Just to be clear, I know the eggs are already 'currency', but the secrets in the pause menu don't count, and i wanna buy important shit with it, like taco bell
Excellent video my guy, I always love seeing people's takes on how they would do a new Jak and Daxter game. You definitely posed some great ideas, and has got my brain ticking as well. I hope to maybe see more Jak content from you!
Cool opinions, bro. . Story wise, the best option would be to either rewrite (remake completely) or retcon/ignore Lost Frontier. Acting like it still exists in its current form would be terrible, and a reboot will erase the characters we grew to love, replacing them with weird AU clones.
Clearly you are mistake good sir. That is actually a poster of one of Chris Hemsworth's older works called ''Home and Away', an Australian television soap opera which started back in the late 80's in which Mr Hemsworth debuted in the year of 2004 after being called back for another role. Simple mistake don't worry.
If they wanna reboot it, I'd suggest they go full hack and slash or a beat em up. Jak should go full anime this time. He already has the super saiyan hair. Beyond that, I like your ideas. I'd just limit the guns from twelve to 6-8. Maybe scrap one of the forms? You don't need both.
I don't know, that sound like way, WAY to much fun for the new, modern and hyper-realistic Naught Dog. Also, don't forget, make sure the women in the game are attractive again. We don't want Neil ruining the game again.
I’m from the future. Jak 4 came out a few weeks ago, and Neil Druckman was the director. Spoiler Alert: Daxter gets beaten to death with a golf club by Kyra, because he was flirting with her in a disrespectful manner. Jak is also openly bisexual, btw.
Very intresting video. You need more subs with the way you edit and explain But to add on to some of your points. Daxter: I 100% agree daxter should do more stuff. Like yeah in jak 2 and 3 he was useful. Like ACTUALLY help you when your stuck. If the combo system where to be added. Maybe daxter could have the same idea with your leveling system. Like lets say daxter finally gets a small weapon for himself. And when you first play as him he starts off with the combos from jak 2, Punch and spin. But later on daxter could level up and learn new tricks since well... He is really fighting this time and if this is added in my idea it could bring out some 2 player coop which would be a nice touch. Friendship: Near the end of your video, You said something about really having there friendship to be tested. This i really love, In some shows and movies the two main characters sometimes get into a agure and they say they don't need each other. So maybe for Jak and daxter they agure and they spit up. Leaveing you to decied who do you wanna play for a small bit of the game. If you pick daxter his missions will be like jaks however much harder since well. He is not as strong as jak which will be fun to test your skills with daxter. If you pick jak, The levels will play pertty much the same thing. Just without daxter helping you out if your stuck or getting into places only daxter could go too. Leaveing you to puzzle solve without your ottsel friend help. Near the end the two bois decied they do need each other and they rally back up and work together again. TLF: LET ME EXPLAIN!! IF. and i say IF!! if TLF is cannon in naughty dogs eyes. They gotta redsign dark daxter a whole lot. And bloody explain how?! He got hit with dark eco TWICE first time he became an ottsel/precursor. And the next he got a dark form?! They better explain it and give a redsign. Anyway back to the IF. if they say its cannon. Maybe if you saved dark jak and dark daxter meter max. Maybe there can be a combo move something like team blast in sonic heroes. Where it kills everything on screan and it drains both dark jak and dark daxter. Hope you like my add ons and good luck with
Lmao love the sonic heroes reference. I like your ideas too bro, just gotta get more happening with the other dude in the duo. I reckon daxter should get hit with dark eco a third time and turn into knuckles from sonic boom.
@@tacode And watch them not expain it lol. For real though IF TLF is cannon they could at least explain how the hell daxter became dark. And watch this. Jak gets hit with dark eco again and becomes a precursor lol
I feel like adding more GUN GAMEPLAY/MECHANICS would seriously hurt Jaks Melee/Eco combat. After Jak 1 they removed Electricity and Fireball eco to replace it with Dark eco and light eco. Maybe they should have a system where if all eco is gathered for whatever reason then he gets ultimate powers from electric, fireball, dark and light eco. I do like how you said having dark eco effecting your weapons would be cool (But I want good reasoning behind it like certain guns can drain dark eco from you to use that power). I would like a more Jak 1 take for the next Jak 4 game but everything about Jak 2 and 3 and even X would still be good choices to bring over to Jak 4. Don't remove JAKS roll i love it so much! One thing I really want though is Jak 1 Style Soundtrack for Jak 4.
I like your ideas as well. While I don't think that they'd go the full Jak 1 approach anymore, the world and gameplay would I think be a homage to that era at the very least. And yeah it'd be a given that amping up your guns with dark eco would drain the your eco bar. But the cool ultimate form would be nice to see, I guess it'd be like he's finally mastered all eco.
Really awesome video mate! You especially got me with: Then Jak 3 came along and said: "That's nice, but have you heard about Jesus" and then racing happened! While I agree with some of your points, I am a firm believer that more is not always better and thus a new Jak game should stick to its core concepts and build on top of the basic movement set, light and dark jak, guns (though reiterating the gun mods would be preferable as Jak III had too many, without any specific usecases) and racing. The Jak games have always been about colorful characters which I believe should be the focus of the sequel as well. Personally I'd love to explore Kras city from Jak X from a third person perspective amongst other locations such as Spargus and Haven. From a story wise perspective utilizing the concepts of sages would be a clever idea, having them work with the Precursors bring back eco to the world. Throw in a couple of bad guys and loose gun type of characters and you'd have a blast. If we should aim to drive a wedge between Jak and Daxter we should have the option to play as both on their own and together. The moveset for Daxter was already created in his own game, so there's no reason not to reuse at least some of it. Seperate the characters because of their differences, have them join up again with a touching reunion, where they both act eager to see the other, but brush it off in a cool guy way, because that's in tone with the series in my opinion : )
Firstly, the entire Jak trilogy are objectively openworld games, though TPL has the most dated one; it's basically a glorified hub with no loading screens, since it doesn't follow the conventional/modernized formula of returning to hubs throughout the story. Now, the wide openworld approach is the more generic and criticized style of openworld games, so that might not be best for Jak. The platforming could also live up to its criticism this time around that Jak II (and even J3) was wrongly attacked for having little of, due to the massive open-space, especially if the "sub" levels don't emphasis the platforming as they do in the trilogy. Fairly big hubs in games are already common in not having much platforming, as the sub levels specialize in that gameplay department, so a LoZ:BotW hub would really be changing the Jak formula, in a direction that people don't want. Alright, so the gameplay section and video as a whole is actually lazy, insufficient, and disappointing. Your editing and humor (mostly) is on point, so it's a shame the execution in other areas isn't too good. You should have really turned this into a 20min+ video with indepth explanations on the various areas of game design. Otherwise, your video title is overly ambitious and underserving of the title.
I appreciate the criticism. Either way I just want something new/different with a possible new title. I know my opinion is a bit jarring to what jak is and what fans want, but my taste has changed and you're entitled to your taste too. And yeah I didn't spend much time on the vid to get it out on a weekly schedule which hurt the video in total, so I'm slowing down a bit to spend more time on future stuff. In the end I just wanna make stuff that's entertaining and fun to make and doing deep dives on things gets a bit draining, so I'm mostly here just to make fun of myself and the games I like.
So in summary, take away all the tenets of the Jak and Daxter series, and replace them with all the common design tropes of modern videogames which people are already sick of? There's a lot of good comedy, but I'm not sure this is improving or fixing the series as much as detracting from what made the series so popular in the first place
Just to be clear, I know the eggs are already 'currency', but the secrets in the pause menu don't count, and i wanna buy important shit with it, like taco bell
I love this game, cool to see how many people loved this game as part of their childhood
So... if we're making the gameplay similar to DMC, I'd love to see Dark Jak work similar to a Devil Trigger.
Excellent video my guy, I always love seeing people's takes on how they would do a new Jak and Daxter game. You definitely posed some great ideas, and has got my brain ticking as well. I hope to maybe see more Jak content from you!
Thanks dude! I appreciate the comment coming from a fellow Jak veteran. And I'm always down to hear new ideas for the series too.
I hope Naughty Car Jak-ing uses some of these ideas
You forgot making the game way easier - that waterslums mission in Jak 2 still has me scarred for life
Only the strongest can survive
Cool opinions, bro.

Dude how the hell do you not have more subscribers? This content rocks!
hold on...that guy in 2004 has a Thor Ragnarok poster behind him... Thor Ragnarok was released in 2017... something doesn't add up here I reckon...

I think yout video has really intersting ideas. I really like it and i hope you keep making vídeos.
Thank you dude, really appreciate it! I hope I keep making stuff too 😛
