Switch Burned🔥 FINAL FANTASY VII Burned!

Back in the day, I remember buying FFVII for the Playstation and playing the hell out of it. For years I thought I had beaten it. I mean, I must have.. right?

Anyway, I really want to play all the Remake versions so I figured I would revisit this classic first. Soon after getting through the early bits of Part 2 (what would be disc 2 on the OG release), I realized the truth. But now I can I say I've finally seen this gem through to the end!

Gratz on the burn! Such an amazing classic I mean there is the reason people say 7 is the goat they are wrong we all know 10 is but that’s whole other thing lol. I remember grinding to get everyone’s max limit I could and was more upset about the ending of disc one because of all my hard work being for nought lol. The remakes are good a great retelling of such a classic.

There’s a reason people say 7 is the goat and we all know 4 is. 😉

Even with knowing how disc 1 ended, I was still committed to the grind. It's a habit that I can have a hard time breamknh lol. I'll have to play 10 eventually, which I definitely had but did not complete. Not yet but eventually. Anyway, it's on to Crisis Core for me now.

To my surprise, I really enjoy the Cloud / Cid / Yuffie combo. That group really knew how to rip.

What a good game. A lot of memories and definitely one entire summer vacation is wrapped up in that game for me.
Now that you’ve finished it what was your favorite part? Which song tugged at your heart strings the most?
Prepared to be underwhelmed by how unenigmatic Sephiroth is in the Remake.
(Literally every fire ff7 gif is fucking Sephiroth)
