like may 27 i think

sleek moat
#

Ik the date but what time of day

high brook
#

might of been afternoon

sleek moat
#

Ye

#

And today is the 27 so if Nikita follows a pattern

opaque summit
#

cant you check the post in the announcements channel?

sleek moat
#

True

#

So afternoon

lucid crescent
#

He posted announcements at a reasonable time

spiral atlas
#

Prototype 3 is most likely not happening today

#

For like a lot of reasons

#

So I wouldn't get your hopes up

whole obsidian
#

Why you think this @spiral atlas

spiral atlas
#

Nikita said just a few days ago they were in the bug fixing stage, I doubt they finished that already

And there has been no updates or anything on SteamDB either

whole obsidian
#

Bro because they updates in last minute @spiral atlas i think

#

Because in prototip 2 prototip 1 was close and they update ig when they want

#

But this time prototip 2 is open

#

İf they update persons will see prototyip 3

blissful zinc
#

Thats not how game development works

signal phoenix
#

is there any informations about the date of the full release of hello neighbor 3?

opaque summit
#

it will presumable release around 2027-2028

signal phoenix

Yeah you are ragebaiting

#

gg

stone elk
#

Just rememberd that in devlog 2 Nikita said "some one preparing for a festial someone will disappear and someone looking for their dog" and since there are barking sounds in the sneak peaks its possible that this is going to be present in p3

#

I am unsure what he means with someone knocking on your door at night since we dont live in ravenbrooks in hn3

opaque summit
#

i hope you'll be able to take an empty house and basically live in it

#

that you can upgrade and stuff like RBO was gonna have

signal phoenix
#

like i'd live in my little house, and go out in raven brooks

opaque summit
#

same lol

narrow gust
stone elk
#

yeah I could see that being the case

stone elk
narrow gust
#

He could have been reffering to the vandals breaking into your house during storms

open plaza
stone elk
#

I think prototype 3 should be ready soon since Nikita said that they are currently fixing bugs in p3 so I assume that mean that that means gameplay is finished and just polish to go, and since its a prototype its alright if there are bugs so they shouldnt have to spend too much time on that right now

#

bonus: bugs are usally pretty fun in hello neighbor

open plaza
#

it MAY (QuentinSuspicious) be today (4-5 pm and the 27th theory checks out Imbirheart)

lucid crescent
#

That was Wednesday

normal cairn
open plaza
#

so either in 13 minutes or in an hour

normal cairn
spiral atlas
#

i very heavily doubt it's in 13 minutes when nothing on steamdb has been updated in weeks

signal phoenix
#

2 hours

pastel basin
#

prolly not today

#

considering its the weekend

spiral atlas
open plaza
#

private branches are fair
i used to track when changes were being made to those but not right now (pretty sure u can through steam console via depot/appid)

lucid crescent
#

Let's just be patient

night vigil

You arrive in Raven Brooks as a stranger, with no past here and no clear reason to stay. The town feels like it’s slowly being forgotten, but traces of life remain: quiet, persistent, and watching. What will you uncover here? What happens if you start pulling on the threads? The answers aren’t handed to you, they’re waiting to be discovere…

#

He's 85

restive oxide
bronze phoenix
#

for first time

lucid crescent
#

He can't run fast

restive oxide
#

???
it's not spoiling anything if I say he ISN'T in the game

bronze phoenix
#

idk but i was thinking if he is in the game

signal phoenix
#

please nikita say something

gentle pebble
#

Peterson won’t be able to run

lucid crescent
#

Exactly

restive oxide
lucid crescent
#

He will walk

oh aight

His 85?

#

Huh

bronze phoenix
#

idk

restive oxide
#

Nikita confirmed

lucid crescent
#

He is

bronze phoenix
#

where they got it from but i believe them

bronze phoenix
winged jungle
#

I think that, that would ruin the whole series

#

If his 80

bronze phoenix
#

alright im booting hn3 up

winged jungle
#

From 50

bronze phoenix
#

what should i expect

gentle pebble
#

From HN2

restive oxide
#

35 years is crazy

winged jungle
#

It just doesn't make sense

restive oxide
#

how is that confusing

winged jungle
#

From 50 to 80 in 1 game

restive oxide
#

bro

#

the time period is just different

bronze phoenix
# restive oxide why

i mean depressed people dont live alot because thier body will be tired and old age will come in 60-65

gentle pebble
bronze phoenix
#

and yall complaining a game gap????

restive oxide
#

yea

#

see

#

time skip

#

nothing new

bronze phoenix
gentle pebble
#

It’s quite common in the franchise

#

For time gaps

bronze phoenix
#

i died

#

to a forest dweller

restive oxide
#

also
if neighbor is 85 in hn3
then that means Aaron and Nicky are 48

bronze phoenix
#

who is he?

winged jungle
#

I think he shouldv stayed in 50-60 age

restive oxide
winged jungle
#

With an unhkmely look

restive oxide
gentle pebble
#

HN1 to HN2, 1 to 2 year gap and HN2 to HN3, 34 to 35 year gap

bronze phoenix

#

GUYS

bronze phoenix
#

i got a question

restive oxide
restive oxide
bronze phoenix
#

how did the neighbor survive in end of hn2

#

he could have chest damage

restive oxide
bronze phoenix
#

and he still living till 80 in hn3

restive oxide
#

but it wasn't enough to kill him obviously

night vigil
lucid crescent
#

Yup

bronze phoenix
lucid crescent
#

No pain no gain

bronze phoenix
#

it cannot kill him

#

but damage him

#

severly

gentle pebble
winged jungle
#

Will neighbor still be like, fast

#

And chase you

restive oxide
bronze phoenix
restive oxide
#

also

#

there is a lore reason why he no longer wears gloves
not just for design

#

so I'm curious to find that out

bronze phoenix
#

why is that

#

maybe he dont wanna bury

#

he quit his j*b

restive oxide
#

job

bronze phoenix
restive oxide
#

lol

night vigil
#

I like the thought of Mr Peterson just stumbling around the town. Idk, just cool seeing the neighbor actually aging

bronze phoenix
#

i KEEP DYING TO THE STUPID FOREST DWELLER

#

i cant catch a break

#

yall dead or what?

lucid crescent
#

There's a model of him already Nikita confirmed

#

Hello Neighbor 3 will take place in 2028

#

Because the neighbor is 85

signal phoenix
#

oh okay

sturdy quarry
#

I'm really looking forward to prototype 3

wide nova
wide nova
#

i thought he’s just a side character that’s just there because he was the original

wide nova
restive oxide
#

not a side character
he is still important
but remember
they only recently got a character modeller
and the game started out as RBO and didn't have the neighbor

restive oxide
#

raven brooks online

wide nova
#

oh

restive oxide
#

that's why we already had signed, iris, and jacob

#

and why the guest was made of different characters and the dweller was just simple cubes

wide nova
restive oxide
wide nova
narrow gust
#

It would be cool if their was a fire mechanic where there would be two new items: matches and lighters. They would both set objects on fire gradually taking away their health. However if an npc notices fire on their property or important locations to them, they would put it out with a fire extinguisher. matches would be less durable than lighters

earnest cape
restive oxide
#

smth like that anyway

earnest cape
restive oxide
wide nova
#

then how old is nicky

restive oxide
#

48

#

I think

wide nova
#

is he gonna have kids in hn3 or something

narrow gust
#

If he's in the game

wide nova
restive oxide
#

wait mb

lucid crescent
#

What

restive oxide
#

45

#

not 48

wide nova
#

HOLY

lucid crescent
#

He had kids already

wide nova
#

not the neighbor

earnest cape
# restive oxide wouldn't that just be hn3

Well no, HN3 is open world with that focus of Butterfly effects, actions and sandbox, I’m saying they should bring back that RBO type idea as a Singleplayer (Since they can’t do multiplayer) as a replace mode, one house that’s randomly different each run, you have one life and chance if you get caught you lose, a random objective with puzzles in the homes, basically like HN1 where you just have the house across the street, a neighbor and puzzles.

lucid crescent
#

One died
One survived

lucid crescent
#

No plans for that

wide nova
#

will nicky have kids

earnest cape
lucid crescent
#

Nicky is not returning

restive oxide
#

also chat
I just did some math
if neighbor is 85 in hn3
and 51 in 1996
that's a 34 year gap
1996 plus 34 is 2030

restive oxide
#

hn3 is in 2030 not 2028

narrow gust
earnest cape

Hello Neighbor take place at 1943

earnest cape
restive oxide
#

ooo

earnest cape
restive oxide
#

ok
so
in hn2 he is now 53

earnest cape
wide nova
#

hn3 will actually be a sequel to the ending this time unlike hn2

earnest cape
#

Well I guess his birth year was wrong from what people thought.

wide nova
#

who are you even gonna be playing as in hn3 anyways

earnest cape
earnest cape
#

I’d so be down for it to be in the game.

Yeah he’s then 44-45

Hello

mental stream
gentle cliff
#

I've found out there is a bug in prototype 2 where some cant do there tasks so they are stuck doing the same ones so this is what I've found ,all characters can sleep, all characters can use a fire to warm up, all characters can read, sighned can listen to music,sighned can use a punching bag, there might be more but I haven't found them yet

narrow gust
#

They can all use the punching bags but I didn't know they could warm up by the fire

mystic topaz
#

I forgot what was the name of it

#

I think it might have been an amusement park I forgot

dark bison
gentle cliff
narrow gust
#

oh

civic totem
#

As expected, Prototype 3 did not come out today

#

More news at 7

narrow gust
#

boo hoo

#

We all kinda saw it coming

civic totem
#

Some people clearly didn't

lucid crescent
#

#

?

earnest cape
mystic topaz
#

Ah

#

I remember there was a park Nicky went to in which he got creeped out by Theodore it was a classroom like ride

earnest cape
mystic topaz
#

Yeah

tall sorrel
#

like I don't remember the exact months myself but iirc HN1 was originally in May-June 1997?

#

and I think it's still Summer (but 1996 and not 1997) in the books

empty topaz
#

did nikita say anything about hnp3 date release?

Hello neighbor language:

hardy vine
cunning yacht
#

👏

signal phoenix
river spire
#

im fairly certain the storm is just there for the prototypes so the player has a goal

#

so you wouldnt have to worry about it in future builds

hardy vine
#

Ohhhh

#

Yeah you know what that makes plenty of sense

opaque summit
#

nah im pretty sure it has been said that hn3 would be incomplete without the storm or something

river spire
opaque summit
#

i dont either

river spire
#

just feels weird having a time limit for that kind of game

opaque summit
#

yeah i agree

#

i dont really want there to be a time limit or at least a way to disable it

river spire
#

yeah

#

like a toggle would be nice

opaque summit
#

exactly

river spire
#

so you could view and influence character interactions without the dread of the timer

opaque summit
#

it would be cool if you could do something in the weather station to disable/delay the storm

river spire
#

interesting concept

#

a in game way to influence the storm

#

using the weather station

opaque summit
#

thats what id prefer instead of disabling it in the pause menu

river spire
#

same here

river spire
#

kinda scared on how the guests ai will work with prototype 3

river spire
#

is the guest gonna like usain bolt to your location

hardy vine
#

Lol

opaque summit
#

i hope so honestly

hardy vine
#

Yeah I guess that could be a problem

river spire
#

imagine him just jumping across trees like a gorilla

opaque summit
#

id like if he did that or teleport behind trees

#

or something similar

hardy vine
#

I kind of want to be able to explore the deep woods a little bit

river spire
opaque summit
#

yeah

hardy vine
#

True

river spire
#

like if he could run into a particularly dark patch of trees

#

and run out of another one at a different spot on the map

opaque summit
#

i hope the guest will be creepy and peek from behind objects

#

thats my favorite part about him

hardy vine
#

Or maybe a swarm of crows could cover him as he teleports, or just carry him away kind of like the effects in hn search and rescue

river spire
#

fire idea

hardy vine
opaque summit
#

i think so

river spire
#

the forest dweller

#

is almost 100% the guest

#

and the guest

hardy vine
#

Fr?

river spire
#

is almost 100% the guy in the steam screenshots

#

whos really lanky

opaque summit
#

hasnt nikita also said that theres concept art for hn3 of the guest

hardy vine
#

Huh, never made the connection

#

Awesome

river spire
#

his skeleton

#

was left over for prototype 1

#

and if you look at it there

hardy vine
#

Oh cool

river spire
#

you can see a vague beak shape on the top of the model

#

like the one the guest has

#

but vertical

opaque summit
#

werent there also things named like beak_rope?

river spire
#

and furthermore

hardy vine
#

Strange.

river spire
#

the scarecrow in prototype 2

#

looks kinda like a witness description of the forest dweller/ guest

#

with the beak facing up having a face on it

#

and the statue in prototype 1 is just an old model of the guest

hardy vine
#

Cool!

river spire
#

so you can also make a correlation there

#

yeah

hardy vine
#

I kind of hope the guests design doesn't fit in with the art style of hello neighbor 3 as weird as it sounds. Because it would make him feel like he doesn't belong there even more

river spire
#

interesting point of view

#

the guests design not fitting the art style though is like

#

would that make him more cartoony?

#

more realistic?

opaque summit
#

i really like that idea

hardy vine
#

You know how everything in hello neighbour 3 has this kind of like almost unsettling "pastel" look to it? (That's the best way I can describe it sorry) maybe the guest could look more realistic, or glossy, kinda like maybe he's the only one with rtx graphics enabled lol

river spire
#

neighbor bought the 4k graphics for his model i see

hardy vine
#

Sorry I typed neighbor i meant guest lol

#

But yeah kinda smth like that maybe

river spire
#

oh

angry neighbor is so nostalgic

#

Ik man

#

Idk why they abandoned the game

#

I mean it was bad

#

but nostalgic

#

Also the creepypastas around that game 😭 🙏

opaque summit
#

i dont remember that lmao

spring flare
#

Gng ts is not tuff or scary

#

just tarnishing a guys work to make it seem “tuff”

spring flare

#

Even if it was, That is not scary lmao

river spire
#

yeah

spring flare
#

I think there was versions of the game that had malware, but the real thing didn't

narrow gust
#

I really hope the optimisation is improved in proto 3 cause right now even if I turn everything to low except shadows and global illumination my pc can barely handle it ( the reason I keep them on is because the game looks really good with it especially at night time )

#

When is p3 supposed to release? Haven't been keeping up with this game

mystic topaz
#

Possibly October release is what I'm guessing

winged jungle
#

I hope it comes to other consoles like ps

#

Full release*

#

On day one

it is coming

I think nikita is doing concept art rn

He does concept arts on his mobile and he is rn

Oh yeah

For me he's idle

#

Okk

#

That's the moon

#

He is idle now

deft snow
#

when will hn3 probably gonna come out

civic totem
#

We don't know

#

The game is literally in prototype stage rn why do people always ask that

deft snow
#

ik we dont know thats why i said probabply and potentionally

civic totem
#

If I hide to guess, it will probably release in 2028

#

Or 27

sturdy quarry
#

3028

#

or 4028

bronze phoenix
#

ME

#

i used to know it froma a long time

bronze phoenix
gentle cliff
#

I just hope the devs take their time and not rush it

#

I would also prefer less early builds if that means a good release

narrow gust
#

I feel like the unrevealed "angel" and "elderly man" are gonna be in proto 3 since they appeared to be further along in development than janusz who we know is in proto 3.

gentle cliff
narrow gust
#

Yes, they just weren't voted for

gentle cliff
narrow gust
#

Priest maybe?

gentle cliff
#

The old man might be the one looking after Issac that or The Historian could be Jacob I think

narrow gust
#

Possibly

untold grotto
#

isaac and janusz

lucid crescent
#

No they're not

narrow gust
winged jungle
#

Who's janusz

narrow gust
gentle cliff
#

We haven’t seen them yet but they will brobs be shown in devlog 3 when proto 3 releases

earnest cape
#

I like how they haven’t shown them yet, I wonder how the Vandal Gang will work and cooperate together in the game.

earnest cape
#

Both, the ones that are super detailed were paint overs that are supposed to resemble how detailed the game is gonna be, the ones Nikita sent of the same pictures that were way less detailed were the actual prototype screenshots, but it’s been a while since then and we’ve seen the map has been way more detailed than during summer so it will probably look a lot better.

gentle cliff
earnest cape
#

Makes me wonder.

lucid crescent
#

Will Theo play an important role in Hello Neighbor 3?

zinc basin
#

i wonder what tho bcause we don't see his house at all nor hos presence

tardy ocean
#

Wait gng is everyone purple and blue as a placeholder or is it final?

#

Also what it the actual art style of hn tbh my personal arts type would be either sn or hn2

tardy ocean
opaque summit
#

its for the unhomely art style

tardy ocean
#

Really? Weird design choice but ok

#

I don't really like that, but obviously it's not my choice.

lucid crescent
#

It's Nikita's option

whole obsidian
#

Bro

opaque summit
#

what

whole obsidian
#

İ say false people @opaque summit

opaque summit

i was reffering to the characters having unnatural skin colors

#

Me talk you wrongly

#

İ talk other man

opaque summit
#

oh

#

alr

tardy ocean
#

No? Is theo not a 10yr child in hn3???? Its not theory peterso it's someone else card though I'm pretty sure

signal geyser
#

Prototype 3 on the 27th!

signal geyser
#

I wish Nikita would give us more content! Otherwise, it's boring to wait for the 3rd prototype without content.

atomic forge
#

Imagine if Nikita added a secret boss, Tung Tung Sahur, to prototype 3 and it would be possible to defeat him with all characters, and if you defeat him, you would be able to get secret access to prototype 4

bronze steppe
#

yea bro atp nikita is like

atomic forge
royal solar
#

i found this painter and his work reminds me of HN 3 lol

#

its probably all the curves in the enviroment

signal geyser
royal solar
#

its about the structure

#

and the curve of the painting that reminds me of HN 3

earnest cape
royal solar
#

but also while we are on the subject i think animals would be really nice in HN 3. crows and such around would be nice

#

maybe even some wild life in the forest

#

a rare chance to see a deer wouldnt really be a bad thing

earnest cape
signal geyser
royal solar
#

birds are animals

#

😭

royal solar
earnest cape

honestly yeah i wouldnt mind them adding animals into the game it just makes it so much more realistic and alive

i mean animals are everywhere its their world we just live in it 😭 a few birds, squirrels and other animals wouldnt hurt

royal solar
earnest cape
royal solar
#

exactly yeah cool stuff like that

earnest cape
royal solar
#

for a place centered around ravens they dont really do much

#

like the concept is there why not use it

#

😭

earnest cape
#

I’d love to see them flying around in the sky, some gathered on power lines others nagging and attacking NPCs and such.

signal geyser
#

It would be cool if we could catch crows and use them later as a distraction.

royal solar
#

to have the crows actually DO something rather then just fly around or just sit and then fly away if we get close like have them interact with people and the enviroment

#

i totally agree

earnest cape
#

At the very least I just hope they return, it would be really weird that the signature thing of Raven Brooks does not return in its next installment.

signal geyser
#

The city is literally called Raven Bruks. Why are they just part of the decor?

royal solar
#

exactly yeah

#

well i guess we will see

#

we are literally just only in prototypes we have a looooong way to go

#

prototypes -> pre alpha -> alpha -> beta -> pre release -> release so they have a lot of time to just work on everything

dark bison
royal solar
#

which makes me wonder how many prototypes there are gonna be before we enter alpha

#

im guessing prototype 4 could potentially be the last prototype before pre alpha

#

i cant really see the prototypes go on after 4

dark bison
#

I think Nikita said p3 will be the last prototype

royal solar
#

did he ?

dark bison
#

I'll have to check

royal solar
#

alright if u find it lemme know

signal geyser
royal solar
#

i dont know what the last part means but also games change in development all the time

#

i mean hn being the best example

#

compare HN 2 alpha 1 to release and you are in for a shock

#

its nice to see they finally learned that the game isnt meant to be a different game each version 😭

signal geyser
#

The Hn3 looks promising, but where are the teasers of the prototype?

royal solar
#

we just got some i think like 3 days ago

signal geyser
#

It's now, so we've been waiting for half a month

royal solar
#

well i mean

#

we just got some

#

and they are pretty big

#

so i dont think we need any more

#

with pt2 we literally got like two teasers

#

so this is okay

signal geyser
signal geyser
#

I have no feelings for him.

royal solar
#

i havent been more confused

mystic topaz
#

I'm really hyped for prototype 3 ngl

royal solar
#

same here ! i think all of us are lol

#

twitter is pretty hyped too

signal geyser
dark bison

#

a post blew up a few weeks ago with 5k likes about HN 3 rn

#

calling the peterson design and HN 3 really cool

#

they have such a big chance rn

signal geyser
mystic topaz
#

I hope HN3 gets good enough to (hopefully) get some sort of nomination for an award or something so far HN had won no award nor nomination I'm placing my bets on HN3 that it will be a really great game when it comes out everything seems to be going all good and well

royal solar
#

a lot of times indie games get ignored in these big awards

#

but i mean if everything goes to plan and they actually manage to pull off this immersive town with people with personalities and everything it could be pretty good

mystic topaz
royal solar
mystic topaz
#

thats sad its like saying animation gets ignored too in award shows which mostly they do apparently iirc

royal solar
#

yeah its like how in movie awards horror isnt qualified for nominations even tho its still a genre

mystic topaz
#

Yeah

#

Its crazy how we started off from a cartoony style into a distinct style with the neighbor

#

||this is definitely the original picture btw||

royal solar
#

god the HN 1 art style gives me a headache each time i see it

mystic topaz
#

I liked hn1s artstyle I think it felt wacky and nice and it definitely fit what they were going for but I like hn2s a lot its more realistic yeah, but still keeping the essence of HN

signal geyser
mystic topaz
#

and now of course HN3

mystic topaz
blissful zinc
#

i think some of the art charm is lost in the models

mystic topaz
#

but hn1s really did kinda give me headaches too sometimes ig it was just how colorful it was lol

blissful zinc
#

also yeah

#

HN1 was too colorful

mystic topaz
#

HN2 was probably for me, less colorful but had color but not as much

#

as the first

signal geyser
#

Don't you think that the gloomy hn3 is turning into a cute cartoon with each prototype?

mystic topaz
#

Eh not really I'd say its still pretty realistic but since its a prototype things can definitely change

signal geyser
earnest cape
royal solar
#

the style will continue to evolve up to beta

#

during beta is where it should stop changing

narrow gust
#

Nikita said it will become more detailed over time but will still stay the same

royal solar
#

of course yeah the art style will evolve up to beta

#

different models, more models more details yada yada dev gumbo jumbo

narrow gust
#

I hope the big city isn't visible at first glance but can be seen just barely with a pair of binoculars

#

in the final game

#

would be a cool easter egg

high brook
#

when do yall think p3 releasing

mystic topaz
narrow gust
mystic topaz
#

only case being excluded from Hello Engineer I think

dark bison
#

what happened to the city is my question.

narrow gust
mystic topaz
#

I like the iterations of the city preferably imo hn2 it looked pretty nice hn1s looked good too

#

hn2 were 3d modeled ones while hn1s were decal I'd say

mystic topaz
#

Oh right

#

idk

high brook
#

the giant cube city in alpha 2

mystic topaz
#

Probably not with that i mean maybe if it was textured and stuff then maybe but yeah

narrow gust
#

I do think having a short game based of of nikita's giant monster prototype where you play as nicky in the big city whilst a giant neighbor representing his fear of him hunts him down would be cool.

mystic topaz
#

I agree

earnest cape

#

Yeah

as a spinoff

earnest cape
#

A prequel about him yeah.

earnest cape
#

I wonder if characters will have unique chase themes in HN3, I hope they do.

restive oxide
#

I imagine they will

#

if they have chase music at all

earnest cape
restive oxide
#

I mean
kinda like how it is now

#

This reminded me the Forest Dweller sound queue which is called “Guest Danger Zone” is literally so similar to the sound queue for The Guest attacking barricades in the Forest in HN2.

#

Should find the sound queue in HN2 to compare.

near meadow
#

so forest dweller actually is the guest

earnest cape
bronze phoenix
#

i hope the forest dweller is the guest

#

it would make sense

#

but i hope they changed forest dweller design

restive oxide
bronze phoenix
#

it looks so bare bones in the proto

restive oxide
#

I meant it's quite clearly a placeholder

bronze phoenix
#

proto 3 looks like a whole diff game

#

its hard to belive that is a prototype

#

this is a whole beta

#

imagine the full game

restive oxide
#

not a beta

bronze phoenix
#

so huge

restive oxide
#

a beta has nothing to do with quality or size
it's just a stage in development

#

so

#

:)

earnest cape
bronze phoenix
#

btw in a #work-in-progress vid i saw that a charather looks at a player then looks away. does that mean that npcs are aware?

earnest cape
#

Characters are aware and use their knowledge of the games world to make actions.

# severe merlin Hard to say at the moment

Question for Nikita not really anything regarding HN3 but how would you think looking back at HN1 have you changed through the course of the years everything looks really nice do you sometimes look back at the old games and see how far you’ve gone other than that I can’t wait for HN3 it’s looking really great and you guys are doing an awesome job Imbirheart

#

people are asking about when prototype 3 releases.
but what about prototype 4. that one has got to release soon. im sure.

bronze phoenix
#

i think he does

mystic topaz

He’s the one who came up the idea of HN

#

Yea

winged jungle
#

Like how hn1 alpha was, then full release. Graphics changed from realistic to cartoony

winged jungle
#

Yeah

bronze phoenix
night vigil
severe merlin
#

There was a reason for HN1 to change art-style back then. HN3 do not have such reasons - the art style will stay the same

winged jungle
#

Ok thanks

bronze phoenix
#

idk bout u guys

#

but this art style is OG to me

winged jungle
#

Hn3 reminds me of the og alpha days

bronze phoenix
#

it would make the game more better

winged jungle
#

Yeah

quaint talon
#

I wonder when the prototype 3 will be released

spiral atlas
bronze phoenix
#

say it here

lunar trail
#

i mean if its not hn3 related i dont think the place is here

bronze phoenix
#

if its HN related i think the server is fine

spiral atlas
#

It is HN related but its unrelated to HN3, so I was wondering if he'd be able to answer if I asked in the throwback channel

#

I don't want to just randomly ask here mid conversation

bronze phoenix
bronze phoenix
#

want me to predict again?

winged jungle
#

Oct

quaint talon
bronze phoenix
#

i think it would come out in

#

soon

#

because

quaint talon
bronze phoenix
#

the proto looks

#

finished

#

and there is only few bugs

#

so it can come out in oct

#

but im not promising

quaint talon
#

Let me check steamdb too

bronze phoenix
#

it could be wrong

quaint talon
#

Maybe they doing something now

#

Nothing

bronze phoenix
#

it supports my prediction

#

they normally nothing new which prob means they are wrapping things up

signal geyser
#

Nikita, you're spoiling us today.

#

I wonder what kind of model the forest dweller will have in the third prototype, is it as simple or more complicated

spiral atlas
#

I wonder if Nikita has a favorite character in HN3 so far

But its just a prototype

lets revive hn

#

idk how

night vigil
#

Good plan👍

bronze phoenix
#

but if the stupid 67 meme can get popular i guess what we can revive hn too

#

we need to make a meme about hn for it to get popular

#

anyone got ideas

civic totem
#

People already have their thoughts set on HN

#

They think it's a buggy, poorly designed game that has been milked into being a franchise with other bad games

#

A meme won't make people magically change their minds

#

A game that people actually like would though

bronze phoenix
#

let me think of one

civic totem
#

Memes making fun of HN? There's plenty of them

bronze phoenix
#

something else

#

idk what

#

but think with me about memes

bronze phoenix

for hn3

Two numbers that most people were indifferent about VS a game franchise that people already hate

hope he shows it in the futurer

anyways

#

want to help me revive hn

#

i think of a meme

#

but we cant make ts corny

#

we need a perfect meme

#

A meme won't revive HN lol

#

It's mostly a game franchise

#

Not a uhh idk

People would need to play an HN game they actually like for it to be "revived"
