Can You Beat Final Fantasy 7 With Only Limits?

If you were wondering what I've been working on between other Videos and Live Streams since July last year, now you know. I was never expecting this to be over 2 and a half hours, but here we are. Thank you very much for watching this movie length video, especially if you made it to the twist ending 😁

i'm gonna point it out because i know a disproportionate amount of effort went into editing it- the live count for the HP is chef's kiss

Fun fact: due to a minor bug, those two initial potions can actually be picked up from the same guard - you don't actually have to check them both. Just "talk" to the first guard twice to get both potions.

This might be one of the few cases where overleveling is avoided not because it makes the challenge too easy, but because it makes it harder.

Hey! So glad i was able to help and teach you about the wrong warp, it is such a cool exploit that more people should see! Congrats on finally finishing this challenge! 👍

Forget the Aeris/Aerith debate. She will forever be Airlift to me now.

12:16 Cloud? Don't know 'em. I only know Clood.

A 2 hour and 40 minutes video of a challenge run on a game I have not played? About to have the best meal of my life

2:10:20 - Really neat touch at the end there of having Sephiroth and Jeova’s names glitching between each other at the top left! Amazing video in general, I love challenge runs like this!

I saw you trying killing that first boss for days, months ago and I was like this won't be possible. What a pleasant surprise, let's see NG+ cook.

I remember accidentally getting slots insta-kill on emerald weapon. I didn't know it could even do that, I just had Cait in the party because I liked him, not because his stats were good. I didn't even have his ultimate weapon bc I forgot it in the shinra building

I'd argue Vincent's transformation limit should count as legal under the same reasoning Party-Sephiroth isn't a rulebreak; you're not controlling them. Very fun run to watch either way.

This was seriously the coolest, most impressive run of ffvii I have ever seen. My partner and I keep talking about it. My mind is blown by all of the work that went into it. Congrats!

When you got to the end of the game I was like "But wait, what about that backup save from earlier???" And I was NOT disappointed about how it gets used, what a cool glitch!

Fun fact: the limit system technically started in FF6, though it was never referred to as a limit break

Encounter rate is difficult to explain, but the short version is there's a hidden value the game tracks that goes up as you perform actions and is reset when you get an encounter. The goes up every 8 steps by a set value regardless of if you're walking or running. BUT when the game checks if an encounter should happen it multiplies the danger by 4 if run is held down. This means that walking gives lower encounter rates, but there's literally no reason not to run for the first second or two after each encounter and cut scene(which also resets the counter with a few exceptions).

The HP counters were such incredible additions, thank you very much for whoever went through the effort to edit those in.

"I will never be a memory" nice touch 😉

Aw yeah, I've been main-lining FF7 Rebirth for the past few days, this is the perfect time to watch FF7 content

I’d never seen the ancient forest after beating Ultima Weapon. Good gravy, nearly thirty years old and I still hadn’t seen everything this game has to offer. Amazing
