Ah, of course, Crisis Core, give us Sephiroth that genuinely treasures the bonds of friendship, just to be betrayed by them, and tentatively tries to build the same bond with Zack, just for Genesis to barge in and tell him that no, Seph, you aren't even an augmented human, you are a monster, and all you can do is destroy, and find out that Genesis didn't exactly lie. Way to screw up a guy's life.

[@rhagnvald]

i didnt play these remakes but the weird thing is how Genesis was right about everything, Zephiroth was a monster, Angeal and him also, he was seeking for the gift of the goddess and he obtain it.. apparently the original intentions with the character were pretty big but them they leave that arc inconclusive.. maybe is related to Gackt losing some popularity with the years to a point that is was not that cool to have a character based on his appareance.

Especially since Weiss and Nero got introduced with some updates to their designs in the FFVII: Remake DLC.

@@rhagnvaldWhat I liked was Genesis figuratively and metaphorically received the gift of the goddess.

He’s healed given the opportunity start a revolution all over again instead he basically tells them all to screw off and that he’s going to protect the planet.

There's almost no effort in him deflecting or even evading strikes from Angeal and Genesis at the same time! They're training hard, while he is barely doing anything.

​@@yejing98It's not nostalgia. The original one was simply better. Something similar happened in Dissidia NT. Gabranth wasn't voiced by his original actor and he was voiced by Basch's actor. Will he did a great job, the original one was simply better. Or perhaps we can see a closer example in Cloud. People like the new guy as well as the old actor but I've seen many people say that the best parts are when he tries to sound like the original guy in that case why not just get the original guy? Finally, Zack. That one should be self explanatory. The "nostalgia glasses" comment is becoming repetitive, new fans should simply understand that some actors are better in their jobs. And in Sephiroth's case, the original was superior.

I feel like Hoechlin does better portraying a good guy version of Sephiroth because his voice is soft and mellow. I love George’s voice work, but the problem with the voice he does is it’s extremely monotone, so he can’t be as expressive or emotive as Hoechlin.

This is why I hold out for a Genesis appearance on the team's side in one of the remake games. Genesis always sought to overcome Sephiroth, not because he's evil but simply because he's the best and Genesis wanted to be that. I could see it as a nice conclusion for Genesis's arc to concede that maybe he can do it - but not alone. Or that he'd potentially even be willing to give his life for it. I know he's technically alive in Dirge but... everything's different now, isn't it?

[@a.dykeman1980]

I’m not holding out hope, but it would be really neat if we got to see some sort of reunion of the full SOLDIER Trio. We know Genesis isn’t actually out of play, since Weiss and his squad had him stashed somewhere the whole time, and although Angeal is supposed to be 100% dead… so is Zack, and they’re messing with *that*. I don’t care if it’s on good terms or bad, but it would be pretty neat for them to have a reunion of some sort, whether it’s timeline shenanigans or Lifestream Ghosts

[@heronvannile4450]

my memory back when watch this scene....legend

[@rikustorm13]

Yooo the new voice actor did a great voice match with Sephiroth's "come and try" line

[@shaunthefriendlylesbian2950]

One of the strangest changes to this version is the lack of ambiance. Comparing it to the original, all environmental ambient sounds are lower in the mix, so it just sounds like it's being recorded in a studio rather than a simulator that transforms a room into reality. Some of the sound effects are better in the new version in my opinion, like the fireballs, but something about the old sound of the room breaking was so destructive. I'm happy that they kept the original visuals and uncompressed them though :D

[@xavierpeterson7139]

I can’t be the only one that notice they changed the buster sword back into the OG version in this CGI cutscene great job Square not trying to make an inaccuracy. Because it was the advent children/OG crisis core version in the original version

When Sephiroth's music comes on it's about to get real! Goosebumps!

Angeal, Genesis and I used to be friends, I still remember the good ol’ days of our friendship

[@Theemptythroneistaken]

You know to this day I still don't understand why sephiroth had such a drastic change in character to the point he was willing to kill people he cared for.

[@desmondlau1385]

Because he realized he is no hero and neither a true human, he is actually no different from how shinra created those monsters by infusing human with mako energy. After he found out he was created using cells from an alien, who wants to destroy the planet, Sephiroth think of the alien as his mother and wants to succeed the aliens plan and also take revenge on shinra who "made" him a monster.

[@Theemptythroneistaken]

@desmond lau I understand that to a degree, but some of the people he tried to kill were people he loved not even finding out your origins like he did really should turn him that psychotic.

[@desmondlau1385]

@@Theemptythroneistaken but he never love anyone not even his parents, I doubt he even knew who his parents are and he sure didn't kill his parents. And he thinks of Jenova, an alien as his parents, and naturally he feels himself is an alien too. That makes the humans the "alien" and monsters who experimented on him. If you are Sephiroth, what's stopping you from hating and killing the "alien/monsters"? What's more they are the ones your "mother" was trying to kill?

[@Theemptythroneistaken]

@desmond lau Angeal and genesis were people he definitely loved, and, to some extent, zack, I mean he didn't even offer zack to join him on his crusade. Someone he had more history with than cloud at the time.

[@desmondlau1385]

@@Theemptythroneistaken While Angeal and Genesis were his good friends but it doesn't seem to go as far as love or family. Then again Sephiroth is not the 'family' kind of guy. He is calm, collected and cold. I'd say he doesn't have much emotional attachment against anyone as he is the strongest man he knew throughout his life. Which means nothing stopping his from killing anyone he wants.

man i thiought they were gonna remake this. I used to rewatch the frick out of this scene. Crisis core was one of my fac games

[@user-ly2pj6mf6g]

3:20 Angeal: Stop! You’ll destroy this place! Genesis: That’s no way to talk to a Hero! Sephiorth: Proceeds to destroy anything in his way. This would be a great movie! Like Advent Children!

[@darknesswave100]

I'm shocked they haven't done a movie based on crisis core. It's worthy of it and if they did it before Rebirth comes out it would do well since Zack is involved more in the new trilogy

[@captainpep3]

@@darknesswave100 personally I think they should have made crisis core a movie and advent children a game instead of what they did, crisis core as a story works as it’s own thing where with the movie you expect audiences to have played the game beforehand to understand what’s going on

[@Pateckharu3]

The Great Sephiroth. Even after his physical body is destroyed, his WILL persists. After overpowering Jenova's will, Sephiroth gained the ability to exert his influence through her cells, able to construct avatars in his likeness, as well as other eldritch entities, enabling him a physical presence in the world of the living and attaining a sort of immortality. At the end, he becomes Bizzaro God, then he reaches the One WINGED ANGEL... beyond divine power... combining all 10 paths of sephiroths plus godhood manifestation and merging with the planet itself... This character has been well done for what he represents.

I remember saving just before the cutscene just to be able to watch it whenever, same with the ending, this game was really iconic

[@KarnageKollectibles]

I remember watching this on my PSP at the time and being in awe of how cool it was we got this fight in cgi format after playing ff7 for years without anything close to this good since ff7 was so damn old. Now we get this in 4k in Crisis Core Reunion and what a sick ass game this is. If you're a FF game and haven't played it b/c it was a 'psp game', you're missing out on one of the best.

[@unknownfigure]

Imma be honest, in my opinion Angeal's new voice actor is definitely better than the old one. Definitely has more emotion put into the character. In my opinion Angeal's old va sound bored which I don't know if that was the direction they were trying to go for Angeal for a serious tone character, but some lines in that voice back then made some scenes feel like slapstick comedy ("like you destroy this place" followed with an awkward damage grunt and the famous "World Dominiation" scene). The new Angeal voice actor feels that they have the right amount of emotion to feel Angeal's motives as a character and still keeps a serious tone without making him sound bored or a bit lifeless.

[@Mystrohan]

If there’s any moment of his past that Sephiroth should want to change, it’s the moment where he wounded Genesis.

[@sumirsookdeo9443]

Genesis wounded himself not Sephiroth.

[@Mystrohan]

@@sumirsookdeo9443 Fair enough. But it was because of Sephiroth that he was wounded.

[@youngballar00]

Why would he want to change that? I'm curious as to what ya answer could be. 🤔 I'm a genesis fan "unpopular I know" but that arrogance...🤌🏾 makes me like him even more.

[@Mystrohan]

@@youngballar00 He and Genesis were friends before that. Beyond that, the wound Genesis took in this fight was the trigger for the neverending parade of horribles that set up the original FFVII - which resulted in Sephiroth's death.

[@Omega_1998_]

This is a duel warm a fan's heart,watching this flawlessly remade is fascinating. 😎

[@drawingwithsound8022]

Personally would have preferred the original design of the buster sword. Since in crisis core the sword were newly forged as a nice present for Angeal’s accomplishments. By the time Cloud get the sword from Zack it would still have the gold decoration on the hilt. So Cloud might have sold it to get by or got rid of it to not attract any attention with its fancy looking before he made it into the FFVII.

[@mikeyman1974]
