The blue sage cutscene skip is a cutscene skip in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy that opens the portal in the blue sage's hut without having to watch the cutscene.
Tutorial
Technical
Opening the portal in the blue sage's hut will cause three events to happen:
- The zoomer will spawn at Precursor Basin
- Flut Flut will spawn in Boggy Swamp
- Keira will move the boulder once you bring her 45 power cells
By performing a pause buffer before opening the portal in the blue sage's hut, the cutscene will attempt to play but will be interrupted by the pause menu appearing. From here, the player can save and load. The cutscene that was just "skipped" is actually queued to play once Jak is within a certain radius around the hut. Instead, doing another pause buffer will allow Jak to walk towards Precursor Basin without having to watch the queued cutscene. And since the portal was opened, the 3 events listed above will be active.
Full Skip
Although the cutscene is not fully skipped in the most commonly used method, there is a way to skip it entirely.
Discovery
Blue sage cutscene skip was a collaborative effort by Sultra, blahpy, and Kuitar.
Other Notes
headstrong claims that she was taught the original partial skip by Sultra through word of mouth, and that there was no video of the skip originally, which makes Sultra's WR the earliest known footage of the skip. (December 16, 2014)
Since the cutscene "bubble" can be avoided easily after activation, the full Blue Sage's hut cutscene skip found little use as it was slower than partial versions of the skip once Pause Buffers were implemented. (May 28, 2015)
