>the R&C reimagining
I wouldn't include any R&C game 3 after except Size Matters as a 3D platformer, they go full shooter from Deadlocked onward and I remember that being true of the reimagining also.
>Jak 1 in top tier
>Jak 2 and 3 in low tier
I'm glad others share my opinion on that, the later Jak games are just fucking jank and not all that fun. I wish ND went with their original plan for Jak 2 instead of, by their own admission, copying GTA3.
The only other disagreements I'd have are the placements of some Sonic and Mario games, Crash 1 being in Mid Tier, and DK64 being in anything other than Low Tier.

ESL anon, if you ever struggle with English, just use DeepL.
On an earlier note, I decided to make my own R&C list. I struggled figuring out where they should all go and if you asked me on another day the list would probably look different. You could flip the Great and Good tiers and I'd probably still agree with it.
<Why is the original not higher?
The controls, honestly. That's it. The combat feels too awkward in the original and reportedly some of the game's original designers think the same thing, which is why the reimagining completely overhauled the combat.
<Why are 3 and Into The Nexus not higher?
Nexus, while great, is far too short and 3 struggles with whether it wants to be a 3D action platformer or a multiplayer shooter. The level design is much simpler than the previous 2 and you have to do very mid 2000s "stand here and guard the thing/destroy the thing/kill the swarm" missions. 4 figured out what it wanted to be and stuck to it much better.
<Why isn't Size Matters lower
Despite all the shit it gets, Size Matters is fine. I'd argue Booty and the reimagining are possibly better games outright, but more fundamentally flawed. With the exception of the combat the reimagining is largely a worse version of the original and Booty feels like a prototype for ACiT mechanics. Size Matters is just trying to be a bite sized R&C game which it succeeds at in my opinion. Same for Nexus, but it does that much better.
<Where is Rift Apart
I
haven't played that one yet.
