What's up folks, sorry once again for the relative silence. Took a break throughout most of December/January due to the winter season getting to me, but I am proud to announce that I've begun work on ERA 9 and it is quite close to completion :). It's estimated to be about as long as ERA 8, so well over an hour. You can expect to be able to watch it in full around early/mid April. A 12 minute snippet is available on patreon.com/tharixer
Once ERA 9 is completed I will create one more video that I'm calling the "Supercut" where I will be stitching all 9 ERA's together into one seamless video with some small corrections, editing fixes and a new intro. After that I will begin working on brand new videos.
I've been asked whether or not I'm going to continue with a possible ERA X and beyond and my answer to that is no. When I started making this series, I knew I wanted to start from the beginning and I had a clear ending in mind too, regardless of new records being set. As much as I love the Jak & Daxter games, I also want to work on new projects too. This has been my life's magnum opus and It's gonna feel incredible that I'm finally gonna finish it after working on it for about 2.5 years.
I understand that some of you guys might be upset that I chose to spend so much time talking about one game, and I hear you. It's super selfish lol.. But Jak 3 is my main game. There's no other game I could cover on this channel that would be a more authentic and accurate telling of the events that followed. I care about speedrunning but to me its so much more. The comradery, the failure, the triumph. It makes it so much more interesting to me. And I've been able to express those emotions more than ever, through these 9 videos. And this final part in the series is the very best one I've made.
Thanks everyone for sticking with me and being patient. I never forget you guys exist.
