If you were wondering what I've been working on between other Videos and Live Streams since July last year, now you know. I was never expecting this to be over 2 and a half hours, but here we are. Thank you very much for watching this movie length video, especially if you made it to the twist ending 😁

[@BogartsBlues]

I'm waiting with baited breath for a ff6 challenge run (maybe desperation attacks only?)

[@gavtro2]

Though it has no relevance to this challenge and I'm assuming you either didn't know or didn't explain it properly but just in case you don't have to learn the second attack for any limit level to gain the next level, you only need to get kills. As I said it has no bearing in this challenge but it might be interesting to know.

[@NGPlusVideos]

Yeah, I did know that. I've been watching 4-8 Productions for years now. It's an interesting fact though

[@QuintessentialWalrus]

Great video, I can't believe you consistently used the wrong names for the characters through all 2.5 hours. I definitely would've had a few accidental "Cloud" slip-ups myself lol

[@arumea5418]

[@SamsarasArt]

It also says "i will never be a memory" right as Sephiroth was defeated.

[@SamsarasArt]

​@@arumea5418the Sephiroth you're pursuing throughout the game isn't actually Sephiroth, it's Jenova. Every time you have an encounter with Sephiroth it always led to a boss fight with Jenova. The only times you actually see Sephiroth are during the flashback, in the second disc when you see him encased in materia (this is when Cloud gives him the black materia), and the final boss fight at the end.

[@GobaGNon]

The HP counters were such incredible additions, thank you very much for whoever went through the effort to edit those in.

[@NGPlusVideos]

Thank you, that would be me. I did wonder if I would regret starting those HP counters 😅

[@NGPlusVideos]

Well the next FF game on the horizon for me is FFX. I will look into adding them, but we'll see. Unless I just use Sensor of course (assuming my chosen challenge run allows Sensor).

[@Evan20000]

I'd argue Vincent's transformation limit should count as legal under the same reasoning Party-Sephiroth isn't a rulebreak; you're not controlling them. Very fun run to watch either way.

[@DarkFrozenDepths]

I would say it's allowed too. But it also makes things harder if his limit can potentially heal something... or hit it at the wrong time like the Materia Keeper fight...

[@Catman_CM]

Also, the reason that tipped the scales regardless: Fury making Vincent's damage output inconsistent.

[@alexwallace3353]

@@Evan20000 I'd say no as with Sephiroth there really is no choice. It's not like you choose to put him in auto battle. With Vincenzo it's your choice to activate his limit which actually makes sense to disqualify him in the run.

[@patrickmcathey7081]

It's like red13 howling moon.

[@RuneKatashima]

@@Catman_CM Like I said in another comment. Just don't give him Fury. He's only going to Limit once anyway. And just don't use him for fights he'll fudge up. Not like he wasn't swapping party members around anyway.

[@danielthemangrande]

I saw you trying killing that first boss for days, months ago and I was like this won't be possible. What a pleasant surprise, let's see NG+ cook.

[@callmeshaggy5166]

I mean, it still isn't possible. He had to allow potions in battle to get past it, but I don't care that much. I agree it was probably going to be the biggest obstacle til he got to a place with an inn and a shop.

[@matthewlandoll7812]

On the Lost Number battle, it never transformed because the transformation cannot happen if it is paralyzed by the hit. It would then counter by transforming on the next hit after, but since you only damaged with Cross-Slash, it was never unparalyzed right after receiving damage.

[@NGPlusVideos]

Thank you, so I accidentally used the perfect strategy 😅

Aw yeah, I've been main-lining FF7 Rebirth for the past few days, this is the perfect time to watch FF7 content

[@TheScottdavis86]

This has to be the most unique and entertaining FF7 playthrough challenge I've seen. Amazing that this game just keeps on giving after all these years!

[@scragar]

Encounter rate is difficult to explain, but the short version is there's a hidden value the game tracks that goes up as you perform actions and is reset when you get an encounter. The goes up every 8 steps by a set value regardless of if you're walking or running. BUT when the game checks if an encounter should happen it multiplies the danger by 4 if run is held down. This means that walking gives lower encounter rates, but there's literally no reason not to run for the first second or two after each encounter and cut scene(which also resets the counter with a few exceptions).

[@ThePrestoGuitar]

I absolutely love the HP overlay on each of the major boss fights, by the way. Makes the footage actually very engaging to watch- I love thoroughly narrated challenge runs, a LOT, and that's partially for the fact that if you're familiar with the game you can kinda just listen to them and still get the full experience, but the footage being additionally fun to watch is a nice bonus!

Engrossing. Loved every second of it. Heck, I was on the edge of my seat during the Ruby fight. This might be my favorite of your videos. Congrats on this insanity.

[@velvetbutterfly]

I would consider Vincent's limits fair game since the action names use the Limit Break banner, not the normal attack banner. And on that note I consider Steal also fair to use since not only does it not do damage, but you don't use items in battle anyway, meaning it has no real impact outside of saving time outside of battle

@@1lomi901 it very much set the tone for the run when the solution after hours of attempts was that Clouds randomly generated stats weren't high enough!

[@zachofragnarok3067]

Pure excellence as always, I liked this one especially because it felt a lot more like genuinely pure mastery of the game, rather than "we need to walk exactly between 3000 and 3082 steps, but only if the system clock indicates July, and it's a leap year", which admittedly is also funny but this genuinely felt like something theoretically a casual person could do, admittedly with a lot of patience. Great work!

[@Killisandra]

Absolutely fantastic video I can't imagine how much time this took. It would have been an amazing anyway but you took the extra step and went for the super bosses anyway. The devotion to the challenge is beyond impressive.

[@Antifrost]

I don't have as much experience with FF7 as I do 8, so I can't make a prediction for which limits would be useful this time as I did with the no junctioning challenge. That being said, this was still absolutely worth watching, it was a marathon of a challenge that involved a lot of inventive strategies and unconventional thinking. It's also amusing to see bosses that play roughly the same or almost easier with these restrictions than how they'd be encountered normally. The fight against Ruby Weapon at the end is the type of nonsense I love seeing in challenge runs.

[@DOS_1990]

I think this is one of the best long form videos I've watched on here in years, incredible work mate! The little additions like updating the boss HP with every hit must have taken ages and showcasing the glitch at the end, everything's so well considered and planned out. Liked and commenting to help the algorithm do it's thing as this deserves to blow up!

I love watching challenge run videos for games, but for some reason I can't usually get into them for JRPGs. This video, however, was one of the best I've ever seen for any game! I loved the editing with the HP values and explanations of glitches like W-Item throughout the run, which kept things interesting and engaging. Maybe it helps that FF7 was my first and probably my favorite of the series. Great work overall.

[@Aethraen]

7:55 drops you to 3 HP from a max of 314, 8:02 you're back to 10 HP with a max of 318 Why did you need to reset that run? :( Or just including that battle almost killing you for the drama? :) Either way, well done. That's a lot of dedication to go through the intro so much to get a run going on this challenge!

Thanks for this short version and the work you put to make it ❤ sadly didn't had the time for all live streams

[@krakknish4722]

Yo. Nice vid. Great work. Seeing a shout out to 4-8 is cool to see too. Love when channels come together.

[@zakatalmosen5984]

My man, this might be the best FF7 video I've ever seen. The run itself was really cool, the editing is on point and your commentary was both informative and entertaining. Stellar work, subbed.

[@wintermute1814]

This is the best challenge run for any game I've ever seen, appreciate the huge effort you put into this.

[@VectorKnightZX]

I don't leave comments and likes too often (partially an unnecessary stigma and partially because mobile youtube breaks when doing so FOR SOME REASON), but it would be criminal to *not* do so here. The amount of work and required dedication for such is astonishing. Even the editing and scripting required for such a monster of a video is staggering.

[@0rphan0fKosm]

When ever I leave a comment on KZbin using the phone app the keyboard gets stuck to my screen, or will even shift my entire screen above where the keyboard ends. Even if I switch apps. I have to restart my phone every time

[@Kuchito08]

I listened to this while I was at work and am thoroughly impressed that your videos (I've now listed to the FF8, FF9, Spyro and MGS challenges) and you have a way with making content that is easy to digest while not watching the screen and not be obnoxious with your script writing/editing. Listening to a couple other unrelated FF7 challenges after this one that made me cringe halfway through, and I appreciate your vids a lot. You earned a sub, cheers!

[@hanniballahr94]

God watching these streams from the start was a treat. Can't believe the mad lad did it.

[@Altercation03]

Subbed just for the sheer time put into this. Great job

[@chillchinna4164]

Watching Red parachute into Midgar never stops being funny to me.

[@jarg6985]

The workaround at the end was incredible! Great video!

[@kn0wmad1c]

Fun fact: the limit system *technically* started in FF6, though it was never referred to as a limit break

[@rustyjones7908]

Yeah, I saw it happen once and assumed I dreamed it until the Internet became a thing.

[@ryanhorton9594]

Can go am entire playthrough and never see one lol

[@clockstopper3791]

Not sure Desperation Attacks can really be called limits, considering the way they work is fundamentally different. Definitely a nice touch regardless though.

[@globalistgamer6418]

They work very differently to FF7's, but rather similar to FF8's apart from the fact that you only get the limit confirmed after committing to an attack. So I do think they should count, albeit they are extremely rare to actually experience.

[@reyon2673]

​@GigaMettalix Agreed, they are not limit breaks and should not be referred to as such, or grouped with limit breaks. They are desperation attacks, like enemies have them. The precursors to limit breaks, sure, but not the same, so *technically* limits did NOT start in 6 like op says.

[@The_Iowegian]

Watched the whole thing. Was expecting you to face some tedium. However, fuuuuuuck me, that final grind for the mime materia. Hats off, sir!!

[@NanoElite666]

'Bort' is such a silly name, I love it. One of my favorite names I've seen another player with in FF14.

[@SilentNova_]

Believe it or not, watched the entire video, and enjoyed every second of it. incredibly interesting and job well done.

[@ClueFPS]

The mental fortitude required to complete this challenge is commendable, most would've given up by the time schizo rolled around

[@JamesTKirk1]

This was an amazing ride, Well Done, I consider my self a ff7 master... the times ive beat it are endless, i learned some things here, and the round about back to scorpion blew me away, Well done!!

[@JamesTKirk1]

@Rosso-km5jn ya joined youtube March 2024, lol You sign up just to troll me? lol boy do i feel special, Good to know i can still draw out the mentally feeble, while were being children, tell your mom i said hi lol

[@tpgildersleeve]

I am so ready for NGPlus the feature length film!

[@gnariusmnym1964]

Great Video! Must have been a tremendous effort to make, I enjoyed every second of it! FF7 is still one of my favorites

[@matthewschmitt4421]

I fell in love with Ff7 Over this video, but you can bet he's Clood forever now

[@hanniballahr94]

Perfect video to come out when I'm home sick from work; your timing is flawless.

[@SaintCecilia19]

for me this challenge would be actual hell genuine purgatory that i would never be able to escape

[@DemiseReturns]

This was such a good video, it's not typical for a video to interest me if it's a game I haven't played

[@Mr.Pallanza]

Ah. The lesser known protagonist of Foonal Foontasy VII - *_Clood Stroofe_*

[@TheHeroFrost]

This is by far my favorite challenge run I've seen of FF7. Both the video and the strategies were great to watch
