Final Fantasy VII Remake - Chapter 6: Light the Way, part 1
Welcome to the Sector 4 Underplate. This is the first full-fledged dungeon in FF7 Remake. It's pretty short, but it's a maze which can artificially extend the length. Perhaps it is also somewhat Zelda-influenced? There's also some lore about Sector 4, concerning how sectors under the upper plate get an artificial day/night cycle, and some new enemies with slightly more advanced mechanics (baby steps).
This episode and the next are both going to end at strange-seeming points because of small technical difficulties, although if I wasn't pointing it out here, I wonder how many would notice?
This is a Let's Play of Final Fantasy 7 Remake on Normal difficulty with no commentary. The goal is to find hidden content, important details in the environmental storytelling, and interesting material related to fan theories. Any interesting material found will be grouped into smaller Discoveries and Extras videos. Hopefully by the end we will better understand the story, lore, and world building.
This playthrough will be baseline reference material for a future commentated Hard playthrough. The Hard playthrough will focus on story, lore, game design, fan theories, and whether or not Remake part 2 is going to be worth the wait after certain plot twists. You know which ones.
The playthrough is on a PS4 Pro with an SSD.
Thanks for watching!
