This is the truth.
I like 2 for what it did differently but i think this is a franchise which got worse with each release

I'M GONNA SHIT ON THAT FUCKING NIGGER PRAXIS

What i want to know is did the story of Jak 2 onwards(Haven City,Metal Heads, Ottsel precursors, Dark Makers etc.) even have any drafts or any planning ahead before shipping TPL? Its such a dramatic shift in tone and direction that I find it hard to believe the series was thought out at all ahead of the first game.
I also like 2 despite its maze-like half-baked city and lack of explanation between 1 and 2.

>Heavily fortified Haven City with no precursor silos or other TPL landmarks in sight and a large human population that came from...?
Wasn't it also implied Haven was the last human city too before Jak X?
Daniel King
I don't think so, TPL ending was really open and could have been anything.
About Haven i think it was just the only known city, after all no one even knew about spargus

How did they get away with this?

The only game I actually replay is Precursor Legacy. I drop Jak 2 in the first few hours and I don't replay Jak 3 since I don't replay Jak 2.
