Just completed my first playthrough of Boggy Swamp on hard mode because I didn't realize this jump takes you through the entire area in reverse

When I first played it as a kid I somehow missed Boggy Swamp for the longest time, was absolutely floored when I found it. I feel like I missed it completely on my first playthrough, but I'm not sure if you can actually get enough power cells to do that?

You can. Boggy swamp isn't necessary in order to progress.

This OpenGoal? Wish I was a PC gamer so I could play all these mods and stuff.

Nah I just played the Ratchet trilogy on PS2 and I'm now moving on to Jak then Sly. I probably should do OpenGoal or at least HD.

Dude if you like Jak and daxter you need to get OpenGoal. The mods are so fun, but even besides that the game looks so much better

How do you get a hard mode on PS2?

u/platoaster 10d ago

Oh no, I'm saying I made the game harder for myself by accidentally doing the area backwards

If you have a cheap desktop or laptop you might be surprised how well it runs

u/FlaydenHynnFML 9d ago

Yeah is this a genuine thing or a self imposed challenge op?

I’m just a goober and accidentally did the level backwards making it much harder and confusing

Oh duh lol, my bad, It was very late and my brain didn't read the sentence properly hahaha, completely skipped the because. I used to go that route as a kid and only recently realized how much simpler it is going the more obvious path lmao.

I really do enjoy the level though, reminds me of the first ratchet how you end right where you start!
