10 DISTURBING Strangers Discovered in Open World Games 

The fact that you were able to compile this list without mentioning RDR2 is a true testament to the quality of your content!

Mr. Blue Eyes is an enigma, even to us _deep_ in the Cyberpunk lore. Even knowing he's just a video game character comprised of a bunch of 1's and 0's, the guy still creeps me out

Delilah was a 90’s low level Spidey villain that worked for different crime bosses throughout various comics. Never really a huge character.

Hi Falcon, it's Folks 🤙

Dude, I played Cyberpunk 2077 for a combined 300+ hours on PS5 and PC and I didn't even know about Mr. Blue-Eyes...

Mr. Blue Eyes is super fascinating cos it’s thought a lot of what happens in Cyberounk even the smallest side quests. He’s involved in somehow, likes he’s been pulling the strings the whole time. Hopefully in the next game CDPR give us more info/interactions with him cos some quests were left off on a cliff hanger.

I appreciate you guys always clearly defining your segments so i can skip spoilers easily. Small touch 👌🏾😌

I love the Ghost girls in Pokemon, the fact that they're just there and their existence is never explained leaving everything to speculation is part of thw charm of the world of Pokemon

04:55 "No that's all I have to say besides, and I mean this: Moo" - Strange Ox 😂😂😂😂😂

I've heard of Mr Blue Eyes a couple times and I've seen people draw comparisons to the Illusive Man from the Mass Effect games. Both were a suit, have an enormous amount of wealth from some unknown interest, and are both very mysterious characters in their respective lore. Definitely an interesting character

I never noticed Mr Blue Eyes in Cyberpunk 2077, that means he's really good at his job, which is actually disturbing

Sonny from RDR2. I've never felt so violated

(Cyberpunk) You also meet the blue eyed man. When you do the Sun and don’t fear the reaper endings of the game.

Thank you gameranx for always posting videos. You guys have been my go to place for ANYTHING gaming related.

Thanks for a great topic!

The style they were going for in the spider-man 2 clip i believe was supposed to be the “Spider-Man” game from the PlayStation 1 era, so if she appears in the third film there a chance we could get a visit to that dimension which would be really cool to see a modern day take on the PS1 graphics

The dumbest thing about the evermean trees is that they are clearly deciduous. The pun does not even make sense.

The serial killer random encounter in GTA IV was super strange and creepy.

I hear you with the evermeans. First encounter, the only thought in my head was "I'm flurry rushing a tree??!! WHY AM I FLURRY RUSHING A TREE??!! WHAT??!!"

One of the cool things about great open world games is finding the unexpected thus encouraging exploration.

One of the theories roaming around on the internet is that Mister Blue Eyes is also Morgan Blackhand. Other than Adam Smasher and Johnny Silverhand, Rouge, and the other OG heroes of Cyberpunk RPG's original line up before 2077, Morgan Blackhand was a legendary Solo. The thing is... he dissappeared. He's mentioned in the game, idly by Jackie and a few others, but the game otherwise does NOT reference what happened to the guy. It's a strong assumption that Morgan is Mister Blue Eyes. On the mission with the Paralleses, IF... you unlock your movement (PC Only and with cheats) and you get nice up and front with the guy, you can find some interesting details, like the ring he wears is the same ring that many of the monks who are praying before those 4-armed statues that were a part of the long-running ERG also wear. There's something deeper here, and CDPR hasn't said a single thing about it.

love all your vids gameranx

You guys' output is insane. Idk how you do it but we appreciate it!

Vids with scary content is the best.

The guy with an axe in his head and didn’t know it in ac Valhalla freaked me out lol

You guys are so amazing fr and if this was an easier thing to do you guys would be the reason I would do it

Great video man 👍

Stranger Disturbing Danger. Even in videos. Great video. 😊

Gameranx always on time for my lunch break baby ❤❤❤❤

The Mathers family on monarch in The Outer Worlds is especially creepy if you aren’t familiar with Braxton Hecht’s quest when you find them

Fully expected Gaunter O'Dimm from Witcher 3 to make an appearance here. The dude was so scary and weird

The disturbing thing in a game is a bug that destroy your save game

Lol great video theme!

How about funniest headcanons in gaming I got one that says what if the Arkham City thug who says “I’d even give Bludhaven a shot” is the same guy in Arkham Knight who says “Nightwing’s in town? I left Bludhaven to get away from him”

Mr. Blue Eyes reminds me so much of The Illusive Man from Mass Effect I cant unsee it

"I guess who do anything thought, right?" May be my favorite Falcon joke, so subtle and effective

Mr. Blue Eyes is a AI from beyond the black wall that took over a human body. Like the soul killer. It controls most of Night City's upper echelon.

Banishers is such a cool game, (though, Vampyr is their best game). I hope DontNod never gets sucked up and spit out by companies like Embracer, Microsoft, etc. I want these guys to keep making unique, weird, artistic AA Games forever

Damn Never saw that detail in cyberpunk 🤯🤯

Good list!

letss goo falcon uploaded

“You’re also probably correct…whatever it is you’re thinking” Lmao

The spider man 2 is a reference to the bar with no name

The spiderbot guy looks like they were modeled with RuneScapes engine 🤣

Honestly if there's a disturbing character from Open World games that should be here is definitely the "Mysterious Stranger" from the Red Dead Redemption games. Honestly there is so much to unpack with his character and to this day nobody agrees with who or what he is or what he's representing.

Whoa, ok that Fall Out one felt way too weird 😐

I know my day has gotten better when Gameranx drop a vid ❤

That Evermean Tree thing reminds me of the time my character got punted by a tree in a TTRPG. We were playing this game called Anima and we were in this old ruins that had some trees in it. Well one of the trees was kind of like a guard dog that only attacked the particular race I was playing. It didn't escalate into a full fight but needless to say my character wasn't happy getting kicked by a tree about 40 feet.

The scariest tree to ever attack me was in Don’t Starve. I’ll never forget this one late night, I’m just chopping trees for wood and then suddenly one springs to life and chases me through the night endlessly. That was truly terrifying.

The collector in Star Field was a trip.

"I've been looking for you. Got something I'm supposed to deliver - your hands only."

The Elden Ring guy reminds me of Arondil from Skyrim. Arondil is even more creepy since he made ghosts AND draugr to "sleep" with.

I like the Spider-Verse thing because the multiverse truly is a thing that connects each and every single Spider-Man continuity there is.

Haha was not expecting to see Limmy 😆

For the Spider-Man 2 reference, could that be an alternate version of Madame Web???

awesome video as always!

In pokemon sword and shield theres a girl in the mushroom town that stares at a wall and when you ask her about it she says some like "im talking to my friend" or somethin creepy like that

Hope everyone has a great day

You might have missed this but in assassin’s creed Valhalla there is this random location on the map, with no quest tied to it and there lives a guy who calls himself a “monk” who’s all about controlling his anger, but if you poke around his shack and break the crates that he’s baiting you to break (because he says he won’t get angry) and get into his shed you’ll discover his murder den, and he’ll attack you

Wish you would put a label to what game it is at the time in these types of video's. It is very easy to miss and a PITA to have to scroll back to find when exactly you mention it...

You can also see Mr. Blue Eyes through a brief second when boarding the metro with Songbird going to the spaceshipship

A more messed up NPC from Banishers is Jacob Lynde. He (accidentally) killed his friend, then (not accidentally) ATE HIM!!!

Surprised that you didn't mention that it's revealed the Evermean's in Tears of The Kingdom are Yiga Clan members disguised as trees.

Disturbing characters randomly out in the open world are the bane of my existence (The Jedi Survivor guy got me very bad)

Tingle - Legend of Zelda

The dude in Skellige in Witcher 3, for the Side quest Shock Therapy. The silent druid Egill I think, where he swears you off with the middle finger after you give him a scare.

Yo, what about Cicero from Skyrim? Meeting him happenstance outside Whiterun and then that eventually leading to the mass slaughter of royals (and the assassins, themselves), and you have to course-correct to control the brotherhood so it doesn't fully implode. Shit's *wild*

The Ox turns into an apple to travel with you in your inventory

When I first came across those Evermeans in Tears of the Kingdom, I freaked out but then I remembered that I have an axe with me so I use it to defeat them. Now whenever I come across Evermean I'm less scared and more annoyed like I had to chop them up again. Of course this isn't the first time I had to fight against a tree in a video game, it would be Kirby and the Amazing Mirror when I had to fight Whispy Woods. The Evermeans kind of remind me of Whispy Woods except they can move.

Was not expecting to see Limmy in this video 😂

Uncovering that sister in Dragon's Dogma 2 was nuts!

I found a hidden zombie on my way to the coastal town in an underground storage area in DD2, i had no idea there was a quest related to it though

I didn’t knew I was being watched the this blue eyes guy in Cyberpunk. I did wanted to know about the group that was controlling all the things in the background on politicians but it left on a cliffhanger. I didn’t know this guy was just standing right there and watching me lol

Mr. Blue Eyes hires you for a job in the best ending of the game.

It's Funny Miguel was mentioned in Spider man 2, but has yet to appear in any of the mainline Spider games as a character rather than a cosmetic

I remember when I first played Dragon Age: Origins when I ventured into the Brecillian Forest to recruit the elf’s into my army. As I went deeper I saw these odd looking trees called Sylvans, and Holy crap, was I creeped out by them suddenly attacking not just by one, but two of them at the same time! And boy, did they do damage too, especially on Nightmare… my whole team was wiped out in mere seconds and I too would have been killed if I had not the foresight to make a fuck load of health potions! Those things were were the worst. Oh and the Broodmother also scared the crap out of me too! (Shivers) 😨

“I guess why do anything, right?” Mother fuckin Falcon

You can give Seluvius' potion to the Dungeater. Which unlocks Dungeater Puppet Ashes to use.

No.7 took pages out of LOTROs (lord of the rings online) books with the ents, still hate that damn forest to this day

I have finished DMC 5 and I love Donte

Hum... so by the Dragon's Dogma character we can maybe be looking at Falcon's appearence! Is it like him ?

The delilah one wasnt disturbing to me as it was confusing. Also i think they were going for the classic tomb raider look

You forgot to mention _the_ Mysterious Stranger!

How did you not mention "The Loathsome Dung-Eater" from Elden Ring??

Nice video

Everytime I see that png of falcon, I want them to color in that missing part of his head above the eye lol. He's just missing a chunk of his head XD

I'm honestly very surprised that red dead2 didn't make it on this list with all random events you can see you can find some incredibly disturbing strangers in the open world

Boy let me tell you the guttural scream I let out when I encountered my first evermean. I will not forget.

“Now that’s all I have to say besides and I really mean this…”

wait the card minigame of final fantasy vii rebirth had this...wow, amazing

Was thinking the whole time the "strange man" from RDR2 would be number 1.

The "Tengu" from Ghost of Tsushima is a fairly freaky character. The game is mostly grounded in realism, barring the usual artistic flair to make the story and gameplay feel like a samurai film, but then you have this so-called Tengu Demon that shows up in one of the game's optional side quests. In it, you learn of a longbow that belonged to a legendary samurai who supposedly slew a Tengu, which is a Japanese demon that takes on a birdlike form, and supposedly the samurai became cursed and saw other people as demons, and began attacking at random. When you begin following the quest to find the bow, a man in a tengu mask begins stalking you and trying to warn you to stay away. Once you've tracked bow's location, you're then sucked into a strange dreamscape and forced to fight the masked man as birds swirl all around. Once you defeat him, he just vanishes, and is never mentioned again. That is, in the main game at least. In the Iki island DLC expansion, there's a scroll you can find that suggest that the man may have been a monk who was exposed to the psychedelic poison used by the expansion's main antagonist, the shaman known as the Eagle. Which in some ways makes the guy even stranger since he decides to go and protect an allegedly haunted weapon far, far away from where he lives.

Thumbnail lead me to believe we were going to learn why it was disturbing that Greg and Blessing were in Spider-man 2 lmao

The spiderman woman was a character that was cut late from spiderverse 2, and insomniac clealry found out too late.

The bovine from Baldur's Gate 3 makes me think of the talking cat from Rick amd Morty

Queen's Blood was the best mini-game in Rebirth. Howver that story they tried to tack on was just awful. It felt like the bullet points of some dev's fantasy novel, prompted into Drunk-GPT.

Should've mentiones Eddie Low from GTA 4. I know it's an older game but he seems more disturbing than most people on this list

6:19 tears of the kingdom actually uses a different engine (more similiar to splatoon 3 than botw supposedly) it's wilder that they rebuilt so much of the first game on another engine.

In reference to #9: Mother Theresa believed that suffering brought you closer to God. And that caring for those who are suffering is the next best thing. Not treating or healing them. Just caring for them as a terminal hospice. She did not attempt to provide medical aid of any kind, only treat the basic symptoms and try to make them comfortable as they die. Watching them die.

Interesting!
