Jak and Daxter Time Travel theory

Alright. For a long time, Jak and Daxter has had plotholes and mysteries without answers. One being the time travel mechanic involving Jak 2 and the impact it had on Jak 1. Please know this is pure speculation using stuff we know in-game.

Okay, so we know Samos was responsible for sending the Kid (Young Jak) back in time. Question is how did he know about the machine? Well, he knew about the Metal Heads already as at the beginning of Jak 2 he says "So this is how it happened" when the Rift Gate opened. But he didn't how they got there. I can safely say the Precursor Ring is how the Metal Heads got through.

Something must've activated it in the original past, you know before Samos time traveled. My guess being the original Mar or a descendant. Onto how the Green Eco Sage knew about the Time Machine...is that he been there beforehand. Before taking young Jak.

I think it was on accident when Haven City was fully invaded by the Metalheads. He could've been looking for a safe hiding place only to stumble upon the time machine and get sent back in time. This is when he came across the original Mar.

From here, I believe not only did he trace Mar's bloodline in his current (unaltered) time period but also had him send Samos back imwo years before the Metalheads took over the city. Two years is enough to plan what would be Jak and Daxter the Precursor Legacy. To lead his past self into finding the time machine. Taking Young Jak back in time and allow him to become old enough to do the Trials of Manhood which rewards the Precursor Stone in return.

He had to do go back to the point when Mar is dead though. Reason being Jak is Mar's descendant meaning he can manipulate all forms of Eco. A glaring detail that would bring suspicion as channelers especially ones like Mar and Jak are extremely rare.

Then Keira is born. Samos loves his daughter dearly and that love would repeat these very events to cement her existence. Cause remember if he didn't go back in time, Keira wouldn't be born.

In my personal opinion, I think Samos needed to go back alone once everything was said in done. Young Jak isn't a fixed point in time. Gol and Maia would've been foiled by the Hero in Rock Village if Jak wasn't there to begin with. Thanks to Samos' meddling, the original past was completely rewritten as long as Jak is there.

Samos is a fixed point cause Keira was born. Jak never left a big enough impact that requires him to go back. Other people would've filled their original role without him. Hell, the Sage could even help said people if needed.

I can't forget about Daxter either. Breaking the rules of time travel will cause anomalies but also ways to fix the situation. Gol and Maia's corruption might've been a result of Samos' plan. If not...Daxter's birth is the time stream trying to fix itself.

Jak NEEDED Daxter throughout the Precursor Legacy especially since his moveset revolved around the ottsel's help. Especially when Daxter had to help Jak in the last dungeon. Their powerful friendship helped things move along even further.

What I'm saying is Samos' actions set off huge ripples in time. Rewriting past events with Jak's presence in that time period. Like someone said 'Heroes aren't meant to be happy. Their job is to make the people they protect happy.'

This is my personal opinion though but Jak really got screwed over.

"An Ottsel? He's supposed to be dead!"

Sir Daniel Fortesque, but instead of the arrow killing him, it pushes him into a vat of Dark Eco instead.

I was playing both MediEvil and Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy at the same time when my brain was like "you know what would be funny".

I'm replaying a game I haven't touched since I was eight and I'm a little shocked to find out that Daxter was Just Always Like That, even in the E10-rated game.
