I beat Night in the Woods, don't know if I feel like talking about it (spoilers)

I actually think it felt fairly natural. People are going missing, people are being killed (a literal arm is found), and yet... Nobody really seems to care. It feels like stuff like that has been going on for awhile, yet Possum Springs either is part of it or is turning a blind eye to it because people don't want to know/don't care/whatever. Mae basically discovers that she DOES care, which is as much of a shock to the system as sudden death cult is. So while it's obviously less natural just to the simple fact that... Yeah, death cult, it fits with the story being told.
