I've just always assumed that Samos asked this guy to pretend to be Jak's uncle to help keep the ruse up. Maybe the Uncle is the one who actually raised Jak, and he just casually encouraged him to hang out with Samos.

When Jak’s uncle referred to daxter as the “miserably ugly one” he was speaking about daxter without knowing that he was an otsel. He was talking about how daxter looked as a human, and didn’t know that daxter was standing right there in front of him (at the beginning of tpl).

rlly gonna ignore the fact the two father figures of the game are called 'Samos' and 'Damos'

My father was “part of a *family* “ and since he was part of it that meant I had a lot of “Uncles” like Uncle Vinny, Uncle Paulie and Uncle Tony they weren’t my Dad’s brothers but they acted like it. So in the case of Jak’s “Uncle” I think the relationship was imposed instead of inherited.

Actually, when the Uncle was calling Daxter ugly he was referring to his "human" form.

I like the idea that The Explorer is an ancestor to Jak. The Uncle just helped raise Jak, and got the "title" of Uncle, like how you address your elders "Yes, Uncle." and "No, Auntie". It just happen to bee that the uncle IS an ancestor to Jak, unknowingly to all. During his last journey, after getting the orbs from Jak, the metalheads attacked and The Uncle choose to stay in a remote safe village near to where he explored and stared a family with some lovely woman he met.

Truly was Interested as a kid back then.

Uncle is usually given to someone who helps the family but isn't an actual family member. I personally think this was blown out of proportion and he is simply a family friend uncle.

I always saw it as the man who adopted Jak, Samos, sorry don't know how to spell, needed someone to help raise Jak while he was becoming a Sage so he found someone who was perfect, so his uncle adopted Jak and raised him along side Samos

Let's look at this "The Uncle" could have just been a place holder for a friend or someone to look up to.

I don’t know too much about the lore of Jak but have played the games. I thought Mar(original Jak) had fought endlessly in the war against the metal heads and devised a plan to get his past self to end it once and for all. Lead them to the discovery of the portal and started their journey to destroy the dark ship from the ending to Jak 1 to 3.

@phantom8346

Same, as to make sure we’re both thinking the same thing. Original Jak, no going into the future, is mar that furthered technology mined for eco and so when he was told of the coming darkness (dark ship) in x years, so him and the house of mar readed the world to prepare against metal heads but are losing (gap between 1 and 2) (solving the whole jak is mar, house of mar, tombs and whole technological advancements using lurkers as workers to build all these places). But issue being that how did original young jak get to the past to become mar. Well my answer is that Samos Damos and (old lady forgot her name onin?) figure out that through original mar lineage is all super precursory and to save the egg and young jak (young mar) by sending them to the pass with a protector (Samos). Leading to the jak we know in the first game causing the events in the second game and saving the world in the third

3:59 I mean it's still most likely a simple retcon

Jak 1 is a collage of old myths and legends combined into one story. Just like dbz, Naruto, evangelion, etc. What was behind the Exit door (pagemaster) wasn't exactly known until they did the kyle reese/future trunks story of Jak 2

Wait, what if they are biologically connected, but not in a close way, I mean like his great great uncle. What if at the time when Samos traveled to the past found that the explorer had something that was evidently from the Mar house? He could even be his great great great grandparent. Then it could be that, in order to hide the fact that jak was from the past, Samos told the explorer that he was Jak's uncle.

I didn’t know The explorer is Jak’s uncle Until this video

Many people call their adoptive/foster parents uncles and aunties. So maybe he just took Jack in after Samos had Keira and had to focus od raising her as well. Maybe he was the first friend Samos made in the past and told him the truth and they shared raising Jak between eachother. In case something happened to Samos Jak would still have one person keeping an eye on him and takig care.

Many cultures call non family members Uncle / Aunty out of respect, so I always thought it was that

I never looked into any theories about Jak's uncle. I thought he is just a character in TPL to show some of Jak's family during the game and then became a plot hole once Jak 2 and 3 happened, just like Keira lol

Hmmm well the rift gate/rider that Samos and Jak used was located at Gol and Mayas citadel, which was pretty far from Sandover village. What if when Jak and Samos went back to the past, the ended up at the end area of the first game, and the Explorer was the one who guided and protected them back to Sandover, spurring Samos to have him in such a critical role for Jaks development

After comparing the physical traits of the two, I don't personally believe they are related and are brothers by blood. Unless one of them got more genes from one of the mother and the other got more from the father. Which is common to happen. Then again, white hair and blue eyes are just few steps off from blonde hair and green eyes. So it's still in the realm of possibility and I just go with the flow at this point.

Vivi: 300 years is plenty amount of time for someone's family lineage Yeah, cuz there isn't a game series with an even longer family lineage.

I always thought the green cane gem was a crystalized form of green eco since hes an explorer and old, and collects eco, thought it was just tool for survival.

Damus is 500 years old Meme comment aside its fascinating that the lore has so many unpolished ends but so much intrigue that people keep theorizing.

10:49 now hold on, he was describing human daxter here, he didn't realize that daxter had been transformed. Granted, he probably would have reacted to an ottzel being on jaks shoulder...

first, your mother's brothers are also uncles, not just dads brothers :/ either way, I agree with the common assumption that "uncle" is just a really common term of endearment for an older person who isn't necessarily related to you. In the first game I did assume he had a familial connection to Jak, which is helped by their similar colour schemes, but from the second game onwards I just assumed he'd partially helped raise or teach Jak since he's an explorer (I can't see Samos being the one to give Jak his flair for adventure given the way he tells them not to go to Misty Island). I think it was probably lightly retconned after the first game, since IMO it doesn't even really need explanation. I think the devs trust us to make some logical conclusions now and then without having to outright explain, especially since he's such a minor character anyway. I do like the potential theories though that he had something to do with the precursors, and maybe this was just dropped in favour of other story lines or just something left in to potentially explore that just didn't get picked up or was maybe never intended to, since some mysteries in a game are fun. Also, one thing I think is maybe a small correction - when his uncle calls Daxter "you know, the little annoying miserably ugly one", he does it in a way that shows he doesn't know Daxter is in the room. He is talking about pre-ottsel Daxter, since he doesn't know that Daxter has been changed and is the rodent in his house. So regardless of whether he knew what a precursor looked like, the comment wouldn't be about them anyway (instead it would be whether he recognises ottsel-Daxter as being a precursor, which he doesn't). I would also explain that away however by saying the Precursors didn't readily reveal themselves to be ottsels, so he might've never seen their real form.

The real question is how can Kiera be Samos biological daughter if she is only 1 year younger than Jak? Biggest mistery in the Jak and Daxter series, that or a huge plot hole caused by Jak 1 and 2 lack of planned connection.

There's so much unexplored stuff in world of Jak and Daxter. I mean, the Metal Heads are actually an alien race that rules over most of the known universe, after winning a great war against the Precursors (which caused the destruction of their society and near extinction). We know that the Dark Makers were corrupted by dark eco, but what about the Metal Heads? They need dark eco to survive and are essentially cyborgs. What makes this all the more interesting, is that the Precursors stated, that all eco contains their "essence"; does that mean they made the metal heads? It would have been interesting to see them continue this story...

I wish we can Reboot Jak and Daxter by focusing on the precursor culture arc and we still have the characters from Jak 2 and 3 be in the culture as well. Sly Cooper is good for now, but we need improvements on character development and backstories. I would have Insomniac Games and Bluepoint Games developing the Sly Cooper Reboot Game with the Spider-Man PS4 Combat and Open-World Formula and remake Sly Cooper 1, 2, and 3 in the animation render of sly 4 along with Ghostbot Inc. When we get a Jak and Daxter Reboot Game while we are only in the precursor culture arc, we should use the God of War 2018 PS4 Game Formula.

We never met Jak's Mother. It's possible the Uncle is Jak's maternal uncle (Jak's mother's brother). I wouldn't rule out the Explorer being a time traveler.

Even as a kid I kinda felt like he was just his close friend, not Uncle

I will note this, when Jak's Uncle insults daxter and calls him small and miserably ugly, he's actuallu refering to Daxter as of he was not in the room because he doesn't recognize him in that form. When he calls him small annoying and miserably ugly, he is definitely takking about his human form.

Jak's uncle then taking him in and giving Jak his love for exploring. And Im gonna assume him disappearing isnt something bigger than "he's only gone for a couple days/months and the only reason he "disappears" is cause the metalheads destroy the world shortly after he leaves anyways. I have doubts he ever knew anything more.

If we were to think of a theory... I think he's just someone related to the excuse of Green sages appearance and Jaks adoption. Otherwise Jak doesn't know where he comes from, doesn't know it's literally out of nowhere. They also needed a person to look after Jak when Samos was busy and they also need someone to inspire Jak to become the person he is in the future. Like, it's if they put Jak in a family tree to seem as if he is the same as all the other kids, since he has blonde hair and green eyes. It wouldn't be a stretch to think he found Jak and Samos on his adventures and brought them back to Sandover with him unknowing of their travels from the future. I think that specific precursor projection was made simply so it can go back in time to put itself in the precursor egg, in order to relay a message to Jak. I think his mental health is just old age. I think his Staff is a relic, but I don't think it influences him as much as how young the world of Jak and Daxter was new to explore back then. I'm sure he wanted the precursor orbs so that he could go on another adventure, so he went off to adventure again. Simply gone while his home was overrun by Metal Heads. He could even be one of the people who survived and helped in the beginning of the first colony that fought the Metal Heads when Mar appeared. But otherwise, I think he's some normal dude, and by the time of Jak 2 he's simply dead.

@@VtnVivi lots of ideas. I've been thinking maybe its more of a chrysalis than an egg. however From what it seems its basically just a special type of eco crystal, maybe its just a holding cell for the energy stage of its life cycle. Or, maybe it comes out small and feeds off of eco like metal head eggs and then hatches with some kind of trigger or signal?

as to make sure we’re both thinking the same thing. Original Jak, no going into the future, is the mar that furthered technology mined for eco and so when he was told of the coming darkness (dark maker ship) in x years, so him and the house of mar (friends and family, young onin, Samos (from first game) and all those people) readed the world to prepare against the metal heads but aren’t prepared enough (war between 1 and 2, built haven mar died, son Damos whose son is mar, overthrown by praxis creating the Jak 2 world) (solving the whole jak is mar, house of mar, tombs and whole technological advancements using lurkers as workers to build all these places). But issue being that how did original young jak get to the past to become mar. Well my answer is that Samos, Damos and onin figure out that the mar lineage is all super precursory and special they find the portal and to save the egg and young jak (young mar) they send them to the pass with a protector (Young Samos whom they find in jak 2)(this is because Samos in the start of 2 answers himself with so this is how it happened. How what? How old Samos got to the future) Leading to the jak we know in the first game causing the events in the second game and saving the world in the third, creating all these time travel things. And after the metal head leader in the first timeline found out about the portal killed everyone and everything, so when the “last rift gate has been opened” he can come through and keep it out of mar’s hands, and in so doing dies trying to go through one more time to fix his mistakes causing his odd decapitation in the boss fight.

That’s what I thought had always been the story I had no idea that it was so heavily debated. I’m sorry but youtube has a bad commenting system on phone so I did link my discord to answer other questions people may have. FYI I only played the games 1-3 are the games I consider canon and all things that happen during

he has Jaks haircolour and clothes so they might be related tho

I thought he was only called uncle because jak would look up to him when he was a kid and listen to all of his stories, I didnt think he was actually related to jak since they share no resemblance apart from the clothes similar to jak and that could've just been because jak saw him as a role model as a child and liked to dress similar to him
