The lore provided by the strange man so absolutely mind blowing

[professorxavier]

I knew where the letter was hidden but I didn't know about the carving and the camper, which made this mystery a lot more interesting. Thank you for the amazing content!

[FryingPan]

Maybe the real gold was the Braithwaite family members we killed along the way.

[elitegamer]

So, what you're telling me, is that for almost 100 years, these 2 families have been fighting over gold that had already been spent? That's ironic.

[theshark]

It’s amazing you were able to solve this mystery, one of the things that gets players scratching their heads the most

[fmx]

So you're telling me that, throughout all of chapter 3, Dutch had us searching for gold that hadn't existed for 91 years? What a waste of time. He got Sean killed going for this gold that had been gone for nearly a century!

[StuartLugsden]

*John after going through Arthur's satchel after his death and discovering the Braithwaite document and discovering that he discovered there was no gold for them to find and that he knew that Sean died for nothing and didn't think to tell anyone* : 🗿

[pedroga]

Strange man, you literally make my days better with your awesome vid, you're the best rdr2 youtuber by all means, keep on the good work!!!

[DunceTree]

First off, I would like to thank you for exploring this story. Its always fascinated me, and I legit had no idea about the letter and the story of lucille and douglas. I just thought the Braithwaite syory ended once the house burns down and you find the gold bar....boy was I wrong. Thank you.
I also just want to say ive been a big fan for years, and i am incredibly impressed and happy with how far youve come. You also havent succomed to relentless click bait or excessive adds and I just really, really appreciate it; especially with how hard you work. Your videos are ALWAYS high quality and entertaining no matter how big or small the mystery. I somehow still learn something new about the games despite the fact ive spent 300+ hours with multiple saves and playthroughs after watching a vid of yours. Its always a treat when I get the notifaction of one of your vids. Thank you for your hard, dedicated and passionate work you do for the fans of this amazing game.

[abhinavsharma]

The fact that you solved this mystery is mind blowing. I thought that there wasn't much content left (for you to solve) in rdr2. Cheers bro.

[simple-commentator-not-rea]

I found that letter LONG before even realizing that players actually believed the treasure can be found, I even assumed the Gold bar you get from the manor ruins was part of that treasure. What I DIDN'T know until watching this video was the part about the message on the tree and the guy telling the story at his camp. Not surprised since those unique camp encounters are FREAKING impossible to spawn. Only ones I ever got was the creepy perv stalking Mrs Balfour, and a trapper talking about how he's eager to hunt one of the legendary cougars. In the previous game, these unique NPC camp interactions were practically thrown at you, what am I doing wrong here?

[zombiedog]

I knew most of this story, but I never knew about the Graves in Rhodes. It makes this story so much more tragic because Lucille and Douglas likely got caught stealing the gold, and killed as a result. Great video as always!!

[ThatGuy-juvj]

Great work as always! No clickbaiter or regular YouTube would've found the location like you!

[AlexGTAgamer]

After all this time I never knew about the tree carving. But also as has already been mentioned in the comment section, after Braithwate Manor is burned down and the lock box under the Manor is revealed, I always thought that that solitary gold bar was all that was left from the gold stash.

[grieferjesus]

FINALLY I know what's the story is behind that damn gold

[alenaduplantier]

Strange man iam really amazed on how much detailed and accurate you analyze this game to the point people doubting if your an employee of the rockstar games company

[yograndpafortoday]

I have to say that this is the most underrated rockstar game related channel

[JoMcD]

I was so close. I found a pamphlet at Copperhead Landing for shotgun shells. Couldn't remember what the camper said about the carving though. Saw someone else searching for the treasure there too, had a unique conductor hat and was dressed in all white.

[Beaver_Monday]

Bruh. I never once imagined there was even an in-game answer to the gold mystery because the story went in a completely different direction. The level of worldbuilding in this game is nuts. Excellent content.

[sylvestercharpentier]

my mind is beyond blown, i never actually thought that the disappearance of the gold would actually be revealed somehow in the games, and ive had it for about 2 years now thats why i love this channel
