    Again I'll summarise:
    -Kor takes a look into the past to see if what Onin said was true.
    -Had MAYBE set his eyes out for old Jak first (Jak growing up in Haven City he thought).
    -By going back to Haven, he thought he would end up in the future where young Jak was already sent. He had intended to use old Jak to activate the stone.
    -Fortunate enough to end up in Haven where young Jak was still present. Since old Jak was corrupted by Dark Eco, he used young Jak; in other words, everything was going according to plan.
    If Kor had ended up in Haven when Jak was already sent, he would no longer be able to go to the past, because the last rift gate was used to send young Jak and Samos. He was fortunate enough to end up in Haven where young Jak was still present.
    But WAIT, if Kor and the gang had already used the last rift gate, how come they were still able to use it? We can assume the last rift gate was still in working condition. After the gang followed their destiny and went back, that's when the rift gate got destroyed.

      VTNVIVI Ok, you could explain the time travel between "Jak and Daxter" and "Jak II". However, at the end of "Jak III", Jak said to his gang something about "I'd like to be called by my really name: Mar", so Ashelin get confused about Jak could be "that Mar" we all hear during the trilogy. Is that true? Is Jak that "Mar"? If yes, How could be him? I'll appreciate a lot if you can make a video about this :D

      Santiago Bonelli nun I don't think Jak is mar because they never shown at the end of jak3 that Jak never went back to the pass to build haven city since mar him self build haven city.
      And Jak said at the end of the 3th game you could called me by my first name mar.
      I think Jak is name after mar not the mar that build haven city.

    Jak 2 honestly has the most straightforward time travel I've seen in a game. It's not really complicated. Jak, Born in the future, sent to the past to grow up and get strong, gets sent to the future, kills Kor, sends his younger self to the past. And it's safe to assume that Kor could've just naturally lived the entire 300 year gap seeing as how he was already the precursor's ancient enemy. Really straight forward.

    Samos: "So, this is how it happened..."
    Samos: "Find yourself, Jak!"
    Errol: "We've been waiting for you."

      Oh you see what he said to Onin? My theory I came up with ever since I played jak 2 for the first time back in...when was it? 03 or 04 i believe...anyways, my theory has always been that Onin is the bird lady. But then, years later like around between 2015-2021, I made another theory for online, which is that she's a descendant OF the bird lady. But I feel like my first theory makes way more sense because if she was a descendant of the bird lady then how would she know jake? Now that doesn't make sense. But what also doesn't make sense is how she survived for that long.

    You forgot to note that the group panicked and accidentally launched themselves when Kor appeared in the rift gate. When metalheads began invading, they were calm and it would be possible for them to figure out how to close the gate, clean up the damage, and possibly get answers from Samos (Jak would get more training as well as experience in fighting metalheads before going to the future). Samos also never says a single word about the future until it was clear that the future is now written in stone. I like to believe there are two different time "loops" and they cross each other like a figure 8.
    In the first "loop", we get a fully trained older Jak going into the future when he wants to. This Jak is armed and ready to lead the war against Kor. Kor doesn't like his odds against this older Jak and tries to find answers. By appearing in the past, he creates the second "loop" where Jak enters the future pre-maturely with no knowledge of what to expect. The first "loop" Kor is then defeated and Samos and young Jak is sent to the past without knowing Kor altered it.
    In the second "loop", we have the common Jak and first "loop" Samos going into the future without preparation. First "loop" Samos has no knowledge of second "loop" future and is easily captured. Jak is unprepared and chaos ensues. Second "loop" Kor doesn't feel threatened by this Jak and didn't change the past as badly as his first "loop" counter-part. Jak manages to defeat Kor and second "loop" Samos and young Jak is sent to the past. Second "loop" Samos is now aware of the greater threat which increases the chance of creating the first "loop" rather than another second "loop".
    I feel my theory also fixes the chicken and the egg problem. There are many things that could happen but they all would either being the first or second loop which would then complete itself. Maybe in the first timeline, Kor wasn't defeated and Samos fled to the past with young Jak. If Kor searched for young Jak, we get the second loop and if not, we get the first loop.

  • @jacecotton4190
    @jacecotton4190 7 років тому +13

    The Oracle said that Kor chased Mar through time, and that Mar hid his tracks well. Therefore we can deduce that the "last rift gate" doesn't really mean the last one in existence, it means the last one that Mar went through before founding Haven City, which was all that was between Kor and the last Precursor Stone, his one true goal. You don't really need a whole lot of back and forth or theories involving changing what was implied to have happened in Jak II. Kor went through the gate, Mar showed up, founded Haven City, 300 years later, older Jak shows up, etc. etc. I think Occam's Razor applies in this case.
    Kor said that this is where it all began, knowing that at some point Jak did defeat him, which is how young Jak went back into the past. However, he misconstrued the idea that Onin believed Jak needed to be untouched by dark eco to defeat him. On the contrary, it's revealed in the spin-off Daxter game that Onin was actually the one who informed the Baron of Jak's arrival, knowing that he needed the dark powers to defeat Kor, which Kor himself did not know, thus his "original plan" that he thought all was going according to was foiled.
    Also, no reason to believe Kor is immortal just because he can live for really long. He's not human, so he isn't necessarily restricted to human lifespans. That said, he lived for far longer than just "hundreds of years", at least if we're to believe that the "dark leader" the Oracle referred to was indeed Kor and not someone else.

    • @VtnVivi
      @VtnVivi  7 років тому +6

      Thank you for sharing! I purposely did not talk about Mar because that's whole complete different subject. True, Kor did chase Mar through time hence the phrase "you can't hide from be boy". Like I mentioned, Kor's presence at the rift gate wasn't really explained, it just left room for speculating. During the first time loop, Jak going to the future, Kor had no idea who old Jak was. Now in the second time loop, the one in which Onin predicted old Jak, Kor found out who Jak was. The way he was talking to him "It's you Jak!" makes it seem like he found out about this in this second time loop. So if Kor was chasing after Mar through the rift gate in Jak 2, sure we can say he was looking for Mar. If so, Kor later ended in a future where Haven City was founded, later to realise that Mar founded the city and hid the precursor stone. After all, Mar mysteriously died, meaning Kor wasn't involved in his death. Like you said, he goes through the rift gate trying to look for him, ends up in a future where Haven exists but with Mar dead.

    • @GavleProdxtions
      @GavleProdxtions 5 років тому +4

      But Jak is Mar, i'm confused. Mar had to have originated and founded haven city then seen a potential threat or a flaw and needed to go back in time to fix it so he found his young self and sent him even farther into the past to grow up? Where Mar would then die but because he basically duplicated himself he lives on to fulfill his destiny? It's like deja vu with Denzel Washington.

  • @BlueKnightV20
    @BlueKnightV20 5 років тому +6

    I know this video is roughly 2-years old but I thought I'd bring it up. There I believe is a type of time travel that's not used that much in any media. And that is if someone (in this case we'll say Jak & Daxter) was sent to the future, but they still affect the time after they already left. As if they never left in the 1st place. I know it doesn't make a lot of sense (I can see why this version is barely used) but it's how I've thought of the whole Mar thing with Jak.
    But yes I agree with what you said and also about the time loop.

  • @Lunocity
    @Lunocity 5 років тому +10

    Another theory could be that Jak 2 could could be the first loop essentially
    In the future young Jak is born. As Jak 3 explains he is brought up in Haven city to be a weapon.
    The metal head war still happens, but without adult Jak showing up, as he doesn't exist in this time.
    The baron gets the last precursor egg and without adult Jak to stop him, he successfully detonates it.
    Onin could see that if Jak grew up, he could beat Kor and the Baron, thus saving everyone.
    She tells the underground this and in a last ditch effort they send Jak and their leader, Samos, to the past.
    Kor sees them escape and jumps into the rift gate, and while he does see our Jak, he is swiftly shot to the future again.
    From there Jak & Daxter 1 and 2 happen.
    By the end however, Samos remembers that to keep time from paradoxing, they need to send young Jak and young Samos to the past.
    This would explain how the loop was created without causing a paradox.

    From what I gathered, Haven City is the future of The Precursor Legacy's (Jak 1) world. So in the beginning of Jak 2, they are sent to the future. However it turns out that Jak was actually originally from Haven City and sent back to the past, thus making the events of TPL take place in the past, and in the beginning of Jak 2 he was actually returned to his present.
    As for whether Jak is the Mar, or just an ancestor by the name of Mar, it's not exactly made clear. Ashelin makes a comment along the lines of "Wait a minute, Jak is Mar? The Mar?" which would indicate that he is Mar, but then the series ended before they could do anything to confirm or deny that. I personally like to think he is the actual Mar of legend.

  • @NotOrdinaryInGames
    @NotOrdinaryInGames 7 років тому +21

    I never saw it like this. Since time travel is (supposedly) pure fiction, there are several rules it can abide by. Time loops can work in different ways, and I prefer this: important events in history, events that are needed to make the future happen, MUST take place. Even if time travel is involved, and past is altered, those important events will happen anyway, maybe differently, but will still find a way to happen.
    The way I saw it, is that metalheads invaded NORMALLY (no time travel), Haven City got built, young Jak was born, sent into the past to train, to then return. Kor SOMEHOW finds out about Onin's plan, and finds a way to get to the past, to stop the it. He ALMOST succeeds, but Jak uses the rift rider anyway. However, Jak then gets captured by Praxis, who was tipped off. That is where Kor succeeds. Jak is captured, and altered. Now, there is no adult Jak to fight Kor (with whatever superpowers the precursor stone offered), and young Jak is obviously too young to stop him also. HOWEVER, the IMPORTANT EVENT of YOUNG JAK AND SAMUS TRAVELING TO THE PAST, still happens. The events of Jak 1 happen after this time loop already happened, at least once. Also, I believe Kor stayed in the past, and got old by living the 300 years, waiting.
    What is important to remember, however, is that the final product is not necessarily what was planned form the start. If you replay Jak 2 and 3 several times, you notice ideas and dialogues that hint at many other things, but lead nowhere. It should be obvious that Naughty Dog had grander plans for Jak and Daxter, and some of their ideas ended up scrapped. It is entirely possible that the plot of Jak II still has pieces of a previous draft of story from Naughty Dog's writers.
    That was a lot of text, wasn't it?

    • @VtnVivi
      @VtnVivi  7 років тому

      Very interesting stuff you got there. The metal head war always happened, the invasion always happened anyway. Kor existed somewhere during the times of Sandover village, he was hiding we can say. The Kor we saw was simply from the future, trying to see if what Onin said was true. Kor was an ancient enemy to the precursors, so Kor starting everything from Sandover village is not necessarily true. He did send some metal heads, all that did is slightly alter the future in a way which wouldn't really ruin his plan. Let's just say he added more metal heads into the past, that's simply how I see it. The fact that he said ''you can't hide from me boy'' tells us that he was looking for someone, Jak. If Kor had stayed in the past, that means there would be two versions of him if we go with the idea that he existed 300 years ago, which he did if we go with the metal heads war. About what you said, the loop happening at least once, perhaps yes. The first loop happened without Kor looking into the past. For the second time, Onin predicts and Kor peaks into the past by also slightly changing the future.

So good to know I'm not the only one who get a headache because of thinking that too much. But my conclusion was pretty much the same than yours but you explained it better than me and more clearly. Thanks. And thank you of this great channel. I like your videos. It's fun to watch videos about my favorite games, like Sly Cooper-, Jak & Daxter- and Ratchet & Clank- series, from the guy who seems to be as excited about those games as I am.

    All this time stuff actually makes sense. What's confusing is why Jak was pumped with dark eco. And why we never see a young Keira.
    Anyway, after the time loop had happened multiple times, I think Kor bribed the Baron to immediately inject Jak with Dark Eco because Older Jak kept beating him using the Precursor Stone. He assumed that he would easily kill Jak and get the Stone. However, a few pea shooters from Sig , Krew, and Torn somehow stopped him lol

      We don't see young Keria because she was born in Sandover village, Jak was born in the future in the city and when he and young Samos get sent back Jak lives like a normal child and Samos meets someone and those two have a baby and that baby is Keira. So while Jak and Samos *do* belong in the future, Keira and Daxter are actually from the past

    Another thing to add to "Destiny" is that it was Keira who built the time vehicle in the first place, for her past self to discover with Jak, and then in Haven, over the course of roughly 2 and a half years, assemble it back together from her memory/recollection of it. Same thing with all of Mar's creations in Jak 3 for Jak to explore and discover.
    The whole concept isn't entirely new, Back To The Future set the standard for having a sequence of events always play out and to NEVER disturb those sequences, or else you'd just fade from existence or the fabric of time would rip open and all existence would cease.

    I'm a couple of years late on this, but I've been replaying the games recently, did some research and I'm pretty sure I get the time travel aspect of the game now. I'm also including excerpts from a Wiki on the matter.
    From what I understand, Jak and the gang are in what we call a Causal Loop (not just a time loop). It's a loop in which a sequence of events is among the causes of another event, which is in turn among the causes of the first-mentioned event. So opening the Rift Portal in Jak 1 unleashed the Metal Heads in the world, which therefore caused the Second Metal Head War. But without the 2nd Metal Head War, Young Jak would have never been sent into the past, because he wouldn't have needed to grow up in order to fight Metal Kor. This phenomenon is also called predestination paradox, which means a time loop in which a time traveler who has gone into the past causes an event that ultimately causes the original future version of the person to go back into the past.
    Simply put :
    - 2nd Metal Head War leads to Jak being sent into the past
    - Jak being sent into the past leads to 2nd Metal Head Wars
    This is supposed to mess up your brain because the origins of Causal Loops are unknown. A similar example is given in Doctor Who, in which of a time-traveler who copies Beethoven's music from the future and publishes it in Beethoven's time in Beethoven's name. Maybe there is a timeline in which the 2nd Metal Head War happened without the Rift Rider and maybe there is a timeline in which Young Jak was sent into the past without the help of Older Jak, but we can't know for sure. Nonetheless, if this timeline happened, it disappears as soon as the Causal Loop is created. Because from now on, the Metal Heads invades earth following the opening of the Rift Rider and Young Jak is sent into the past with the help of Older Jak.
    Go read on Causal Loops. It's super interesting.

    Very interesting explanation. Would you ever consider tackling the whole "Is Jak part of the Mar family, or THE Mar that built Haven City" theory? I've been going around the Internet and it seems a lot of people are confused about it. As much as I love Jak 3, it did give me a little trouble figuring that out due to some seemingly conflicting statements in game.

    • @VtnVivi
      @VtnVivi  7 років тому +2

      Ohhhh the whole ''Is Jak Mar'' thing? Absolutely ;) Yes, many are still confused.

  • @anamecalledname
    @anamecalledname 4 роки тому +2

    So this is the way I see it. There are two timelines. Mar built Haven City. Damas is a descendant of Mar, and named Jak after Mar. Young Jak was threatened by Kor to find the tomb of Mar and get the last precursor stone, but Kor could not be defeated and Samos left with Jak via a rift gate into the past. Damas loses Jak. When Jak is 15, they rebuild the rift gate to go back to the present. Now that Jak is grown, he can face Kor. But impatience has made Kor go back in time for another Jak, thus creating multiple timelines. When Kor is defeated, it could be assumed that young Jak went back in time and found Damas. But since the present doesn't become altered, young Jak never reunited with his father, so we can assume that Jak is where he is now, in Haven, as a result of staying there with Samos. In the third game, Jak discovers his father is Damas and that he is of the house of Mar.
    In this way, everything comes full circle, and the only thing that's really very iffy is where young Jak goes. If Kor is defeated, there's no reason for him to go back to Sandover where teen Jak was, unless he just grows up in that timeline. In that case, he'd be dead and Jak wouldn't exist in the present. So he has to go back to his own timeline he was pulled from so as not to disrupt the cycle. So there is an instance of present, past, and deep past time travel.

    Samos' family is weird. If Keira is his daughter, biologically speaking, it means she was born after young Samos was sent back to the past with Jak, which means if he was like 3 or 4, that she was about 11 or 12 in the events of TPL since Jak is 15, plus they must have been raised together so they were more like brother and sister ? And the mother is inexistant (are they any mothers in the games tho ?) :0

      No its simply that Keira and even Daxter were not born in the future.

    @MrPeaTearGryfin 6 років тому +1

    I watched your video, and I think you may have overthought this a bit. Let me give you an alternative theory. We are working on the assumption that the Kor that came through the rift gate was coming BACK from Haven City. What if, instead he were coming from the future. Remember in Jak 3, the Precursors mention that they had been at war with the Hora-quan (Metal Heads) for centuries, always being equally matched. What if, instead of Kor coming from the future, he came from the past, hoping to find a world where the Precursors were no more. He hoped that he could let time work it's magic and find that the Precursors were already gone and he could easily take over the world. He comes through the rift and notices Jak freaking out in the rift. When Jak goes through the rift he is amused because he realizes that he will be still be around at whatever point in time Jak came to in and could kill him there. Kor then proceeds to take over the world with ease. He then has an iron clad grip on the world for hundreds of years until Mar comes around. He was able to unite the people to the point where they had a fighting chance against him. Kor engages humanity again, but finds himself in an endless stalemate. Remember Baron Praxis' words that he had been involved in at least one other war with the Metal Heads before. Kor realizes that Praxis is no match, but learns through his mole in Praxis' forces, Kaeden, that there is a band of underground fighters who, through the help of Onin, are looking for the heir to the throne of Mar. Kor realizes that the heir would be capable of destroying him. He infiltrates the Underground as an old man where he finds the boy. He immediately recognizes the Seal of the House of Mar and knows that he is the heir. He learns through Onin, now an ally of his, that the boy it is the boy's destiny to find the last remaining Precursor egg and use it's power to destroy the Metal Heads. He believes that he can use the power of the last Precursor egg to become even stronger and finally end this stalemate with the humans. What he didn't plan on though, was that the rift rider he ignored several hundred years earlier would arrive at that exact point in time and Jak would rise up the ranks of Underground to the point of becoming an actual threat to him. He also learns from Onin that Jak is the heir to the house of Mar. He then puts two and two together and realizes that the kid was sent back in time to protect him from Kor, but doesn't know the exact details of how it happened. He allows Jak to continue to assist in finding the Precursor egg believing that he can still easily take care of him when the time comes. However, Jak proves to be too much for Kor and Kor dies in their final battle. The kid is then sent back in time, creating the time loop, so that he might come back and do what he did as an adult.
    Either that, or Naughty Dog really didn't think their time travel through very well.

  • @dextergrif2019
    @dextergrif2019 2 роки тому

    I see Kor’s first appearance through the Rift Gate as being the true origin point of the time loop. From what we know, the Metal Heads wiped out Precursor civilization and moved on, likely losing access to the Rift Gate on Jak’s planet. After Jak activates the Rift Gate in Jak II, Kor finally regains access to Jak’s world and creates the future we see in Jak II.
    My theory is that the original timeline before Jak activates the Rift Gate for the first time is that Jak is actually just a boy born in the past to unknown parents and the Explorer actually is his uncle. After the events of the Precursor Legacy and the activation of the Rift Gate he creates a new timeline where Jak is a boy named Mar born in the future who goes back in time to become the Jak we see in The Precursor Legacy and then that “uncle” turns into an adopted uncle instead. So Jak was simultaneously born in Sandover Village AND Haven City. He’s just an anomaly in the time-stream in my eyes.
    Or maybe Naughty Dog had some oversights because time travel storylines are really difficult to write in a way that avoids all plot-holes… lol

    • @AAA310

      VTNVIVI OK THERE WE GO NOW THAT MAKES SENSE. It confusing where people said he breaks the loop. Well of course he breaks the loop because he lives on lol. Jak 1 and 2 repeat over and over. And as for your Kor theory. I see as this
      There are 2 Kors
      1 that exists in the past already(precursor legacy) hes just not relevant yet or he just doesnt exist yet and arrive around Mars time
      And there is the Kor they fight in the future. He is the one that shows up in the rift gate. When the jak and gang go through the rift gate Kor just chases them back to the future. But that Kor already came from the future he just wanted to see Onin's prediction as he was already Young Jaks mentor i presume(thats why he says "you cannot hide from me boy"). The reason why Kor doesnt stay in the past when he peaked through the rift is because that wouldnt make sense as thatd mean he'd just live through the same events over and over. And thered basically be only 2 Kors living at the same time which wouldnt make the storyline because Kor would just keep running into himself or he'd live through the same events over and over The reason why the rift gate was in his nest was because he used it to go peak into the past initially. When Onin told him the prediction he put the rift gate there. Its impossible for Kor to have stayed in the past and attack Sandover. As for his metal heads thats a different story. They might have.

    What I thought about after beating the trilogy was if Mar founded haven city, and jaks real name is mar. Yet he was born way after the founding of haven city. Is jak the founder?

    • @VtnVivi

      Exactly the question we ask ourselves.

  • @flogik9351
    @flogik9351 7 років тому

    Well that's pretty good i think but there is one which is still bothering me : the "ship" they took to travel through the rift gate. Where did the ship comes from because if you remember keira said in jak 2 that the blueprints were what she reminds of the ship they used in jak1 but in jak1 they discovered the ship between the precursor gate so it means that after sending young jak and young samos back to the past the ship was hidden behind this gate ? Who did that ? Young samos and young jak ? impossible right because that would mean they already were to maia and col's place (don t remember the right word sry ) ?

    • @VtnVivi
      @VtnVivi  7 років тому

      I'd assume young Samos hid it, he remembers everything that happened. The ship was from Haven City, a replica that Keira had created.

    • @flogik9351
      @flogik9351 7 років тому

      VTNVIVI I guess but i find weird when they "discovered" it because it looked like to samos it s the 1st time he ever saw it

    • @flogik9351
      @flogik9351 7 років тому

      Well i think there were 2 ship : in jak 1
      the first should be the one the young jak and samos took to come back, and the second one is the one behind the precursor gate ?

    • @flogik9351
      @flogik9351 7 років тому

      That would explain why samos was surprised when they opened the precursor gate : it was the 1st he saw what was behind the gate but maybe not the fisrt time he saw the ship. That makes sense

  • @Wormeatan3
    @Wormeatan3 7 років тому

    This is what I think about what Samos says at the beginning of Jak 2, "So this is how it happened." He doesn't say it because he "forgets" so to speak. He says it because he now realizes that this is how himself and older Jak come to arrive in Haven City. I'm sure when he was younger, before himself and young Jak left to the past he always questioned how/when his old self and older Jak arrived in Haven City. That's my opinion on why he said it anyways.

  • @SpcyToast

    I'd say the precursors couldn't defeat kor so they threw him into a rift gate and locked him in there along with the other metalheads. when Jak and everyone open the rift gate, they release Kor and everyone else gets shot through time to the future. Kor the uses Baron Praxis to remove Mar's bloodline from rule and capture young Jak as a way of keeping a pure Jak (descendant of mar) while getting the older Jak to do his bidding and get the last precursor egg.

  • @kauecampos8756
    @kauecampos8756 3 роки тому

    If opening the portal and led Kor out with the metal heads was what caused the war, then why Samos dit it again? Would not be better to just do nothing besides guard the portal? Or he did it to secure that the events of jak 3 occur the way it supposed to and protect world of its destruction? If thats the case, how would he know that?

    • @kauecampos8756

    • @VtnVivi
      @VtnVivi  3 роки тому +2

      The latter. To make sure everything happens as destined I'd say. If they use the portal to time travel, it would guarantee young Jak travelling back to the past. A stable time loop.

    My brain might be boggling abit but the only way i can see Jak being Mar and not just named after him (If thats what they want to go for) is:
    1) Everything takes place from J1 to J3. Jak sends his young self back to the past as it originally is suppose to happen.
    2) Since meeting his older self (Meaning that this meeting of young and old Jak had a lasting effect on them both) Young Jak actually remembers alot more of what happens in the future.
    3) This Young Jak now keeps his original name (Mar) and decides that because he now knows more about what is to come he decides this time to not go back to the past (Pre maturely like ending of J1 or when he is ready as an older Jak) and prepares for the future events.
    4) Young Jak now is able to prepare, train, and build Haven City/The Shield and much more and make the legendary name for himself in the future.
    You can tie it back in as not a branching path/Alt reality but as Younger Jak setting the foundation for the future without unraveling time itself since we clearly see that you can have multiple of someone from different times in one place.
    Doesn't break any Time laws the game places (from what i can understand) and effectively establishes Jak as Mar.

  • @theygothype6398
    @theygothype6398 7 років тому +10

    The thing is Jak is Mar and their is a lot of talk about Mar and how he built so many things such as the precursor catacombs etc. Which means he goes back in time to build all of these things and dies shortly after which could explain why his armor was found there orrrr he could have just left it knowing that one day he will come across it again? So I never played the Jak games that much maybe beating the a total of 3-4 times each I was more of a Ratchet and Clank guy back then so i don't know all the great things mar did and im so confused so it would be cool if you made a video about how the whole mar thing works ill really appreciate it btw new subscriber love your vids

    • @VtnVivi

    • @theygothype6398
      @theygothype6398 7 років тому

      VTNVIVI I don't know if you remember but i do because i just played Jak 3 not too long ago but i remember Damos, Jak's father, said find my son Mar before he died and in the end the crew is surprised when the precursors referred to Jak as Mar and also saying he has a lot of things to do so Im sure Jak is Mar the thing is Jak doesn't seem to be the type of person to build and do all of these things and just the whole true purpose of jak just makes it even more confusing

    • @notthebestartwork317

  • @jacobholly2096
    @jacobholly2096 2 роки тому

    What if the essence of the precursor stone is inside Jak that's why the kor we saw came out of the rift saying "you can't hide from me boy" maybe when when young Jak touched the stone some of it's energy went in him which is why Jak can channel so much Eco without any harmful side effects well sort of. That's my explanation.
