Even worse is when you realize the sequel has its story changes so many times because the writers and nikita himself had no idea how the sequel would work well as a follow up to the first game. (You can see how different hello guest is with its concept, the same way that hn2 tried something different)
What sequel???
Hello guest was so disconnected from HN1 it makes me think at one point Nikita wanted the story to be not just about Theo, byt about multiple events in raven brooks, Peterson's story being just one of them.
From the alphas you can tell they still wanted to go with an original concept while also trying to make it feel like HN, but then after the alphas it just became HN1 again
Hn2 duh
Whats HN2??? Thats not a thing
It's clear that they had no idea what they wanted to do with hn after hn1
Oh yeah, nvm a fever dream of mine
Even when you try to play both of the alphas and the final release, you can see how forced the ftried to follow up to hn1 and how different and seperate hg is towards hn1. Without it even being focused as a sequel
Yes it must be cant wait for Hello Neighbor 3 prototype soon
True
So weird how they skipped HN2 maybe theyll make it later for contunuity?
I mean they kinda did, TB just fumbled the bag with HN2 after Nikita left
True
I have no clue tbh
Idek what were they trying to accomplish with hn2 after nikita left
They fumble bags in the hopes of making bags
Which always seems to not be the case as they keep going bankrupt
sigh If only that one guy that came after Nikita didn't just scrap everything for the 10000 time
Hes gonna scrap the neighbor soon š
Man i wonder why
True
Well it was because of constant change, Nikita left and Alexis stepped in, story changed, tB stepped in and tampered with the game, story changed again.
Iām hoping for Devlog 2 tomorrow š¤
me too me too me too
I have a feeling
Itll be either thursday or
Wednesday
But idk. Just a prediction
Maybe Friday?
I think itāll probably be here by Saturday
maybe not scary but errie
Itās probably coming out on the feb 10 or 15 or maybe even 20
anybody know when hn3 devlog 2 come out?

Probably at the beginning of february
Proof?
mid feb at most
No proof, it's a hope
Proof?
Proof?
Nikita said that the Devlog would come beginning of February.
and he said it got delayed
maybe the delay is longer then we think
Yeahā¦to the beginning of February.
Clearly itās taking longer than expected.
nikita never siad the date in the delay post
He literally did.
ok but beginning is in the first 2 weeks of the month
It was supposed to come January, some personal stuff happened and it got delayed to beginning of February.
we barley entered feb
No, itās the first 5 days, that would be mid to late February.
If it doesnāt come today, then itās clearly taking longer than expected.
ethier another delay or beginning means like a week
Or itās just taking longer than expected and will be a bit late.
just asked gpt and beginning of the month is in the first 10 days
I guess that works yeah.
so if nikita can do it then it will come 10th the latest
let him take his time to prepare everything
Exactly, donāt know why thereās people so stressed over the Devlog.
The longer the better it is.
yup
keyword hopefully
According to promises, the prototype should come out good, but I donāt have hopes for the third part and the prototype, but itās still very interesting to see what comes of it. After all, I liked the alphas of part 2, but unfortunately nothing made it into the release
Nothing is a promise, anything can change, the prototype is an internal build for the developers and isnāt confirmed to be publicly released.
the bar is as low as possible
Again itās an internal build itās not even a game, you shouldnāt have hopes for it.
Nikita said heād show off and explain the prototype in Devlog 2.
i am patiently awaiting the day the Hello Neighbor loop repeats, so far it happened twice
you're right, it's a prototype and not an alpha
hell yeah :>
Not even a prototype for public, itās an internal one, completely meant for the developers to test stuff.
Yup š„
I didn't think it'd be public
I just wanna see it :>
Itās not meant to be for public but Nikita said he would release it possibly.
Same.
oh, what?
Yeah, he said he really wants people to get their hands on it.
My hopes were high cause those nikita prototypes in the one devlog were some fire stuff
He said āShareā he means in Devlog, which the Devlog still needs to be finished.
the time travel housefire one was sick as hell
Itās still up to him to release it or not.
He said he took some AI ideas from that.
do not worry .
Iām not worried at all.
Iāll be patient for the Devlog.
I agree, but I also canāt close my eyes to how part 2 turned out. Iām just expressing my concern that the third part will follow the same path
:>
Understandable.
As long as some form of hn3 is great, i'll be happy
i expect the alphas to be some great, amazing stuff, n the fullgame to be incredibly mediocre as usual
Remember though, the game is only at prototype, itās not even at a pre-alpha level, ANYTHING is subject to change at this moment, Nikita even said that the prototype is a shadow of a shadow of the game they are making.
Tbf HN1 is the only game where the alphas are subjectively better, HN2 FG is better than the alphas in every way except for maybe AI.
i'll be honest the mere existence of the guest might be clouding my judgement of hn2 alpha 1/1.5
His AI is way cooler in the FG though, even if he doesnāt do as much.
Still way more unique.
Than a normal house AI.
i've played hn2 and i swear the guest is like non-existant
should I replay it??
Wdym? When did you last play it?
Brotherā¦
the guest was added in november 2023
WHERE
please inform me
i love the guest
Replay the game, go to the bridge and through there you will find the forest section.
Heās apart of the side quest.
Yeah.
Yeah.
hn2s only sidequest in the main story*
Well, there are others.
But they are basic.
Like tapes, or the fountain.
The second part is an excellent game if a person did not follow the promises that the developers made. For example, a raven or a storm and also a park was promised a long time ago. Even after the release of the second part, devlog 3 was released and they promised a continuation of the plot and then we just got Halloween DLC in the form of a forest.
Due to it being canceled for HN3.
Yes unfortunately
HN2 is one of the only HN games that stayed by its roots and made it a stealth sandbox, even if not perfectly balanced.
Btw, youāll find a hammer in the forest that you can use to board up doors and build platforms.
Yeah?
I fr thought he was lying about boarding things up
This was the teaser trailer: https://youtu.be/0Jz-RfgfL_w?si=xtIs__X7kTbKBnR2
The Guest also got a redesign.
I was wondering where people were getting the new guest image from
I liked the guest even in the redesign and wanted us to see him in the second part for more than 40 minutes
Its quite difficult to beat this section if you do not know what you are doing
Hereās the one of the official trailer: https://youtu.be/jpDGiDpXL8I?si=gOIVcK0IecmJeTzl
If you go down to the woods today, youāre in for a big surprise, and maybe even an unexpected Guest, as Patch 9 has landed on Xbox and PlayStation!
š³Visit a whole new area - the forest located on the outskirts of Raven Brooks. Trees, nature, birds, what more could you want?
šÆļøExplore the church and adjoining graveyard! Looks a bit dilapidated...
But itās not even known whether he will be there
I hope he still has the cape.
He will.
Nikita confirmed.
Alex confirmed it a day before hn3 got announced
Yes? Well then okay
Also announcing a ton of info about hn3
So will Mr. Peterson.
We got some of his concept art.
Donāt have it though.
It's a shame that the second part was supposed to belong to the guest but everything went differently
Actually he was never the main antagonist it was always Ted (Mr. Peterson).
He could be dead
Due to "the raven brooks disaster novel"
But we have no clue as to when hn3 happens
So we do not know if its before or after the novel
teddy pete
probably after gn2, cuz face
But first there was a hello guest with a raven and then two alphas. I want to see his story, because Iāve gotten really tired of my neighbor over the last 8 years
Move away, then
he was the same person as the neighbor = guest in hello guest, and in hn2 alphas he was lost and our main character came to rb to save him
Maybe so, but we will never know (unless they tell us this in part 3)
Thatās why Iām hoping for The Guest to get his spotlight in HN3.
I gtg
literally from what they said and from what we see in the game the story is like this in hn2 alphas
of course, more specific and detailed
praying that devlog 2 is today

I hope that in part 3 we will interact more with the guest or with new characters (not like a policeman or a mayor, because they are just models on the same AI)
do not tell this user that guest derived from the same ai in hn2
Yes, thatās true, but for example in alphas he flew at fire extinguishers, jumped high and generally looked like an animal
and his sounds are just something
I hope, REALLY, i tired to wait every day
just give them time bro
Well, the taxidermist also knows how to shoot and set traps. Therefore, he at least stands out in some way
Guys, this channel is exclusive to HN3, so that our devs can see and answer your questions, please keep the channel focused.
i hope the second devlog of hello neighbor 3 realese tomorrow or friday
i just got 4 pings from this server i got very exited for a second
Aleksander asked a hope back on ways to show characters your friendly and etc.
switchman cool
part 3? you mean hn3?
yeah
oh
we probably will get more interactions
hn3 feels like what hn2 alpha 2 was gonna be (excluding the fact that hn2a2 was unplayable)
3 like the number 3 as in hn3 and season 3 the third neighbor game 3
3
Hear me out
Instead of hello neighbor 3 they call it hello neighbor third
Think about it for 2 minutes
Excuse me 3 minutes
hello third neighbor
hii
nah
I think this game would be even better, if it was continued from when ||The detective in HN 2 gets hit at the end.|| - (Spoiler don't read if you haven't completed HN 2), and revealing who did it.
Not sure if that was already planned or not. ^
No it wasn't?
Yes Nikita did say the guest wasn't supposed to be the main antagonist but he's obviously talking about the forest protectors
I mean the "How is your weather" thing was referring to the mayak and the cult, so it's probably them
its alr revealed
Is it?
As I don't know what hit him, and I just replayed the game today.
But, I think its likely the shadow figure from Hn1.
its a cultist
the shadow aka the thing is just a representation of the traumas of the main character in hn1
Oh, following all the cultist outfits.
So, Mr Peterson aka the neighbour, was involved in an cult that would keep all his secrets.
no
Guessing the it was either the mayor, the baker or the taxidator.
But likely the mayor as there was an outfit in his house.
in fact, he is kinda enemy to cult
Oh.
But he had the same outfits in his house, as the mayor.
And the large one in his attic also.
*a museum whose keys were stolen by cultists
So, will HN3 follow the same sort of path, the fact that they are going to have many neighbours.
All leading to the main one, or sort of the fact that they are all hiding something.
although taxidermist aka mr otto is not a member of cult, he serves them.
there are many neighbors, but this time some of them can be your friends
and now many of them are entering each other's homes
No?
So instead of them being your foe, they can help you.
It wouldn't of just been that.
yes, it depends on your interactions with them
But like, leading from that event onwards.
You mean after Quentin gets hit in the head?
Yes.
That's literally just patch 10
We want something new not the same thing over and over
yeah thats canned act 2/3 of hn2
The continuation of the HN2 ending
It was supposed to have the catacombs, crowman shelter, ruined town and the forest/church
was a story and content expansion that was canceled and would have brought Act 2 and Act 3 to hn2
Ok, I wasn't aware that existed.
But all that got canned
Oh.
Patch 10 is cancelled
Yes we do
It was supposed to be a cultist
a cultist but we can't say anyone specific
That knocks Quentin out
don't think so
ted does not work with the cultists
No
Theo hates the cultists
Why would he hit them on the head otherwise?
quentin learned a lot thing about them
Oh.
Because Quentin was trying to fund what he wasn't supposed to
like missing journalist
The cult kills anyone that gets too close to the truth
a journalist before quentin, he probably suffered the same fate as Quentin
Ah, so he was likely killed.
Yep thats the most likely assumption
Quentin is just dead basically
But then Hn3 is going to be about the neighbourhood now, seeing as the neighbour has probably escaped.
actually
HN3 takes place many years after HN2
years passed
New characters, new neighbours talking about quite a few years later raven books even more abandoned.
Likely after act 3
Yeah
The neighbor and the guest is still in the game
Is this the last HN game?
There will be probably more spinoffs
in the background there was hn1 remake
Cause, he looks like he is getting quite old, as he was relatively slower in HN 2 compared to 1.
But i don't think we're getting something like a HN4 (please god no)
but will be reviewed after HN3
I mean I'd be happy to.
They are great games.
I wouldn't, like, we're quite literally in the future and the neighbor is getting older and older
But maybe just like extension packs for the 3rd version, like the 2nd version
I don't want them to drag the story
and if it happens don't let it be the fourth try at making that game that was supposed to be hello neighbor one
NO
releasing an unfinished game would be the worst mistake to make again
No, a full game but more things you can have to experiment with the characters.
HN3 already has that
not necessary
You can basically do anything with the NPCs
i mean, hn3 is a game with replayability according to its current concept
Like, you can be their friends, enemies
You can have relationships with them
Also a job or smth
they also said that they have plans for free play after hn3 story mode
Who is that tall person you can see in the distance, an friend or an enemy?
shrug
Wasn't that in Hn2 also, sort of?
We don't know
yea, but a more lively and interactive freeplay than hn2
Also, like i said no one will striaght up be aggresive or friendly like in HN2, that will depend on your relationship with them
Maybe freeplay, where you can be the enemy and have people breaking into your house, would take a lot of extra coding, etc
For example, if you bring a cake to an NPC they will likely start liking you and become your friend
So, everyone can be your friend, or your foe?
But if you steal someone they will not like your
Yes, everything depends on your actions
i don't think so about that, After all, vandals will harm you anyway as long as you are not a vandal yourself
I mean yeah not everyone will straight up be friendly
The Guest is obviously aggresive
The Guest is obviously aggresive
The neighbor too
And probably vandals
Ah, as Alex said everything can be changed.
Yes, everything is subject to changes
Só don't expect anything to be final
Is he on this server?
yep
Yes obviously
the guy nicknamed grandeturisto
Isn't he the CEO of tinybuild?
He talks in here frequently
its alex
is loafKatat subject to change
So who is Nikita in the tinybuild hierachy?
Nikita is the creator of the franchise
Oh.
he just made hello neighbor but he doesnt have much authority in regards to tinybuild
So, tinybuild just work with him?
Nikita works on Eerie Guest Studios whcih is owned by tinybuilds
the ceo of tB is alex
the lead game designer of EGS & Creator of franchise & the guy who films devlogs
is nikita
Tinybuilds are the publishers and owners, Eerie Guest is the one that makes the games
Ok.
yeah, just hn3
which i still think is kinda dumb
not sure why some random guy who doesnt even talk to the community is franchise lead
True
Ig tinybuilds are the ones that decide
yeah mike is a member of tB, hes not a dev
Yes i am
Please tinybuilds don't give me the guest treatment
Iāve misspelled your name twice
loafkatat
Guys, as I've asked before, please focus on HN3, and please avoid talking about people.
hi
Hello
Bringing cake to an NPC would be legendary. I like to piss NPC's off a lot so I'll probably judg shove it in they're face.
Do it!
Ngl tho, It probably won't let me. Who thinks Hello Neighbor 3 will release in late 2026 or early 2027?
Also, could someone send me an image of the fir extinguisher model? I'm making a compilation of all the HN3 leaks to keep up to date and I just need that one last one.
Thanks
It must out today, or tomorrow, or next week, probably before sunday or at sunday
(devlog 2)
Prototype is what I'm interested in
Me too, im waiting devlog 2 for it
Type shit
Oh, okay, i don't know..
Does anyone know if hell neighbor 3 will have some sort of multiplayer aspect?
Like online multiplayer
considering it started as a multiplayer game and then was stripped of said functions to be a better experience i would say no
I really hope that the raven in hn3 will be like this or similar to this
And also the question is, will I be able to see the raven in the prototype or will there be other characters shown earlier?
Only three characters
Jacob
Iris
Signed
Do you have any photos of them?
You can see them in #work-in-progress and the hn3 steam page
Thank you, I just saw them before, but I absolutely didnāt know that they were called that
Hmmm, so HN3 can have some sort of simulation aspect going on? Imagine if the characters had the same level of AI details as in Shadows of Doubt.
its fanmade if you dont know
Yes, I know that. And I said that I want him to look at least a little bit like this
will be different from the original concept, especially the face
This is understandable, but there is hope that he will remain as scary as in the fan version
Is this fan made or not
Fan made?
yes
š¶ interesting
and so scary
Is this fan made to?
i dont really know,but i saw many guys sayin that this is fanmade
theres a concept art that we cannot see
You can see whether an image is real or fanmade on hello neighbor's wiki gg page.
Or you can go to the #work-in-progress channel.
same, it WILL be out by this week tho
not confirmed
yeah
but
fingers crossed
not too excited though
keeping my hype low
Yay!
possibility
devlog is probably being filmed rn
but nikita said an eta is by this week
yeah
im wondering where nikita will be this time
cause
devlog 1: forest
devlog 1.5: house and forest
but yeah
I hope Nikita says more about hn3 in devlog 2.
hn3 is hype
devlog 1.5 ended it with hn2
the rest will be hn3 devlogs
he will show more about hn3
If devlog hadn't worked on 1.5, devlog 2 would have come early.
devlog 1.5 was very bad
yes but with less content
unfortunately yes
devlog 2 should be out this week. I can't wait anymore.
Ok Thanks
hi
Hi
We donāt know
coned?
Maybe
because we see him pointing at smt or someone in his consept art
so hes directing someone
That makes sense
yeah and some people think that since covered has roller scates maybe she/he moves faster then other vandals
btw
who is that tall dude in the hn3 logo pic in steam?
Maybe leader of vandals
or guest
No
who knows maybe he had a growth spurt
or the villain?
cause i think neighbor is not da villain in hn3
i dont think so...
its only been 2 months since the start of production
i mean prototype
yeah but its not gonna be public to us
if it only took 2 months
it would be sooo buggy
and incomplete
it will be a public playtest
really?
yep
that is the first time they done that
2 months is not a short time for a prototype
and prototype is done, waiting for devlog 2
wow cant wait
||Of course, if we don't include AAA games||
will it be out in steam or a arcive web?
steam
web archive is a non-original source that tB does not recommend using
Nice cause those webs sometimes have viruses on some downloads
since this playtest will be incomplete will nikita update it to complete the Prototype
Has Nikita confirmed for it to be released?
yep
yes
When?
.
That means so many things, it could definitely mean the prototype being released, but he didnāt say āPrototype we are planning to release is readyā he said āShareā it could very well align with what he said about sharing as much about the prototype in Devlog 2.
He hasnāt fully confirmed it being released, all he said was itās finished to share, which could mean different things.
Though Iād be happy if it did mean that.
yo!! whats the latest news about all this?
well, why would they prepare an ending for a prototype that will not be released but will only be talked about
Again, they even have a placeholder story, but itās still as Nikita confirmed an internal build meant for the developers to test stuff, and yet it has a placeholder story.
why "sort of" does he mean a cliffhanger or those lame endings in hn2 alphas
prototype has its own world
dont think a cliffhanger
Not saying I donāt want it to release but weāre thinking a little too hard with what heās been saying.
how bout "you win" ending from hn2 alphas
btw
is it gonna be free?
if it comes out
yeah probably
Most likely, again though itās an internal build, so it probably has an ending by winning somehow but nothing much after that.
For a prototype build? Not at all.
is jacobs gas station gonna be in the build at least
Yes
yeah
but Jacob being an employee at the gas station is just a prototype
will probably change
These are all the known prototype build screenshots:
Personally hope it doesnāt, I like the concept of him most out of all the characters.
btw is the rbo ost gonna be in the game cause its relaxing āŗļø
Nobody knows.
We donāt know everything.
wait we have a time limit to finish the game????
Not even EGS?! 
EGS doesā¦we donāt.
We donāt know what the timer is.
Youāre asking way toooooo much.
Gotta keep it simple.
dude it lit says "time left runtime"
Could honestly mean anything.
iirc nikita didn't make the hn3 music at least in the late rbo era
Maybe it's running limiter
it was siarhei who made
He made this: #work-in-progress message
It says āilluminated areaā on the top right, we donāt know anything on that.
it prob means we are in a bright area
The only Siarhei music we've potentially heard so far is the music that played on a radio when Signed walks past in that scene at the end of the dev log with the QR code on the sign.
cause in the gas station pic it dont say that
Possibly
Tomorrow probably
Can I get that clip?
Donāt remember music.
I remember clock chimes.
it was hn2ish music
kind of confirmed that this musician is Siarhei
Welcome to the FULL Season of #HelloNeighbor #WelcomeToRavenBrooks, which includes Episode 7 and a really special surprise at the end
Rock sounding music
I really loved the music in Devlog 1, Iād love to hear that music at night in game.
me too
The music in Dev Log 1 was made by Nikita, and not for HN3 itself
Damn.
yeah devlog musics is nikita's personal musics
aw come on!
Because whenever he makes music for HN, he loses all rights to it (which is REALLY lame if you ask me)
I really don't think it is.
that music dosent fit in the vibe of hn3 tbh
Man Siarhei is such a good musician.
nikita said it
For that specific clip?
yep
I can see it in game if itās quieted down.
quieted it still dosent fit the errie theme
its a sketch though
He should be able to do what he wants with his own music
Doesnāt always have to be eerie.
00:48-00:58 sounds like the only fitting part
Look at HN2 itās diverse music makes it so much better.
If it were eerie all the time, it would wear off very quickly.
Take the forest in HN2 P9 for example.
only if it was horror
Definitely.
but i dont think nikita will make hn3 have horror elements
Oh yeah, speaking of siarhei. Is he gonna be producing music for hn3?
Itās supposed to have eerie elements.
Mhm!
He is.
He's doing the sound design as well, just like HN2.
His sound design is so cool
He did the sound design?
It's overdone sometimes.
Yeah
Nikita probably made this music
hes the sound designer/audio engineer and composer
nikita said it
wait a min i will post it
Awesome
Damn, Siarhei really makes some good sound for the game.
.
Nice
Nikita 100% made the other two though (my personal favourites)
btw how did the player came to raven brooks in hn3???
btw, do we even know what this japanese rbo tv sound means
hes/shes lost or smt
unknown
Is this from the RBO Prototype from last year?
why is it an ogx file bro
yep
dont know found it on files
downloaded it
my files
RBO Prototype uses stock sounds
this is japanese
Since Siarhei wasn't involved
yeah, just made by nikita and aleksandr
We donāt know, all we know story wise is that we come to RB with no ties to the town, which is quite the change since all past MCs had some sort of connection to RB.
and one more thing
ig I found the English version, but I don't know how well Google Translate translates it
"and for the first time this summer, when the heat was as strong as 3 years ago, we saw for the first time that we could supply 6.3% of our electric capacity nationwide. According to him, the peak should be expected this year in the eighth month, when the heat will be as strong as 3 years ago. Demand for 22nd year is growing, even if the capacity of the remaining capacity is all of Western Japan, including Chubu Electric Power Co., it will still be 6% of Eastern Japan and 6.7% for the whole country. As a result, 6.3% is expected to be supplied. Kansai Electric Power Co., Ltd., which has the smallest capacity, accounts for 3%, Kyushu Electric Power Co., Ltd. - 3.1%, TEPCO-6.7%, etc. This is because a year ago we did not expect to supply Units 3 and 4 of the Oi Nuclear Power Plant of Kansai Electric Power Co., Ltd.ā¦"
how is this related to hn
(It isn't)
its stock
?
as aidan said
k
Gtg
royalty-free, not designed by the team, audio that can be used by anyone
well tB does not own this sound
btw are we supporsed to talk about stocks or hn3
We're not talking about finances 
welp im out bye šļø
I forgot about that stock sound
no embeds 
dm Jacky
Imma die if we don't get some HN3 teasers soon
i don't even think it was filmed
I enjoyed watching the previous devlogs the way they are filmed and edited is very nice
Its not a video you can just sit down and record, they put effort into these obviously.
I hope they find some great music to use in HN3, the music in HN2 is heavenly.
It fits the scenery perfectly.
wdym "find" they're composing
No, I mean like they make it.
But find the best parts to put it.
Like the bakery music fits the stereotypical sort of what we would think a bakery in a game would be like.
Also cause, HN1 had very little music in but was still a great game, the starter of the franchise.
any updates??
no
https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGdUjV7mC/
is this real?
yes
AWESOME
this is gameplay footage back when the game was still known to the public as RBO
and was multiplayer
Iām so behind on RBO/HN3
its singleplayer now
Awhh multi wouldāve been so fun
its 2024 though
the full clips on #work-in-progress
Iām so behindā¦
cannot wait for the hn3 prototype
its gonna be peak
"lame endings" and all of the alpha endings we're more interesting than the final game lol
you win?
HG ending is interesting because it reveals a new cool character, HN2 alpha 1 ending is... Yeah a bit lame, and HN2 alpha 1.5 ending is just a teaser for alpha 2 ig
very interesting
iirc alpha 1.5 was just an update to alpha 1 and an interlude build while they worked on alpha 2
I like HN2 alpha 1.5 ending the most
Yep
Tbf they are all random and cliffhangers leaving off and not making sense, HN2s ending whole isnāt exciting or great, at least makes sense with what happened in the game.
Yeah but HN2 is the worst cliffhanger aside from alpha 1 which is just nonsensical
But i really like alpha 1.5 ending
.2
Dev log updates???
for cying out loud hello neighbor one ending we fought a shadow demon that never got explained and a giant neighborš
dawg be patient
Actually you just don't know the lore bruh
The "shadow demon" is a manifestation of Nicky's trauma of the neighbor
And giant neighbor is giant neighbor ig
It was explained, the shadow demon is a manifestation of Nicky's trauma of eating at Wendy's.
Nicky is afraid to order at Wendy's
(He's a McDonald's employee)
Now I'm invested about this house. Is it just a shell currently or do you already have use for it?
Well in the prototype gameplay we got, it looks like the 2nd one needs to be opened by another playe while the othe one is used by a switch. We can see a switch opening the same styled gate.
When was this explained in the game
Or at what point did they leave ckues
For one, we start to see it when we come back to raven brooks in act three, mostly around the neighbors house, at the end of act three, the tables are turned and the neighbor is trapped in a room with your fears becoming your power against him banging on the door. In the boss fight against it, you have decided to fight the trauma that has been haunting you and protect your younger self from it, with every punch of it you get braver and more powerful, defeating some of the trauma, in the end you finally overcome that trauma and lock the neighbor away in your mind
I apologize then, that makes senseš
Ok, here me out, just because it wasn't confirmed to be the guest, doesn't mean it isn't?
its not guest
guest probably dont even modeled
when we ask aleksandr about that he said "i saw the concept art"
Didn't say it was a full render, it could easily be some 2d concept art in a 3D environment
Wait
Hold on
Lemme try something
this render also fanmade though
if the guest looks like that im gonna crash out
I need more 3d concept hn3 screenshots
If this enemy was real, it would probably mimic Jacob (it almost has that shape of body, that the Jacob has, and the player should have a very keen eye to find the difference from afar). (just a thought)
Not exactly, btw. We can discuss it in #lore-discussion š
nikita, how much of the devlog is done?
0.0001%
I mean I doubt it.
why would the guest have human skin?
Because he Is aaronš“
The question that i have never seen anyone ask is
If that is Guest, Why the hell is he looking straight up
Seems unnecessary to pose him like that
he saw a crow
He's looking at the previous game which Is now in heaven
Guest trying to look at a crow he liked
I still see a plank where people see guest beak
i see a very long neck
Like a plank from the upper floor which collapsed or soemthing
Wouldn't that be like not proportionate at all if It Is a neck
i mean
his limbs are already too long
I meant width wise
Like
That Is very large in comparison to the other limbs
i dont think the neck needs to be the same width as the other limbs
i mean for example look at Theodore
theodore has no neck
Yeah i get you but like that Is very very wide
dreams
Whatever It Is either ends here or that Is really guest
I am convinced that Is Aaron until i am proven wrong
i really cannot see if theres a beak in that image so i highly doubt that is the guest
A antagonist that can mimic or shapeshift would actually be pretyy damn cool
Tbf i can see it
But i don't think it is the guest
Most likely just a guy with a really tall neck or forehead
Alot of stuff in HN1 is metaphorical
So it's not really outright explained and more or so leaves you to make your own interpretations, but there is also a correct interpretation
Guest can shapeshi-
Well not anymore soooooo
Nooooooo
I mean we know the guest isn't supernatural
So it would make sense for him to have skin cuz he's just a guy in a suit ig
that doesnt mean he is human
Well name one character that is actually supernatural except for the ghost neighbor or Lucy's ghost. Even the ghost neighbor has non-human skin.
The thing
aaa where prototype
nikita, any updates on devlog?
He doesnāt want to answer
Leave him alone
Lets stop asking him, we asked him many times and he doesnāt want to answer it.
Let it be a surprise
its ready
It is
oohhh
So
what
just because he emailed him to get an interview doesn't mean he's going to leak things that would violate company policies
Prolly not till devlog 2
Isnt MegaM just the dude who posts on yt whats said in this server?
he will have an interview with nikita
Noice
which I think is a bit of an exaggeration for some people because I am 100% sure that he will not even answer the hn3 questions
Hope he asks why they chose to go for « very smart learning AI » as their first pc game
Same lmao
I donāt know why people keep on asking him about alpha 2 though
He has said he doesnāt know
Crazy
If anything Alpha2 is just a broken map
I know
ask him about Late Night Shift not hn3
I donāt know why people keep tapping about it
Yea
or RBO
Notice how when Nikita was working on hn2a1.5, the ai was much better then when he left
We need to know more about Hello Guest
wdym
It wasnāt
It was
The ai was just simple
The guest was much smarter
probably hn2 alpha 2 is just hn2 beta a with diffrent map with story
In unreal engine way of saying things, the alpha 1.5 AI was much better than any other ai, it had more features such as throwing items at the player
yeah most of the things nikita remembers were used in beta
almost everything
Alpha 2 map looked like a test map
because it was
In the ai rundown for HN2 you could just see plain hills in the background
The only thing I want in the interview HN related is Hello Guest things
they actually even called the release map a test map though
I remember when people though the full game was a beta 2 because of how unfinished it was
It wasnt really
i don't think Nikita could even answer questions after HG.
Unless youāre talking abt HGP, but in that case, it was scripted
he cant see ropes
because tB's privacy rules etc
I just want to know about rumble on the mill
Ohhh
pre-hn2 questions can be answered
as i said hn - h&s - hg questions can be probably answered
Ohhh
because at that time tB wasn't the boss
iirc nikita didn't think he had enough experience to finish HG
Anyway this is kind of off topic lmao
Guys this is an exclusive channel for HN3, let's please move to #hello-neighbor
The new HN3 screenshots look crazy good
which one
The one with the church
i wouldn't call it a church, it's not clear what it will be yet
which will not be used in the prototype anyway
just a map concept
I must say though, the game needs some proper textures instead of plain materials placed on to it, I do get that this is probably a placeholder but still lol
everything is a placeholder
Which locations will be in prototype
Well yeah
wait a min
Idk
these are the known locations from the current map of the prototype
maybe tomorrow devlog 2 will be realising and the prototype idk
idk
yea probabl
What's funny is they also deleted my message saying MegaM and Nikita were close
Wth bro
beacuse they're not close
i hope the devlog 2 and the prototype will realese tomorrow
Aren't they?
only Nikita agreed to be interviewed with him
that fanart with the guest looks very good 10/10
Well they didn't need to time me for being wrong about something
that's the only relationship between them
even though they are already close, it would be against tinybuild rules for nikita to tell him something about hn3
They should talk to him then, not time me for sharing his message about HN3 proto
megam didn't leak anything about HN3 that we haven't already been told
nikita literally said that hn3 prototype is done
Be careful with certainties around here, we only share information from official sources, i.e. our server, our devs and our socials. Besides, you don't check your DMs
i agree with you
Yeah I do, it said I was spreading misinformation. Everyone on is saying that Nikita already said that about the proto
You can't say that someone is close to a dev unless the dev confirms it
Well I didn't know they weren't close. I thought they were
I was wrong
My bad
You are on the official server, you can use the official messages as truth, you don't need to post someone else's message or from another server, which is not allowed here either.
If you checked my DMs earlier I would have talked to you before the mute so please keep an eye on them, next time we can solve it beforehand. 
the old photos of the prototype was in 2024 and the new ones in 2025
wdym
its not prototype map
its a map concept
wont be used in prototype
MY BAD
How not??? ššš
The Guest was never a creature or anything like that why would they change it lol
he's a crow
Fr š
Like no character in HN has ever been straight up supernatural
Yes, a guy with a suit and crow mask
hold on im gathering images to make my point
Let's at least hear him out first.
Yeah
He probably has like ATLEAST some powers
But i still believe the guest is a human
I mean a dude that can turn into a crow is at its core supernatural even if he's a human
okay okay now here's the true question
imagine its the same crow model in hn3
you know which one
the iconic
Well it could have like idk a scientific explanation
We know luck changing devices exist in this universe and apparently that's not supernatural
Or
They could just be lying
If they come up with a scientific explanation for Crow Guest to just say "Guest isn't supernatural" i cant wait to see what they come up with
because i currently cant think of any way
They're gonna come up with hot garbagae bruh š„
Why are we arguing over the Guest rn?
Would be so funny if the guest is actually supernatural and they just contradict themselves
No is arguing bruh
We're debating
Fair enough.
Thatās just, that canāt be scientifically explained, that would just be sci-fi.
didint at the end of hn 2 the kid cried to Mart Petorson and then you got hit
His name isn't Mart. It's Theodor Masters Peterson.
i only call him mart bc fgteev
I hope the beartrap lawnmower makes a comeback in the actual hn3
Genuinely was a good idea. It would be cool for that to be like a trap outside of the house. It also reminds be of the robot shark from HN act 2
I hope in hn3 there are genuinely creepy moments, cuz in HN1 we had some really cool spooky moments but in HN2 it wasn't at all
Lawn-O-Tron š„
I'm tired to wait the devlog(
ME TOO
me too?
YEAH
this community is never happy
Bro, I'm dying to play the proto
I'm gonna be happy when devlog 2, and prototype will out
Youāll be happy temporarily
Not forever
is it still classed as the begging of february
half the time at least
soon..
Soonā¢ļø
mid february in 2026
favorite tinybuild word
My favourite tinyBuild Word Is "Hello Guest Is Indeed Hello Neighbor 2"
It's also my favourite lie
Actual silly misters in the chat
my fave is "2000%"
š
bro having kanye pfp today is not good desicion
Nikita, will the prototype have the same mechanics as the fg?
will be the first phase of a small part of fg mechanics
Prototype is to test things. it's a basically small part of a part.
When is prototype
nikita, what you mean by "share" here is release?
#hn3-discussion message
I want to give this prototype to play around with. It's not much. It's not "demo" by any means. Just internal test stage that I want to share with community
is it planned right after devlog 2 or will a date be given for it in devlog 2?
Ideally, right after
waiting patiently 
you're probably tired of devlog questions, but can you give us some news for the devlog?
please can you guys be patient
i am always happy tho
im at peak patience capacity right here
have now boosted
I canāt wait to try HN3 and see how good it is
Does sci-fi count as supernatural
from your guy's playtest on average how long does it take to beat the prototype?
Ok, there is 6PM (In my country) so devlog 2 will not out today.
one question, so hello neighbor 2 is permanently stopped for the update situation, or it's temporanely bc for the creation of hn 3?
permanently
Hello Neighbor 2 development has been halted indefinitely after Halloween 2023. in short, it has been canceled
thx
This is the clarification I need, good to hear!
I guess yeah, Sci-Fi is science fiction, so stuff like Star Wars with lightsabers.
cant wait so its gonna be a level kind of thing like hn1 pre-alpha
its not even a alpha
no im talking about how hn1 pre-alpha is just a house we play around in so this "level" is gonna be the same?
this varies depending on the concept
the hn1 concept does not plan an open world like hn3 (which is not to say that you should expect an open world from the prototype)
You expecting too much from it. This is prototype. Test field of a simplest and first iteration of technology.
ohhh Its a test map
