Hope you are having a nice time at PAX. I don't suppose you'd ever consider playing Golden Sun: The Lost Age? It's a direct continuation of Golden Sun ... the same way that LOTR Return of the King is a direct continuation of Fellowship of the Ring and Two Towers. In fact, your GS save file transfers over to The Lost Age, too. It's essentially Golden Sun but just better (and less end game grinding, too).

I wouldn't. Jirard is very positive, but, personally? Jak II and III occupy that same awkward artistic realm as Shadow the Hedgehog or Vexx. Where they're self-consciously way EDGIER than a normal platformer or furry series, but not in any way where they pierce through to actual maturity, like, for recent examples in both descriptions, Psychonauts 2 or Fuga: Melodies of Steel.

Jak is super game series. I got Jak 2 first, and then accidentally got the 1st game second, because I got worried that I would miss the 3rd game. These games really shaped my taste for drama and comedy, with seeing Fullmetal alchemist around the same time built-up the tension that lead me towards anime. I have to say that there isn't anything else like these two. Maybe one or two close ones, but the tension in those media still let it take shape in different from. Jak games had that certain comfyness with sense of urgency with its own spice.

Ah, I miss Jak & Daxter. It was one of the first games I felt compelled to complete personally on my own not only because I enjoyed it but because I wanted to and once I learned secret endings were attached to completing them then of course I had to do it. Fun fact, for those who may have never played the series before. The ending of the very first Jak & Daxter if you didn't complete it was cut shorter where as completing it extended it and ultimately became the teaser/start for Jak 2 basically though it wasn't completely clear. In short you were rewarded for completion but in Jak 3 while I believe that's still ultimately true (it's been years so forgive me if I'm wrong and misremembering that) that might have changed because it was supposed to be the last game in the series core story over all. As a result I believe the main reason why there hasn't really been new games is because Jak3 mostly wrapped up the story with the other games being more spin-off like, where are they now after stuff over all. So unless they add on to the story with a new storyline and or new possible main characters to continue on from it, a Reboot/Remake/Reimagining would be the only way we would probably get a series revival and that's with enough public interest as well to make NaughtyDog feel it's worth it to revive the series in some form.
