Download Gjoerulv's Hardcore Mod: forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=6818.0
This is a playthrough of the latest version of Gjoerulv's Hardcore Mod (v1.0.6s) for the PC version of Final Fantasy VII. As you might guess by the naming of the Mod, this Mod was made by a guy called Gjoerulv.
Also, I had already played through this Hardcore Mod several times in the past before this playthrough, however, for some reason, this never made it to YouTube. So, I decided to play through it again (it is still as fun as it used to be) and finally put it on my YouTube Channel.
What it this Mod does, in Gjoerulv's words:
Basically boosts the game difficulty. This mod mainly strives to refresh the gameplay by sticking to the original settings, BUT it also tweaks some enemy AI, spell effect, equipments, etc, for different reasons. For instance, there are quite a few bugs in the AI and field scripts. Most of these have been fixed (all I know of). Also, many equipments, spells and enemy skills are useless, gets obsolete and/or are overpowered or cheap. Thus some equipments and attack effects are tweaked in an attempt to balance things out.
With the above said, keep in mind I try to keep all things as close to the original as possible while refreshing the gameplay. I don't want a new FF7, I want a refreshed, more difficult FF7.
This mod also add some new enemies and bosses to the game. Basically at every summon materia there is a new boss.
