The water tower promise from when they were kids ties directly into the bedroom conversation.

Tifa made Cloud promise to save her because that's what heroes do.

Tifa asks Cloud to save her on the water tower, then again on the bridge.

Cloud literally just tried to murder her instead...

Cloud gets this indifferent smirk and then casually tilts his head side to side to dodge bullets that whiz right past him.

That moment was incredible.

The entire Weapon sequence is literally a Jonah and the whale story.

Tifa enters that mouth as one person and exits completely changed.

The Lifestream showed Tifa the actual truth about what happened in Nibelheim.

She finally understood what Cloud really meant to her as a friend growing up and now as adults.

Tifa's survival in the Lifestream isn't just about the people who love her. That vision of Cloud walking toward Sephiroth gives her a mission.

That conversation between Cloud and Tifa at Cissnei's house might be the most perfectly written scene in FF7 Rebirth.

The Gongaga section is mostly cutscenes, and honestly that's perfect for what they're doing. This is where Cloud completely loses it.

Rebirth takes you to all the classic locations from the original game, but now they're building toward something bigger.

All of it sets up Cloud's mental breakdown.

The Gongaga Reactor scene hits at the exact midpoint of the entire trilogy, not just Rebirth. Square Enix planned Cloud's breakdown to land halfway through a three-game arc.

I love how they use Mako in this remake — it’s not just an energy source, but also something soldiers carry within them. Cloud’s greatest strength and weakness both come from the Mako inside him.

Cloud's breakdown in Rebirth is genuinely terrifying.

When Sephiroth tells him to "murder these soldiers" and you watch Cloud just give in?

It's a Palpatine moment - you're watching him fall to the dark side in real time.

Is Sephiroth secretly a Palpatine?

Will there be a Final Fantasy X Star Wars crossover?

It happened with Magic The Gathering...just sayin'...

Adults voicing child characters in FF7 Rebirth is so distracting. It pulls you right out of the experience.

Cloud's mental state in FF7 Rebirth is fascinating.

Jenova and Sephiroth have this grip on his mind, almost like an externally driven psychosis for their own purposes.

James Sie's performance as Hojo in FF7 Rebirth is fantastic.

Hojo is a mad scientist caricature, which is tricky to play well. You have to be over the top but still believable.

The violin score that plays during Queen's Blood boss matches in FF7 Rebirth is incredible.

When you face Regina or other high-stakes opponents, the music gets so intense and well composed.

I won't spend a dollar on microtransactions. The moment they make me convert real money into gems or premium currency, I'm out.

That system exists to hide how much you're actually spending.

Captain Titov's voice actor in FF7 Rebirth really nailed it.

You can tell right away in chapter four that they cast someone who knows what they're doing.

Avalanche calls themselves freedom fighters. Shinra calls them eco-terrorists.

FF7 nails this perfectly because the game doesn't pick a side for you.
