Hey there everyone, and welcome to the first part of my Final Fantasy VII Remake playthrough, a game I have been much excited to finally get my hands on. In this first stream I start by trying to quickly go through the events I’d previously experienced (Chapter 1) in the demo several weeks ago, and then I work my way through Chapter 2 as well as a vast majority of Chapter 3 of the full game.
I get to grips with our main character Cloud Strife, and meet fellow members of the main cast, Avalanche cell leader Barret Wallace and Cloud’s childhood friend Tifa Lockhart. We also have a brief meeting with a local flower seller who may or may not become more important later, as well as with the members of Barret’s Avalanche group Jessie, Biggs, and Wedge. We blow up a reactor, try and sneak through the streets to get a train back to HQ, have some mysterious happenings involving Cloud’s past, and back at Sector 7 I get to grips with some daily business to raise Cloud’s reputation as a mercenary.
Until next time…buh-bye!
