ALRIGHT WE GET IT
😭
sorry u just trigger me
are we gonna see aaron in hn3 guys
theres a 75% chance of NO i bet
and did Nicky move out of raven brooks again
wait that's so dumb the town is literally abandoned
Nicky gets evicted and goes back to raven brooks just for him to have to leave again assuming he does
EGS
does nikita not trust them anymore? or somtin
(since they made hn2 kinda terrible)
False
EGS
Tinybuild doesn’t develop or make anything
Tinybuild is just the publishers
didnt they make most of hn2 after nikita left
No, he is working with them in HN3, and Nikita is part of EGS
no prob
maybe s3 of AS will explain that
whats egs
Eerie guest studios
by when nikita left he meant when nikita got replaced by alexis for the role of the game director
i was today years old i noticed that egs is a rename from dynamic pixels
his skin is too.. smooth
he needs more detail
still a good model tho
still weird seeing the old neighbor with baby smooth skin
@jade night is there a reason i cant open HNR?
oh nvm i just needed to open it with another program
for some reason the screenshots on steam for hn3 use the old jacob model
wait why does the neighbor have gloves
he doesnt have them in the concept art
tB are the publishers for HN, they never worked on any of the main games, EGS did.
Is HN3 on steam?
its from a fanmade game called "hnr" by cm20
is it google drive
yea
Because it isn't really an "hn3" fangame.
I am.
i got goose bumps playing your game great work :]
Is it publicly available?
yea
I am searching for it but I can't find it, if you could give me a link to it that'd be great
its in the comments of this vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI51rjdONLQ scroll to the very bottom and its there
thanks
Dweller
bro HNR is way to scary
What is HNR?
Do you mean HNVR?
hnr as in the fan game that was in the video 5 messages ago
Hey all. I've been thinking about the prototype recently, and I was wondering what kind of features you guys would like to see in prototype 2?
he cooked with this one
but nikita in interview he said that neighbor house aint big
also megaM says the neighbor must not supposedly to have the same room as hn1 to hn3 would do.
and i think its making nikita have some plans about the house designs too
Is there some fan stuff people are confusing as official or something?
what dose the R stand for in HNR
i think it means reborn?
The model looks pretty good, tho his face looks a little too smooth and he isn't as top heavy as he should be
Who make this mod tho?
what game engine is that? godot?.
gdevelop?
is that a fangame or irl photo
wow
ladder model?
yes
never seen it
it's in HN3, not sure where but you can see it in devlog 2.
its also in rbo i think
i remember looking at the files and it was there
edginess....
wait did he get banned
yes
yeah hopefully
i think he was doing a ban speedrun or somtin idk
who?
some idiot
oke
unity 👨🌾
to pick up everything like in the first hello neighbor
oh ok cool
Very goooood
(my brain is saying this looks worse and inaccurate smaller eyes. details less similar, small hair, has gloves , small boots, small moustache, head too big, chin too long
but im supposed to be kind)
i feel like im motivated to make an accurate 3d model neighbor again. im a bit experienced 3d constructor
its cool tho👍
hi guys
hi
You didn't predict anything? 🧐
Don't worry
The times soon will come.
Time travel theory
did yall know devlog 3 will come out this year
OH MY GOD I NEVER KNEW THAT THANKS SO MUCH
did yall know hello neighbor 3 prototype 2 will come this year
did yall know hello neighbor 5 tomorrow
Yes no yes no no yes
why in hn3 letters are in right position
because its a prototype
I don't really think that's why
Covered has a stop sign as a purse and the stop sign says stop, i feel that should indicate this game may actually ditch the scrambled letters thing in favor of readable text
yeah i dont think it looks good when they make letters scrambled
that was nikitas stylistic choice though
why not use it again
well i mean
if stuff like this will end up in the final game, i feel readable text may be a requirement
the game has a very different art style to the others before it
She doesnt have one on andis redrawing
Wait she does
Nvm
i was about to say
Her photo has changed in the develop the leg is shorter
andis blended her concept art with 3d models
Can I see the photo ? 🥺🙏
.
I mean covered 3d
there's no 3d model for covered
Coverette
yep, we just have blended with 3d models version
with "blended with 3d models" thing, they mean more so that it was made to have a 3d look
basically made so modelling is easier
🥺I wanna see
its "refined" version of covered basically
bro i just posted it
Which page
no i think they just don't understand
Actually 😅 I mean the 3d model not 2d

we dont have actual 3d model

we have the refined version which is you can say "overpaint with 3d models"

i hope they bring back ropes and cables from hello guest
?
10/10 id buy that irl
still looks like a van go
You can still play Hn prototype
Finally a worthy nft
Really how
just open it in your files
?
I will Sleep 💤 now bye everyone
Did you deleted the photo
guys i can't find the the place to get the hn 3 prototype
the playtest has closed, you can't get it anymore, sorry
no i mean like the new one, not rbo
i'm talking about this
it was on Steam until last monday
Arriving in Raven Brooks as a stranger with no ties to this place, you find yourself in a forgotten, half-abandoned town where every citizen has relations, desires, and goals.

To be announced
D:
i missed both rbo and the prototype ;-;
i just want the map so i can explore, i love looking at all the different house builds
stay tuned here for prototype 2 🙂
yeah
but i will never get to play either of them😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭
tbh i don't like the hn 3 artstyle
the best artstyle in my opinion
is hn 2 alphas
You might be able to get a key for Prototype 2 when it comes out
Anyone who already has the first one it will update to prototype 2

YES
I UNINSTALLED THE FIRST ONE 😭
what does that mean guys
everything in your life will go horrible, you will live in pain your entire life
you shouldn't have done that
Is the prototype 2 any close yet?
How did u get in the rbo playtest
Means u can download the prototype 1
its basically prototype 1
i got it when it was available
but then uninstalled it
They didnt accept my request yet
the playtest is over
Ohhh
if you mean prototype artstyle its not actual hn3 artstyle
its a very early version of artstyle

tbh
imo it all looked really good for a prototype
i agree
it looks pretty realistic
i mean it was mix of stock models, placeholders, and some hn2 assets
i havent noticed any hn2 assets
theyre testing actual art style in prototype 2 iirc
im so excited for the next prototype btw
Question: When do u all think prototype 2 will release i think probably may or june
probably mid may or smth
yeah i also calculated this date is due
when do yall think we'll get a pre alpha
late 2025
theyre also release prototype 3, and the alphas will be part of full game
they may not release alphas
so theres not gonna be a 4th prototype
we dont
we dont know
know
i hope theres will add alpha
Hello neighbor 3 is able to play on xbox ?
No
not now
for future, probably
No, prototypes alphas and betas will be PC exclusive due to the nature of porting over and fixing console-exclusive bugs which takes time, especially on an unfinished project. You will likely be able to play it on Xbox when the final game releases
Found this fan made model of the refined Jakob
he looks better with the eyebrows tbh
Nope
ur right i meant alpha 😭
Prototype (numbers) then Pre-Alpha, then Alpha (numbers), then Beta (Numbers), then Demo, then Early Release and full release
ur right
my brain just died right there LOL
Lol
Tbh since we will get same bus being cancelled in Prototype 2, we might actually start like that.
Yeah it switched to: Low demand
i didnt like the storm idea anyway (glad they cut it)
Maybe we will need to friend people and stuff in next prototype in order to get enough people get buses active
if anything they should add the storm to hn2 if they get a chance at patch 10
There won't be Patch 10
oh yea i forgot abt that lol
Tho game is still getting updates 🤔
In secret
I saw it on Playstation and last update was this year in February
And remove ending where it shows more stuff coming in future
i find it very weird how the game was better in its beta and alphas rather then the full release too
Beta -_-
hn2 alpha 1 and 1.5 were peak
Haven't you heard, Nikita the game designer had burnout and dipped mid development
That's why it's so different
yea thats why it got worse lol
I thought this was common knowledge
A lot of stuff got canned
alpha 2 was promising tho (until they didnt release it)
would you rather have hn2 patch 10 or proto 2
what happened to prototype 1
They closed the playtest
proto 2
Testing ended
i still have the prototype 1 saved on a zip (so i hope its not lost media in the future)
Proto 2 is coming eventually, patch 10 is coming never
Obviously patch 10 holds more value, hence it's the correct option
i liked hn2s old lore better with the guest and stuff and how it was all a dream etc
Tbh Patch 10 would've add most of cancelled stuff I think
Yeah like
It wasn't ALL a dream
alpha 1/1.5 was but like you know
Honestly it's ridiculous to even compare old hn2 lore with the new hn2 "lore" because it lacks any lore at all
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBclbkbC6vk have you seen this?

I did, but Nikita said that only a portion of the game would be a "dream"
Not the whole game in its entirety
so quentin was insane instead of a dream
so the lore was quentin is just schizo and breaks into the neighbors house for no reason
No he wasn't schizo 😭
schizo: to be or not to be, that is the question
You're not dumb you're just misunderstanding
Gosh don't rush with conclusions for once

Hello good afternoon
the thing i like abt hn2 alphas the most has to be the artstyle
i dont like the new one that much
what if instead of "good afternoon" you said neighbor
goo neighbornoon
Kkkkk
He was studying rumors and myths instead of real cases and events, he'd spend some parts of the game "daydreaming" with the gameplay taking place in his mind, his myth centered fantasies of sorts, filled to the brim with symbolism and all, with the rest of the game being and taking place in the real world
thats fire
Ok hello neighbors
"Guest World"
guys i have a theory, the show welcome to raven brooks, is based on hello neighbor
Insane theory
Woah
Banned from theorizing
Reason: "too good"
tell your theory
best alpha 1.5 remake on roblox https://www.roblox.com/games/16069451109/Hello-Neighbor-Forsaken
This is a remake of the TinyBuild Hello Neighbor Alpha 1.5 trailer, enhanced with additional content to create a more complete experience. The trailer showcases footage from Hello Neighbor Alpha 2, which was revealed before Alpha 1's official release.
The animations featured in this trailer were made possible thanks to the Hello Neighbor Modkit...
OKAY so the mr peterson in the show kinda looks like the guy from hello neighbor, and also theres children
i want to hug the neighbor
I DONT
he kidnapped 2 kids
I don't know if my translator translated it correctly but I didn't understand
Neighbor
Yes
well he is kinda crazy
2 kids is no biggies am I right
i still wanna hhug him
Very good kkkk
bro this guy
after all these years i still dont know how to feel about him
aaron is the GOAT
like he killed his sister but at the same time it was accidental
is man a bad guy or good one 😭
I dont think aaron is making it back in hn3
my goat 😢
i wanna see aaron in hn3
aaron moved on in life bros in 20s
Are you guys aware of the ending of FNAF 6? (correct me if I'm wrong) I think Hello Neighbor should have an ending similar to FNAF
what if hes still with theo
me too
nah
Kkk
why not
is it really good to be talking about non hn3 stuff here?
shouldnt we move this to #hello-neighbor ?
NO NOT THAT AMOUNT OF Ks
hes cant keep his son forever
am talking about hn
dream on
What problem?
just not three K
hn3 am i right guys
The "k" it's a way for us to laugh and I put little so as not to be considered "spam"
yeah but three K is a cult so its not good to put 3
guys tbh i joined this server when i saw the second devlog so like was this server dead before hn3 was announced
I understand now, sorry, I didn't know about this cult, thank you very much for letting me know.

does anyone know when proto 2 will release
prob in may
is hn3 gonna have acts
i hope they dont make the game a lot worse with alphas
because hn1 got butchered with the alphas into the full release
the full release
and alpha 4 and betas
you need a guide for like all of the puzzles almost
Fr
how to get hello neighbor prototype? no hn3!
It’s not available anymore.
A new prototype will release later this year though! A much better version.
did nikita compose the music played in prototype 1
yup
i hope they keep the style
it has more personality
compared to the cartoony
one
its funny that signed makes some random sounds i never heard before
i want the hn2 alphas style
because the town is abandoned
yeah that seems more fitting
whistling
i also can imagine the map being like muddy and yk
oh yeah
just not the cartoony one from hn1
not just that it says sdopisoud
am i the only one who kinda dislikes the hn3 characters so far (except for the neighbor)
i mean no
LIKE WHY ARE THEY BLUE!!!!!!
no
check out devlog two
if theyre not zombie enough look at covered bro she's a straight up zombie dude
do they explain it
its eerie feeling
the neighbor design is kinda
uh
im not talking about that one
his torso looks like a ball
he looks like
a whole another person
like his body proportions are changed idk how to say it but you get it right
why is his hair black
idk
and the space between his face and his chin is a bit too big
it was already big enough
turkish ah mustache btw (no offense)
he looks completely different man
i dont think people from looking average height to looking 7 foot 3 in that long
like people's eyes arent getting farther apart from each other as they get older man
are you telling people how to get older?
just look at the hn2 neighbor and the hn3 one theyre not the same person man
also now that i think about it he looks more like the unused hn2 neighbor
(the one in the alpha 1 intro)
the head is very very very different

finally
FINALLY SOMEONE NOTICED
hello beanbor
reminds me of the guest
wait he has the geust shoes
and thin arms
how often does nikita talk in this server
not that often
maybe if u pinged him or somtin but thats all i know
no they dont ping him
no
i dont think so
dynamic pixels
i love the guest so much for some reason
i wanna hug him even tho i know he'd kill me instantly
he talks often enough im sure he is decently busy
Nikita said you will be able to download it fine, even if you uninstalled it i think. idk tho
it said im in the rbo playtest
so yeah
oh wait is dynamic pixels still making hello neighbor
They are now Eerie Guest
oh yeah
only two weeks it feels like 7 years
patience
i check for a new one every morning 😔
i felt like 2 sec
the next one might be in 2-4 weeks im gonna guess
i hope in prototype 2 they make the interior better
Tbh sometimes he acts like a good guy, basically saving the mc several times.
At the other times he gets territorial...
i just read that as the guest saving minecraft
😭
where is he saving the mc
is hello neighbor 3 going to be on console just like hello neighbor 1 & 2?
Probably
It's really, really vague but 1) saving Quentin/Beatrix from MiTH in the extended ending of HG (kidnapping them in the process), 2) I think an updated cutscene in HN2 may imply the Guest is the one who brought Quentin back to his base (something in the bushes), 3) an unfinished/unreleased teaser 2 for patch 10 (??) the one with a ton of candles.
It both feels like it was less then that and more then that at the same time
- smells of fanmade tho
Upd. Found it on the tinyBuild channel, not fanmade
And for some reason it says Minecraft is mentioned in the vid lmao
baby face
I thought about putting the signed model and instead of being a plate, being this mask.
Can anyone tell me if the hn3 will come to the old generation as well? I know it's not even close to being released but tiny build has never made an hn3 just for the new generation
I even made a concept, but I need to refine it a little more.

quentin is next
find the differences ahh
😭
I just scrolled through chat and didn’t even see this 💀
thats it. im putting bald jacob over that gif with ai
DEAR GOD WHAT IS THIS CREATURE?!?1/!/ 😭
bro is not megamind 😭
losyash
kapatych
kar karych
sovunya
i hope there are gonna be like endings in hn3
Can someone please explain Hello Neighbor 3 to me, I don’t understand a thing.
instead of like 1
all we know rn is that our character is new to raven brooks
and raven brooks is abandoned
Oh ok
I think there might be death endings bc you can get electrocuted in the prototype
there will be multiple endings
lets go
its a placeholder
Is hope they make the neighbors chin less large with the model
It dosent look very good
Rest of the art is good, though
I agree
I do
The chin has grown on me quite much
You didn’t need to type the last 4 words
They should at least add a stubble on the model
idk im fine with the chin but his head is really really different
like its too round i think
ever since I saw this, I have had a question in my mind: Are these tasks made just to give life to NPCs or do they really have a meaning? what I mean is, will the characters become stronger when they exercise, and will they become braver as they get stronger?
both i think
is it just me or does the chin make the head look like a burrito
Personally i doubt ill like this model myself
peak
Yeah best model ever
can someone edit his head to look like a burrito like just shave his hair and mustache and itll be a burrito ffr bro
Bet
yk i can actually imagine seeing this ingame bro
LMAO
STOP REPLYING TO MY MESSAGE
Perfect
LOL
BRO THIS IS THE BEST PETERSON MODEL EVER
Bet
lmao
lol
Mr. Windows
the lore behind Mr. Windows is that his System 34 died in a play test of prototype 1
so now he is angy
What about Mr burrito?
Dang
Ok
blocked
or old peterson
where Hello bendy?
bro thats Beta 3 Bendy mod
Yeah
ok
bro became blonde
i stole Aaron
muhahahaha
But think about it a second the neighbor can be the crimson chin now
@mighty orchid im noticing a rise in burritorson
I cant imagine him without chin
Mr. Burrito more like Mr. Burritorson (Peterson + Burrito)
i was trying to model HN3 Theo's head and please oh my never let me cook again this look really bad
it's mainly the nose
but man im not experienced enough to do this
Remove the msutace
mustache
i wanna see him
without it lol
i made the mustache big for a reason
LMAO
Eggplant peterson
I hope the guest design is creepier than the current ones
I wouldn’t get your hopes to high, the game in general is supposed to be more “eerie” then “creepy” or “scary”.
But I’d assume he is somewhat creepy.
Is it prototype 2 how did you get the picture?
So it's mean you want the hello neighbor 3 to be the same art style at hello neighbor 1 is it?
That's prototype 1 just without the trees
reminds me of the globglogabgalab for some reason
other than that peak model 🔥
eggplanterson
which account is nikita account
fr
its called "grandeturisto", but dont ping him
while were on the topic of guest is it safe to assume that the Forest Dwellers are somewhat related to it?
forest dweller is tall guy who is guest
most people think that
forest dweller is placeholder for the guest
and the guest IS tall guy whos in keyart
was that confirmed?
by devs no
but in events forest dweller called "Guest"
when he catches someone it named GuestCatch
we'll find out later then
hes bp file also named fakeguest, which is because copy of guests ai
its 98% the guest
hi bro i dont remember but i think nikita said forest dweller is going to be have him own personality
no
.
just cross out forest dweller and write guest there
because its basically a CODENAME or smth for it
oh yeah right
why is everyone so mad about the hn changed artstyle?
like yea its different but not a reason to get mad
It’s very obvious as of now that Forest Dweller is The Guest AI in its early stage, but of course don’t want to give that away in the prototype so “Forest Dweller”.
yea
People have opinions, IMO the art style change is so much better, but also anyone who doesn’t like the art style doesn’t realise the theme of the world is meant to be eerie, the art style itself should give that eerie vibe, which it does, the old cartoonish foliage and nature would ruin that vibe.
as i said
forest dweller = the guest = tall guy
Agreed.
imagine they make them all different characters just to mess with us
I said before that as of now it seems obvious that there’s two parts to The Guest, his character is Tall Guy, his AI is Forest Dweller.
wdym like some will just remain as internal tests?
I habe a problem with hello neughbor 2
in the interview that i watched as far as i remember nikita said that the artstyle would fit the atmosphere better than the cartoony one
and i agree with that tbh
hi nikita
i feel like the hello guest artstyle would fit the game too but its not as eerie as the one theyre going with rn
Yes. And progress will be explained in devlogs. Because not all stages are logically established playable demos. Will see how it’ll go
cool
How is progress going on prototype 2 btw? Is it going well atm
Nikita is HN3 Prototype 2 coming in the first half of 2025 or the second?
let him type
It’s great. Playing it right now, actually
oh wow
youre making me jealou
Damn
so its almost finished or something?
why hes the one whos making it (u gotta test a game that u make lol)
I am not sharing dates
it waws a joke
like you guys do QA test for it
Ok
has any progress been made on devlog 3?
good to know you guys already packaged a build
in hn3?
i actually like it
it doesnt really mean that its close to being finished
yea i know its different but different is better sometimes
change is needed a lot of times
i mean they gotta test it from time to time
yeah
well it depends
Even IF it WOULD be almost finished devlog 3 will probably be made before they release it
Or he could simply be playing in-editor
Exactly
yeah
hi nikita
yea hn3 is suppost to be more... like realistic (its based on stuff irl from devlog 2 i think like buildings and stuff)
well for prototype 1 they refined version to public
yeah
probably prototype 2 have a different "refined" version for public
with some changes
nikita will hn3 have completely its own story or do you plan on making like flashbacks or something like maybe as cutscenes
prototype 1 was for ai testing right? that means prototype 2 might focus on game design next maybe?
arent we playing as quentin
no
no in hn3 were gonna be new to the town
oh
no
oh yeah i forgot
idk who we play as
jacob is a placeholder for the actual character we'll be playing as
isn't jacob that one guy
but player uses his body for placeholder
he'll be just an npc
ohhh that makes sense lol
the thing im most excited for has to be the ost
"First prototype is first playable iteration of simplest AI, with little to no direct interactions. Next iteration is scaled up AI and ability to actually sneak in to AI’s locations. Also, test for an art style."
as nikita said
prototype 2 have beefier ai and test artstyle
will the next prototype have a different map
probably
yes
yeah hello neighbor ost is always peak
he confirmed it iirc
or at least the same one with some stuff changed
whats that
yea hn2 ost was a GREAT vibe
he confirmed the map will be different if i remember correctly
no like whats iirc
if i remember correctly
in devlog 2 he said they might try to make every house and building explorable
oh
they WILL
he literally said "one thing for SURE"
i love the idea of no background buildings
even if they were to make a smaller map there wont be decorative houses
probably in Alpha stage
in my opinion its cool as long as the houses have a purpose
nikita said there wont be scripted stuff so probably
like if they have any useful items and stuff
because otherwise there would be no point in exploring them
they will
i wonder if there will be any cutscenes
calwom oot wayron croobs
i think they are gonna remove wayron croobian
raywen broocs
of course there will be
no cutscenes in hello neighbor game would be kinda crazy
the hn cutscenes are fire
yes
its like watching an animated movie like theyre so well made
ofc will be
there wasnt in prototype because its a PROTOTYPE
guys i think the date is April 04 time:12.25-40
what
God damn we don't even know a month and ur guessing exact date 
i changed
is the golden apple grammophone easter egg in the full release for hn1?
or only alpha 3
for hn3 i want there to be like a way to open doors quietly so the neighbor wont hear it
because in the hn games the door sounds are pretty loud to be unnoticed and that makes the neighbor look stupid
yeah
i remember in hn1 when guides were needed for like every puzzle
for the average person
i remember playing hn1 first time without a guide lol
the puzzles were too easy for me
are any old characters (from the hn1 or books except the neighbor and the guest) are going to appear in the hn3?
Currently we don't know but maybe
I completed Act 2 in 5 min by abusing the neighbor's AI
i honestly want the guy in that hat to be in hn3
he would fit the game
We should definately have him we need to know more about him
Bro MITH just appeared and dissapeared like that we need more of his lore
Also in HN 2 Patch 9 he just layed in a grave
for hello guest his lore was
he was the owner of golden apple amusement park
and looking for mayak some reason
Hmmmmmmmm
why would he attack us at the end of hg
and he hired quentin & beatrix
the guest had to kinda save us
I just hope HN 3 will have him come back
it will be very sad if HN3 is canceled one day(
why would it
i also want the mayak to be in the map tbh
IF
like dont yall think mayak would fit hn3
It would so much
its exactly eerie and mysterious
Okay so
Do note that he hired Quentin/Beatrix to fight off vandals while he searches for the mayak
so he used us
essentially
somewhat
I wouldn't exactly say so
he hires them to get a job done, that's what they're here for
but the at the end of HG Que/Bea kinda just
wander off
and the lit pathway behind the two-storey cafe shows that there's an opening in the walls that surround the park
i still dont get why the guest attacked him and ran away
or why didnt he attack us too
so like you're pretty much snooping where you shouldn't
probably with his investigations and searchings taking place... wherever the HG ending took place
HG Guest was Theodore
Nikita said that he (alongside Aaron) were hiding in the weather station (iirc) after the police got called on him in HN1
I don't remember him saying the weather station in particular, but rather the GAAP itself.
I could be wrong.
yeah probably
but in any case like
not only does it explain why he dresses up as a crow (disguise) but also why he's so hostile towards the protagonist and 
this is kinda cool
but the neighbor just wouldnt fit in the guest outfit
both parties are just intruding on his hiding spot
a diet
also isn't neighbor for trailer like
literally just Theodore but with Guest proportions
(I still love this model)
(me too)
one of the better neighbor models
For sure
bro looking at me like its my fault
And hair
kinda
same shoes too
to be honest they should make the hn3 neighbor similar to this but like way older
so you could say that technically they got him remodelled to fit the outfit
The person responsible for this model no longer works at Eerie Guest Studios. 
i mean like
cant they still use the hn2 neighbor
and make him way older
just make him way older and yeah
because the hn3 neighbor head looks nothing like old peterson
And (hopefully) a new model means that it will be even higher quality than the previous
(if they can find someone to model it at such quality)
It's much closer to the original neighbor concepts that Nikita had, and the HN2 neighbor design is closer to how Elena wanted him to look.
No, they can't.
who is EGS's character modeller rn
No one
but Elena wasnt the one who made jacobs model iirc
Elena made Jacob and Iris.
Nikita made Signed which uses bits of Jacob.
andis? Maybe
i can imagine an old version of the peterson from hn2
i think it would look cool
I'm sure one of the current artists is capable of modeling characters (most likely Andis), but they don't have anyone designated for character modeling atm.
aint nikita referenced she didnt
He only said he can't say who did it
But the style is obviously Elena's, even using her textures
It's been confirmed that Elena made it.
Oh
will the characters from prototype 1 remain as they are
For Prototype 2? Probably.
I'm sure they'll find someone.
for the final hn3
Final HN3? They'll definitely be different. They can't keep Iris the way she is.
are they gonna stay blue
yea
Between the first teasers and Prototype 1 they touched up Jacob's textures (which are worse in some ways and better in others now)
its stylistic choice
That I do not know, very likely though.
i mean i dont mind them being blue but the clothes theyre wearing kinda annoys me
they retextured eyes
Substance Painted (new word) them.
Jacob's entire texture set, besides his hair, was tweaked/redone.
definitely hoping they'll go back to using this sweater texture with the pattern
They probably won't since I am assuming that Elena's work and they probably aren't allowed to use it on their new assets since she's not involved anymore.
They could try and replicate it though.
Well, it was made for HN2/HN3, so it's possible it's all property of tB and they could
Knowing how restrictive they (tB) are, probably!
by that i mean jacob has everything going on on the top and on the bottom bro just has some thin pants
Well, there isn't really much they could give him, other than texturing the pants in some way, I think it's fine the way it is.
The design doesn't need to be made 'flashy' all over imo.
Pockets and seams would be nice.
this makes me feel so cold
On the other hand, Iris wears very basic clothing that looks way too plain, I think they should give her some more interesting looks.
And it's just a paint-over, they can easily go back and add more details.
I think the current texture has seams iirc, might be wrong.
There’s probably won’t be. Apart from maybe very rare instances, like very first intro or something.
hi nikita
That's a shame, cutscenes are always a highlight of HN games to me.
They allow the characters to truly shine.
yeah
there definitely should be an intro and outro cutscene at the very least
Pretty much
I can understand why HN3 might not have much cutscenes, because of how interactive the world and characters are supposed to be, but having some more important events showcased in the form of cutscenes (as well as an intro and endings) at least would be nice.
Though ideally I wish each character had a set of little cutscenes of their own showcasing their personality a little.
Instant improvement, although she does look a bit close to Maritza.
I think it will be good. More immersive gameplay
it also would be really cool to see like cutscenes every time we discover a new place
like our character walking in and looking around or something
I feel like that would be way over the top
no i thought a cutscene for places that matter a lot
30 seconds intro shows all characters behavior. Might be good
because yeah otherwise it'd be too much
To me that would ruin the sense of exploration in a way, since you would immediately know "oh this location is important", besides, pretty much every location in HN3 is there for a reason, as Nikita said that they want every house to be explorable.
Sad
I suppose as long as each character has enough interactions with the player (and each other) to highlight their personality I wouldn't mind the lack of cutscenes too much, but still, kind of sad that there won't be many.
Same
well theres definitely gonna be an intro and outro cutscene right
I guess being able to see "events" happening around the world would be kind of like a cutscene, but more interactive.
how much did hn2 have
like 3 minutes worth
Like Hl2?
Most of which involving Quentin about to or in the midst of passing out.
And also picking up keys
Yeah.
that wasnt necessary at all
Better than a black screen with no transition which is how it was at release
HN2 did have the security footage but that would hardly count as cutscenes
im happy as long as there is an intro and outro cutscene
Exactly
i agree
what about endings? will there be no cutscene at the end of the final version of the game?
I do think there should be an animated ending at least
There doesn’t need to be any inbetween cutscenes but I do want the endings and intro to be a cutscene
I wonder if HN3 have any connections to past games other than the guest and neighbor?
I guess it depends on what would count as a cutscene, because there could be for example, an animation of the storm closing in on the town (there kind of is in the prototype), as well as an animation of the player getting on a bus and leaving, without it necessarily being a full on directed cutscene
same
i dont want to just spawn in the game like i did in prototype 1 🙏
Well that definitely won't be the case for the full release
But it might not have like a full introduction cutscene like HN2 did for example
I guess
There can’t be technically as everything is procedural.
oh cool
Will HN3 keep the story from the prototype or will it make a newer one overtime like how HN2 went from being a security guard at GAAP to being a journalist in Raven Brooks?
You mean, Player is us and we have full control
i dont think they are able to determine that yet, HN2's story changed because it didnt work
i feel like if it didnt work yet they wouldve started changing it already
Fair point
Is the ending just gonna be the Storm coming to the town and destroying everything like in the prototype. Because if there can't be a normal ending since the game is produceral, It's just gotta be a way to end the playthrough without any story ending
I hope we will kill guest
oh come on 😭
It's not that the game can't have endings, it just won't have cutscenes because the endings will be triggered by events happening in the world procedurally
Not my pookie guest 🥺
I assume, for example, you can trigger the same kind of ending in multiple places around the world, so having one cutscene for it wouldn't work
Full story is in development. But final game will have some bits that are in prototype, like festival for example or approaching storm. But that may take a different form or meaning. And also this is just one aspect. World planned to have many intersecting storylines
How long is a playthrough intended to last in (in-game) days
is there gonna be mith in the game
So will there be a sequence where we encounter storm, where we will actually experience a storm, like it was in rbo
Too early to say
Fair
Approximately, but in which version might a neighbor appear?
Ideally, yes
I assume the full game will somewhat have you choose which storyline to explore, which will all lead to different endings
That would be really cool
I think models will be completed in full game
I'd love like branching story paths
Their main focus is ai now
nikita i think it would be cool to have the ability to open doors quietly in the game
in alpha i would say
because alphas will be PART of full game according to nikita
I hope
But we have only Irıs's new hair texture right now
I think we'll have a placeholder model in the coming prototypes and earliest final version like alphas
One location I'd love to see is a café. Just somewhere the NPCs go to hang out and converse
Maybe the vandals occasionally show up to be menaces
because they dont have a spesific character modeller rn
That would be cool. Plus it would be a perfect place to try build relationships with the NPCs like if you invited an NPC for a drink
Playing it on steam deck, btw.
COOLLLLLL
