[untold grotto]

wheres the trailer

[finite carbon]

I wonder if Janusz will be in Prototype 3

[bright rain]

How is that purple boy Issac

[native marsh]

there is no trailer yet :/

[bright rain]

Issac looked different in the missing poster in prototype 2!

[eager glade]

he is

[untold grotto]

so what was the point of saying "games in trailers before they're release look very good, but when it releases that feeling just disappears"

[native marsh]

but we always have a little of images

[peak solar]

The funniest thing ever is that

for a blockout, this is REALLY faithful to the concept art

[eager glade]

ye but its him

[untold grotto]

rebirth theory is real guys

[bright rain]

This means that Issac going missing in that missing poster is fake and non-cannon.

[native marsh]

but its real, when I looked at prototype 2 early gameplays from nikita before the prototype 2 release that was looking super good, but after release when you know everythign there is in prototype 2 the trailers are not giving that good feeling

[eager glade]

i dont think the prototypes are even canon so ofc they arent canon unless its in full release

[bright rain]

And I still have high hopes that Issac is Iris' brother due to them having purple skin.

[eager glade]

which i kinda doubt

[untold grotto]

prototypes have their own world with placeholder story 🙏🏻

[eager glade]

their own story yes like leaving the town

[native marsh]

27 February - Prototype 1, 27 May - Prototype 2, 27 August - ???

[peak solar]

Whatever happens, I'm excited

[eager glade]

idk if hn3 full release has the same goal

prob not

[finite carbon]

Maybe in September. Hopefully August though

[bright rain]

Who here thinks that Issac might be Iris' brother because they both have purple skin?

[eager glade]

either maybe after a random or final episode of s3

or itll be smth else like movie

[native marsh]

Maybe we gonna have devlog 3

cuz when prototype 2 released it was already in the stage of script writing

[upper grove]

I have a feeling we're gonna get the next prototype in either mid September or early October

[eager glade]

thats what im talking about

[bright rain]

Who here thinks that Issac will be Iris' brother!?

[eager glade]

idk

[bright rain]

I mean, they both have purple skin, so they have to be related some how.

[tepid ember]

thats what im saying

[bronze steppe]

you got a point ngl

[nimble walrus]

You are onto something, probably.

[native marsh]

im under Lays Chips

[nimble walrus]

[whole obsidian]

Bro you blind

[quaint talon]

I guess yeah

#work-in-progress message

[peak solar]

but yeah props to the team for all the stuff so far

[civic totem]

Isaac's placeholder face looks weird

[high brook]

yea hes like really happy for some reason

[broken galleon]

yeah just pause the video

[whole obsidian]

Bro you say what

[restive oxide]

"I love being missing"

[bronze steppe]

lmao

[whole obsidian]

Bro your idiot

No

[opaque summit]

their idiot

gud english

[restive oxide]

Nuh uh
its my idiot
not theirs

[opaque summit]

ninjonahplayz' idiot

[whole obsidian]

Bro

[whole obsidian]

Real

[restive oxide]

' signifies ownership

[whole obsidian]

No

[restive oxide]

its basic grammar my friend

an apostrophe signifies ownership of something
indicating that
"Ninjonahplayz' idiot"
means that the idiot belongs to me
but this is hn3 discussion so let's discuss hn3 :)

[opaque summit]

yes

[whole obsidian]

Yes you idiot real

Ninjonah idiot

[finite carbon]

Excited for Prototype 3

[opaque summit]

same

[atomic forge]

Skebob

[blissful river]

Why are you being rude and calling people idiots? That’s not nice bro.

[opaque summit]

karvilax is mean to litterally everyone

[whole obsidian]

Bro they say nonsense

[blissful river]

yeah. I don’t get it.

[restive oxide]

10/11

[lucid crescent]

Nikita should deserve a raise

[restive oxide]

the face won't change shape too much
blockout is just a flat textures version with the key details

unfinished version of the final

[narrow gust]

*does

[buoyant torrent]

Do you think Janusz would appear in the prototype 3?

[lucid crescent]

Before prototype 3 release yes

[narrow gust]

I doubt it as he looks like he was made much more recently

[restive oxide]

nah

[buoyant torrent]

Alright and is there any new characters will show up?

Besides the guest

[lucid crescent]

Janusz will play a important role in the prototype 3

We never see the guest what are you talking about

[narrow gust]

Forest Dweller

[restive oxide]

there will be some new characters

likely covered and coned

[narrow gust]

Maybe Historian?

Possibly Isaac?

[lucid crescent]

Guys I don't think Aaron will return in Hello Neighbor 3

What do you mean we

Nikita said that the neighbor and the guest he didn't mention Aaron

[narrow gust]

You know how Dweller appears behind the player and jumps them? How will he catch the player if he is roaming around?

[restive oxide]

I mean how would any other character chase you?

sees you and chases

[narrow gust]

I meant the jumpscare

Like would he have to navigate behind you or would you just snap to face him?

[lucid crescent]

We will see the protagonist concept art like the other characters

[narrow gust]

Probably

Probably

Again, probably

Yes

[blissful river]

Hmm. For a block out definitely an 8/10.

[opaque summit]

it will probably look closer to the concept art in the final game

[whole obsidian]

Bro face look like concept

[royal solar]

#work-in-progress message is it just me who is insanely surprised that isaac is a child

i thought isaac was a fully grown man until this point 😭

[restive oxide]

lol

I'm sure Isaac
as a 10 year old
gets that a lot

[royal solar]

his missing poster in prototype 2 makes him look a lot older from what we can see LOL

[restive oxide]

true

[royal solar]

quite the surprise

unless this is a different isaac ?

[mystic topaz]

Nope both the same they just kidified him

[potent tiger]

Janusz is green I think

[potent tiger]

So he used to be an adult I assume?

[mystic topaz]

Pretty much yeah

I would guess they wanted it to be a kid missing again to continue the hn vibe

[potent tiger]

Yeah seeing the missing poster makes Issac look older so maybe that was the original idea before the latest concept art

[mystic topaz]

maybe

[potent tiger]

Yeah I did say maybe so it could've been

[mystic topaz]

I do like the new Isaac style but it would've been pretty cool to see how they would've handled adult Isaac well when he was still an adult originally lol

[potent tiger]

Is the bus from prototype 2 staying or?

[mystic topaz]

probably

[potent tiger]

Yeah I kinda wanna see the concept art for if he was gonna be older.

Cause I assume there would've been

If so

Closest thing is the missing poster

[mystic topaz]

for sure yeah

[royal solar]

man i really hope we get to see more HN 3 enviroments soon

i wanna see the progress

[mystic topaz]

fr

I really like the foliage very creepy yet oddly comforting

[royal solar]

yesss

its so pretty

and i hope the plaza finally makes a return one day💔 my favourite location ever

[mystic topaz]

Same although it was an overpaint I think it would be cool to see it again

[royal solar]

i dont think these are an overpaint !! they were test locations

but even so they have to be my favourite they have ever done its so perfect

[mystic topaz]

True

I like the clock tower building thing

[blissful river]

Same.

[blissful river]

Those photos are real models. These are the overpaints

And still the one on the right had a real model as well.

[mystic topaz]

Oh

[unborn edge]

these were just test locations to experiment with the art direction, these wont end up in the full game

[whole obsidian]

Bro stop say nonsense please @woeful quartz

[sleek moat]

When’s the next time Nikita said sum in chat

Can we get a T pose version from front

[small patrol]

YOOO

ISAAC LOOKS BETTER

also

why did they delete the polish character

nvm

[sleek moat]

I meant when’s the last time he did

[small patrol]

internet issues

[normal cairn]

i just realized when i was palying hn3 i saw the dweller kidnapping the others with them that the dwelller kidnapd the others if we dont rescue them

[sleek moat]

Yeah I found it

[small patrol]

absolute perfection

Tbh i love where hn3 is going

but still

we need a model for the geust

🙏

[sleek moat]

YES

[normal cairn]

yeah

[small patrol]

9.9/10

[normal cairn]

i wonder whos the guy in the main menu

[small patrol]

i didn't expect this would turn out like thos

this*

[small patrol]

ik but

whens devlog 3

😭

[normal cairn]

u mean 4

[small patrol]

what the darn nation

3

wdym 4

[normal cairn]

oh right

[blissful river]

This is cut together from the 2 images we have of this guy. Everyone assumes this is the guest.

It looks like a bird creature at least.

[normal cairn]

before the proto 1 realsed he made a devlog i think wich i dont know if they shoul be considerd

[small patrol]

hm

[normal cairn]

lowk i think proto 3 is the 27th of next month j

[whole obsidian]

[bronze steppe]

W jacky in action

[bronze steppe]

[whole obsidian]

Bro i talk hn3

[bronze steppe]

what character of hn3 yall prefer

[restive oxide]

janusz

he is peak mans

[bronze steppe]

i wonder how his 3d model is gonna look

[restive oxide]

hopefully peak as his concept

[whole obsidian]

Bro i think

Forest Dweller

Yes BTW İsac rebirther

[bronze steppe]

he is a interesting character

[whole obsidian]

His apron rune say

[jade night]

Jacky can I have embeds back, please?

[whole obsidian]

Me to

[restive oxide]

I have a theory that Isaac will be physically kidnapped during gameplay and not just a pre happened thing before you start

[whole obsidian]

Yes they

[restive oxide]

or he will at least be able to saved

since he has a model

[whole obsidian]

The full teori btw

So good

[restive oxide]

my theory is his parents died and the historian took him in

[whole obsidian]

What do you think about the thing their writen

How to know @woeful quartz

[restive oxide]

theory

[whole obsidian]

They talk on other channel

[mystic topaz]

I'm curious to see what Janusz blockout model will look like

[finite carbon]

Ikr

Prototype 3 boutta be epic

Interesting theory, The patterns do align.

[royal solar]

wait i thought the historian was a woman

help

[whole obsidian]

Yes

[river spire]

i thought she also was a woman

[jade night]

She is?

[royal solar]

she is that message just confused me

''and dressed him in his clothes'' i took the his as in calling the historian a man lol

[thick terrace]

dude i know my stuff

what im saying is that house looks nothing like the rbo house

[jade night]

Because it isn't

🤯

[thick terrace]

exactly

hes saying it is

[low gate]

Im very confused because the similarity's between that house and the RBO one is nil

[thick terrace]

or a theroy or wtv

[jade night]

Ah I see

They are a new member so it makes sense

[thick terrace]

yeah

[low gate]

Being in the discord doesnt determine HN knowledge

So no

It doesnt

[thick terrace]

i know my stuff about hn

seems that dude dont

[low gate]

This isnt knowledge though

[thick terrace]

i know

[low gate]

This is just obvious to all non blind people

[thick terrace]

at this point its common sense

that dude makes the most bs theroys in the server

[jade night]

It doesn't but if he's new to the server, can mean he is a new person to the community

[vernal osprey]

Guys, did Nikita say smth about the age of the vandals?

I just started thinking about it
And now thoughts about their age don't leave my head.

[finite carbon]

I thought she was a woman as well

[royal solar]

she is

😭

[finite carbon]

Or is she?

I have a theory

A game theory

[royal solar]

i support her transition

❤️

[finite carbon]

I’m proud of the historian for making her transition

[royal solar]

well yes as we should

[swift dagger]

Will hn3 be on ps5

[finite carbon]

Full release will most likely be on ps5

Alphas and prototypes though? Not likely.

[untold grotto]

yes

it has been confirmed

[restive oxide]

she is

[royal solar]

i know

[restive oxide]

ok

[gentle pebble]

Even on switch 2 and Xbox

It will come

[eager glade]

i never said anything about the rbo prototype im talking about THIS future house in rbo

[eager glade]

im not ive been here for a year in somewhere before august or during

but smth happened to my acc

js bc ppl are new anyway doesnt mean theyre dumb

[eager glade]

what did i even do to you ?

[craggy swift]

IMO I don’t really like hello neighbor 3

[restive oxide]

sadge

[craggy swift]

Wdym

What’s Sadge

[restive oxide]

sadge is like
dissapointed

idk

[craggy swift]

Why you do you like HN3?

[eager glade]

ooooooh

[restive oxide]

its peak

[craggy swift]

we all have opinions

[eager glade]

becauusee its a cozy yet eerie adventure where every path is the right one

and every action leads to discovery

[craggy swift]

That’s fair

I like that it’s open world

I think that aspect is 100% amazing

[restive oxide]

better question
why DON'T you like it

[eager glade]

i mean

theree were alot of failures so

[craggy swift]

Characters build design

[eager glade]

but i trust hn3

[craggy swift]

And I hate those stupid camera and lawnmower with bear traps

[restive oxide]

what's wrong with the character designs

[eager glade]

i mean atleast its challenging

[restive oxide]

P2 is just testing new stuff
it is a prototype after all

[craggy swift]

I know

Just feel like HN starting falling off sense H2

[restive oxide]

prototypes are meant to test gameplay features
cameras and the lawn-o-trons won't be so common in the full game prob

[restive oxide]

just HN2 fell off cuz Nikita left the team for a bit

since he's back I think hn3 will be peak

[craggy swift]

The thing I loved about HN3 was the part where it’s really dark and hear eary noises in the theme park area and I lowkey was kinda scared

[eager glade]

wdyt ab this house yall

[eager glade]

hehe

that sounds so'

eerie..

[craggy swift]

But I enjoy pre alpha the most lore and design wise

[eager glade]

yeb

[craggy swift]

actually scary and real

[eager glade]

maybe itll give some sort of pre alpha vibe

[craggy swift]

I really hope they don’t fumble the bag on this

[eager glade]

yep

[craggy swift]

I think open world is awesome sauce

[eager glade]

if they mess up ill still be in the fandom but not trusting theyre process

but hope they nail that off and make it very good

[eager glade]

yeah

[craggy swift]

The night time is spooky but

It’s open world 10/10
It’s horror factor 10/10
it’s lore 8/10
its features 2/10

Finding npc is rare

And boring and most areas are locked houses with lawnmowers

[restive oxide]

nah you just don't look in the right places

[craggy swift]

but being able to break doors is cool

[craggy swift]

I spent an hour playing and only saw 1 guy

[restive oxide]

iris
the girl
spends all her time at the amusement park

jacob
the boy in the blue jacket
will go to drive to the gas station but will crash and get kidnapped if the billboard is broken

signed is just
signed

[eager glade]

signed is just next to the generator dead

[bronze steppe]

haii

[normal moat]

is the playtest multiplayer or is that something that wont work

[bronze steppe]

is singleplayer

[normal moat]

aw dang i wanted to show my friend around the game

[split niche]

Of course the day after I stop being active Nikita posts a wip

[eager glade]

lol

[bronze steppe]

lmao

[civic totem]

Yep

He's dumb

[eager glade]

pretty sure bro wants be the opposite from the i fix things guy from wreck it ralph

[civic totem]

Mhm

[tepid ember]

smash it steven

[tight mesa]

how u get that?

[eager glade]

its in devlog 2

[bright rain]

That statue was not in Prototype 2, so why does it say prototype 2!?

[tight mesa]

they were desighned to give a uncanny aperance

in devlog 2

they mention that

[finite carbon]

False 👎

lol

I’m fully aware I’m running on my last brain cell

?

lol

[river spire]

ironic coming from someone like you

[finite carbon]

Correct 👍

[river spire]

like he says “people with stop signa for their head”

like bro

look at the models

and plus, have you ever heard of a stylistic choice?

[upper slate]

So much arguing in this server all the time 🥴

[river spire]

unfortunatley true

[thick terrace]

some people dont understand the word artstyle

[finite carbon]

Correct

[thick terrace]

they just complain and complain because it isnt how they want it to be

[finite carbon]

Correct 👍

Anyways, Prototype 3 is shaping up to be epic

[thick terrace]

😄

[mystic topaz]

I agree

Janusz reminds me of Squidward lol

[finite carbon]

lol

I can see it

[mystic topaz]

both work dead end jobs well idk actually if Janusz does show up in the game I wonder what will the supermarket look like since the town is half abandoned

Maybe the supermarket will look a bit defunct or something

[river spire]

half of the supermarket just wont be there

similar to signeds workout room

[mystic topaz]

that’d be weird to see but I’m interested to see what it looks like

[river spire]

maybe it could be boarded off or smth

[mystic topaz]

Yeah

[river spire]

and youd need to enter through there to get inside

that would be interesting for alpha 1 perhaps

[mystic topaz]

I could imagine maybe the supermarket having a close off system where it opens on certain times like a gate closing the shop and then open back up again

[river spire]

interesting

[finite carbon]

That’d be a cool system

[mystic topaz]

I think the gas station has something like that where if the security camera spotted you the station would go on lockdown and close it

Basically trapping you inside

[bright rain]

Can you all please quiet down! I'm trying to run a server and I can't do it without you all talking.

[river spire]

just turn on do not disturb

[finite carbon]

Correct 👍

[river spire]

it does, really annoying when i try to get the toolbox

then i remember i can easily turn off the security from inside

[mystic topaz]

Think the guest had a system similar to it in the old hn2 alphas where like if it was night time the Guest would lock his house to prevent you from going inside like he’d gate it off

and then open it back up in the morning

[river spire]

kinda correct, the lock that you get from the attic can be used to close off doors in the guest house

but i never think he does it himself

[mystic topaz]

I like the lock

the fact you could lock any door to get out of trouble was cool

[river spire]

yeah

[mystic topaz]

kinda like door blocking which I really loved from the first game

with chairs

[river spire]

and furniture too

[mystic topaz]

I hope it comes back in hn3 in some way

[river spire]

maybe you could pick up and drag commodes later to block off doors

that could be a viable way to do so

[mystic topaz]

That’d be cool

[river spire]

and since you can pick up large items like ladders its more possible to become a thing

[mystic topaz]

especially since hn3 is more physics based which is nice I like the fact we could walk into doors without pressing E but I kinda miss the E to open doors

sometimes I find it hard to walk into doors to open them

[high brook]

when do yall think p3 will come out

[river spire]

hopefully either on august or semptember

its possible to come out on august since it would line up for the release of p2 and the steamdb page was recently changed, something that also happened near p2’s release

[finite carbon]

Most likely September

Or October

[mystic topaz]

maybe

I’m honestly really excited for P3 to see the butterfly effect

like I’m a big fan on the idea of how our actions affect the environment and world in general in hn3

I love it when games do that makes it more interesting and immersive

I’m still curious on how it’ll play out though

[river spire]

when you take one chair from jacobs house and that leads to isaac landing on the moon:

[mystic topaz]

lol fr

I think they’re still gonna keep him going to work and we need to save him

[finite carbon]

It’s all apart of Nikita’s vision lol

[river spire]

yes it is

[lucid crescent]

P3 will release this month

[mystic topaz]

I’d imagine Nikita wanted to put a butterfly effect in HN2 not to help but mention HN2 was all probably was what Nikita wanted to make but if I’d like to imagine he’s putting everything hn2 he envisioned to have into hn3

[river spire]

WE pray that happens

[mystic topaz]

especially like how immersive and the characters intertwined in a way

[lucid crescent]

What does the butterfly effect mean 🤔

[mystic topaz]

Also I believe the narrative would’ve changed depending on our actions in the old hn2 website description

[river spire]

little change ripple into big effect

[mystic topaz]

it means basically whatever you do it affects the world in the game like let’s say you spill someone’s milk maybe they might build a grudge against you or something

[lucid crescent]

Ok

[lucid crescent]

Every choice the protagonist makes?

[river spire]

yeah, or every choice he doesnt make

for example in p2 if you take the crowbar near the town generator then signed cant break the generator and thus stays alive

[lucid crescent]

That's a butterfly effect right

[river spire]

otherwise signed breaking the generator wouldve led to him being electrocuted

[mystic topaz]

I really like the details

[river spire]

yeah

[bright rain]

I'm trying to run a presidents server and I can't stand all this talking.

[mystic topaz]

if historian does come in the game probably not in the upcoming prototype but later I wonder if she’ll have like a small exhibit or a excavation site

[river spire]

read

[bright rain]

I read

[river spire]

then turn on do not disturb

and you wont get any notifications

[river spire]

i assumed she’d live at where isaac is supposed to live but your theory sounds neat

[bright rain]

⛰️ I'm now putting a wall behind here.

[river spire]

dude

[mystic topaz]

I’d imagine her being like Isaac’s caretaker from the recent theories I’ve seen lately they do kinda have same symbols in their clothing

[river spire]

yeah that would make sense

since how would isaac have his own house

[mystic topaz]

maybe Isaac was a runaway

True

[finite carbon]

It’d be cool if she was. It’d give the characters a little more depth in their relationships with each other.

[bright rain]

Also, this game better have at least 10-15 characters as each prototype gets better.

[lucid crescent]

Wait I don't get it

[river spire]

the games gonna have about 15 characters by the final release dude

not by alpha 2

[restive oxide]

15 is the minimum goal

for final game

20 is the preferred

[bright rain]

Ok, why I say that is because that way it will make it like an actual sandbox.

[mystic topaz]

20 seems crazy

[river spire]

really does seem crazy

[lucid crescent]

Nikita said 20 people who are working on the game

[finite carbon]

Nikita confirmed 15 is the goal. I’m pretty sure he’ll follow through with that promise

[lucid crescent]

The population will be 15

[mystic topaz]

15 seems reasonable imo I think 20 is a bit too much

[lucid crescent]

Instead of 3

[river spire]

exactly

[lucid crescent]

15 sounds enough people right

[mystic topaz]

Yeah

[lucid crescent]

Why the neighbor's skin doesn't change from the colored characters

[bright rain]

I'm in this server while also handling my Presidents server right now. Also, who thinks that Issac will be Iris' brother?

[lucid crescent]

Guys good news Nikita is in a call

And now he's done

[bright rain]

You lier.

[lucid crescent]

I'm not lying

He is online

[bright rain]

Someone get this dude out of here for lying

[lucid crescent]

I'm not lying

He's online

[bright rain]

Dude, I can clearly see he is not. Now someone ban this dude for spreading misinformation!

[river spire]

he is online

[bright rain]

WHERE

WHERE IS HE ONLINE!

[river spire]

in the server

[bright rain]

Which part of the server.

[river spire]

in the members list

[lucid crescent]

He didn't send the messages

[celest plank]

mate

hes online

so what

[bright rain]

Fake news

[tepid ember]

hes online doesnt mean its to do with this server

[restive oxide]

he's online likely to talk to other team members using discord

[bronze steppe]

heyaa

[tepid ember]

hai

[mystic topaz]

Hi

[woven lodge]

Hi.

[tepid ember]

hi

[upper slate]

Five “hi”s in a row 😔

[river spire]

hi

[finite carbon]

hi

[narrow gust]

hi

[civic totem]

Hi hi hi

Bye bye bye

[river spire]

hello

neighbor

[upper slate]

That makes ten 🫩

[finite carbon]

Bye hi bye

[untold grotto]

17

[grizzled pecan]

That's kinda... Small amount

[finite carbon]

?

For an indie studio?

[untold grotto]

EGS is not that indie

its a first-party developer team

[untold grotto]

17 people are not few

[finite carbon]

Thought it was an indie studio? Guess not.

[finite carbon]

Agreed

[finite carbon]

17 is plenty for how complex the full game is going to be according to how the game is designed and developed

[untold grotto]

it used to be

now theyre fully owned by tB and funded/published by them

[lucid crescent]

I remember Nikita said deepening the AI behavior refers to the AI throw mechanic

[whole obsidian]

Wdym

[woven lodge]

It really depends on your definition.

[high brook]

im hoping this month

[untold grotto]

english

[slender basin]

@wraith gust this channel is for discussing HN3, please keep the topic, if you want to chat about the past we have #throwback-discussion

[wraith gust]

oh, my bad, im just trying really hard to find where that footage is from

can i ping nikkita tho?

[slender basin]

You can answer a message there, but please use this channel for HN3

[wraith gust]

alr, my bad

[swift dagger]

Who coming for the launch day of hn3

Cus sure am I

[shrewd jay]

When is Prototype 3 coming?

[finite carbon]

We don’t know

[tacit pelican]

hi people

[eager glade]

def this year tbh

we

weiilll

see

[grave mesa]

you cant stop

[civic totem]

I keep getting sent back to August 22

[thick terrace]

to be completely honest i think imbir might make an appearence, or some sort of reference to them

[lucid crescent]

Prototype 3 is close

Nikita is online

[whole obsidian]

He online do not mean anything

[lucid crescent]

I'm not

I'm just saying that

So be alert yourself

[finite carbon]

Ya know what’d be so cool for the HN3 full game to have? The ability to join the forest protectors

[lucid crescent]

That's a dumb thing to do

Nikita is not doing that

[finite carbon]

Why is it dumb?

It ties into the core of the gameplay

Choosing your own path

[restive oxide]

the player can kinda do literally whatever they want
if they want to help the forest protectors they are able to

and you have the ability to befriend every character

sooo

[lucid crescent]

Not everything

[finite carbon]

I mean it’d be kind of a fun path to choose

Being a cult member and kidnapping people

Rituals

The works

[restive oxide]

you can still do things in the game by just pretending

even if you can't actually become a cultist

you can still act like you are

and honestly it's unlikely the forest protectors will even be in hn3

[finite carbon]

Yeah that’s true

But what if the player discovers the abandoned cult and seeks out to revive it.

[lucid crescent]

The forest protectors will not be in the final game

[civic totem]

I'd assume so

They've been working on it for months

And Nikita said he's been really busy lately

[untold grotto]

since mid-march to be clear

[civic totem]

Yes

[eager glade]

it means alot

it means hes

working on hn3

which is

very cool

[untold grotto]

it really isnt

[eager glade]

it was kind of a joke tbh

should have added the /j

[lucid crescent]

So what do we do now

[elfin ridge]

I always thought /j was some small mistake people made when typing

[eager glade]

u thought that till now?

[elfin ridge]

something like typing ] at the end of things or adding an extra space.

[elfin ridge]

yeah

[eager glade]

i did it alot since 2024

[eager glade]

bro thats just crazy 😭

[lucid crescent]

Janusz blockout must be revealed tomorrow

Before prototype 3 release on Wednesday

[whole obsidian]

[whole obsidian]

Bro this guy %100 Ragebait

[lucid crescent]

I'm not rage baiting

[whole obsidian]

You rage Bait

[lucid crescent]

Nikita releases prototypes on a 3 month gap

[whole obsidian]

Bro it not how it work

[lucid crescent]

How is that rage baiting

[whole obsidian]

Everytime it take long

[jade night]

What's the proof?

[lucid crescent]

Ask Nikita

[whole obsidian]

There guy who rage bait and spread false info

[lucid crescent]

Yourself

[whole obsidian]

Maybe we should ping mod to ban she

[jade night]

.

[lucid crescent]

I'm not rage baiting

[whole obsidian]

<@&1162799252192379000> Dallen guy spread false info

[lucid crescent]

I'm just guessing

[whole obsidian]

She say prototype 3 will release on 27 August

[lucid crescent]

She

What do you mean she

[whole obsidian]

He also defends it

[lucid crescent]

See

[whole obsidian]

Bro it just false info you make from your brain

[jade night]

What's the proof? I literally didn't even know this and I would like to see where this information came from.

[whole obsidian]

May be he not rage bait but he spread misinfo

[jade night]

You can't just say "you'll find out in 3 days", like what?

[whole obsidian]

İt will not release

[lucid crescent]

It will be

[jade night]

❓

[untold grotto]

🤔

[jade night]

I literally do not care if prototype 3 releases or not honestly 😭

[lucid crescent]

You two will know in 3 days

[jade night]

I'm just wondering because Nikita hasn't said anything about the release.

of it

[lucid crescent]

He keeps it as a surprise

[untold grotto]

its like invitation to join a cult

[jade night]

Lmao true

😭

You don't

[untold grotto]

<@&1162799252192379000>

[jade night]

You don't you are like 12 years old dude are we serious 😭

[untold grotto]

theres someone here whos implying that he works at tB!!!!

[lucid crescent]

Use your brain

[jade night]

Yeah no developer or in sighter talks like that

[untold grotto]

oh i didnt know i did that @cunning yacht

🤠

and he banned

[lucid crescent]

No

[icy canyon]

Please do not spread misinformation, there has been no announced release date and if there was one it'd come from Nikita himself or be put into #announcements

[whole obsidian]

Listen Dallen

Listen the imbir

[jade night]

Common Karvilax W

[whole obsidian]

Wdym ?

[lucid crescent]

Let's talk about something else alright it's over

[jade night]

[whole obsidian]

@lucid crescent Bro

Protoip 3 not 27 agust because there no steam change

[lucid crescent]

It's automatic!!

[whole obsidian]

İt no

[lucid crescent]

It's automatic

How can Nikita steam change too early

[untold grotto]

there isnt really a change in both playtest and main page

[icy canyon]

It's best to change the subject to something else, again Nikita would probably give a heads up and he did say he was sick last week and just got back to it it's highly unlikely anyway. If you're refering to steamdb updates, it's just steam doing things not Nikita.

So, Signed clipping into a firework

[lucid crescent]

Bugs needs to be fixed

[untold grotto]

nah what i and probably karvilax meant probably was "scheduled visibility" changes that made from someone from tB or nikita himself

not the automatic changes tho

[icy canyon]

Ah, well I figured if someone was talking about updates it was usually tied to steamdb since it's having a lot of just number changes.

[untold grotto]

yeah these are literally means nothing

[icy canyon]

And yet it's treated as a record update which can possibly confuse some people, know it did for me for a short bit

[tepid ember]

wut was it

[neon ether]

[eager glade]

why does it look like a jet pack

[neon ether]

Raven Brooks Technologies©

[small patrol]

oh poor Nikita.

guyz

i got a question

whos the character designer of hello neighbor franchise

[mystic topaz]

They used to have a character designer her name was Elena Berezina

but she left

I think they do have a new one though

[small patrol]

im not hating

but i wish mr petersons design wad a bit,better

[mystic topaz]

I mean his new design in my opinion looks creepy and stuff but I understand where people are getting it from I miss the old warm feeling the HN characters had

[small patrol]

bro looks like he broke his neck

yeah

[mystic topaz]

I mean makes sense since hes a grandpa now lol

[small patrol]

this feels

like...

[small patrol]

how many yrs after hn2.

?

[mystic topaz]

Not sure

I'd like to guess it takes place in the 2000s

we'll probably get some confirmed date soon

[small patrol]

wowwww

[mystic topaz]

the first game took place in 1995 and hn2 took place in 1996 I think

[small patrol]

uhm

[opaque summit]

hn2 is right after act 2

[small patrol]

hes not a grandpa then.

but

bro why i cant send images

[mystic topaz]

Mb realistically I think maybe around the 2010s is a rough estimate

For hn3

[small patrol]

hm

is it me

or mr Peterson doesnt give old vibes we used to get

[earnest cape]

I think it’s some time 2030s I doubt it takes place before HN1 Act 3.

[mystic topaz]

we do see the neighbor get old in reset day in the book which takes place in the more present

True

[small patrol]

mr Peterson changed skin color 3 times

🙏

[mystic topaz]

hn3 neighbor gives me coraline vibes

if not the character style designs which is cool imo

[small patrol]

im very confused rn

why Nikita decided to add purple folk into the game

like.

it doesnt feel real

they look like they smoked 300 packs of cigarettes in a day

[restive oxide]

its just an artstyle

[small patrol]

yea ik

but

it was an unexpected choice

ig we have to wait for decb 2026

(my release date geuss)

between 7-19

this is the first hello neighbor released playtest.

It was hello neighbor 1 but it never got released

[untold grotto]

wdym playtest

[small patrol]

uhm

[untold grotto]

yeah left

[small patrol]

playtest is just a showcase of game mechanic features

or something like that

[untold grotto]

nikita made the hn1 neighbor model with help of Elena, elena made all of hn2 characters, nikita made concept arts of hn3 characters piotr made hn3 characters blockouts

[small patrol]

oh.

so Nikita designed hello neighbor 3s mr peterson

[untold grotto]

yes

[small patrol]

fair enough

[mystic topaz]

I wonder how Elena would've designed hn3 theo

[small patrol]

classic

[mystic topaz]

Usually she makes the neighbor warm and welcoming somewhat

[tepid ember]

with a pencil or paintbrush

[small patrol]

yeah true

is it me or

me Peterson in hello neighbor vr search and rescue seemed very realistic

💀

look at his face.

[untold grotto]

different visions

[mystic topaz]

Really interesting I like their renditions

Not great quality but yeah

i like nikitas

Elena's is good too

[untold grotto]

aint its both elenas

[small patrol]

Elenas creates were something we knew hn with

[mystic topaz]

I think so I heard somewhere Nikita designed the older ones not sure though I may be wrong

Unless Elena designed the older ones too

[untold grotto]

i mean elena made 90% (or more) of hn1 artworks

how am i supposed to know

and why its me specifically

[tepid flicker]

Elena made both of these

She is very diverse

[mystic topaz]

Ah

[tepid flicker]

Same person

[small patrol]

Jumpscares on Hn VR are on another level.

🙏

[small patrol]

i wonder why she got replaced

[untold grotto]

🥶

[mystic topaz]

Same

[high brook]

yea her foliage in RBO was amazing

sad it got replaced in hn3

[untold grotto]

it was not fully her though

[high brook]

i know

[untold grotto]

she edited stock models iirc

[elfin ridge]

The models in pre alpha were modeled after stock images.

could be what you're talking about

[untold grotto]

?

im talking about rbos second iteration

[elfin ridge]

those models didn't really look like edited stock models

rather simple stuff you could make in less than an hour

[untold grotto]

it is

atleast the foliage was elena edited-stock

[blissful river]

Kinda sad tbh

[blissful river]

yep

I do wish they still used the birch trees. I dunno why they stopped using them.

[whole obsidian]

What one

[whole obsidian]

Bro they use it

You dont see

[blissful river]

Nope

Not in the newest builds.

They only used it in prototype 1.

[whole obsidian]

Bro how you know they not use in future

[blissful river]

They removed them from Prototype 2 and they are not present in any of the new screenshots after prototype 2, so that tells me they stopped using them. That doesn’t mean they couldn’t bring them back, it currently it seems like they stopped using them.

[whole obsidian]

Who make the tree?

Nikita?

[burnt flicker]

hello aidan!

[tepid flicker]

They're not in the key art, not in any of the paintovers we've seen, not in the few screenshots from (presumably) Prototype 3... Yeah, they might have phased them out - which is a shame.
