I wouldn't call it a bad game, but it is definitely my least favourite game of the series, I only finished it because I wanted to see the story and refused to admit that I couldn't beat the game. But overall I agree with you, the vehicle handling is terrible, enemy patrols are a huge pain in the butt, if you accidentally hit them during a timed mission then you're pretty much fucked, and there are these long missions where if you die you'll have to start all the way from beginning.

Still, if you do have time I'd suggest you to give Jak 3 a try, it fixed almost all the problems that I had with Jak 2, the vehicle control is much better and the missions are quite interesting imo, it's actually my favourite game of the series even after the bad time I had with the second one.


Is Jak 3 more like the first one or is it just a playable version of 2?

I really want to finish Jak 2 before I move on but it's just too painful.

it is the same style as 2 (open world & guns), but I like it alot, in some way it strikes me like GTA meets Disney in a desert setting, and  the cars are actually cars, not broken ass hovering bikes that would explode and kill you the moment you hit something.

As for Jak 2 it gets worse as you progress, there are some good cutscenes and solid platforming sections, but if you're already struggling then the lack of checkpoints in some of the later missions would drive you insane, maybe you should consider give youtube a try.
