Personal 💀
This is HN3 realated smarty in case you haven't noticed
Like Nikita could think i leaked HN3!
What are you talking about
This is exactly what i meant
Nothing more
🙄
Ok look i just beat MCSM and i was inspired by how its choices but at the same time 1st person and 3rd person and there are voice actors!!
Mcsm is SO not what hn3 is supposed to be abt
Like i can't get into No acess
no liek i like its gameplay
Even by gameplay
you think iw ant to add creepers to hello nigbhor
HN3 is an exploration game where you can interact with stuff which can have consequences to the world
EXACTLY
MSCM is just a story game
Thats not what MCSM does
AND HN3 HAS A STORY TOO RIGHT?
Its just pick a dialogue and it branches to cutscenes
What's MCSM?
I dont want the chocies
Minecraft story modes
OH
Yup, just clicked.
How is that remotely similar to HN3?
i just like hoe 50% of the time there is voice actign and 50% 3rd person fiorst person
IKR???
bye
Hello guest chapter 8 reveal pls.
i feel like hn3 should be the aftermath of hn2
me when sequl
ermmm, not to be that guy buuuuut you can see nate emg totallyyyy play through alpha 1.5 on his channel so it must be real! (this is a joke dont take it seriously)
it just occurred to me that p1 was a really tiny build
clever
😭 this is so
Hn 2 Alpha 1.5 is just a really unfinished menu
I know nothing is confirmed but Prototype 3 feels so close
It feels like the two most likely candidates for releasing it are either the 27th (close to Halloween, follows the rest of the prototypes) or just Halloween itself
I am so hyped mannnn
im gonna bet 5 dollars for prototype 3 to come out in 27th of this month
Wsp guys
Me 30
Prototype 3... Today? (Joke)
Could be today
mb
Wdym
It could be but I doubt it
I think anywhere between like now to the 31st is a fair bet
i hope nikita could give us a glance at covered
mb = may be
Nikita said something about the Guest having a model next time we see him I think
i dont think he will have a model in prototype 3 though
but i hope he does
or atleast i hope the forest dweller doesnt teleport around and catch you when your in the forest
itd be fun if he chased us down
mb
I can't find the message but I swear he said something like this
also since its halloween
i dont think wtrb is gonna come out this month
but trailer maybee
i think season 3 will come out in christmas
they could be setting up the steam page for all we know and are going to announce it at 3pm and release the dev log
ngl i hope they are but they probs nott
Yeah they're not (left is HN3 Playtest, right is the main Steam page for HN3)
It might be a little early for them to be doing steam stuff if it is today
For P2 it happened like, right before release (iirc)
I don't think it's today but yeah
They uploaded the P2 depot a day before it released, and released it while the trailer was being shown at the Connect
While I don't think P3 is coming out today, I do think that we'll get something for HN3 this week
Been a bit since Nikita was in chat too, I wonder what they've been cooking
Me too
Otto is more skinny
Same head shape
jansuz is stress eating-
also i wish they change the feet on hn3 characters
like oh god
i hope i never see how jansuz feet look like
Most HN3 characters we've seen wear shoes
Nah
Luckily I don't think that will happen
thank god
guys im bored*
remember when everyone thought P3 was coming out on september 27th lol
what ones dont wear shoes?
🧱
🧱
Idk tbh
I didn't put much thought into that message
I'M THE ONLY FAN OF JANUSZ IN THE WORLD! No, it seems to you that they look very different, I'll assume that Otto is the grandfather from the voting who was not shown to us.
yeah thats what i meant i guess i did not clarify what i meant
You clearly said that Janusz and Otto are the same character! AS A FAN OF BOTH HEROES, THIS SEEMS STRANGE TO ME.
no?
i said that jansuz looks like otto
i didnt say that jansuz and otto are the same character
that is dumb
otto is dead in hn3
He doesn't look like it! Janusz is a tall, fat, sad mutant, Otto is a long, thin man
same mustache...
head shape
maybe jansuz is ottos grandson
Gerda and the historian have the same mustache, and that makes them look alike! isn't it?
mustache?
ok im not going to work myself up
this argument is not wroth it
yes
well, like girls don't have moustaches. that's the joke.
not 100% true
I'm joking:(
You look like someone who's eavesdropping on franchise
what
Forget it, it's a dumb pun that even my dad didn't understand.
what
I'm bored
then stop being bored
lol
Good mood is the way to get 3 prototypes! Don't miss!
30 or 29 or 31 or 28 new prototype 3 trailer 😭🔥
what?
Why does the neighbor look so bad?🥀🥀
Hes like 85 years old 🥀 🥀
Real
I'm suprised you guys didnt see my ideas!
oh
OH
OH
TINYBUILD CEO IS ON
I might be cooked
.....
Uses UET
...
Eeries Guest studios is on💀
Bro the whole gang is online
Am i the only one wondering what imbir is doing in Unreal engine
Its the mustache
I have an idea suddenly
Good afternoon btw
I am afraid
good.
Intrigued, but moreso concerned
So am i
same here...
Do NOT
I wanna say hi to nikita i never met him
Stop!
DO!
literally stop
what are we talking about again?
The guy who is blue and looks like the neighhbir
Now count how many characters in the entire hn franchise have mustaches
swap em
Wdym swap em?
rig swap, texture swap.
gorillabor returns.
That was the peak of HN2 content back then
true
Ted
Quentin
Cardboard guy from H&S (X2)
Roger
Otto
Keith
Quinn
Janitor
Oh god….
You counted Quinn too???
You forgot Janusz.
also @grim lark When i ment MCSM ysterday i dont mean it like a story like you get the first person perspective and third person and like when you don't have a crowbar the charcter says go get a crowbar and What do you think about the vocies
I mean it's 2025 Tinybuild has deepcuts they're cooking so wy not take the Hello neighbor franschise to the next level
Yep
Madman
Yup
can't forget Nikita.
Characters will have full voice acting with dialogue cutscenes.
Gameplay mixes first-person exploration and occasional third-person cinematic moments (like dodge events or chase scenes).
Game direction similar to early RBO prototypes but now single-player.
Player is a new character (not Jacob or Iris).
Jacob is a friendly NPC that can be befriended by giving him food.
Iris is another NPC, similar to Jacob, who can also be befriended.
Signed is a mysterious character who may be the Vandal, possibly attacks during storms.
Theodore Peterson (Neighbor) returns with a new design.
The Guest returns with a new design.
Forest Dweller, Coned, and Covered may appear as side antagonists or environmental threats.
Quentin from the animated series might return, voiced by his original actor.
The story takes place in a half-abandoned Raven Brooks with simulated citizens.
Every character acts based on personality and circumstances.
The game emphasizes exploration and discovery over reaching a single goal.
Player’s actions ripple through town and change events.
Dynamic weather and storms that trigger supernatural events.
Voice lines for Jacob and the player (possibly Iris too).
Signed appears during storms, may damage the player’s house.
Prototype 1 could focus on storm mechanics, basic AI, and first contact with Signed.
Future prototypes expand to the forest and introduce the Guest and Iris.
Cutscenes can feature cinematic camera movement and limited choices.
Town NPCs follow schedules, creating a “living” sandbox feel.
Events change depending on who you befriend (Jacob, Iris, or both).
Hidden clues and coded messages left by Signed around town.
Radio broadcasts hint at previous Raven Brooks incidents.
Theodore and Guest may appear in hallucination-like scenes before full reveal.
Oh i got alex's attention
Anybody with tinybuild role pls don't get mad at me
i can't see irt
its singleplayer
Single player
He is
please
don't ever let me get an idea ever again
janusz arc
why are his arms just straight out like that
a-pose
because
Now make Otto Janusz.
imagine if nikita saw this/reacted to this
pelase neikitoka
bro has jaundice
the more I think about this photo the more I see waluigi in it
valid.
Cool art though
thx
no problem
anything neww ?
its actually not.
where did this come from?
nooooo
it's really not that rare. theres nothing special in them being online, they work.
:( ok
Where is the cartoon and the prototype:(? Halloween in 10 days
Hear me out : 30 or 27 of October new prototype and the cartoon

I kinda doubt that they would release them at the same time
But both of them are pretty close to being finished soooo
thats whats so special
i dunno about the cartoon releasing in 30 october maybe somewhere like early or late november or december
hi guys, please go see this video : https://youtu.be/6Qmp4bJEkkk?si=d_EPXmrjptqksvGK
Here's some of my thoughts about hello neighbor 3, and what I'd potentially like to see in the game!
its not my video, but nikita has to see this
ok
nothing special either
is hydrogen trinitrogen (HN3) confirmed?
what is bro even talking about
Game ideas ig
Hear me out, could we ever play as Aaron?
Only in the vr game, for just two minutes
Wouldn't it be cool if we could in 3 too but like spying on the crow?
It wouldn't fit the story
Is there even a complete story yet? After one ending on 2 we see Aaron helping the neighbour and the crow attacking the player,so maybe the neighbour will let Aaron move freely again but he'll want to find out who the crow is?
Or that could be a different game
I'm saying that it wouldn't fit Hn3, because the story is about the player intruding into a town. It wouldn't make sense to be Aaron, because the Peterson family tree has quite a big reputation in Raven Brooks. It's most likely that Hn3's protagonist would be a completely new to the series character.
Fair point, Will the neighbour be someone who can catch you that old? Or run towards you
neighbor might play some sneaky tricks to slow you down
because he cant run
Thanks
It would be a good idea to add a mill
The Mill is not coming back
:(
Ah yes rumble of the mill how could i forget
I would like that I would really like to see that because I love Aaron a lot
Why the hell does the game look like an 2001 game 
wdym
didn't ya see the trailer ?
yess but thats not the full game
it the prototype
unfinished and literally the first stages in developent
No clearly the prototype is just part of the name so we will get hello neighbor three prototype 3 as part of the hello neighbor three trilogy
what?
is that meant to be sarcastic
have to hope so, lest that person look kind of dumb
could we play as the narrator?
hmm
Ненснямчна

Мельнчуе
If they don’t release p3 in October the games gunna die done and I’m going to scream
Nikita he ha it’s been awhile right he ha
If it's not in October it's totally gonna be on Christmas or... Thanksgiving. 🙄
thanksgiving is when we all give thanks to Nikita for releasing p3
LOL
real.
If it's not on Christmas I will be chris pissed.
p3 hasnt even dropped and i just had a dream about p4💀 😭
No way there will be a prototype 4.
there will be thirteen prototypes, one alpha, and then the full release
I hope so lest I look dumb
Christmas!
Christ mas of the year 2028
😒 im gonna throw a christmas tree at somebody
ijbol can we at least hope for this year when it comes to prototype 3 😭
It better be on Christmas.
noo girl it better be sooner
The longer it takes the better the prototype will be.
true
ITS LITERALLY FINISHED
😭
bug fixes should no take that long
The cake may have been baked but they have yet to put the frosting on top.
Prototype 3, probably the last, and most significant one.
that doesnt change the fact this prototype should have been out by now 😭 especially when its finished i cant imagine bug fixing taking this long
especially on a prototype which is literally the simplest of the simple
The bug:
knowing HN the bugs are the best part most of the time 🙂↕️
Eat a Hello Neighbor popsicle in the meantime.
well sadly its too cold for that so no
what if proto 3 will become the next LoSt VeRsIoN
im going to pelt these popsicles at eerie guest studios members /j
dont give them ideas
😭
sorry lmao
Winter and Fall is like the best time for cold deserts because it doesn't melt instantly?
yeah if you wanna have a cold 😭
it is kinda alpha 2 quality
and it IS also the 3rd build
alpha 2 was the third build aswell
Please MORE bug fixing, I need this thing polished.
im gonna care about bugs when they reach beta rn it doesn not need intensive polishing
oh no...
yall remember how clanky the first builds of HN 2 were
or even HN 1
yeah those were alphas this is a prototype it does not need to be polished
😭 of course fix the big bugs that makes sense but lets be real here
At this rate they're probably either waiting for a specific date or are working on the Devlog
if they were to polish every single build like this then the final game would come out in 20 years 😭 these early builds are prototypes for a reason
i think so too tbh
i mean....
halloween is right there yk
i get that HN 3 is not a horror game but come onnn its perfect
yeah ik, thats one of the first things i thought when i woke up lol. I was like "in what world would there even be four prototypes?"
How is hn 3 not a horror gane
🥀
hn was never a horror game-
On steam hn says horror
And they advertised it as a horror
So hn1 is horror but the other games arent thats stupid
indie horror game
i didnt say that hn1 is the only horror game in the franchise
hello guest is in my opinion the spooky scary horror game in the franchise
Uhm HN 3 Is advertized as a cozy yet eerie adventure not as a horror game
Thats pretty Basic information
So there wont be any stealth?
Would you call genshin impact a horror game????
we are not even on the alphas and yet your asking if theres stealth
Im talking about when u enter a house u will have to be sneaky
Cuz rn its very ez
Prototype 3 will prob also be ez
Is genre up to the players or the developer/publisher?
probably since proto 3 was made more for
developing the map
or layout
i dont think proto 3 also focuses on the ais
That will be proto 4 trust
i dont think there will be a prototype 4
i think we will just jump into alpha 1
but who knows
Also proto 3 is def done they just want to wait till halloween bc more youtubers will make vids on it that day
😡
No, Christmas I swear!
sigh
nikita said 20 times that hes just fixing bugs before releasing proto 3
Imagine you see a lawnmower with a christmas hat lmao
and hes also working on the devlog
DEVLOG
^
DEVLOGGER
Nikita: Hey guys, back with another dev vlog. Today we talkin bout the guest.
What if the guest is the neighbors we made along the way?
what
What if instead of the Neighbor being inside a guest costume, it's the guest inside a neighbor costume?
the guest is a bunch of neighbors?
That's why the hair is the wrong color, the guest is stupid.
Hes secret neighbor,pre alpha neighbor,hn 1 neighbor,hn 2 neighbor,hn 3 neighbor,nickys diares neighbor,vr search and rescue neighbor,hide and seek neighbor
the guest is a entity thats shaped like the neighbor
i dont think the guest is every single negihbor
Omg the guest was in alpha 1 omg!
What if the guest is wearing a guest costume
i don know
Now we know what underwear he wears
This helps us solve the mysterys about the guest
Hello Neighbor was planned entirely from the start...
i think that drawing was supposed to represent the neighbor
WAIT
before he went insane
but thats new story
The neighbor is the guest evidence:
What if maya died from the fall and got reincarnated as the guest
Good theory guys
devil plot was till alpha 1 then it was father and son thing with nicky and neighbor then new story
guest probably digged up mayas body and swallowed it
any news about the release
What if the neighbors brother is secretly the guest he wore his brothers skin all his life
the guest is a creature that targets the neighbors entire family
the reason his wife died
the guest
why did maya get pushed by aaron
the guest
Lmao
I doubt that is the guest tho since the whole town is covered in ravens but funny
Personally I like to believe the guest true form is of a mannequin and hes just covered in the whole raven attire
Many may not believe it
But I can dream
Tylenol?
When do you think we'll get some news on hn3/wtrb?
Why should they do extensive bug fixing for a Prototype?
Prototype 3 is actually full release! 😮
no it is not
Didint they say that the map and overall goal will stay similar to prototype 3 in the full Realese ?
😭 some of you dont know a joke if it flew past you omg
they said the map will be relatively the same going forwards but they will update it and make it better through the prototypes and alphas and beta
makes sense yeah i mean they gotta replace all the temp models
like the trees and other basic geometry stuff
yeah
which honestly cant wait to see HN 3 in its fullest potential
me to!
honestly the nature are my fav parts of HN games HN 2 had such beautiful visuals when it came to nature
i hope HN 3 comes close or even better
Same
when the art style finally gets finalized and we will see all the custom assets it will be so peak
ikr
Yeah
i still hope they add more colours to the palette
rn its just brown but i really hope they add more colours to the nature palette
yeah
for example what i kinda liked in prototype 1 was that there were trees with really weird colours like blue and purple
I personally think that the color palette is good
PLEASEE keep that in full release
was there?
there isnt much to it its just brown and other shades of brown
like some greens, oranges, purples and blues
yeahh
ohh alr i didnt notice while playing p1
they are kinda hidden away but they are there
The prototypes hurt my eyes for some reason.
maybe brightness ?
yeah they defo need to add gamma
Yeeeeees
Mill looks like HN1 house
Ahh nostalgia
False
so nothing new about hn3 i guess
i wonder did this guy ever leave raven brooks last time we saw him he didn't leave
it would be cool if he made a return some how
The game ends with him shooting the neighbor.
lol
I thought about for my hn3 mod
For my mod he still stuck around
I hope Nikita shows us the craziest teaser ever when he starts chatting here again
It's a model of him in the game hanging out with Mr. Peterson.
Lol
Nikita would randomly come into chat and be like "hey guys I got something to show you" and then just drop prototype 3
It's him putting on the guest costume, Nikita is the guest.
if ge does it will be fire🔥
imagine him doing that after you said that
i mean he is online
hi
hi
I think nikita is the guest and the neighbor. He is just wearing a costume.
who agrees???
lol
The real Mayak was inside of us all along who agrees?????
The real Mayak was the friends we made along the way
Not Christmas yet.
Really. I though it was christmas😢
Well, Nikita hasn't talked in a while, so P3 or Devlog 3 could be getting fully finished right now
yeah i bet their releasing tommorw 27th or hallloween
wdym tommorow
No confirmed date but it really could be anytime soon
I mean ya now I'm thinking abt it there might be a chance on any day. Who knows I bet nikita will usually say it the day before.
The game is canned and now we must wait for HN5
HN3 should be renamed to Hello Neighbor 4 like what Goat Simulator 3 did.
lol
fr lol and why did they skip the 2 game lol
Wdym

hi
Hi
hey he is indeed online :)
P3 should hopefully come on Halloween
The amount of gifs for this is stupidly funny
bro i just found an artist that literally replicates how finished HN 3 looks like in my head (art by lizon_breketon)
like this is how i imagine finished HN 3 looking like
like it has that vibe i would love to see for the game
I saw the first image and thought we got a new teaser for a second
HAHAH IM SORRYYY
my twitter loves giving me HN 3 like art and its soo yummy
makes me pray for enviroments like this
(artist is robbie aldis) LIKE HELLOOO I CAN SEE THIS BEING IN HN 3
just these foresty areas i need it sooo bad
man my hope for HN 3 is unmatched yall dont even knowww
man i hope we get like small rivers HN 3 with bridges like that
dude that looks so good
I do for sure think a densely forested area would pair quite well with the map and overall style. I also just really want that lol
yess i agree sm
i mean HN 3 always gave me that vibe like give me a giant forest area and i will be happy
like yk theres the town of course but i hope they are off town locations
like for example the field that was in prototype 2 like lemme go there
historian lives in there for sure
for sure
i can see that being her house
i swear houses like these to me are so explorable
but sometimes in game its just 3 or 4 rooms'
yeahhh
and they are always so mysterious in a way
i mean its a house in the middle of the woods
Micah
HN and Red Dead crossover when
It wouldnt work at all but itd be funny
Bro seeing the neighbor hold a revolver would be scary
the first image reminds me for some reason
of the hn1 concept art of the road intro
where pre alpha man is seen at the window using his binoculars
NOW!!! WHO OF YOU IS WITH ME AND WHO IS THE SECRET NEIGHBOR
I lowkey feel so bad for mr peterson in hn3
He's literally an old man, still living in the decrepit town that took everything from him
im pretty sure aaron is still alive
but he might die in the middle of the game because of the guest
Is he still living with him?
Do you think we might see a truly loving bond between them?
yeah
what is the neighbor gonna do
fight him
he cant
i know the neighbor still hates him for murdering his daughter
It was an accident
What?
Since hn vr i don't understand why the guest is so interested in aaron
No, the cult was targeting mr peterson and his family because they thought he was on to them
And with wtrb he probably was
i dont think the neighbor knew anything about them
i only remember there being a wall filled with stuff
as if he was trying to figure out how did his wife die
or why did his daughter die
Also hn 3 kinda changes the tone of the franchise completely
Like
How did raven brooks go from classic American suburbs to an eastern European village
Like it all seems like my countryside house here at the balkans
Ig its because nikita really took inspiration from his childhood in Russia
yeah ig
Thats like living with your drunk dad which beated you with the belt as a kid
Aaron so STUPID
😃 jesus christ that is a comparison
Bagger, Journalist!.. cmon think, think for yourselves.
hes lying!! hes the secret neeeighbor!
crowfaces up ahead
shiyet
THIS AGENT LESLIE WITH THE FOREST PROTECTORS! PUT DOWN YOUR ENERGY MILKS!
i hope there is a teaser tommorow
Thats such a black circle
bro the neighbor look hellah tired, also, is the main char gon be the same as hn2 ? or hn1 ?
we don't know yet but what is known is the protagonist of HN3 will be entirely new and have no connection, history, nor reason to be in Raven Brooks
i mean the story could change remember hn2 alpha 1 and then hn2 full release
True anything can happen
its amazing how these mimic the artstyle
when will be hn3 prototype 3?
We don't knowwwww
bruh
That's what im saying
yeahhh its interesting how well it fits
i love when my twitter just gives me art like that
makes me very excited about HN 3
Hn 3 is life is strange but with sneaking
Hear me out:
There is a storm coming to destroy the town,
You can be friends or enemies with the townfolk
And you uncover the secrets of the town, which includes missing ppl
mhm
a river with a house on the other side looks nice i think that would fit hn3 really well
like it has nostalga makes me fell uneaseasy like a river or like a lake would be cooll in a hn game i think their was only a lake out of bounds in hn1 and hn1 alpha 4
nikita.....
This rabbit again..
The Clocks Ticking Tick Tock Tick Tock The mouse ran up the Clock... Tick Tock Tick Tock
Bro let them have their time
Nikita on phone alarm
5 months
We had to wait longer for a Hello Neighbor 2 build BTW
its like we are all joking
😭 you guys take this chat way too seriously
lol
i just want hn3 to release so i see who the main char is or who knocked down the guy from hn2 
I kinda doubt we will know who our character is in prototype 3
But I'm sure we will in an alpha 1
it wont tell u its completly diffrent to hn2 its like 40 years later
dang it so he's dead ?
?mabye
DANG IT
We know
He looks so...
Abandoned
That's the only way to describe it
Like a worn building
Rip the neighbor when someone throws a box at him in hn3.
Yeah
The block out models aren't even block outs, they aren't blocks.
Nikita said they did I believe
pretttyy sure block out doesnt mean TOTALLY blocks
what if the neighbor in the banner is a paint over of the model???
Probably not. I feel like we might see his blockout in prototype 3 though.
i feel hn3 coming close no teasers means its coming soo so we wont need anymore teasers
why would they put us 40 years later ???
hmmm
Imagine if hn1 main char and hn2 main char meet 
Quite an odd thing to call Nicky and Quentin.
85
if you think about it from hn1's perspective, it's only 11 years after act 3
30
HN3 is in 2028, HN1 and HN2 were in 1996 , but are most likely now in 1994.
maybe they will meet ? we dont really know 👀
no still 1996
only neighbor's birthday has been moved
So. The Neighbor now had Aaron at 40 y/o ? And is 53 in HN1 and HN2 instead of 51.
yes

53 but still able to book it towards people at full speed
nicky is canonically really fast at running too at least in the books
mr peterson is one healthy dude
Wait does this game take place while nicky is having that act 3 nightmare
I was wrong lol
Act 3 happens in 2017 while hn3 happens on 2028
But nicky is grown up
Same as the neighbor
No neighbor is baby👍
If the game comes out 27th the date might mean something in the story right
thats how these games like to play🤔
It means Nikita's a Weird Al fan

hamterdore teetherson
maybe it will come in december xd
its christmas right now my friend
: D
happy new year too
happy birthday!
we can keep going if you want xd
happy day
imagine they introduce mr peterson in prototype 3 in a similiar way to the hn2 alphas
He's stuck on a part of the Golden Apple amusment park and the player gets eaten by the gest when they free Mr Peter Griffin Son
Who, Chris?
Yeah sure... Sure yes of course why not yes yes yeah yes
I think the games expected release is in 2028 due to that being when the game takes place
if p3 doesnt realese on monday i think we will at least have a sneak peek
if it don't ima stop waiting
whats with the 27th? did you guys just randomly decide the release date?
People always use that date because Prototype 1 and 2 came out the 27th day of the months
That's it really
Why didnt it release on september 27 then? Dumb theory tbh.
Or it could as well be on nov, dec 27.
Or it could be on march 2026 27.
Yep

I wouldnt be surprised
Yeah, I mean, the 27 thing could've easily been a coincidence
it probably is
If it happened more than 2 times, then sure, maybe it isnt. But it's only 2 times for now
Mhm
it 100% is unless Prototype 3 actually does drop on the 27th
even then though
that could also be a coincidence if it happens
hn3 may or may not be going through dev hell 
yes, but less likely
really..? I thought it was doing pretty good
I don't think it is
I don't think it's going through dev hell
to me that's a sign that they're actually taking their time with HN3
and that it'll be higher quality
well I dont think it is, not yet, that's too early. At least not that big of a dev hell, because the scope of the project isnt that big yet. But I think that's expected to happen with this game. AI may be the primary reason, tbh
It doesnt mean anything tbh
I disagree
But the lack of updates keeps me concerned.
We got teasers this month bro
I honestly don't see why
they can't spoil everything
hn1 technically two? pre-prototype
and everything they deemed unspoiler worthy they probably already have teased
not spoiling, but showing off like... ai updates? that stuff
Theres been a big gap in teasers, they only recently started to do that again
And other info too
ok maybe thats gonna be devlog stuff
and thats been in the works for like over 6 months
or something
At least 2 of those gaps happened because Nikita got sick
is Nikita the only one in the team?
No
...? so?
🤷
It could also be anyone else giving us teasers.
Nikita is the one who directs and informs
he directs HN3 and informs us on it's progress
he is in control of what can and cannot be shown
And he's uh, the main concept artist and the creative director of HN3
he's alluded to the possibility of Peterson already having a model, but obviously he isn't going to reveal it
or even directly confirm it
It could also be anyone else giving us progress information, again. doesnt necessarily have to be him. anyone else really. alexander?
i mean tbh he did. not directly, but he did.
alluding to the possibility does not mean it's a direct confirmation
sure thing
it's not decisive evidence because for all we know he could have said it for when the model does get made
have we gotten any dates on the devlog? at least vaguely
Nikita has said he doesn't give dates
It's because they don't want to give people false expections or smth like that
They are being very careful with what they show and say after what happened with HN2
HN2 was a lesson on not to promise stuff that doesn't seem exactly possible to achieve
Yep
I think you misunderstood the whole thing
They're going to ditch an entire concept just because they "didn't promise" it, they are being careful with what they show and say to avoid an HN2 situation
Will the style change when it releases? (Because I'm scared)
Nobody knows.
Devlog 3 releases: Half way through Nikita casually shows a timelapse of the neighbors model being made whilst talking about hn3's color pallet or smth ( without addressing it btw ).
lol
Did they make the 3d model?
Aye dumb question, but is this game gonna be connected to the other games or is it a soft reboot?
It takes place in the future, but is connected.
Its still ravenbrook tho, so is it like far future then since everything looks so different?
HN1 to 2 also looks pretty different
like Nicky's house with that turquoise color is just gone entirely
the layout of the neighborhood is completely different too
that's just the nature of game design
things like that are gonna change
Hey
Yeah but it all looked vaguely similar, HN3 looks super different which isn't a bad thing, I like the new style actually, I'm just curious how it'll all tie together
They took it in the divorce.
Hi, i find this today https://youtube.com/shorts/saNCJFw2t_4?si=qNt4zlyUB7ueK4dM
Did you know what the gramophones do in Hello Neighbor Act 3 on the Roblox version? They're not just there to drive the neighbor crazy—lol. The green one is easy to find, but the red one? I’ll help you out! One shrinks trees, the other makes them grow! Try it on the bush in front of the house... All right, now...

this isnt on topic, not the right place to post this
I wonder if the forest protectors will be explored further in HN3, They’re a really cool concept for this franchise and It’s unfortunate how heavily they’ve been sidelined in the main games, They’ve shown their worth in the animated show and books, They deserve to be in the main games. (I know they were technically in Hello Neighbor 2 but they weren’t all that well introduced and utilized)
I have a theory.
Could it be that the huge differences between the first, second, and third games in their maps, graphics, and overall style are simply because of the person we play as?
Nikky saw everything in a childish way because he grew up there, and that place felt familiar to him. Quentin, on the other hand, was an investigator who arrived from outside, so in the second game everything looks more refined and serious just like he perceives it.
In the third game, yes, everything seems ruined and the village looks half-abandoned, but I think there’s a reason for that: it’s because of the player. The player believes it’s a scary and very strange place.
In every game, we’re seeing this world through someone else’s eyes
Nope
Are we, though? 🙂
Ask away, my friend. As people highlighted in this conversation we just not saying “game will be this… or that” rather “we hope to achieve this … or that” and show only things that we already did and which work. We have pretty clear idea on what we want game to be and we figuring out how to achieve this.
This is actually a very good idea for hn 3, saying things that you know are achievable
Hey nikita
Will Prototype 3 came out on Halloween?
Dude chill, i'm like 75-80 percent sure sure the artstyle is different every game because it's based off what the player character sees, not the player themselves, if that makes any sense...
Well, speaking from a technical standpoint, the art style is a tool to deliver certain feelings and aspects. Like style of music.
Let’s compare visual style of Psychonauts, for example, and the Last of Us. Both games can’t switch styles between each other. Because wacky style of Psychonauts helps to deliver comedic and surreal nature of the game. While extremely realistic TLOU delivers grounded, emotional, personal story.
Same goes for HN
will devlog 3 talk about the artstyle more?
now seeing screenshots of prototype 3 it invokes the feeling of uncanny familiarity only in the places where it looks rural
heres an abandoned building from a village that i think would fit into hn3
I think we had enough art talk already, havent we
I'd rather the devlog talk about mechanics and technical aspects
I'm looking forward to the butterfly effect in P3
So you guys are not sharing going to show things unless you 100% know theyre achievable? 
dont get me wrong, im not calling work that you guys put in your creation bad or anything, in fact I have higher hopes for this one than for the other games this studio put out
i know youre probably not going to answer this, but is devlog 3 going to have talks about AI or not? or do you think the thing you showcased in previous devlogs is currently enough?
We talk and show stuff that are in progress but we say that we not sure it it will work. We just avoid giving promises.
We will cover AI in the upcoming devlog definitely.
Such a big gap between last update and now is for two reasons:
- We still trying to figure out best approach to share information in a meaningful way while also spend enough time to working on the game
- This stage turned out to be much harder than we anticipated. We took a big fundamental AI-behavior chunk. Basically, to build a tools and foundation for the game. But this chunk stuck in our throats 🙂 What we thought to finish in two month, took us two times more and there are still thing in the backlog we will return later to.
Btw is the ai the reason why the optimisation isn't that great in p2? Or is it the realistic artsyle? Or something else? And will this be fixed in p3?
Oh! Nikita, are you planning to make the town easy to navigate? Or close and more confusing and easy to get turned around in?
Like taking a wrong turn down a street and ending up in some wet dingy part of town you've never visited before (i mean it probably depends on the size of the map and the npc's)
How will the neighbours iconic blue house look like in hn3?
Or will it be the same house?
Im not sure thats a question he can answer but i agree, im super excited to see how it looks
am i the only éne who hates hello neighbor 3 art style?
This is the best artstyle tinybuild ever did. For me
Or EGS
Eh🤷♀️ fair i suppose, i personally love it but we all have our own tasts ig
it looks great but.. idk i just liked the cartoonish and stylized and beutiful hn2 (not hn1 that game looks bad)
Yeah i do kinda agree, but also i like how it looks now, i love them both for wildly different reasons
I think there going more towards a realistic artstyle rather than cartoony artstle every game.
i just think it looks like an average good graphics game on unreal 5.
Fair
Makes sense
When i look at villages and old houses i always remember and think about hn 3 i dont know its good or bad
Do the unfinished buildings have interiors but with no furniture etc. Or are they just simply blocked off from the player?
Current unfinished buildings allows you to walk in, but there's just nothing inside.
Thing is, building themself not really "unfinished", but rather in "unknown" state. They now play role of placeholder. After P2 we realized it's easier to removed houses than add new ones. So we sketched out general map concept to work within this layout.
When we will start to fill out the world with content, some houses could be changed, removed or added.
Hi Nikita. Just wanted to ask If Tinyclub will get any HN3 teasers?
I don't think he knows
I'm pretty sure the people who post teasers to tinyClub are the community managers and Alex CEO
Yeah
But last time a tinybuild worker told nikita about giving something to tinyclub members. And we got one like a few weeks later
They aren't responding to us anymore 😭
There was a tinyClub-exclusive HN3 teaser once?
Ah, I see
İt a false informations
It isn't
Yes me not
Exactly
Ik, he helped us get one tho
How
.
Bro why tinybuild worker tell nikita send tinyclub nikita not post tinyclub things
what is left of p3 to finish
Because they didn't give us one in a year. And we told him. Because we're just wasting our money then.
Minor bug fixes
Bro alex post tinyclub things
Not just him. We told a person from tinybuild. (Tiny Jay). Then he told nikita to try and help us get a teaser.
But he still works for TINYBUILD
Yes so what?
And helped us get a teaser
Bro no everyone in tinybuild send tinyclub you just make info
How you know this then
Bro you just make fake info and then say you not in tinyclub
Karvilax always thinks everything is false info
Because there no proof and you just say nonsense
You can't see Because. YOUR NOT IN TINYCLUB
Bro there new tinyclub post not mean it from nikita
He's been typing for like, 40 minutes
İ agre
Lol
Hello
I have Two questions about our character in HN3.
1: is our character meant to have their own story like Nicky and Quentin or is it a blank canvas type of character where we can imagine ourselves as that character?
2: how is our character meant end up in the town in the full game?
İt spoilers.
I was thinking that myself. I was going to ask about the games progression but I couldn't think of a good way of asking about that so I decided to ask about the player character instead.
I see
whats tiny club
If you get a yt subscription. Tinybuild channel. You could get teasers
Like hn3 or wtrb s3
thank you
Np
There no hn3 teaser though
when P3 needs more time its not problem whe need more information for the game or sneak peeks
1 - Kind of in-between. Protagonist have some sort of story but should be able to play some sort of canvas role. Just not entierly blank.
2 - Can't say. It's a story related question
How big of a role will the neighbor have in the third game?
Btw, do you know the reason why the optimisation in the first 2 prototypes were not good? Like is it because of the realistic artstyle? Or mabye even the AI of the characters? And Will this problem be fixed in prototype 3?
probably because that wasnt their priority
i dont think the neighbor will have a really big role
as he will probably be another character to mess around with
although he might have a dedicated section to his hosue in hn3 i think
dose the mayak station have a weather controller?
What's your hardware, btw?
P3 not going to be better optimized than P2. Turned out NPC are very CPU-bound and it took our engineers a lot of work to level out performance to a good enough place for now (in comparison to 2 fps we had after turned on all the character on the map). We have plans for future optimization.
Pretty big, it's all I can say
will the neighbors house be like in act 1
oh wait that one burned down
whoops
im curious will the neighbor have a big house
or a act 1 like house
To be honest. I don't really know. I played on a 1000 dollar laptop. And I got around 20 fps on medium settings. Not really playable. If I put it on low it would get me around 40-50 fps. I don't think I will be able to play prototype 3, just because of that. But I will watch like every ytuber play it lol 😂 Its like the cheapest 120hertz laptop I could get
footage of my old laptop barely handling prototype 1 😭
im so grateful i got a new pc
Yes, exactly like that but in p2 when I put medium settings
hiii
ill try now on my new pc
barely is a stronngg word girl that almost turned into a rocket
😭
yeeahhh 😭
this is better LOL
i wonder if nasa computers can run hn3 prototype 2 on full settings
tbh ever since i got those godly settings here i run it at 60-70 fps
im so happy
i lowkey CANNOT wait for neighbor to be in the prototype pls i need to befriend him
this makes me like horrified tho because like if there are more NPCS and they are very CPU tied
what if a nasa computer tried running an unoptimized version of hn3
chernobyl 2.0
ignore my mom talking in the backround lmao
FRRR
dayum
✨
and it still looks gorgeous
REAL
i hope we get to see that soon i cant wait what they will do with it
while HN 3 is a sandbox for us its also a sandbox for the devs because they can literally do anything they want since the game isnt really tied to HN 2
you have no clue how loud i yelled when i saw janusz (it's a polish name and I'm from poland 😭)
what's ur fav character from hn3??
the tree
UHM... thats nice... i think!! 
you only see the neighbor in act 3 while you're dreaming, nicky just doesn't know what the neighbor looks like and sees him as he did in 1996
NOO WAY
im from czechiaa
we are country neighborss
rnn its iris
Part of me wants a arcade game were you are chased by the guest/neighbor/forest dweller/forest protecter
what im asking is this what was going on while he was dreaming?
nah the neighbor has gray hair in act 3 trust
