9 Video Game Good Guys You Knew Were Villains All Along - Commenter Edition

7. Mark Jefferson - Life Is Strange

There’s always something a tiny bit sketchy about a teacher who is way too nice and that’s Blackwell Academy photography teacher Mark Jefferson to a tee.

You’d be smart to be suspicious of this otherwise unassuming dude because he’s potentially one of the worst people in video games. We of course need to spoil the end of Life Is Strange here so big spoiler warning for you if you don’t want to know what happens. At the end of the game you slowly realise that the cool dude teacher is actually the game’s main antagonist who has been using his charm and stature to kidnap, assault, and kill students of Blackwell Academy. If you got the creep vibes early from him being way too nice to you this reveal late in the game probably wasn’t too much of a surprise.

While some players were totally blindsided by Jefferson going full evil, those who have learned to be suspicious around anybody acting way too nice were tipped off early that all was not as it appeared.
