could and should have had. People spent more time trying to figure out what was actually happening than anything else, and before they had time to even hope to process anything, got sent into an hour+ boss rush where the tone was all over the place and they piled on the confusion. I love this game, I think they did a great job overall. I just think they fumbled this scene's impact a bit (which is ironic because I think the idea of Cloud not fully realizing what happened by the end is an improvement), and no amount of broader context will change that.

[@MANJYOMETHUNDER111]

@@Rvckus I think the narrative is fairly clear on the topic. You're still contextualizing it using the death scene from the original game when there's no point in comparing the two. It has a different impact, which is being confused for a lesser one

[@Rvckus]

@@MANJYOMETHUNDER111 I think this is where we have a fundamental disagreement. If you played the original, you really can't help but compare the remake to the original on some level. Presumably, it's what drew you to the remake to begin with- seeing the things you loved back then recreated. And why wouldn't you compare them? Part of the allure of a remake is to see how modern capabilities can improve on the original, which the remake project largely has done. With that said, I don't disagree that the impact in this scene is different. It is, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Comparing to what the experience with the original was though, on its face, it is lesser as it is unfolding. Not bad by any means, and I'm sure it will fit far better into the broader context of the story when Part 3 comes out, but certainly lesser when tonally the scene is all over the place whereas in the original it was consistent. I don't think it's unfair criticism to point that out, especially when Rebirth goes so far as to have characters weirdly cracking jokes in the immediate aftermath. Does it ruin the game or, more specifically, the story? Absolutely not, but I also don't exactly think they did what the scene was originally supposed to be a service by shifting the tone several times over an hour of boss rush. I don't think they did what a remake is broadly supposed to do which re-capture the feel of the original and/or improve upon it.

Honestly think this should have been the final boss. Not every game needs to have Sephiroth as the final fight, it cheapens his threat as a villain if we beat him multiple times. This fight was epic enough, just the right length and would have allowed us to stay focussed on losing Aerith. By the end of the Sephiroth fight after I'd almost forgotten Aerith had died.

"By the end of the Sephiroth fight after I'd almost forgotten Aerith had died." --- Like Cloud.

[@moto3112]

Agreed, the boss rush was too long it overshadowed what should've been THE moment. Jenova was perfect as the final boss

[@kei7540]

It really doesn't

[@antoniocanale9440]

Hey! In the video the squad has Cloud, Red XIII and Cait but when I play it the team has Cloud, Tifa and Cait. Why?

[@lightningdragon1078]

I guess they tried keeping it PG 16 instead of making it an +18 Scene like in the OG.

[@jhirmane]

The music ❤❤❤

[@tomitvn]

This was almost perfect. Aerith’s theme while fighting was heartbreaking and I’ve probably ever had that much tears during a boss fight. However, it would have been even better if the samples the characters are saying would have been changed into something more desperate, sad and angry, shouting at the Jenova like ”Im gonna kill you!” or just crying. Also, the sudden transition to Jenova theme sort of changed the sad desparation feel of it too fast. It could have been more subtle.

[@gozogo1233]

if you listen to the full song, there is a phase where Jenova's theme EATS Aerith's theme slowly

[@tomitvn]

@@gozogo1233 Wow have to check that out!

[@XelhosTallyn]

This is whole fight is metal af

[@knightofanguish7399]

I kinda wished they saved this one last. Have Sephiroth be first for the gang to defy fate. And when Cloud reaches the end, the gang falls into rage when this happens. Like to them, what was the point of all the effort just for it to happen? The theme would have been more emotional and make Cloud trip out more.

[@adamazmi6340]

This boss fight is peak, Sephiroth boss fight on the other hand is bullshit

[@CACOaugus1o]

Come on, did they gave to kill her again? Whats the point

[@azazel166]

Holy can't stop Meteor as it enters the atmosphere by the time Sephiroth is defeated, so Aerith sends the lifestream itself to stop it. She can't do that if she is not dead.

Save the planet

[@justindza]

So we can play as Vincent and Cid in the next game.

[@themadgamer4571]

14:08 what in the Advent Children is going on here? So baddass one of my favorite parts of the game.

[@MBage1000]

This one hurt a lot.

[@FredThePhoenix]

NOT AGAIN, SQUARE! Aerith! I love that everyone has the Limit Breaks except Cloud because he thinks he saved her. That transition into Aerith's theme song didn't make me cry I swear 😭 I LOVE that Tifa trash talks Jenova immediately! She lost her best friend :(

[@JamesBrown-xb7yi]

Just firing limits of into an immune barrier...

[@raymelpoche9415]

I went into this fight with that theme ready to whip some ass. Esp the Zack/cloud fight

[@haridojamaru829]

This fight surprised me

[@CuriousCheetah44]

The way the emotional music continues to play during the fight... 😢

[@mrmarried8167]

Wheres Vincent?why he dont join this fight??

[@NeoakiraIV]

Cause he’d just solo Jenova
