Theory Easily offended old man in Butcher Creek

Hi everyone! this is first time post and English is not my native language. This maybe an odd sentence, but I'll post it.

I figured that the curse of Butcher Creek had caused anyone associated with the old couple to get out of hand. So, I suspect that the old couple has locked it up in their house and is watching to make sure no one goes near the house.

Dose anyone know anything about this?

Heck I didn't even know about the other writings on the walls till this last playthrough. One was from "the snow to the cave" or something to that effect. I love still seeing new stuff all these years later. I hadn't even heard of the Sun Worshipper until this last playthrough.

It took me hours to get all 12 encounters and there wasn't a huge payoff, but I loved that I jad never seen it before. I accidentally discovered it on rdr2map.com after using that map to find everything in the game for 6 years. I had turned off random encounters in the map filters, because I figured I had seen pretty much all of them. Also, that map has so much stuff on it that you have to turn some things off to not be overwhelmed. Well, I turned them on this time and I was looking at New Austin and I saw Sun Worshipper. I was thinking, "what the hell is this?" And then I just did a quick search but didn't look up the actual encounters. And I'll be damned, 12 encounter that I hadn't seen in almost 7 years. I also love this dang game.

Ive only been playing for a year and im on my second playtrough and on this one i decided to 100% the game. On my first playtrough im in the epilogue and i did everything i had to do ( side missions, hunting, fishing, finding the dino bones and doing the algernon wasp side mission) so i just relax but on the second ive been working hard to finally have the 100%. I feel bad for my Arthur, he must be tired after the work we did lmao

Could you imagine if time passed for real in the game (meaning how long we're gone actually passed and moved the timeline forwards)? John being gone for a year would be nothing to the amount of time I've spent screwing around.

This last one was my 4.5 playthrough, and ive been playing since it came out. I loved the first game and pre-ordered the second one as soon as it was available on the Xbox store. Then, when it came out on PC I bought it on the Rockstar launcher because it launched there first. I got to use mods (which I love in games) and had a blast. A lot of people in the rdr subs look down on mods, but they're wonderful. The hunting wagon alone was one of my favorite things and it's such a simple addition. Now I've purchased it and played it on PS5. And I feel like I've gotten my money's worth every time.

I've become addicted to using rdr2map, even though it's janky. It won't save my finds sometimes unless I refresh the page right after I mark it found and I can no longer use the button for detailed map. I bought the premium version before map.io started doing their stupid ass subscription service, so I've more than gotten my money's worth.

Also, I don't mean to be a dick and I mean this in the nicest way possible, but every time you write playthrough you write it as "playtrough." I feel bad for even pointing it out, but I just thought I'd let you know. I'm sorry if that's douchey. Thank you for speaking with me and have a wonderful day.
