Sorry, couldn't get the YouTube video thing to work.
As you can see it is "100 Things you didn't know about FF7" (the video thankfully adds a "probably") I thought it would be fun to respond to how much of it you did know. For me it goes like this;
1. I have known for a long time
2. I knew that some weapons weren't sellable, but never confirmed with myself the exact amount. Feel I should have known this though.
3. Didn't know that.
4. Didn't know that.
5. I knew that, found out the hard way.
6. Didn't know that (at least now the item has usage).
7. Didn't know that.
8. I knew that KOTR didn't work, and it's kind of obvious escape wouldn't either as there would be no point.
9. I don't think I knew that.
10. I knew that there were enemies that could steal, but never took notice of the number, and I don't think I knew that the Magic Pots could steal.
11. Did not know either of that.
12. I knew it couldn't kill him, but not the exact amount of damage it would take,
13. Didn't exactly know this, but it makes sense.
14. Didn't know this, but it seems logical as it is a "planned battle". I didn't know it was magical, but it makes sense that it is.
15. Didn't know that, as I never had chance to test it.
16. I didn't know for sure, but it makes sense as they were unable to put all of the Weapons into the Japanese version (they wanted to, but couldn't) so it makes sense that the FMV would be different. Surprised to see that know Weapons appear though.
17. I think I knew that.
18. I didn't know that.
19. I didn't know that, but it makes sense from a developer perspective.
20. Can't remember if I knew this or not.
21. I don't think I knew this before watching the video.
22. Didn't know that.
23. Didn't know that.
24. Didn't know that.
25. Didn't know that.
26. I guess I should know that, but never checked it out.
27. I didn't know that.
28. I still need to check what "damage overflow" is, so I obviously didn't know this.
29. I have no idea what this even is.
30. Didn't know this, and I wonder if it was intentional (I doubt it; it was probably something Squaresoft did for themselves, and forgot to take out).
31. Didn't know this, at all.
32. I don't think I knew this.
33. I didn't check the amount.
34. I doubt I knew this, and don't really get it.
35. Didn't know the exact amount, but know it has to be weakened. Of course the "0 HP" thing makes sense.
36. I can remember hearing about this, before the video, and have had it happen to me.
37. Didn't know this.
38. I don't think I knew this.
39. Didn't know this, and have no idea why it changed.
40. Didn't know that, and I thought it was odd that it seemed to have something to do with money.
41. I think I gathered this.
42. Didn't know this, always stuck with finding her near Junon (except possibly my first playthrough if I was "honoring" my first walkthrough).
Well, look at this! There's a text limit - learn something new everyday.
43. Didn’t know that, but I’m not surprised.
44. Never used him (obviously a cheat version of him) at this point.
45. Didn’t know this, but it makes sense as some will lead to game over, and some just end the battle.
46. Didn’t know that, I actually forgot/didn’t know it was usually double damage.
47. I don’t think I knew that.
48. I didn’t know that.
49. I didn’t know the exact percentage, but I knew it didn’t happen that much.
50. I knew that, it doesn’t take too long to figure out.
51. Didn’t know that (I admit it; I didn’t check stats of everything).
52. Didn’t exactly know that, but it makes sense that it would be done that way – as Sephiroth is supposed to be “better than you” at that point.
53. I think I knew that already.
54. I didn’t know this, and it seems a bit strange that it happens this way (it’s not really clear why it freezes).
55. I guess if you’re good enough it’s not impossible (I didn’t pay attention to who the other racers were, so I didn’t know about Teioh being “overpowered” or whatever).
56. I think I probably knew this, but didn’t take notice of it. Also, I didn’t understand what “slow-numb” was for ages, I thought it was another term for “slow” or “slow and stop”. It may have been this video that told me.
57. Didn’t know this.
58. Or this.
59. I knew there were some, but not the exact amount.
60. Didn’t know this one.
61. I did not know this one.
62. Know this one, I did not.
63. I knew this, in fact the description of the attack kind of tells you (though it only makes sense when you see it).
64. I didn’t know this; I just used what I had with these.
65. I can’t remember if I knew this.
66. Didn’t know this.
67. I don’t think I noticed this. I knew the Ghosts had a weakness to Holy.
68. I knew that some enemies absorbed Death (they tend to be ones who take harm from “cure”). I didn’t know the other stuff though.
69. This is actually less than I thought.
70. I didn’t know this, but it makes sense.
71. I’m not even sure I “get” this one. Does this mean no one else can get to 9999 HP without cheating?
72. Still don’t know what “damage overflow” is.
73. I knew she couldn’t steal it all, because one walkthrough says that she will leave some behind, and it has happened to me at least once. I didn’t know there was a system to it, as the walkthrough just said “it changes”.
74. I don’t think I knew this, nor can I remember if I knew about Bone Village.
75. Not sure what this means.
76. Didn’t know this.
77. I knew this (not sure about the Snow one, though).
78. I’ve known this for a while (since the FFVII website I looked at I think).
79. I don’t think I took notice of this, but it makes sense since you “stay the night”, and the sleep music is played. (I don’t think I knew about the Materias – and it’s kind of cheating to mention them here!)
80. I could never figure out how the points worked here, anyway.
81. I knew this; I didn’t check every character though.
82. I don’t think I ever got past the afro guy.
83. I didn’t time them, but I guess I knew this subconsciously.
84. I think I knew this, but not the table. I knew that the names were shown instead of attacks (not sure about the Chocobo/Odin stuff).
85. Didn’t know this, but it makes sense.
86. Didn’t know the specifics of these, but some of them make sense.
87. Didn’t know this.
88. Didn’t know this.
89. Didn’t know that, but I wouldn’t put it past a game to have an “exploit”.
90. I don’t think I knew this, and I wonder why she does.
91. Didn’t know this, never got to that stage.
92. Didn’t know this.
93. I didn’t know this, but it’s a nice touch.
94. I knew it didn’t always work, I just didn’t know why.
95. Still need to check what “Yuffie Warping” is.
96. It never clicked with me for some reason. (Also, I probably thought Kujata’s attack had earth incorporated into it, and Typhon’s included wind)
97. I think I knew this.
98. I didn’t know this.
99. Did-dent know this.
100. I didn’t know this exactly, but it makes sense that they are due to how the game works.
How many of these did you know already? I was actually surprised at the amount I didn’t know, as I’m afraid this is my favorite FF.
How much of these things did you know (response to a YouTube video)?
