Final Fantasy 7 Remake - Reno and Rude Boss Fight

[@Waltersop]

i love the how even though its a boss fight, the game never hesitates to flesh out Reno and Rude's personalities and friendship. Rude never hits Tifa like he would do to Barret and Cloud. Reno looks devastated while picking Rude's glasses. Its small details like that that made hands down the Turks the most human and likeable "vilains"

[@muhannabasalem574]

Rude doesn't hit Tifa directly yes, but if he did his AOE or you were controlling her while he hits you he'd apologize to her

I agree, the boss fight is so good, once Rude is on the ground is when the boss fight gets interesting and the difficulty is hard as Reno hits hard and is fast. Rude hits hard and is a freaking power house. The acting is so on par. The music is so sad representing Avalanche's death and how Avalanche are on the last of their legs: Barret, Cloud, and Tifa. The characters you use, you can tell they're are exhausted from fighting Shinra and is what made the fight win for me.

On TOP of him being my favorite character, they had to make my man Rude look better than everyone else. Cloud and them look good and all, but Rude looks borderline real at times... His character model looks so much better graphically than everyone else’s, and you can thank the realistic ass character design for that. I’d be convinced if you told me he was modeled after a real-life person. And another reason being that everybody out there having perfect skin ironically makes Rude, his beard, and his actual skin complexion look better than everyone else 😭

[@ginsan8198]

I would prefer him being an original model, not modelled after real life actor. That would make him unique, one of a kind. In fact, I prefer any video game characters to be original models, coz video games are not movie. In movies, we hire real life actors coz it makes sense for the performance that requires a lot of emotions. Thus, video games should have original characters coz it makes much more sense in them, and much more imaginative too. Not to mention we have the technology to do that. Wouldn't it be more fun to play a character created straight up from imagination? From something that didn't exist before? That is why, character customization in video games are fun to control, coz subconsciously we desire for something original.

Why is plate separation even a feature? Imagine if your city had a button that instantly destroyed a highway or something.

[@rexxel8867]

tbh a greedy or a really self aware corporate would add that feature it's like having a self destruct on an airship or something, so when everything goes south they can use that feature to end it before it gets worse for example, when your airship gets controlled by an enemy, instead of having the enemy to have further control over the airship you could just self destruct it so same as this plate seperation thing which i know it is actually stupid, but it actually could be true irl we dont know

[@narutardkyuubi]

Don’t forget what Mako is... That button is for refueling

[@peppercat1887]

It's all a part of the Neo Midgar plan. Dropping the plate means they also can afford to shutdown the reactor of that sector. Because of the shutdown, they can increase the Mako fuel in the other reactors. Increasing the fuel means they can increase the Taxrate of Mako. And because Avalanche and Wutai took the blame, Shinra appears as the heroes to the public that citizens will not object to paying more money for Mako. With Wutai and Avalanche taking the blame, public morale rises as they seem as the aggressors while Shinra provides protection to the public. It's all calculated from the beginning. Mind you, this is the same company that had the miner town Corel build up a reactor, promising the people better money, job opportunities and life circumstances only to murder every single citizen afterwards to silence them from any POSSIBLE knowledge they may have acquired.

[@lyonvensa]

Holy, the fight itself and the cutscene after it is VERY movie worthy. They even slipped more personality to Reno and Rude about their relations together. Though, I'm not sure I like how the game using the... mysterious ghosts to cover Rude's mad dash. I feel like it's reasonable to make the party tired enough to get knocked aside by him or something. I can see him getting away from barret by throwing him from his gun arm, jumps over Cloud, and does a short fight with Tifa, his position making it impossible for barret to take a shot. Nitpicks aside, this is probably the most lively, and dramatic fights I've seen from the game yet~

[@Zaxares]

Well... If SE's intention for the Remake is to alter the possibilities of the timeline so that... certain characters' fates are different, then I think using the Arbiters of Fate to progress the story in this matter is reasonable. It keeps the plot consistent while also providing an explanation for why things are different this time around. What's more, it also makes sense given that the player won that battle. Both Reno and Rude were beaten; without some kind of outside aid they had no chance of defeating the trio anymore. I'm one of those players who really, REALLY hates the "player wins in gameplay, loses anyway in a cutscene" approach that's becoming more common in games these days. So if the developer is to still allow the player to lose on occasion to build stakes or create drama for the purposes of the story, it has to be done via external factors that the player couldn't account for within the fight. In this scenario, assuming that the Arbiters weren't here, I'd have gone with the "confirmation was sent remotely from Shinra HQ via Tseng" approach. (Which, if you think about it, makes total sense. It would prevent some nutjob from just activating plate separation on the ground without somebody at HQ to confirm that, yes, we DO want to cause a crazy amount of damage and incur staggering financial losses.)

Feeling you win the battle but still lost. Final Fantasy 7 gg.

[@grace.stewartt4224]

Oh my god they literally killed a whole section of people

[@uria3679]

The lack of FF7 Abridged comments is disturbing

[@KingDDDuke]

I played with subtitles turned off, so I couldn't understand what tseng or aerith was saying through the monitor so I had to come here and look it up lol.

[@ruiolavo2426]

Its drives my mind crazy when people arrived at this point and still didn't understand what Focused Shot is for.

[@SilverByakuya]

Haven't played yet. What does it do exactly?

[@ShinyChamelion]

Cloud jumping in to be the human shield for Tifa is the best

[@LucidFlameX]

This fight was so messy...I used half a dozen Phoenix Downs near the end cuz Reno had a hardon for specifically targeting Cloud while Rude chased down whoever I was controlling. Fun fight, though.

[@Blue-bi3pz]

lmaooo

[@vergil1155]

So.... No ones gonna ask the question that boggles my mind. What is the zip line attached to at the end after the explosion? They were mid flight when it happened.

[@Greytruth2]

I can't help but feel that there is no redeeming Reno and Rude after this. I like them but they murdered thousands of innocents. Can't just let that slide.

[@LeeKD93]

Kind of hard to think about when you also compare the actions of AVALANCHE killing hundreds of innocent lives with the mako reactor bombings

[@ShinPepsiman]

This was was golden. I almost wanted reno and rude to win

[@robbiewilson9606]

Reno and Axel from Kingdom Hearts look they could be long lost twins.

[@omellyify]

This game too good. Can’t wait for Vincent

[@adamazmi6340]

Nah, this game makes me hate Rude more than anyone else...the moment we pushed the button, thats the moment it becomes personal...nevertheless, Rude is an excellent character in this game.

[@GuitarJester89]

Love Reno and Rude,. I want a spin off where we get Rufus, Reno, and Rude. lol.

NANI! KONO UPLOADO SPEEDO???

[@safaa9654]

Reno's amazing

[@GeorgiaAndrea]

God, I love him.

[@The-Azure-Knight]

Man I want to see more magic used in the cutscenes. I want to see how they really use them.

[@trainosaurousrex4472]

Everyone talking about Rude and Reno but I’m just thinking about that goddamn cat in a cape lmao

Один из лучших моментов в игре).

[@4567samsung]

does turks get special enhancements similar to what SOLDIERS get ? because no joke at this point of the story if only cloud was in this fight they have kicked his ass

[@judgementcl]

nah they are just trained assassins though the reason they are difficult is for gameplay reasons canonically Cloud could wipe the floor with them, though this fight isn't hard if you've played it a few times back to back

[@crofoegbu6535]

They're very highly trained and they *do* have badass materia at their disposal.

[@symbolicjohnson7]

They are skilled assassins, plus they have got materia and tech

[@autobotrenegade221]

What makes this fight much more better than the original version is that it actually feels like an all-out battle against the Turks. In the original version, it was basically: Attack, step back. Attack, step back. Rinse and repeat.

[@rdsearcy]

Reno and Rude are the Orenstein and Smough of Final Fantasy.

[@davidwhatsthatabout7404]

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!?!?

[@jackdaone6469]

Would’ve really liked a more zoomed-out perspective of Tseng and Aerith.

[@arielshade1209]

12:50 Seriously, that's just stupid. Tifa calls for help like her legs have been completely immobilized when only a few seconds later she's already up and running like nothing's happened. If I didn't know any better, I'd say she deliberately called Cloud over just to give Rude and Reno time to escape.

[@JABRIEL251]

The plot demands it.

[@arielshade1209]

@@JABRIEL251 Dumb plot contrivance, that is.

[@LabRat1210]

So Rude has issues harmning women but will drop one part of the city onto another?

[@Jaybers100]

Jeeeeeebus, I REALLY need to get around to playing this eventually. This looks so bloody good, always loved the OG Reno & Rude. If there was ever a reason to make a full spin off anime series, they would be it.

[@dancinghulahoop]

WHOA! 11:24 is the best camera angle in the entire game O_O ❤️❤️❤️

[@Voeluspa45]

Name a more iconic duo.

[@JongleurBt1]

I love how Reno aint affraid of taking head on a 1st class soldier and Avalanche all by himself

[@mauia88]

What does it mean when Tseng puts a finger to his lips at the end?
