What's up guys welcome back OJ here we've got a brand new video we're
talking about Final Fantasy 7 remake on the PlayStation 4 we've got some new
information on battle systems the classic mode the new battle system cloud
we've got new screenshots for the game and all sorts of information that you
guys are gonna be able to check out now for this video I wanted to focus on the
battle system because that's what the gameplay is all about when it comes to
Final Fantasy is the awesome battle system in the game detailing what you
guys can expect but if you want to see the full layout in terms of messages
from the producers also some of the character profiles I'll have a link in
the description for you guys because there is a huge info dump on this game
but we needed to get into what's important here and that's the battling
and the difference is that you guys can expect in this whole reimagining of
Final Fantasy 7 so we have the battle system classic mode classic mode can be
activated by selecting classic from the difficulty menu in classic mode party
members will act automatically with the ATB that is active Time battle gods
filling up as they do so in this mode the player only needs to select which
abilities magic and items they will use their ATV charges for this brings the
feel of the gameplay closer to the menu based battles from the original Final
Fantasy 7 but with the amazing immersive graphics of the remake it is also
possible to revert to direct control at any time during classic mode by pushing
buttons on the controller so whether you want to play as more of an action RPG
with the new-school spell or you want to go back to how it was before a little
bit like it back in 1997 the Final Fantasy 7 remake does have you covered
now let's go ahead and move into more on the battle system but with cloud so
cloud can attack with this sword at close range
with the square button and build up combos by repeatedly pressing Square by
holding square cloud can unleash a radial attack now cloud also has unique
abilities in addition to any of the other characters in the game
so the triangle button activates each character's unique ability clouds unique
ability is to switch between different fighting styles he can switch between
operator mode which has a good balance between attack and defense and Punisher
mode which is geared heavily towards offense and Punisher mode clouds
movement speed is reduced but his basic square button attacks are upgraded to
even mightier blows the operator mode attack Punisher mode strong as you can
see there is a clear visual difference there
nice radial swing store you can have some crowd control in there I like how
they're varying things up within the new battle system but also bringing that
classic touch to what you'd expect with something this scaled with Final Fantasy
7 now we also have abilities to the triple slash cloud slashes surrounding
enemies with three consecutive strikes its power increases by hitting multiple
enemies you have the blade burst a long-range attack in which cloud fires a
magical burst from his blade many of you guys have seen that from something like
Super Smash Brothers ultimate in recent days you also have the weapon
enhancement in this game this is getting a little bit more into the depth that
you can expect to find in this remake of Final Fantasy 7 by unlocking abilities
of the core material and weapons they can be upgraded to increase their power
the upgrade screen for clouds Buster Sword the different options allow you to
improve the wielders status or increase the number of materia slots available
now materia that is the magic kind of crystals or cores that they use in order
to unleash more devastating attacks and add buffs and stuff to your weapons so
really good stuff there now we have weapon abilities each weapon has its own
unique abilities that increase in proficiency the more they are used when
an abilities proficiency level reaches the maximum that ability is then learned
by the wielder and can be used when wielding any weapon so I do like how it
kind of transfers over there from ability to ability really kind of
putting that to where all of your work and one weapon isn't 100% gone to waste
now let's talk a little bit more about the materia which I alluded to now in
fire materia material that allows use fire attribute magic such as fire it
evolves from fire to theater actually theater guy you can see the resistances
and weaknesses making it easier to defeat them in battle now you also have
summons in the game which has always been a staple of the Final Fantasy
franchise while equipping summon materia you'll be able to summon a powerful ally
once the special summoned gods fills up summons will fight alongside you
automatically on the battlefield but you can also use your own ATV charges to
have them perform special abilities just before they leave the fight your ally
will unleash a powerful special move so you can buy it right alongside your
summons here and it looks like they're even going to supercharge them with more
abilities than before now you also have the Chuckle bow and moogle stuffed word
you can travel around they have all of that which is always fun and interesting
and then there's a bunch of locations with new screenshots in terms of how
everything looks you guys can check out the link in description below if you
want to see all of that and the new character profiles and breakdowns
there's just so much information but before this video ends here I didn't
want to go over my own opinion on this because many of you guys think that you
know people who've been watching my video cuz I think a few months back I
did a video talk about how Xenoblade Chronicles definitive edition will be
the best remake in 2020 and I talked about that because I thought that while
the content in there this game is being split up it's not going to be all of the
game so there's that right to really good games but if you're looking at it
from just this standpoint in terms of what this game is doing you cannot deny
the impressive nature of everything that they're packing into this game from a
visual representation so far the graphics are so crisp the graphics are
so good I think that the sound quality the just the look and the feel of
everything they're doing with this remake is top-notch nobody can take that
away the Final Fantasy 7 remake and despite anything that I've said before
in the past about the game when it comes to stuff that I didn't like with the
whole splitting up of the game and it's gonna be in two parts in different
segments I still feel it's going to be an amazing RPG experience and I'm going
picking this game up day one 100% day one for this game the thing that I'm
most excited to try out with this one and I'd love to hear you guys his
thoughts on what you're most excited about when it comes to the Final Fantasy
7 remake is the battle system I talked about a little bit before what's the
most important thing and of course you have your graphics you have your other
things you have your sound you have all sorts of stuff voice acting whatever the
case is but if the battle system isn't fun if the combat isn't fun then it's
not gonna be a great game for my own experience and I think that with this
classic mode and then they have the new school mode it's really gonna fit
multiple different types of play styles in terms of how you like to play and I'm
more of an old-school guy myself so I'm definitely to try out the classic mode
but I'm also gonna try out the new mode as well to see what I like more because
if you look at it Final Fantasy 15 had that action RPG flow and I'll be honest
I like the old-school Final Fantasy's more in terms of battle system than the
Final Fantasy 15 so that's kind of what they're going for a little bit of Final
Fantasy 15 little bit of I would say like a TP you have that inside there and
then you also have a little bit of like maybe Kingdom Hearts kind of put into
there with its own flavor or sauce when it comes to Final Fantasy and the
classic styles so I do think that they're doing a good job of this time
not restricting you like Final Fantasy 15 good with the battle system and only
having kind of one type of way and they didn't add a bunch of stuff until later
but this one it seems like a lot of those options that were added via
patches and everything will be available from day one in Final Fantasy 7 remake
so that actually makes me really excited this is gonna be more of a complete
experience in terms of just combat and what they're doing there and the polish
of it then what we saw with Final Fantasy 15 which was very raw and
unpolished when it first dropped still a fun game but felt a bit clunky for sure
looks like they're going to sure things up with this game and saying hey we
can't mess this up this game needs to sell a lot of copies
I think it needs to sell you know something like 10 million in that range
and order for it to be a success or Square Enix considering how long it's
been in development 5 years plus I'm almost positive that Square etics
definitely broke Bank with the development cost of Final
Fantasy 7 remake especially considering how high-quality the game is so I'm
excited for that I'm excited for the summons I'm exciting for the weapon
enhancement and just to see everything with this awesome coat of paint this
awesome new coat of paint on here looks absolutely phenomenal
and despite you know what Xenoblade Chronicles and other games coming out in
terms of that I think this could easily be one of the best RPGs one of the best
games released in 2020 hands down so I'm excited to see more I'm excited to see
what else they're going to do but it's getting to that point to where it's like
hey I just want the game to come out I don't want to see too much I don't want
to be spoiled with everything I just want the game to come out so I can
experience it and have fun kind of relive those 90s but in a whole new
different type of way right so what do you guys think about the Final Fantasy 7
remake what is your most interesting or exciting thing about this I love to hear
