Which game is considered the best in the series?
I liked the first one the most desu but I'm betting most people have fonder memories of 2
>>7393556782
>>739355678I liked the first one. The second one didn't finished it and the third one I have fond memories because it was a christmas gift from my grandma.
>>7393556781>3>2
Jak 1 is a platformer while 2 and 3 are more about the action, I think 3 had more platforming than 2 but it didnt have much outside the light temple
first one is good, 2 and 3 are forgettable.
Jak X Combat Racing, and it's not even close.
>>739355678I tried the first one and the inconsistent double jump pissed me off enough to not try the sequel.
>ruins your cutscenes
>>739355678Jak 2, legit the only game from the PS2 era that managed to transition from lighthearted to more gritty themes without coming out as edgy (looking at you, PoP WW)
>>739355678Much like with R&C, the first game is for platforming babbies while the second one is for gaymers
>>7393556781 > 2 > 3
>>739358287>without coming out as edgyIM GONNA KILL PRAXIS
>>739358287WW is kino
>>739358345ok except that one>>739358360The only thing WW did right was combat and that was taken from WW and ported to TTT that does basically everything better than WW. You just love WW because of Shadee's ass in the intro cinematic and because you were 13 when it came out
>>739355678Anyone else think that Jak and Daxter struggled with appealing to audiences because the characters look strange? The characters look like Hobbits from Lord of the Rings in that they are midget humans who are barefoot or at least have their giant feet semi exposed. And on top of that they have extremely big elf ears. That is such a bizarre design to start a franchise with.Even worse is trying to get edgy with such character designs.
>>7393556782 > 1 > 3 for me3 is also really good though, but they fumbled the story in a few places that still bothers me. 1 was low stakes but introuced the nice cast. 2 is pure kino from beginning to end, and 3 is pretty great at wrapping up the Precursor narrative but shafted Keira and the way it reuses Errol from 2 is really disappointing.
>>739355678The first one, obviously.
>>739359045Good fucking times... It has been too long.
>>739358360>>739358493The combat, AAND the storyline, AAND the graphics/artstyle, AAND the sailing from Island to Island vibe, AAND the dungeons are not bad just because they're worse than OoT and TP.Maybe they're also slightly worse than dungeons in MM but only slightly. I certainly think WW's dungeons disinterest outside of Dragon Roost and Tower of the Gods.
>>739359264Did the bot break
>>739359323Being autistic, I can tell you every second time I post anything people call me out for being a bot. It's pretty annoying, but it's probably related to how I write rhetorically, and it ends up sounding too weird or pedantic. I suppose "AAND" looks incredibly odd, and repeating it looked like botted.
>>7393556782 > X > 1 > actual feces > 3 > Daxter
The daxter spinoff for the psp
>>7393602201 > 3 > X >>>>> actual feces > 2
>>739360603Somebody got filtered by the difficulty spikes.
I bought jak 1 because I saw the commercial where he does the electricity jump and for some reason I assumed it was a dragonball knock off with supersaiyan powers. I was extremely salty and disappointed when it was just a collectaton.I still bought and enjoyed jak 2 and jak 3 though.Kind of bizarre how it used to be common to just be scammed by packaging and commercials like that all the time.I actually went back and played the recompiled trilogy on the steam deck. Jak 3 really holds up well. Jak 1 holds up less than I would have expected. Jak 2 doesn't hold up but I don't think anyone expected it to.
>>739360964The game just sucks anon
>>739355932Based
This one was obviously the best of the series.
For me it's probably 2 >= 3 > 1 but they're all great. At least from my memory of playing them way back then, I haven't played any in over a decade.
>>739361825Its story is written by Neil Druckmann kek
Is there anything worth playing besides the trilogy?
>>739362076Jak X is really fun. Daxter was surprisingly good. Lost Frontier is a hard drop in quality, but it had some fun moments. I liked how it brought the other eco colors back, but you couldn't use dark jak (the reason was bullshit). You do get dark daxter, however.
1 > 3 > 2>b-but muh difficultyI do not care, Jak 2 has a shittier map, boring weapons, and bland missions. Games are more than just their difficulty
>>739362076Jak X is fun if you liked the driving from 3 at all, do not go into it expecting a standard kart racer though. Daxter is also pretty harmless fun.Lost Frontier is just a shittier version of 2 and 3. The eco powers are a neat idea but poorly executed
