The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Jak and Daxter series marked a turning point for Naughty Dog’s storytelling. Over the course of this iconic PlayStat♒ion 2 trilogy, the plot moved away from simple themes of good versus evil towards more mature and complex narratives and, of course, the characters.

As the series went on, the Jak and Daxter characters were given more and more dimensions by the writers. And yet, despite these added layers, they never stopped being exceptionally enter🎃taining and a joy to spend hours and hours with as you explored the streets of Haven City or the endless sand dunes of the Wasteland.

10 Damas

The Battle-Hardened Warlord With The Tragic Past

Damas is the hard-nosed, battle-weary leader of Spargus — the city of outcasts and the forgotten. He doesn’t have much time for the weak, which is why he’s so ke🌜en to make use of Jak’s warrior abilities at the start of the third game.

However, as the game goes on, a bond begins to form between Damas anওd Jak—a father/son type bond, you may even say. Damas’ past has a far greater affect on the overall lor☂e of the series than you originally suspect, promoting him as a hugely consequential character who is also at the centre of one of gaming’s most tear-jerking death scenes.

9 Errol / Cyber Errol 🍃

The Character Everyone Loves To Hate

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Every hero needs a good rival, and Errol fills those boots with all the snark and malice you could ask for from a character you love to hate. Errol is the commander of the Krimzon Guard in Jak 2 and spends much of the game being as much of�𝄹� a nuisance as possible.

He returns in Jak 3 as Cyber Errol and attempts to take over the world by collaborating with a menacing alien force. Even though he’s now half robot, he’s still a fully formed pain in the backs𓆉ide, which is why he endures as such a deliciously entertaining foil villain for the series.

8 Torn

Those Razor Sharp Ears Mean Business

Can you have a strong underground resistance without a leader who commits everything to the cause? Torn is determined to take back Haven City from the oppressive rule of Barron꧑ Praxis in Jak 2 and his hot-headed, no-nonsense personality i🤪s the perfect fuel to build the fire of the resistance.

He also grows to be a reliable friend of Jak and Daxter and his on-again/off-again relationship with Ashelin makes for an endearing side 𓆏romance. Every time you hear the gravelly voice of Torn in a cutscene, you know it’s going to be a memorable one.

7 Kor

A Twist Villain Done Right

When you first meet Kor in Jak 2, all yꦅou see is a kindly old man who seems genuinely concerned with helping the underground resistance. It’s a shame that, in reality, he’s actually a power-hungry monster who wants ൩nothing more than to feed off the power of the Precursor Stone.

Kor is a great twist villain because the big reveal of his malevolent nature feels both shocking and well-earned. In subsequent playthroughs, you ca💝n pick up on🧔 the bread crumbs of his true identity, showing a villain that clearly had a lot of time and care given to them by the writers.

6 Count Vegar ♍ 🍌

Be Careful What You Wish For

While Errol and Kor are great villains in their ♌own right, neither of them quite elicits the same feelings of utter disdain as Count Vegar. Vegar is a high-ranking official in Haven City who spends most of Jak 3 asserting his elitist ideals and snobbish personality in the worst places, atꦇ the worst times.

Nowhere is this more evident than during the emotional final scene between Jak and Damas. After saying a tragic goodbye, Jak is then forced to listen to Vegar’s horribly condescending remarks. Thankfully, Vegar ends up with one of the most hilarious comeuppances for any vi﷽deo game villain, cementing his place as an endlessly memorable figure of this series.

5 Samos

Every Hero Needs A Great Mentor Figure

Samos is Jak’s mentor, Keira’s father, and Daxter’s… well… he mostly just throws playful insults at Daxter. Whatever role he fulfils in the story, Samos always 𒀰leaves behind a big impressioꦜn thanks to his immense power and cheeky sense of humour.

As the green eco sage, Samos usually plays a pretty big role in the story — whether he’s trying to protect the other sages or helping to win back Haven City under the alias of 'The Shadow'. But despite his plot significance, his primary role is to help Jak navigate his destiny and fulfil his true potential. And, of course, to insult Daxter.

4 Keira

The Girl Next Door

Other than Jak, no other character in the series goes through as much development as Keira. In The Precursor Legacy, she’s a fun, flirty love interest for Jak while also being good with mechanics. However, in Jak 2, she is forced to grow꧑ up, put aside some of her idealism, and use her expertise to help the resistance take back Haven City.

If only Keira didn’t get relegated to such a background character in Jak 3, then she may have been even higher on this list. As it stands, she is a favo﷽urite among Jak and Daxter fans, and for good reason as well.

3 Ashelin

The Daughter Shall Not Carry The Sins Of The Father

Ashelin may be the daughter of one of the main villains of Jak 2, but there’s no questioning her status as one of the series’ most magnetic heroes. While she’s sometimes the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:romantic love interest of Jak or Torn, her character stan𝄹ds out for her unwavering determination and natural leadership𓆏 abilities.

Underneath all that hard exterior is a big heart that cares deeply for the wellbeing of her friends. Ashelin may not be in all the Jak and Daxter games, but her presenc𒁏e is so strong that you quickly fall in love with her.

2 Daxter

Still Great, Even After Having His Name Dropped From The Title

Daxter doesn’t grow much as a character throughout the series. Instead, the series grows around Daxter as the tone shifts to be more in line with the orange Ottsel’s snarky sense of humour and occas♊ionally mature one-liners.

And even if he is too cowardly to be the hero of the series, Daxter nails the sidekick role by always finding the humour in even the tensest of moments and providing Jak with constant emotional support. That is, until you game over, in which case Daxt🅺er will let you know exac✨tly how bad you are at video games.

1 Jak

A Hero We Deserve

Jak goes through one of the biggest transformations of any main protagonist in a video game series. He starts out as a wide-eyed 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:silent protagonist who doesn&rꦡsquo;t have many defining character traits other than🔯 being a nice guy. However, after spending years being corrupted while in prison, he emerges as a complex character who will stop at nothing to get back at those who wronged him.

And yet, even after going through this dra꧟stic change, there’s still that innocent boy deep inside who just wants to do what’s right. Jak goes on such a monumental journeꦛy and deserves to be the main hero of this series.
