Just in time for the remake, the Game Professor takes an in-depth look at the story and themes of one of the most beloved games ever made.
1:32 - Sector 1: "So let's hear your story"
20:16 - Sector 2: "A golden shiny wire of hope"
26:11 - Sector 3: "Constructed piece by piece"
29:27 - Sector 4: "The Planet's dyin'"
43:05 - Sector 5: "I don't wanna think of them as dead"
57:37 - Sector 6: "I am what you see"
1:12:44 - Sector 7: "After all, Cloud, you are..."
1:29:09 - Sector 8: "Nothing is meaningless"
Note: Some people are experiencing some distortion during Cid's portion of the summary; it's something on Youtube's side, so I hope they fix it and I'm sorry if you get it!
