I was stunned and in TEARS! Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (FINALE) | Sponsored by Square Enix!

The continuation of Final Fantasy VII Remake is here with the second part of the trilogy series, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. I am so excited to see familiar moments like the Nibelheim Incident, the Gold Saucer date, and everything at the Temple of the Ancients. This is sure to make fans of the OG VII happy to see one of the most iconic moments from the game being shown this way while giving new fans a taste of what to expect while events from the original are retold and twisted in Rebirth's story. I am so curious as to where Zack's story goes with the change from Crisis Core and how many references we'll see from other games in the compilation like Before Crisis, Ever Crisis, Dirge of Cerberus, and Advent Children. Hopefully the game will answer questions I've had since the start of FF7 Remake like what Aerith knows, why is Zack alive, and why Loveless seems to be everywhere in Rebirth and Remake.

[@Yorcia]

Thank you to everyone who joined me on this journey! I felt bad about not having something to say right away regarding my thoughts on what is going on, and any predictions for where the story is going next BUT I want to go over it in more detail next stream. I would like for people to be as civil as possible, especially to each other. I want to try to be as objective as possible because I know a lot of ideas can be motivated by a person's own personal biases. I think it's great that people feel so passionate about these characters and the story of VII but I've seen many comments in Shorts and other videos that will put other characters down as well as those that like those characters down. It's personal preference a lot of the time, but shipping and projection play a big part in it too. I hope you all enjoyed your time watching me get through Rebirth and thank you once again for everyone who stayed with me to the end.

[@matten_zero]

It's fine. No need. You need time to process the ending. I played it with no audience and I also needed time to think about it. No apologies needed.

[@drummerjosh2112]

Your reaction to the music of the Jenova fight was perfect. That was all of us… lol

[@Zero-fx8pc]

The rift is because the merging of worlds started the moment Aerith died but Sephiroth couldn’t go trough with it because Cloud didn’t fall into despair like he needed (this is evidenced when he is the only one without LB full during the Jenova boss), Cloud created another timeline the moment he saved Aerith but the one is his world died because he can’t change that but somehow he still sees her probably it’s related with the rift only he can see. Cloud, Zack, Sephiroth and Aerith seem to be able to travel trough timelines, if Cloud wants to truly save Aerith he has to stop Sephiroth otherwise she would merge with the death Aerith from his world which is what was happening at the end, so she’s still not truly saved.

[@DragovianCloud]

Can't be surprised by people's confusion. It's the nature of Cloud's story. He's the unreliable narrator. The 3rd game will be when things become clear.

[@matten_zero]

This. I sometimes wonder if people are intentionally trying to pretend to dislike the ending because they are purposely looking past this idea. It made sense to me on the first playthrough IDK why people don't get it.

[@jaz4742]

​@matten_zero people wouldnt be able to handle a book if things werent answered on page 2

[@itsyourboyalex4627]

Seeing Zack and Cloud fight together, best duo ever!! 🔥💯

[@Yorcia]

Best moment of the whole game for me. SO GOOD!

[@DannyPotato]

4:22:21 You have no idea how lucky you were with this stagger hahaha

[@chimmyxuw3492]

First of all English is not my first language so im sorry if I write something incorrectly. I would like to thank you, you were the first person I watched playing this game. I knew a little about it but I fell in love with this story and watched the playthrough for the remake since I cannot play it. I loved the way you played it and hopefully in 4 years (if we are still alive) I'll watch it again in your channel. Again, thank you! I really enjoyed this journey!

[@Yorcia]

English isn't my first language either so don't worry! You write wonderfully and I'm grateful that you enjoyed the playthrough so much! I'm honored to have had you watching through this journey, so thank you very much!

[@jorge10928]

I REALLY hope we don't have to wait 4 years for the final installment.

[@drb6771]

I loved you're playthrough Yorcia. I can't wait to see the next few vids.👏👏

[@Travesty9090]

The way I understand the "multiverse" as it's being presented in this story is a little different from how multiverses are usually presented. I think at the end of Remake, the Arbiter represents the planet's ability to maintain an "ordered" lifestream. When it's defeated, it allows the lifestream to be manipulated, by both Aerith and Sephiroth. But when it's manipulated, it's less like creating different timelines or complete universes, and more like fraying or unraveling a thread in the normally well-ordered "rope" of the lifestream. Each time one of those threads is frayed(for instance when Aerith deflects bullets to save Zack), it splits off into another world that is ultimately doomed to end at the end of the unraveled thread that is no longer part of the lifestream's rope.

[@darthangelus2606]

I will miss her so much 💔

[@duckducklarry]

Holy shit you were just VIBING through that last Sephiroth fight with Aerith, also focused thrust is OP huh

[@Yorcia]

The music was TOO good not to!

[@itheGuillen]

It sucks for Zack fans. It really does. But it’s been a long time and Aerith had to move on at some point. I assume the devs wanted to make it clear that Aerith was in love with Cloud now since no matter what route you go Aerith always confesses her feelings to him.

[@Strife93]

Yeah Im actually glad they made it clear. I played the original over 15 years ago and Aerith was always my girl when I played. So I prefer her and Cloud. But to be fair this is Clouds story Final Fantasy VII is Clouds point of view. Zacks game is Crisis Core and his story was wrapped up good so anything extra in the RE trilogy is cool for the Zack fans. But Cloud will always come before Zack in the main FF VII games that being FF VII and the RE Trilogy.

[@wojtekg7144]

Couldn't watch the stream but it was so good to witness your journey. Let the tears flow, there's no shame in that. Such a great story and I bet you are spaculating a lot what has happened in the ending section but trust me you'll figure this out!

[@Yorcia]

I had a lot happening all at once but I want to come back and express my thoughts. Thank you for watching!

[@ThePrince7711]

This ending is so confusing that no one knows whats up lmao Did you notice in the credits they didn't show d most important scenes at the end? like the Cloud POV. weird

[@SV-js6nw]

Aerith is on a different dimension and plane of existence, so it is like she was a ghost

[@immortalart959]

so innocent, so beautiful, so young to be taken out like this . She was the positive energy among all of them , and she wanted to discover the world she was excited to explore it .. she is the most unique and has the most knowledge and wisdom. It's so F sad .. I played FF7 on day 1 back in 1997. This is way sadder than the og, which is iconic itself and sad .. Gone too soon .. the only thing I wanted to be change from the OG is Aerith fate .... she is too cool and too innocent to not be with us anymore 😢.. she is the strongest magic user and best healer .. without her, I feel the game is empty in every aspect .... she will be forever the queen of RPG and video games .. I will miss her so much .. iam a grown man and old enough and my tears drop .. F this .. F sephiroth or jenova puppet .. hopefully, she reunited with the team in part 3 .. i'm 40 years old and never cried in my life because of a show or a game .. thats how deep this story and game is .. 💔

[@rayjcool1]

It's about time a true final fantasy 7 fan Read between the lines. The point of sephiroth and the multiverse so he absorb all the multiverse planet so he can become God..Aerith death was plan after all. Sephiroth made it Believe that cloud saved her but he already killed her in front of him. It was his mind playing tricks on him.. That's why The spirit of Aerith communicate with him to calm him down so he won't shatter.

[@neoncaelum]

The ultimania more or less confirmed that aerith did indeed die and that cloud kind of imagined a different outcome, and his ongoing delusions make him keep seeing her as if shes still alive

[@DJ-lw6vw]

Cloud: I promise Developers: No promises await at journeys end 😂

[@fiprosha]

Apparently there is no promise in the Japanese dub. So it's not the developers but the localisation team pulling kind of a big prank.

[@TSPIN]

This has been one of the best games I ever played!! And this finally OMG! It makes you question a lot of thing even while you're fighting, yet it still manage to stay fun, captivating and emotional. Fell in love with every single characters, which I didn't expect to. Excited to see how Vincent and Cid will play in Part 3 and how they'll expend on those characters. If they expand as much as they did with Barret and RED XII I'll be more than happy (They're already awesome) It has been amazing to play and watch many other streams to see people's reaction and love of FF7. Anyhow, Until part 3.

[@Yorcia]

I think the development of the characters even more than before is what I personally loved about the whole thing. I think a lot of people came around to Cait Sith and Yuffie and it seems like they are changing Cid around too. I really loved everyone's interaction with each other and seeing the dynamic everyone has with each other both with their Synergy moves and in cutscenes. It's been a fantastic ride!

[@TSPIN]

@@Yorcia Absolutely !! Especially since every side quest have you interact with at least one of your crew member. I would have understood if they did it for like 1/3 but every single one !?! They are crazy and I love it. Of course the main dynamic is represented throughout the main story, but have everyone goof around during sidequests is amazing. Even though some story parts are pretty goofy and I love them. Looking at you Shinra RED XIII

[@wk8276]

there is something off with the Aerith at the very end of the game. Telling Cloud to fight Sephiroth was the total opposite of what she told them all in her speech at the Temple. She told Cloud to focus on himself and that she would deal with Sephiroth. Very suspicious.

[@toychristopher]

Thank you for sharing your reaction!

[@Yorcia]

Thank you for watching!

[@erichaslam7952]

Slipstream Cloud (his final weapon name), Lifestream Future Aerith, and Timetraveler and Mind Invader Sephiroth Those are your answers And no Zack is between worlds as well

[@fiprosha]

I personally loved the ending and all the theorising you can do with it. But as someone who's been theorising for like 3 weeks straight now... I hate the fact that I wont know whats real until part 3.

[@Yorcia]

We're back to exactly how we were feeling at the end of Remake. Lots of questions, lots of ideas of where it's going, but no clue on how they'll execute it. Part 3 has big shoes to fill though!

[@DanielPachecomaltez]

What I understood, she used her magic to transport the cloud between these worlds on the same planet, to take the white materia, which is good, and transport it to the world where she needs to stop Sephiroth for real.

[@DanielPachecomaltez]

For me, it's kind of obvious whether alive or dead, she has this MATTER power to transport herself between worlds, and in a way, she did this with the cloud, because in a way, she did the same thing that Sephiroth is doing, traveling between these worlds with both black matter and white matter

[@DanielPachecomaltez]

she practically leaves the cue at 2:50:49 and onwards

[@JK-of3es]

Doesn’t seem to confusing to me. Sephiroth killed Aerith. The white whispers won’t allow cloud to see the truth so his mind won’t shatter. Everyone wake sees the truth but cloud. It’s the same thing he did with Zack in the past. He blocks out trauma and makes up new reality in his mind. This is why Sephiroth says he can’t see the truth though such clouded eyes. Tifa will fix him in part 3 in the lifestream. I can’t wait.

[@brucey5585]

The confused people are the one who want aerith to be alive like cloud. The people who hope to see the same event go down but didnt get it. The same way cloud hope to save aerith but didnt. Square played the players to the same feeling of cloud.

[@andresashura5550]

Okay, let me ask you a real question before criticizing her, did you come to that conclusion in your first playthrough, or you needed to rewatch the scene multiple times and see the details? Is hard to analyze everything in your first playthrough, when the game throw everything at once in less than 2 hours.

[@noilflowers]

yes! I can't wait

[@Ichigo2k9]

I think they’ve also made it clear that Aerith is also in the livestream and Cloud can see her, he can also see between realities too it seems probably from exposure.

[@JK-of3es]

@@andresashura5550 yes. I watched it many times.

[@user-ki4no3ly5]

Why they have to do us dirty like that, the aerith theme epic version hit so damn hard 😫

[@revit4909]

Sephiroth's So fucking Badass bro

[@MarzMartin-xq2zp]

Zerith obliterated in rebirth 😬. Don’t worry Zacky boy, Cissnei is waiting for you in Gongaga.

[@oratomo4454]

clouds gone crazy

[@sober9939]

The Fact that people got hurt so much when they're know about Aerith have feelings for Cloud so much instead of Zack......They just keep denied instead accept the fact that Aerith already move on on Zack... 2:26:05 at this scenes People also dont like it because they're already got Cloud kissed with Tifa and act stupid when saw this part..Man..skywheel dates just not a part of the main story but its just fans service and learning about the truth on each other characters like when you go on date with Red Xiii and he will tells you something important for the main story.

[@JMPT]

Super Nice Stream 💙🤍

[@Yorcia]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@JMPT]

:)

[@HeavyMetalMayhem]

The most confusing death scene ever.....She is dead but not dead

[@bradhorowitz2765]

So now…one of the most controversial endings…what do you make of it?

[@Yorcia]

I...will talk about it next stream. I have a lot things to say about it that I don't think a comment will do it any justice. Overall though, this game was amazing!

[@moshekaykay7297]

People really don't realize that Aerith's whole arc in this game is her confessing that she got over Zack and likes Cloud for who he is. Sure, the similarities is what dragged her in, but she ended up loving Cloud for Cloud. If you play the canon date scene with Cloud and Aerith, she says, "But right now, I just wanna be with you." Another Arc she had is coming to terms with the fact that she is going to die and she ended up dying on her own terms, saying goodbye to Cloud. "Whatever happens, don't blame yourself."

[@matten_zero]

True. When I was playing I had this thought as well. I ended up dating Aerith as well as it seems like the natural choice in this game. Although the post-Weapon scene with Cloud and Tifa had me slightly confused and wondering if we should be trying to date Tifa.

[@thebrigade7684]

I wonder if this is a genuine mistake by them to have both remake and this ending confuse the hell out of people and everything is put on their execution of part 3 which is scary because I'm not really convinced they can stick their landing. We have like 4 possible popular theories and legit all of them have a good chance to be the case it's basically not what is going on but what are the actual red herrings here nobody knows

[@user-ek6rf8ms9c]

3:44:22 왓 더 뻑 ㅋㅋ (ssibal mwoya?) What the fuck ^^ 엔딩까지 수고했어 Thank you for your hard work until the ending.

[@Yorcia]

My favorite moment of the whole game! Thank you for watching!

[@youwatch2muchtv]

I really wish people would play with all the characters so they could win fights easier. You were supposed to use the opposite element to damage sephiroths wings. Yuffie can use all 4 elements via ninjutsu. Not sure how or why you didn’t know that 😂😂

[@Eclectic.Nostalgia]

The day Cloud became Ted Bundy

[@abovewater6918]

Thank you for this playthrough This is an aside and nothing to do with you, awesome game but I'm sorry, the Aerith death scene was done poorly. It was just jumbled and poorly executed. And yes I have read about all the theories about what is going on. But the impact of her death was lessened because of the timeline stuff, and also how they tried to show it. On top of having to fight 10 boss fights right after she died. The ending was just super chaotic, too many quick cuts without letting any scenes have any breathing room I feel bad for any new players (non OG players) who have to play through this and just be totally confused. When they changed timelines during her death, they could have at least switched over to Sephiroth actually impaling Aerith, instead of awkwardly cutting to a bloody blade and her falling.

[@basilalfehaid1533]

How can they make it better and include clouds mental fragility with his unreliable POV

[@matten_zero]

Most people have played the OG and know she is supposed to die. This is a 25 year old conversation. I mean hell these characters in Smash Bros. That's why it makes sense to build on that knowledge. This game was meant for older audience and meant so that newer audience should go read up on the lore or play the OG.

[@abovewater6918]

@@matten_zero I have watched multiple streams of playthroughs of the OG game in the last few years and many of the new players have no idea she died when they got to that part. And plenty of people playing Remake and Rebirth have stated they know nothing about the game other than they have seen some of the characters before and know some of their names

[@matten_zero]

@@abovewater6918 i think the point is you should have played the OG. It's like a 40 hour game that you can play on mobile. Remake is pretty much similar function as Rebuild of Evangelion

[@abovewater6918]

@@matten_zero I totally agree with you people should have played the OG, and this is cool storytelling if you have. But many people refuse to because of the dated graphics and mechanics. On top of this, the developers have been saying to the public you can play this fresh without any other FF7 experience, which I think is misleading, considering this is a sequel basically

[@CaliforniaRaisens]

No need to be sad, Sepiroth only killed a Jenova clone.
