far more important people than me
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
mysterious videogame characters do I
look like a monster to you for this list
we’ll be taking a look at all the
videogame characters that remain an
enigma to us even today
will only be ranking one character per
franchise I know man but that sings
number 10 the Phantom Phoenix Wright Ace
Attorney dual destinies
this international spy works under the
motto of don’t-ask don’t-tell not much
is known about this elusive criminal
other than the fact that he’s considered
extremely dangerous and will stop at
nothing to retain his anonymity
able to disguise himself as virtually
anyone the Phantom is also highly adept
at deception so much so that it’s
believed his true identity is unknown
even to himself what he does understand
is the impending danger he’ll find
himself in if his identity is uncovered
making it his greatest and possibly his
only fear number nine the stranger The
Walking Dead Season one do you know who
I am
in the zombie apocalypse before ending
shady characters like this guy is a big
no-no not much is known about this
unhinged man however he clearly harbors
animosity towards Lee’s group and a
strange fixation on one of their
youngest followers Clementine I bet you
don’t even know how old she is she’s
eight wrong she’s nine but her birthday
was six days ago it’s later revealed
that his dementia was inadvertently
caused by the actions of Lee’s group
we’re not gonna go into full details
here but just know that in a zombie
apocalypse everything has dire
consequences
you’re a monster you’re a murderer and a
thief and I’m gonna hurt you so bad
number eight cue Street Fighter 3 third
strike
we’ve heard of keeping your opponent
guessing but this character seems to
take this a bit too far this street
fighter combatant has seemingly morphed
his way into the character selection
menu without so much as a word cues
metal face and trenchcoat outfit only
adds to his mystifying aura as do his
peculiar movement and fighting patterns
he’s also been inexplicably linked with
a number of murders and unsolved
mysteries making his appearances that
much more chilling number 7 the strange
man Red Dead Redemption what’s your name
you know it’s the darndest thing I can’t
remember you may not know much about him
but he sure as hell knows a lot about
you this aspect is perhaps the most
mysterious thing about the strange man
and also the most unsettling hello John
John Marston do I know you
I hope so I seem to know you
the gentleman’s refined sense of style
does nothing to help define his identity
and neither does his cryptic style
speech but the various tasks he sets for
John have all appeared to test the ex
gangsters morality code friend of mine
he’s drunk as a skunk in the saloon on
thieves landing I think he’s gonna be
unfaithful to his dear wife why don’t
you head over there and see if you can
advise him how best to proceed due to
his elusive nature it’s often speculated
that the strange man is some kind of
higher being or is that just what he
wants us to think
see you around cowboy damn you yes many
have
number six the happy mask salesman The
Legend of Zelda Majora’s Mask
this peddler provides an assortment of
strange and mystical masks however the
most peculiar one is the mask he wears
everyday don’t be fooled by the
salesman’s welcoming appearance as his
bipolar nature causes him to erratically
lash out at anytime
the masks he collects are definitely
disturbing but not knowing how he
collects them may be even worse
considering he’s the one that teaches
link the song of healing a song that
turns dead spirits or those dying into
masks the thought of how he comes into
possession of most of his collection
makes his appearance all the more
worrisome number 5 the elusive man the
Mass Effect series the loose of men I
thought we’d be meeting face to face
unnecessary precaution not unusual for
people who know what you and I know the
most enigmatic character in this sci-fi
series must have an equally enigmatic
name the elusive man is leader of
Cerberus a human survivalist
organization his history and true
intentions are unknown but it soon
becomes evident that he’s in his
position only to push his own agenda the
next thing I know you’ll be wanting to
grow your own Reaper my goal is to save
humanity from the Reapers at any cost
I’ve never hidden that from you this
truth begins to blur the line between
friend and foe making the elusive man
well more elusive it also doesn’t help
that his eyes have been replaced with
steely blue prosthetics giving the
Cerberus leader an almost inhuman look
you think because I’m willing to use the
enemy’s tactics that they’re no longer
my enemy everything Shepard everything
I’ve done has uplifted you man
not only above other species in our
galaxy but over the Reapers number four
the merchant resident evil 4 got
something that might interest you one
can never be too prepared when embarking
on a top-secret mission in a desolate
European village appearing at random the
merchant provides Leon Kennedy with his
most essential equipment weapons and
ammo
yet his off-putting demeanor doesn’t
help distinguish him much from the
various infected residents of the rural
area his identity and supplier are both
anonymous but in cases such as these
it’s best to not even ask yeah thank you
number 3 the loot s twins BioShock
Infinite heads or tails there are those
that operate from the shadows and then
there are these two that operate from
different dimensions Robert and Rosalynn
decide to pose as twins after they
discovered they’re actually the same
person from alternate dimensions bird or
the cage or perhaps the bird nothing
beats the cage is to it their expertise
in quantum physics has granted them the
power to manipulate tears in the
universe leading them to devise a plan
to alter their unfavorable future with
their dialogue almost as cryptic as
their random appearances the twins act
as Booker’s escort through Columbia
while covertly dictating the players
every move the notes were correct the
instrument was not one needs both to get
his attention but if you know how to
sing to him he will take you where you
need to go number 2 gigas earthbound
villains come in many forms in
role-playing games but to this day we’re
still not sure what this one is said to
be the embodiment of all evil Gaga’s
uses his malicious powers to sentence
all living things to a doomed existence
the final confrontation with this being
is the most unnerving as his
unrecognizable attacks and erratic
speech patterns only aid in confusing
the player more in the end gaagaa says
only weakness proved to be a human
emotion which makes you wonder what you
are truly fighting
before we unveil our top pick here are
some honorable mentions one shudders to
imagine what inhuman thoughts lie behind
that mask
dreams of crowning can sustain
No
and too late I thought I can get here in
time thought I could stop you
your previous work can help you I still
have some pages of your manuscript left
words like that have power here number
one the g-men the half-life series the
right man in the wrong place can make
all the difference in the world the
half-life series focuses a lot on the
mysteries regarding alien dimensions and
right in the middle of the
interdimensional conflict is this
mysterious figure I realize this moment
may not be the most convenient for a
heart-to-heart but I had to wait until
your friends and where otherwise
occupied the g-man appears to lead
researcher gordon freeman through every
step of his travels between worlds and
at many times seems to possibly be
following you he drops hints that he
answers to an unseen higher authority
yet his movements seem to imply that he
works as an independent party his
identity motive and abilities are all
about his enigmatic as half-life 3 s
release date relay these words prepare
for unforeseen consequences

videogame character do you find the most
mysterious rather than offer you the
