So I Platinumed Final Fantasy VII. Here's How I Did It.

[@alxrbrs]

I love the cut off at the end of this video. its just straight to the point then the video ends. no credit rolls, no final remarks. idk why it made me chuckle. Very well done guide mate!

[@e-heromanny4348]

The High score on the motorcycle mini game is literally the only thing stopping me from getting the Platinum trophy. It's like they want you to play a perfect game 🤬

[@supersaiyanzero386]

Mastering all materia was the only one i didnt do. Ff9 has the hardest trophies like ever. 12 hour run, 1000 jumps hippo run...not to mention the INSANE glasscanon beast superboss

He doesn't always appear but if you go in and out over and over he'll appear.

Also, I think he only appears in Discs 2 and 3

[@CharlieRacing83]

In 2001, after losing a save game on a corrupted memory card, I did for the last time a platinum run of FFVII, I master all the materias trading them on Cosmo Canyon. I have all types of materia mastered for each Character, even for non active group characters, a +500h run. Sweet memories

[@horizonkage]

There is a much easier way to date Barret with the glitch in cosmo canyon. You can easily and repeatedly raise the affection levels.

[@teenytv5194]

As someone whose currently playing Rebirth, and has played the original FF7 and FF7 remake (crisis core is on my list. I’d like to play DOC and Before Crisis but idk how) it’s crazy how FF7 Remake is the first three minutes of this video lol

[@rync1372]

I platinumed both games in 2022. So many new customizations to try out in remake alone.

[@AlexanderSouza-breko]

Damn wish i had seen this video before, will have to play again just for the barret date 😢

[@johngear1415]

I wish now they will demake the remake into the original style with improved graphics

[@Itstwistedroots]

I never thought to use a guide for a play through. I’ve always played the same way since I was a kid. 😅 Time for another play through.

[@kuponutter]

Tbh I've completed it so many times at this point that I was like, "how do people who do this faster do it?" 😂 I have to say it was a lot of fun and would highly recommend!

[@greenhowie]

I keep forgetting about the free master materias, there should be separate trophies for making then naturally - same for Chocobo breeding and enemy skill collection.

[@eddiegesch6299]

Emerald weapon was my only thing keeping me from the platinum but finally I beat him.

[@Shokisan1]

Great work!! The ending is way too easy once we learn how to do it, but my first time doing it as a kid, i lost to sephiroth 3 times before I realized that the de-barrier materia he gave you can be used to remove his shield. Anyway it is such an easy game now but I still love it, I have played it 7 times but never a full platinum like this!

[@richardlayman4223]

After a certain point in the game you can buy all materia at fort condor for the Gil grind.

[@Mr.slayful]

Damn man thanks so much for making this guide I had fun following it through and it was very informative you get my like good sir

[@Paulkotsu]

7 Remake and the OG game were the very first games I ever got platinum trophies for. Tifa pullup game was a nightmare. In this game only the Barrett date was annoying to get since it takes a second joke play-through of the game

[@DavidMcCombs-b7h]

It's amazing watching you dorks squeal around since the announcement of the remake acting like you're the arbiters and gatekeepers of the FF7 universe and franchise. You're not. It doesn't belong to you. Sorry you didn't get your shitty 1:1 remake that would have flopped, and that you are so butthurt over it that you're THIS dedicated to constantly fucking whining and complaining about it (despite the fact that you preordered and will be playing the full game). The worst part is that you pull that lame "did you play the original?" shtick like you're on such a high fucking horse and enjoying the smell of your own feet SO MUCH that you think anyone who likes the remake must have simply not played the original, or there must be something wrong with them. There isn't. It's you. YOU. ARE. THE. FUCKING. PROBLEM. Go play the original if it suits you. It literally exists. Nobody, and I mean nobody, however, gives a flying fuck about your almost 10-year long tantrum at this point. Or your insecure little attempts to pull rank. I have been playing OG since the demo releases, where there were different enemies in the reactor mission and you could have Aerith as a party member. I've also been a professional editor for 30 years, while you work at Chili's. And I think Remake is probably the most masterful piece of storytelling Square has done yet. See why it's lame to try and appeal to fake arbitrary tenure that you don't actually have? Hint: Go Away, nobody is going to stop enjoying Remake because you're whining about it the way you are. You're on the outside, now. Stop creeping people out by looking back in and moaning. @@derekgregg9009

Lol. I understand those sentiments, completely. The only feasible reason I have ever been able to come up with is, FAR TOO MUCH free time on their hands 😅

[@loganbigmo]

I used a 100% platinum guide as well, but it wasn't a speedrun one, so I recruited Yuffie at the earliest available time. I'm assuming speedrun purposes is why you recruited her after Aerith had already died. Speaking of, watching this reminds me how I wasn't a fan of being a dick to Tifa & Aerith just to get the Barret affection points for his Gold Saucer date. If that one trophy wasn't there, I would've enjoyed the game a lot more. and I already really liked it to begin with.

[@Starboundstreams]

Why do you say cait sith llike that ? :p Great video

[@loganbigmo]

Because that's the actual pronunciation. In the Japanese, they say Ket Shee. It's an actual Scottish word. In the English version of the Vincent spinoff they also say Ket Shee. Even for Rebirth, it's just the English version of the game that says "Kate Sith." The Japanese & other language dubs retain the original Ket Shee pronunciation.

Ff7 one of the easy ones

[@nugzmedallion8929]

THE DEVS CONFIRMED IT IS PRONOUNCED "KATE SYTH." I know of the Gaelic origin of the name, I've done my research, but the devs themselves said that the character Cait Sith in FF7 is pronounced as "Kate Syth" so why are we still doing this "cat she" stuff? smfh

[@lynxregions6724]

Because people love to

[@loganbigmo]

You need to do your research properly, because you clearly haven't. Cait Sith is pronounced "Ket Shee" in Gaelic/Scottish. In the Japanese version of FF7, his name is written as "Ket Shee." In the English language spinoffs, such as Dirge of Cerberus, they also say Ket Shee. Even for Rebirth, in Japanese & international versions, it is said Ket Shee. Only for the English version of Remake did Square say it would use the "Kate Sith" pronunciation, and it was specifically because they were aware American/Western fans used that pronunciation. Not because it was the correct one. To reiterate, the devs did not say that Cait Sith is pronounced as Kate Syth. If it was, it would be pronounced/written as such in the Japanese versions of the OG, or even Rebith. But it is not, it is pronounced as Ket Shee in Japanese, as well as previous English language spinoffs, and in other international languages. *_It is only for the English version of Rebirth that they are using Kate Sith_*

[@ontos8914]

American translators don’t actually get to decide how a Gaelic word is pronounced. It is ket she, even the Japanese version gets it right “kettoshee” it’s only Americans not actually doing research on other languages that caused it to be kate sith

[@HappySlapComedy]

I still prefer aeris over the retranslation

[@lordaizen8004]

I love the game and name so much, my daughter "inherited" that name 😊 Aeris Sunflower 🌻 she is so incredible, and i CANNOT wait to share these incredible games from my childhood with her 💖🥰🌻

[@eduardojavorski7628]

It isn't a retranslation though, in Japan she was always Aerith, but since Japanese doesn't have a "th" sound, her name was mistranslated into English. I know your point is that you think Aeris sounds better, but the fact they translated Sephiroth's name correctly is even weirder considering both characters' names end with a "th".

[@kevingame3198]
