Final Fantasy 7 as an 80s Dark Fantasy Film (Full Game)

It's Final Fantasy 7 as an 80s Dark Fantasy Film ... or should I say Final Fantasy VII?

Final Fantasy 7 is not just one of my favorite video games of all time... but one of my favorite stories in any form of media.

I know how dear this game is to millions of people around the world so I tried my best to flesh this out as much as possible. Even though this is satire, I still wanted to keep the essence of the game, world, and characters intact.

Initially, I wanted to make a short 2-5 minute video, but 2 months and thousands of images later... here we are. I wasn't able to get every character or every scene in there due to time constraints and sanity constraints but I tried to include the story beats and things that were most memorable to me.

I started the project with Midjourney v4 which really nailed that 80s dark fantasy aesthetic but it took a really really long time to get the images I wanted due to the randomness and jankyness of the images.

At the end of Disc 1 I switched to Midjourney v5 and I moved away from the Dark Fantasy aesthetic and just decided to make images that I thought looked cool. I was still using Dark Fantasy in the prompt just like in v4 and sometimes it would give me that aesthetic, but not quite the way v4 would. I wasn't able to nail the prompting for Dark Fantasy quite well in v5 but it was so much faster to generate the images because the output was a lot less random and the images were nowhere near as janky.

Please enjoy this and feel free to let me know your thoughts about it down in the comments.
