It just wasn't fun and lacked charm imo. It felt empty and lifeless, especially when you compare it to the other PS2 era mascots like Sly Cooper and Ratchet.
I forced myself through it to see if it gets better, but honestly the first part is as good as it gets. I can't believe Naughty Dog went from Crash to this. But at least they put out Uncharted after that so it's all good. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Its an early PS2 game kinda expected.
I remember loving it and 101%D and got the secret ending. I hated the Jak 2 direction and was so disappointed. --- The user formerly known as 626 ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't plan on playing Jak 2 or 3. I got it on sale for $2 years ago, and I was curious to see how it compared to the others. Since I disliked it, I'm going to pass on future installments.

I think you might actually like jak 2 and 3. I didn't like Jak 1 either but loved 2 and 3.

If the games ever go free on PS+, I'll try 2 and 3. Otherwise, I just can't bring myself to purchase them.

I recently replayed Jak 1 and 2. The first game had a lot of charm and was a good length, although a couple of the areas were more frustrating than they needed to be. It was a fun simple and game.
I remembered really liking Jak 2 when I played it the first time. But my opinion greatly changed this time and I gave up on it half way through. The controls were bad, had way too much backtracking (why does the next level always have to be far away?) and frustrating difficulty spikes. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Great trilogy all around but 2 & 3 are where it's at.

Jak II is a shameless GTA imitation, without any of the things that makes GTA fun.
the shooting mechanics are about as barebones as you can get, and they're not satisfying because there's no way to properly aim due to lack of strafe or reticle system, so projectile shooting is auto-aim the open world is essentially nothing but a timesink. it's devoid of any worthwhile content and 95% of missions in the game take place in areas outside the city, so essentially the only purpose of the open world is to waste your time as you drive to mission start points. driving the vehicles is also not enjoyable and there's far less opportunity to interact with the environment like in other open world games. the story just screams "we demand to be taken seriously".as naughty dog's first attempt at serious storytelling, it falls rather flat. every significant character in this game besides daxter is a super serious edgelord and the the best bits of the game, as one might expect, are the platforming sections. easily on par with the first game's and in some cases even better. but there simply isn't enough of them, with the increase in focus on shooting galleries and other gimmick-related missions like escort quests, turret sections and minigames. and the difficulty man, everyone knows about it. the lack of checkpoints is beyond egregious --- https://i.imgtc.com/hB9W4JK.gif "Does our ruin benefit the earth?
