So since I got on today it went from 97 to 98%. I really feel like today is the day. (Sorry for the picture quality, too lazy to do screenshot lol)

Round 2. So I dont want to claim I've solved anything. Im just discussing the possibility that the map is a giant xenomorph head. Probably the biggest connection to the chiliad mystery. But let's discuss that. What is the chiliad mystery? Is it the webs? The bigger Easter eggs? The meaning behind the murals? Well i think that depends on one's perspective (Reference to the Yellow DD mural). I think the map as a whole is the biggest egg. As it says at the camp of bums in the game, "Some people look left, some people look right but the answer is right in front of us." The map is literally in front of us. If we go by what the Drunken Dev says, anyone can solve it. If the mystery was intended to be solved then we shouldn't have to codewalk or do things not everyone can do. The answer isnt in the game files, its the map. All over the map are xenomorph eggs. The aliens that attack and abduct Michael are literally Temu xenomorphs. They are shooting Alien at the very beginning of the game when Franklin and Lamar steal the car. There are many references, we could probably go all day. People claim the map is Alfred Hitchcock, but did Rockstar ever come out and say that's the case or acknowledge it. 🤔 nope. So my theory is that The chilliad mystery is just a nod to the Alien movies. Smaller nods to other pop culture curiosities, but i think it's a bigger nod to Alien. The map is right in front of us, the Xenomorph has been there since the beginning of the game. You can literally go back to the start and see it. Even the chiliad mural shows it, aliens, xenomorph eggs and ripleys mech suit (not a jetpack.) Lol But let's discuss it and tell me why it's not a good theory.

Have you ever stopped to look at the map and think it looks like a giant head? Me, I see Homer Simpson. But if I squint my eyes and tilt my head, it looks kinda like an alien head from the game. Just wondering if i was the only one.

So i feel like with all the drops of the artwork from GTA6, its safe to say GTAVII will be in Las Venturas. If we look at Cal Hamptons tattoos, he has a pair of dice that add up to 7, a show girl, and an alien wearing a human face. If Rockstar follows their trends, this is where it will be. But what do you think?

I remember a while back somebody posted about the different "Lens Flares" for our 3 protagonist. I think it was like Michael's was an eye, Trevor's was a compass, and Franklins was a clock. I've seen it before in game and thought, yeah that's kinda cool. Im not sure if it was the same post that mentioned something about the Altruist camp and all the paintings around it and someone suggested something along the lines of giving thanks to the sun, doing yoga, and Karma compasses and whatnot. There was a lot going on at the time. Well today I decided I was going to give thanks to the sun as each character at the alter of the camp.

While I was on the way up there, I got to thinking about this whole spider web mystery that seems to be plaguing us right now and how it could relate to anything. It's a stretch but hear me out. Im not looking for webs, but how everything in this game is connected. The mysteries, the characters, everything. How characters interact with each other and the environment. The choices that we have to make through the game, ect. Someone recently suggested the golden path playthrough where basically you have to make certain choices to maybe unlock another step or something.

Well I'm not going to do all that because even if it was a possibility, where do you start? Well I started with the flares. I could drag this out longer but im not going to. I dont have any valid theories or much to offer that hasn't been discovered. But what i did find is that every character in the game has their own lens flare. I stopped time at almost noon and assumed the position. I will try to get all the pictures in the post. Im not smart enough to make any connections with any of it nor do I have the patience to pursue any one theory, but do with them what you will. Sorry for the novel. Enjoy and happy hunting.

So I like reading all the theories everyone has come up with and how far they go to try and solve all these mysteries. Some are a stretch but a lot seem feasible. I want to throw a random one out there and see what everyone thinks. Looking back at the mural, this image caught my attention. I feel like I've seen it before. I know its a phrenology head but the outline reminds me of a place I've been to on the map. Due to being in a tornado today, I wasn't able to search for long before the power went out. But I spent at least an hour searching for similar shapes from a birds eye view as well as the map. For me it feels like a stretch but I was wondering if anyone else gets the feeling like they've seen this outline on the map. Maybe not the whole head, but definitely the brain part. I dont know if it's ever been looked at from that angle but I thought I'd throw it out there to give another perspective as well as hear what everyone else thinks.

Please delete if this breaks rules. So, im not too into the mysteries but I do believe that all Rockstar games are connected, whether it's easter eggs or actual tie-ins. One thing I've not really ever heard mentioned is how games like Bully or Manhunt relates to GTA and RDR. Maybe that Carcer City exists and they share things like Sprunk and whatnot but that's it. That being said, I've heard of Rockstar placing easter eggs about later games in the ones they've made. I've never played Manhunt so I thought I'd check it out and in the tutorial I see this van and find it ironic. I can't be the only person who thinks it's related right? So my question to all Rockstar communities in all games and genres is, "IS IT AN EGG??" (Sorry about the picture quality)
