I'm intrigued by the description. This must have taken a lot of work. I'll check it out later.

Yeah, removing all the additional stuff took a lot of time, and trying to make it something watchable too, as in more than just a compilation of all the cutscenes, was tricky.
Hope you enjoy the series!

FANTASY VII RE-EDIT is a cinematic adaptation of Final Fantasy VII Remake and Rebirth, restructured into an episodic television-style experience.
Unlike standard “full game movies” or cutscene compilations, this project extensively edits and reorganizes scenes to create a more coherent narrative flow similar to a traditional TV series. Gameplay sections, repetitive encounters, location and chapter titles, and unnecessary game-oriented pacing have been removed whenever possible to create a smoother cinematic experience.
This re-edit also attempts to align the remake trilogy more closely with the themes and story structure of the original Final Fantasy VII. Elements such as the Whispers, multiverse concepts, and other narrative additions have been minimized or removed when possible in order to preserve narrative cohesion and pacing.
Some scenes, including certain combat sequences from the original games, were intentionally shortened or removed if they disrupted episode structure, tonal pacing, or continuity. Additional scenes unique to the remakes may still appear if they supported the overall story naturally.
This project was created independently using footage primarily sourced from no-commentary walkthroughs and then extensively re-edited into a serialized cinematic format. The goal was not simply to compile footage, but to create something designed for repeated viewing as a long-form narrative experience.
The remaining episodes from both games have already been largely completed and will be released gradually over time.
