nicky diaries

its all lore

[compact slate]

he looks like some kind of stand user in jjba

[stoic monolith]

Does it kinda bother anyone on how the vandles should see?

[small patrol]

no

[unborn fox]

Wait Nikita reacted to this?

[small patrol]

they hide their faces for a reason

[opaque summit]

i guess lol

[wild girder]

Why can I picture Signed's full finished model (assuming that the one we have is a blockout) is ready but it wasn't in the vote because it's obvious that he would've won.

[small patrol]

english

😭

[modest canopy]

never

[stoic monolith]

But how can they see

Atleast have some eye holes

[thick tendon]

Hi

[unborn fox]

I think characters and their designs tell their personalities like covered hides her face because she's insecure

[small patrol]

idk but its similar to office keith

[modest canopy]

😺 im going to make roblox commission

[stoic monolith]

Ah hea truee

[eager glade]

gaah i want to see the covered face pinterest photo

[small patrol]

u do realize if the town recognized the vandals without any cone head they would get kicked out of the town

yk

they do this to stay hidden while living in the city

so its a clever idea

imo

dude

💔🥀

[sterile sphinx]

Why are the characters still coloroful

Like

Skin color

[small patrol]

aliens

[sterile sphinx]

Pleasse make them have normal skin

[small patrol]

tbh idk

[sterile sphinx]

Its not that tough

No

[small patrol]

i agree

[sterile sphinx]

The coned

[small patrol]

i agree with her

[sterile sphinx]

THE CONED HAS BLUE SKIN

[unborn fox]

What about it serving multiple purposes? I mean we barley know what the townfolks are aware of

[small patrol]

but in my perspective they're trying stay hidden and do vandalism and still live in raven Brooks

[untold grotto]

stylistic choice to achieve the uncanny atmosphere

[small patrol]

reminds me of half life 2

[blissful river]

The new model is peak. It looks great.

[small patrol]

but the skin color looks unrealistic

[unborn fox]

m

[small patrol]

tbh

[sterile sphinx]

yea

like

[small patrol]

it doesn't fit hn vibes

[royal solar]

well its not meant to be

thats the style

[sterile sphinx]

or wat

[unborn fox]

I'm so smart and intelligent.

[sterile sphinx]

[unborn fox]

Imagine if he reaches the text limit ✌️

[sterile sphinx]

itd better than full game tho

[sterile sphinx]

lol

[small patrol]

same

we got hn3 before gta 6

[sterile sphinx]

prototype revived being better than full game is wild tho

the fangame

[small patrol]

agreed

[severe merlin]

Yes, I touch upon it in devlog ep1.
In a nutshell - I had an idea for a multiplayer game with the Hello Neighbor essence in it (freedom, system-based world, sneaking in to houses etc.). I named it RBO (for myself basically)
At very early we discussed the concept and I started to make prototype, during which we decided to make it as HN3.
Then we figured that due to technical and gameplay reasons to make it coop game (instead competition).
Then we understood that we progression very slowly (we never created an multiplayer game before).
To be able to make a game in the given amount of time, we decided to go with the different game concept and repurposed some advancement to single-player game.
And now, here we are.

[small patrol]

i remember....

[sterile sphinx]

huh

absolute cineama is not allowed?

[unborn fox]

Why is the game set so farther into the future, Will it serve a purpose or is it just a continuity choice?

[eager glade]

will we get weekly hn3 stuff?

[small patrol]

wowie

so

[unborn fox]

What

[small patrol]

co op was impossible

and hn3 was born

🔥

🥀

[simple dragon]

Will you ever release gameplay from the version you guys created before switching games as i assume alot of people still would want to see it even if it is scrapped

[small patrol]

it was in proto 1 I thin

devlog*

[oblique parcel]

Hey Nikita i wanted to ask is the guest voice finalized?

[severe merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-bean-why-not-both-meme-gif-27513036

[azure tartan]

Will we have prototype 4?

[sterile sphinx]

[violet mulch]

[eager glade]

Ohhh

[mortal dove]

I keep missing the votes 😔

[eager glade]

probably not

[azure tartan]

🙏

[violet mulch]

Alpha?

[unborn fox]

This is interesting

[eager glade]

Yes

[severe merlin]

Well, nothing is ever finalize until it's release.
But Guest's voice is more or less where it needs to be.

[mortal dove]

love the final coned model. It looks amazing looking forward to seeing the other character models

[azure tartan]

Why does the neighbor's house change rooms every time "Hello, Neighbor" appears?

[violet mulch]

[small patrol]

what does this mean?

[untold grotto]

gameplay and narrative elements

[small patrol]

noooo

[unborn fox]

Also are more characters final model versions made, Or only the previous 3 you mentioned?

[peak solar]

If I had to guess, it's the 3 characters from the poll so far

[icy notch]

Well it would be pretty boring if every game the house stayed the exact same

[small patrol]

SO

[azure tartan]

hmmm, Some people are saying that Hello Neighbor 3 takes place after Act 3 of Hello Neighbor 1, I disagree because in Act 3 the neighbor's house practically doesn't exist (I'm talking about the house in the first cutscene).

[small patrol]

WE WILL

Have a story

[narrow gust]

Nikita always comes online when i'm not home

[small patrol]

before and after

????

[errant narwhal]

Nikita I have a question, they game is going to be only one day or is going to be more days?

[azure tartan]

I'm using a translator

[small patrol]

yooohogogogogogogog

lets goooooooo

[untold grotto]

hn3 is after act 3

[near meadow]

Is there a reason why you specifically chose to have his beak pointed upwards?

Like I said, his animations are interesting because it seems like he’s limping in pain sometimes with the way he grabs his hips and beak.

Is there a lore reason for why he looks like this?

+Do you still have the old guest audio from devlog 1 where you hear him attack you at the end of the video? Im curious to see hear the full audio of that if you have it

[azure tartan]

hmmmmmmm,

[untold grotto]

11 years after, to be more specific

[azure tartan]

ohhh

[small patrol]

this is boutta be interesting

super

intestine

[unborn fox]

Maybe it's a time gaap jump for a reason that connects to the lore?

[small patrol]

ing

[unborn fox]

Idk

[eager glade]

There are theories about why he looks like this i think

[untold grotto]

hope we see more of these

[royal solar]

can we get iris her finished model next please

i need

[unborn fox]

I wonder if these will have a purpose of sort other than the design (maybe for a game puzzle)

[untold grotto]

they do have meanings

like isaac being the ritual sacrifice

to the "god"

[small patrol]

sir nikita so your telling me that hello neighbor 3's story will have a back and forth????? so like events after hn 2 and like 20 + more yrs later just like hn1?

omd

[untold grotto]

when did he say this

[small patrol]

this gif

[errant narwhal]

RBO is going to return in the future after HN3? Or there's no future for the game

[untold grotto]

its not what he meant

[eager glade]

Why not both

[small patrol]

i think i misunderstood

at a point

but

i think its a good idea to make this idea of mine into a reality

[unborn fox]

It means something for a fact

Maybe for a prequel between HN2 and HN3

[small patrol]

yeah

that would be great

[narrow gust]

An abandoned softplay of some sort would be a cool location for hn3

[gentle pebble]

Do you have the pre alpha RBO gameplay

[high brook]

I wonder who did the voice for the guest

Unless it’s stock audio

[unborn fox]

What about a vhs store like blockbuster that would be cool

[gentle pebble]

You said last year you will share

[old comet]

it was probably Siarhei himself

[unborn fox]

Don't worry, he will give you something for you to post on YouTube

[jagged python]

When do you gust think that hell neighbor 3 is coming out?

[proud sky]

Hold on

Who do we play as

in the prototype

[deft summit]

I don't think the player even has a model yet it's just an old version of another character

[noble warren]

how do I lower the bridge to the museum in hn3

[subtle harness]

Wow the textures on coned looks really good when i saw it i though it was concept art it has thwt kind of shade or something

Btw i have question what happend to all old locations we saw in rbo-prototype 1 stages of hn3? There was church city and also really different places
What about that places? Cut?

[vocal stag]

Maybe it isn't real location. Maybe it just art or idk. I don't think that there was this places.

[crude temple]

bro

coned looks soo good

[subtle harness]

Nah they were screenshots

[subtle harness]

Yeah i really like artstyle
Textures are like painted something like spiderman into the spider verse

[crude temple]

fr

[subtle harness]

Yeah they were screenshots

Bro what do you want

[vocal stag]

Umm nothing. (If even talking about me)

[subtle harness]

Yeah i was talking to you if you have something to say i am listening

[vocal stag]

I don't want to say anything.

[subtle harness]

👍

[dapper lion]

Question: will Hello Neighbor 3 have multiple in game days?

[chrome geyser]

Why doesn't Theodore have his wedding ring on, at least in the concept art? Tbf this is a very minor nitpick but he strikes me as someone who won't take it off especially after her death.

[spark yarrow]

Do you think that kid in the game will be cool? Or am i the only

[vocal stag]

Maybe he want forgot Diane death?

[vocal stag]

Issak look not really good I hope only for early stages of development.

[spark yarrow]

But like kids who are afraid of the neighbor.

[chrome geyser]

Possibly. It would be a painful reminder... though iirc he kept her heels in the first game, and he's quite a sentimental man. But yeah that makes more sense to me than what I thought it implied, him getting over her.

[spark yarrow]

And who run when he see him and give us object like crowbar when he become our friend

[vocal stag]

Oh I understand what are you talking about. Umm well as I understand neighbor doesn't walk in town he will hide somewhere. I don't think kids can found him. So its not really good idea.

[spark yarrow]

Okk

I've heard about he was walking in town. But it can be a error

Maybe in museum

[vocal stag]

Sorry but I don't understand what are talking about.

[spark yarrow]

The kid

[vocal stag]

I think its historian area.

[spark yarrow]

Yea

But the hn3 game look really good i hope this to be incredible

[vocal stag]

I don't think that in Raven Brooks a lot of kids stayed. Maybe there will be only Issak and he stayed here only because he hasnt parents. He had only a sister Iris I don't think that they can moved to a big city to live . Maybe Iris hasn't any money.

[spark yarrow]

Ok

Idk why but the mechanik PNJ (idk if he is) always attack me

[vocal stag]

PNJ who is it

[spark yarrow]

Ho sorry that friend word🤣 ai

The mechanik ai

[vocal stag]

Are you talking about NPC in hn3 as I understand?

[spark yarrow]

Yea the man who look really cold

[vocal stag]

Man who look really cold... hmm who is it

Maybe Jacob

🤔

[spark yarrow]

Maybe

But the man who trow obect

🤣

[vocal stag]

Everyone can throw objects

[signal geyser]

Hello

[spark yarrow]

-_-

[vocal stag]

What clothes does he had?

[vocal stag]

[spark yarrow]

Oh a lot of clothes!

[vocal stag]

Does he have a winter cap?

[signal geyser]

What are you talking about?

[spark yarrow]

Yea that jacob

I've. Take a look on google

[vocal stag]

About Jacob

[vocal stag]

He is look grumpy in prototype 3.

[spark yarrow]

Yea

[vocal stag]

In previous versions he looks more friendly

[spark yarrow]

He is angry everytime idk why

[vocal stag]

Maybe you stole some things from his house or workshop?

They don't like when you stole items

[spark yarrow]

No nothing

I just watch him

[vocal stag]

Umm well I don't know

[spark yarrow]

But m'y favorite character is the stop man

[vocal stag]

Maybe he is already enemy with you in start of the game?

[spark yarrow]

Maybe

[vocal stag]

He have mask like this

[spark yarrow]

Yea

[vocal stag]

Yes?

[vocal stag]

His name is Signed

[spark yarrow]

Okk

Every character have a story?

I have soo much question on the game🤣

[vocal stag]

Yes. But for now we doesn't know a lot of facts about them. We know a lot of about Iris and Issac. We know some facts about Historian and Januzs. And we don't know anything about signed , coned, covered, and Jacob.

[spark yarrow]

Okk

The game will come at 2026?

[vocal stag]

Who know

[spark yarrow]

Yea

I think like march or february

[vocal stag]

Well sorry I need to go.

Bye

👋

[spark yarrow]

Byeeee

[nova lark]

Okay but what do you mean by this

[deft summit]

I think they mean will Peterson have tasks like he did in 1 and 2, while also learning from your attempts

[high brook]

i have a question, is the finalized coned we got to see an actual in engine render of him or a paint over?

[vague wing]

Blame his PC

[severe merlin]

Of course it’s a model 🙂

[sleek moat]

Wait is the neighbor a blockout model out model

[winged jungle]

Btw I appreciate you always coming here to tell us some news.

[sleek moat]

Same

[eager glade]

hello I got chicken

[high brook]

also i think the reason it made me say that is because the shading on the model looks kind of hand painted like a drawing (not in a bad way of course)

[grim lark]

Good day, Nikita

[loud karma]

I hope soon we get a remodel for signed

[grim lark]

Cant imagine how hard these folks are working

[vague wing]

Hey Nikita, I got a question

[sleek moat]

His nose might look weird

[restive oxide]

no

[blissful river]

Obviously, the original was a placeholder made by Nikita.

[loud karma]

nikita did good for a character placeholder model for signed

[blissful river]

Yea.

[high brook]

wasnt it the other guy tho

piotr i think

actually maybe it was nikita

IDK

[jade night]

💔

[thorn flare]

I thought it was in 2030

[blissful river]

Unless they updated it in P3, but I don’t think so.

[dapper lion]

Can I ask you a question?

[restive oxide]

nope

there is a newspaper in the game that says 2031 but nikita confirmed it was 2028

and since the prototypes aren't canon, the newspaper is irrelevant

[high brook]

i know he did signed

i didnt know he did coned too

(only becuase i forgot but now i remember)

[deft summit]

it's covering old news that's why it's 2031

it's not a newspaper that covers recent things

[cosmic depot]

One question: will all the models that are in the prototypes, like Jacob, Iris, and others, be canonical in the final game or not?

I think the Neighbor and Guest models are already finished for the final version, because they're very well done for a prototype, especially since Coned, Covered, and others came as sketches, while Neighbor and Guest didn't.

[orchid gazelle]

pretty sure everyone got concept art as far as i know

janusz is also already almost done from the teasers posted

so its safe to assume everyone in the prototypes will be in the final game

[restive oxide]

uh
you do realize
2028
is before
2031

[orchid gazelle]

i know nikita wanted more characters but apparently it was waaay too much work

[restive oxide]

they aren't done bruh

there very well may be more

[orchid gazelle]

oh i think i mightve misread what he said then

bc i remember he said smth abt like 25 total npcs in the final

[cosmic depot]

Was it Nikita who posted that image of the first Guest model on the Wiki? There's an image of the first model, he's even the tall guy by the door who appears in one of the Steam images.

[restive oxide]

the wiki is managed by fans

but the image itself was posted by him originally on this discord

[cosmic depot]

Uh

[restive oxide]

yes

it was shared by Nikita on this discord

you said the wiki so I thought you were asking if he posted it on there

[cosmic depot]

Oh, I thought the developers themselves posted it on the wiki, especially since I only come back when there's an announcement.

[bold heath]

i found these on the discord page for hn3

also this

[proud sky]

I have a question, for hello neighbour 3 will the neighbour be more of a side villain over a main villain as he’s about 85 he wouldn’t be as fast and much slower wouldn’t he? Wouldn’t that take away the authority to run away and make him more an obstacle like the first games, as he would be a lot slower no?

[empty shuttle]

😭😭😭Thank you for responding! Please take a vacation! (sorry for the last think meant no pressure, crunch is real folks)

[grizzled pecan]

I hope that Nikita will maintain his current autonomy in the studio until the release. And it won't turn out that, riding the wave of hype, the game will become an unfinished piece of work with a childish design. That's all I want from this game.

[cosmic depot]

Me Too

[earnest cape]

Man he looks great!

[earnest cape]

RBO the original concept of HN3 before being revised to a single player game.

[bold heath]

oh ok

[deft summit]

yeah duh

but the newspaper doesn't cover recent news

that's why it's a 2031 newspaper

it's covering 2028 events

I made myself perfectly clear

there's newspapers that do that

[restive oxide]

oh wait
i thought you meant, it was 2028, and it was covering news from 2031

[deft summit]

I wouldn't say something crazy unless it was to force Dragon Ball into things

by the way did you know Peterson is actually from an alien race called the Saiya-

[normal geode]

Listen, in Hello Neighbor 3, will there actually be a neighbor? We're told the story of Mr. Peterson, how he became even crazier during this period of time. We literally only see him for 6-10 seconds in the game.

[eager glade]

he will be an npc like everyone else in the final game

[gentle pebble]

I hope we get RBO pre alpha gameplay

[twin orbit]

Сheck this out

[fierce viper]

Why do I like this desing better than the official new neighbor desing?!?! 😭

[pseudo portal]

whats wrong with this crow

i cant escape

he just grabs and brings me back

[lunar trail]

use your flashlight

on him

[pseudo portal]

OH

thx

[lunar trail]

[pseudo portal]

also

whats wrong with these people

why the are so op

[twin orbit]

Who knows

Its in general russification of the neighbor

Maybe you saw this one

[acoustic thistle]

Hello Nikita i wanted to ask what inspired you when developing Hello Neighbor 3 ?

[normal geode]

I hope this doesn't happen again like with hn2

[twin orbit]

his Childhood?

memories

[tight mesa]

I remember that

[sleek moat]

It already is

The one we have is the final

[royal solar]

😭 no girl

she literally doesnt match with the art style at all i mean look at jacob compared her

[sleek moat]

I mean maybe

[royal solar]

she will defo get a new model so they actually match in the style

even jacob has gotten a new fully finished model

[sleek moat]

They look the same

[sleek moat]

So did iris

[royal solar]

😭 yeah guess what

jacob doesnt look like his concept art anymore at all

his concept art is also very different a lot more close to iris. thats because they were the first characters conceptualized

they arent the final designs clearly

because jacob got a complete overhaul in prototype 3

u can see he looks quite different to his original concept art

[subtle harness]

What do you mean they are same except face concept art face looks more serious and deadly if that makes sense

[royal solar]

face has more detailing. actual proper actual irises with a colour instead of it just being a black circle

[sleek moat]

These are pretty similar

[royal solar]

yeah but you can clearly see that they dont match

[sleek moat]

I can’t “clearly” see that

This is iris old model (doesn’t match concept art) (in terms of body shape)

[royal solar]

then get glasses because if you think these two match in detail and art style then idk what else to tell you

[royal solar]

yeah notice how her concept art is also completely different to her prototype model

😭

[subtle harness]

They said in devlog that jacob was getting new model but iris model is still rbo phase model and isnt updated

[royal solar]

.... thats my point yeah

that iris is using her prototype model that is outdated and doesnt match the art style anymore

since its a lot more basic

[sleek moat]

This is not her current model btw

[royal solar]

hey poison

go back to what i said before

we could have saved our breath with this entire conversation

THATS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID VRO 😭

THAT IT ISNT HER FINAL MODEL

[royal solar]

???

pick a struggle

[subtle harness]

This isnt the main issue the hn3 has
For me its map and too much freedom without directions

[sleek moat]

No we have a different one in p3

[royal solar]

no we dont

its the exact same model

[sleek moat]

Yes we do

[royal solar]

i swear to god

[subtle harness]

Its literally same as it was in rbo phases

[sleek moat]

No it’s not

[royal solar]

if you make me turn on HN 3 just for me to be correct istg

[subtle harness]

Bro it is

[sleek moat]

go ahead and check

It is a little bit more similar to the concept art

[subtle harness]

Jacob and iris and vandal were made same time if its updated model then why is she still doesnt have detailed textures updated model and realistic materials like jacobs new model?

[royal solar]

wait oh my god they did

[sleek moat]

I told you

[royal solar]

okay... im still half right tho her textures are NOT final

[sleek moat]

Yes that’s true

But model

[royal solar]

i didnt even notice they put her back on ozempic

[subtle harness]

Really? What changed i want to see it thats possible

[royal solar]

they actually did make her closer to the concept art

i didnt even notice hello ???

[sleek moat]

She looks like this

[royal solar]

yeah model wise she was 100% updated but texture wise she still has the RBO textures

[sleek moat]

True

[subtle harness]

All i see it his body is similar to concept art and she doesnt have jacobs body

So They did updated it
But why they didnt made her as detailed as jacob ?

[royal solar]

SHE ISNT BUILT LIKE A FRIDGE ANYMORE WE CHEERED

[royal solar]

probably ran out of time to give her new textures

[subtle harness]

Sorry but what you mean? They could just delay we wouldn't even known
Its not like they said when game would release

[royal solar]

they probably just didnt add them yet. maybe they arent finished

like her hair for example

[gentle pebble]

I think the next build make all the characters have a redesign

Like Jacob got

[subtle harness]

Oh her hair is finished but they arent adding that finished hair onto model

Dont know why
It was finished in devlog 1.5 if i am correct

[sleek moat]

They should have their final models in the next build

[gentle pebble]

Why else did they show Coned

Final version

[subtle harness]

Yeah they will because its already alpha-pre alpha and not prototype
But i am sure we will se finished version of iris

[gentle pebble]

I think it’s a alpha

Not pre alpha

[subtle harness]

But pre alpha is important stage of development too
They did that for hn1 and hn2

[gentle pebble]

It can get skipped

[subtle harness]

Yeah they can but i don't think they will

[untold grotto]

pre alpha is a prototype

[subtle harness]

What? I dont get it

[high brook]

How did I not notice this

[royal solar]

SAME I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE SHE GOT A NEW MODEL

[high brook]

Also Jacob isn’t built the same too

He has legs and arms aren’t as thin

[royal solar]

They made Jacob a lot more buff lol which makes sense He Is a mechanic

[high brook]

He looks a lot less goofy with his eyebrows now

[opaque summit]

it feels like hes barely even the same character

i miss the scaredy-cat jacob

[high brook]

I love that they reused the RBO music for the radios

[peak solar]

From what I know he still does have the gutless variable

[opaque summit]

it isnt weird that i havent noticed that since i barely even see him

[peak solar]

he has his own workshop

and his own house

[opaque summit]

i only knew of his workshop not his house

[low gate]

maybe not detail but the artstyle is the same

[peak solar]

I still think it's weird knowing that the models will get outright replaced

that usually doesn't happen, but I think the current character modeller does great

[low gate]

im pretty sure iris was just a modified jacob

[peak solar]

Also interesting how the Neighbor will be (so far) the only character to not roam that often

The Museum is occupied, and his house is pretty much unlivable

[west ginkgo]

Guys, what do you think? Nicky Roth will appear in HN3?
It’s definitely a debatable topic, I think...

[high brook]

No Nikita said his story is over

I think

[west ginkgo]

Damn... it would be interesting to see him in HN3...

[neon flume]

Nikita, Can you give us any details where the neighbor could be hiding?

[peak solar]

There's a chance his house might appear

might be entirely abandoned though, since Nicky's gone

[neon flume]

What if he just lives underground?

[west ginkgo]

Under the textures? Anything is possible

Or not

[glad yew]

Don't cook again.

[hollow ore]

You late

[fluid portal]

Does anyone have a pic of the block-out coned?

[pale sparrow]

HEY GUYS IS THIS REAALLL

[civic gyro]

shes fat

[civic gyro]

whatt is ts

[pale sparrow]

I DONT NOW

[civic gyro]

where u get ts image

[pale sparrow]

i think is fake

[civic gyro]

where did u get the image tho

im wondering

[pale sparrow]

random people

[civic gyro]

the image name is A1

alpha 1

but i dont think its real

ima reverse image search ts

[pale sparrow]

i make the name but the photo

no its fake sorry

[civic gyro]

how u know its fake

[pale sparrow]

i think no one know it

know

[civic gyro]

lemme see if it looks like hn3 p3 location at all

[pale sparrow]

yes P3 is final map

do you n

know

[civic gyro]

bro hasnt updated his studio

[raven pilot]

roblox studio

[sleek moat]

Jacob had the same texture from prototype one and two, but they change one thing

[royal solar]

they actually changed him a bit

his jacket is different and they gave him that weird glove thing

he overall just looks a lot nicer then in the previous prototypes

[royal solar]

his sweater is also a lot nicely textured

[high brook]

wdym its the same exact textures

[royal solar]

no

[high brook]

?

[royal solar]

they arent

a lot more higher quality. more vibrant too

😭 why did pre prototype 3 jacob look so

[royal solar]

i also just noticed the eyes are different too

[high brook]

oh yea

[royal solar]

old jacob looks so 😭 idk how to describe it but so off

[high brook]

actually i think the eye uvs were just changed not the texture

[royal solar]

oh wait the hat is different too

[royal solar]

actually

the collar is too

GOD I LOVE THIS NEW JACOB MODEL SO MUCH

he actually feels like an actual human-ish being and not some creature that runs around and yells

[shrewd oxide]

my favourite artstyle for hello neighbor is the prototype art from pre alpha 2. who agrees or disagrees.

and by pre alpha 2 i mean before alpha 2 not a second pre alpha

[sleek moat]

As a modder his textures as of what I’ve seen are the same

[sleek moat]

Yes they are more vibrant tho (left is p3 right is p2-p1) also u don’t know why ones upside down

(Oh Nikita’s typing) 👋

[severe merlin]

We brought him a bit closer to the original concept art

[sleek moat]

Wait that’s his original

[severe merlin]

But he is still not final

[sleek moat]

I thought this was

[restive oxide]

I just noticed how much more pale he is in this image

[proper badge]

Is he going to be a main character? I notice we play as his old model from Prototype 1 and 2 and that just gives some couple curiosity

[restive oxide]

playermodel is only a placeholder

[sleek moat]

Because the old model already has all the code and anims and stuff

[proper badge]

Yeah but notice how it's similar

It's just felt random and if this was in the full game

[restive oxide]

the model is only used due to already having player animations from rbo

[sleek moat]

Question, do you already have an idea of who the player will be

[proper badge]

Then idk else

[restive oxide]

the playermodel in the final game will be an entirely different character

[spiral atlas]

Hi Nikita, how are you doing

[brittle ferry]

Isn't the head from the P3 Jacob different from this model? Or IS It just the nose

[proper badge]

Didn't rbo was going to be secret neighbor 2

[restive oxide]

no

[sleek moat]

Just the nose

I think

[severe merlin]

No, this one is overpaint of the old model on how to make it closer to the concept (and add brows)

[brittle ferry]

If you take a look at It, i mean, i can't send any images

[proper badge]

Hey Nikita genuine question but if possible to add back the older characters from the old hello neighbor games are they going to be remodeled

[sleek moat]

Oh ok

[sleek moat]

Also will this be the house the neighbor will live/ roam in?

[restive oxide]

he can't answer those kinds of questions I don't think

[sleek moat]

Ok

[proper badge]

Very unlikely

[sleek moat]

Why

Like it might be more rebuilt

I mean he has memories from that house

[proper badge]

The house literally is done and it's likely he lives in another place as HN2

The house was investigated by the police + its pretty much abandoned

[sleek moat]

Oh true

[peak solar]

I would love to see a timelapse video personally for one of the future character models

[hot jasper]

Is it also hard for anyone else to understand what you're doing every prototype?

[high brook]

i have a question, is there an actual reason jacobs model was changed from the RBO one to the prototype 1 version?

[novel cliff]

not really
first 2, you have to escape raven brooks before a dangerous storm arrives and wipes it off the map

3rd you do something else honestly I forgot

[hot jasper]

In 2, it wasn't exactly obvious how. Nothing seemed to make sense at all.

In 3, I arrive at the hotel, go to my room, and can't open the door. There's no key or anything behind the counter and I'm not sure where else to go.

I figured it out. The door wouldn't open for an unknown reason.

But I'm still lost even in the room. Lmao

[pseudo spoke]

Can't be lost if you aren't looking for anything in the first place

[steel glen]

wheres the hotel im bad without a decent explanation or a cutscene that atleast gives me an idea of what to do😭

[high brook]

you know the game literally spawns you in with a map right?

[peak solar]

If you already know where to go, the book and brochure are technically starter items to throw at things

you're capable of technically breaking a window within the first moments of gameplay

[stoic lake]

grandeturisto Hey sorry to bother but, can you please send me the Hello neigbor devgamm blend files? i cannot find them in the server and i want to make a unreal engine game with them?

[steel glen]

ik but like which way like the aint that big and im lost

[pseudo spoke]

Look I'm sorry to say, but the map you start with is pretty self-explanatory, and the path from the bus stop to the hotel is almost an entirely straight line.
Like if you can't figure out where to go to reach the Hotel then it's kinda on you, they aren't gonna add arrows all over the map (Plus they already have multiple signs that (literally) point you towards the hotel if you "get lost")

But you don't even have to go to the hotel anyways so it's not a big deal

[formal solar]

#old-rbo-discussion message

[royal solar]

yeahh i see it now i completely forgot about this art. I like how you guys managed to combine both versions of jacob and give him a glow up while at it !

he looks so much better then he did in prototype 1 he looked so confused all the time xD

[stoic lake]

no access

will hello neigbor do https://devgamm.com/ ?? again

[severe merlin]

Yes. Older model was creating a different type of vibe from the character

[sonic birch]

Speaking of RBO, do you ever plan on releasing the old build you showed footage of, for preservations sake?

It would be nice to have it rather than it be lost to time

[cunning cosmos]

Heyy! Idk if this is the right place and i don't know if this counts as art or not but here's the old cinema so far! Its a wip at the moment but there are so many rooms and hallways 😭 (only 2 rooms to go)

[cunning cosmos]

There might be inaccuracies with it tho:/

So apologies

[dim isle]

Lol dude

[dim isle]

I tried to build a this build, in compliance with the original building layout.
But you obviously did better.

[short mason]

both are cool

[acoustic thistle]

I have a question: why did you abandon the development of Hello Neighbor 2 and then return to 3?

And also, what do you think about the Fredbear mod for the first part of the franchise?

[crystal hare]

looks great

[royal solar]

woahh

what is this peakery

that lighting looks scrumptious

[wary kite]

Watch Devlog 1.5

[tacit kestrel]

hey guys just a question do yall know hollow Signals?

[mighty orchid]

I can imagine hn3 the guest gets unmasked by the mystery gang in town and it’s Nicky underneath and he’s like “I would have gotten away with it too if it weren’t for you meddling kids!” And then imbir dooby doo appears and credits roll.

that lighting will destroy my pc probably

[exotic pewter]

I think he explained that in the first two devlogs

[narrow gust]

#1162248465330487366 you should post this here 👍

[chilly matrix]

when someone goes missing in hn3 prototype 3 where do they usually end up? (besides guest's jail house thing)

[sleek moat]

YOU CAN ACUALLY SEE A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!!! (I JUST NOTICE THE HIGHT LOL)

[royal solar]

I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE HOW WEIRD SHE LOOKED BEFORE LMAO 😭

[sleek moat]

idk why the pants texture on the old one is like that

[royal solar]

Body Is TEAAA thoo now

She hit the gym

Wait omg how did u get her model

[gleaming acorn]

hn2 guest?

[sleek moat]

Kinda

Same skel

[nimble walrus]

Yo! It reminds me of that one video. I think it was salad fingers if I am not mistaken.

[sleek moat]

yo i acually remeber yhat

[nimble walrus]

Lol

[nimble walrus]

What in the hell... is that gif

[sleek moat]

someone made that on tiktok

[nimble walrus]

So now I know what Neighbor rly dreams about /trust

But fr. She is probably looking for rusty spoons

[restive oxide]

give Jacob the holding anumations

[restive oxide]

cough

[sleek moat]

give jacob what holding anims?

[restive oxide]

the ones in his "old" folder

[restive oxide]

he turns into this

[sleek moat]

oh his old anims for p2

[restive oxide]

he didn't have any in p2

[sleek moat]

oh

[restive oxide]

the old ones are from rbo pretty sure

[sleek moat]

yeah true

[nimble walrus]

Actually nah! Let me give you an idea. Her, but looking down at Isaac while having insane smile. With like dark background and colours that would fit theme.

[sleek moat]

ok ill make that

[sleek moat]

i dont think so

[nimble walrus]

Isaac would probably look scared as hell

[restive oxide]

bruh
what does this image have to do with anything 😭

[sleek moat]

its form rbo and they dont have their holding anims

[nimble walrus]

RBO never had holding animation

[sleek moat]

yeah

[sleek moat]

lol

[nimble walrus]

Lol. But yeah item holding was never a thing if I am not mistaken

[high brook]

"oh my hero has saved me!" ahh look on iris face

[sleek moat]

i thought you were taking about like holidng objects

[novel cliff]

Ngl in this ending I thought the guest was just doing something insanely grotesque to frighten the player I didn’t realise it was unmasking itself

[restive oxide]

no one said item 😢

[nimble walrus]

Ngl would be cool if we were able to drag furniture, to drag it on the door so you can block it and stuff

[sleek moat]

like devgamm and prottotype

[nimble walrus]

Like devgamm animation had it

[sleek moat]

tbh i am tweking the devgamm anim in blender 5 right now

[nimble walrus]

Nice

[sleek moat]

also im uploading iris to sketchfab and does anyone know how to fix her textures from being plain black

[high brook]

i wish we had this model so much

i wish they could release it for the sake of archival atleast

[restive oxide]

same

[sleek moat]

its the same model just diff textures

[restive oxide]

just wait several years

[restive oxide]

no

the model itself is slightly different from p1

[sleek moat]

oh really

[restive oxide]

yes

[restive oxide]

thanks to bub

we know the model was changed

not just textures

[sleek moat]

until nikita pulls off another

[high brook]

i saw this for a second and thought it was new 😭

i thought it was the RBO build

[chilly matrix]

oh my god bruh i was building her model in some roblox game and i didn't even know it was the old one
rip

[cunning cosmos]

Nah I think yours is awesome tho!

[royal solar]

#couplegoals

do you guys think it would be a good idea to enable ray traced shadows in HN 3

😃 im kinda scared my PC will turn into a rocket

[peak solar]

it's crazy that we have the oldest neighbor model now because of that

[high brook]

would it be possible if we could get more angles and views of the old model? i understand if we cant and its ok

[sleek moat]

i trapped jacob in a closet

[high brook]

yea we need this build so much

it looks peak

[sonic birch]

Yeah I would like it if they released it so it doesn’t become lost media

And also it would be fun to explore the games files

[meager walrus]

aw come on

[high brook]

i wonder when we will get devlog 4

[chilly matrix]

How tall is iris compared to isaac?

[blissful river]

Some time next year probably.

[high brook]

A year??

Oh wait it’s December

[swift dagger]

Hello neighbor 3 ahh pic

[old edge]

They really need to make a free roam mode so you can explore the map

[molten lake]

hello

neighbors

[past cedar]

hi did anything happen today?

[gleaming acorn]

very

[royal solar]

he does NOT look happy about it

let him out...

im so excited for the next version yall

i cant wait to see how that will look

with all the finished character models too 🥺 💞

its gonna be weird seeing the game with actual proper textures on props and not just flat coloured items LOL

[spark yarrow]

i think hn3 is the best to make mods

like the neighbor of the one in hello neighbor 3

[spark yarrow]

or steve

[deft summit]

HN1 is still the best to make mods, purely because of the modkit's accessibility

[spark yarrow]

yea more accessible but with the 3 we have more mod idea

[deft summit]

hard to execute ideas without the tools

[drowsy cedar]

[restive oxide]

meh

[green storm]

Okay, I got another theory about HN3 lore

What if we (the character we play) is indeed Aaron Peterson?

and we returned to Raven Brooks to try to recover our childhood memories because he actually don't remember anything?

[river spire]

and they literally still have it so theres no excuse for not being able to share it

[sterile crane]

please.... need.... rbo jacob.... 💀

[gleaming oasis]

HN3 is gonna be so peak

It’s just gonna be absolute hello neighbor

[thick tendon]

No

[brave thunder]

there are enough tools already

[deft summit]

none are as accessible and readily available as the modkit

that's why I think the HN1 modding scene will last longer than any other HN game

[brave thunder]

none of them crash every 5 minutes like modkit

[thick tendon]

The guest is diana Peterson

[civic totem]

Is this a good suggestion or a bad suggestion? #1447197431895822501 message

[spark yarrow]

Idk how to take this "meh"

[untold cape]

anything new about the release?

[modest magnet]

do we know what the actull concept for the full release of hn3 is?

[modest magnet]

is that the mother?

or the daugter

either way it cant be either

[thick tendon]

The guest

[modest magnet]

i mean the girl she said

the dauter or mother of mr peterson

daugter

[river spire]

wife of peterson

but she died

[modest magnet]

yea it would be a cool concept but it woudnt make sense

like why would she steal theodores house

[river spire]

in hn2 alphas?

[modest magnet]

yea

i think it was the first one

[civic totem]

The guest is not diane

[river spire]

the guest wasnt even actually there in those tho

[modest magnet]

wdym

[river spire]

he was just something quentin imagined for yellow journalism

[modest magnet]

lowk i think its the daugter

and she survived the fall

[civic totem]

Brooklyn guy the Guest is not Diane

[modest magnet]

i know

im talking about mya

[river spire]

yeah survives the fall and survives being buried alive

[river spire]

*since youre saying shes alive

[civic totem]

We literally see Mr. Peterson burying Mya in the Hide & Seek ending though

[modest magnet]

lowk i never act played hidde and seek

so i dont rly see the ending

[river spire]

and the grave in act 1 is implied to be myas

[modest magnet]

oh thats hers?

[river spire]

which is why we cant dig it up

[civic totem]

Yes

[modest magnet]

i thought it was diane

[river spire]

cause the game would be like rated r then

[modest magnet]

tbh i thought it was a glitch

[civic totem]

Diane was buryed at an actual graveyard lol

[river spire]

how is that a glitch tho

[modest magnet]

is that why theres a tp to the graveyard

[river spire]

we see her grave in hn1 too

[river spire]

thats just the tp to out of bounds

it was behind the school in earlier versions

they moved it to graveyard however

[modest magnet]

i thought since u can dig graves in the over games i assumed it was a bug in this one

weird

which ver for the school?

[river spire]

literally the tp would go behind the school in midair

[civic totem]

Yes that's what I'm talking about

She was buried here https://helloneighbor.wiki.gg/wiki/Raven_Brooks_Home_of_Eternal_Rest

[modest magnet]

tbh i wish they didn

[river spire]

why?

[modest magnet]

i wish they made peterson tall in the third

the model showed he was but the actull game showed him not being that tall

[river spire]

concept art can differ from final product

[modest magnet]

it made him look more menaceing

[river spire]

also can you explain why you thought act 1 grave was a bug

[modest magnet]

because it the over games u can dig it

[river spire]

yeah but imagine him trying to fir through any doorway

[modest magnet]

in the

[river spire]

my reasoning is that grave was unfinished then but when the map was copied for act 2 they worked more on the grave there

you can see in xbox pre release the act 2 grave looking more like act 1 grave

[modest magnet]

i wish they kept the ending in alpha 1(i think it was the one with the blue house)

[river spire]

???

[modest magnet]

weird how u had to go to ghost mdoe for it

[river spire]

what blue house bro

[modest magnet]

in alpha 1

hn1

[river spire]

show image

no idea what youre talking about

[mighty orchid]

Alpha 2

[modest magnet]

let me boot the game up rq

[mighty orchid]

Blue house and ghost mode gives that away otherwise I don’t know

[river spire]

he said alpha 1

[modest magnet]

i forgot which one it was

i assumed it went smallest house to biggest

[river spire]

so alpha 2 house?

[modest magnet]

yea

[river spire]

so what about it

[mighty orchid]

Yea but he could’ve just said it wrong

[modest magnet]

havent played the alphas in a while

[mighty orchid]

Like not everyone remembers every build

It’s easy to mix up

[shut tapir]

Pre alpha house

[sonic root]

i have a question how to pass this game on good ending?

i just cant fin the kid and all the peices

[modest magnet]

how do i undo error world ending

[river spire]

under the cinema theres a clue where the kid is

[river spire]

start a new game

[mighty orchid]

Yea but it wasn’t the only blue house

[sonic root]

ok thanks

[river spire]

another tip cable cars are helpful to use to get up there

[sonic root]

oh ok

i will try

[sonic root]

i didint saw anithing

[river spire]

you gotta really look around under

[sonic root]

i looked i went to a door and there was some stairs going down and there where only boxes and a chair

[river spire]

i can show a tutorial in dms how to get to the right room with the hint

[sonic root]

yes please

[river spire]

in like 7 minutes ok

[sonic root]

ok

[rustic forge]

Is it even possible to play RBO PreAlpha?

[sonic root]

i think no

[river spire]

yes if you break into the neighbor bank, take the rbo pre alpha, leak it and then play it

then you can

for legal reasons this comment is a joke

[hot haven]

but in reality, no?

[sonic birch]

i really hope they release it

even if it's mostly broken I prefer devs releasing indev stuff so it doesn't get lost some day

also it would be fun to have lol

[high brook]

RBO HOPE

actually though i hope they release it

[flat tinsel]

Adidas collab?

Look at the coned shoe design

[blissful river]

Same. It had a really nice style going. While HN3 has a similar look it’s not the same.

[high brook]

yea hn3 feels too realistic right now

but i like it at the same time

[sleek moat]

Yo Nikita when are we going to get a new final 3d model

[deft summit]

if this was a factor, we'd be seeing more HN2 mods than HN1

[blissful river]

I don’t agree, I was just saying they are different.

[gleaming oasis]

Why u hating😭🙏

[gleaming oasis]

Isn’t rbo cancelled

[thick tendon]

I'm not hating

[proud sky]

I mean

Lwk I’ve lost all hope for the franchise

but yk

If there’s a half decent ai

Ye sure the games got a chance

just don’t know how it works

or will work

coz the neighbour can’t be the main villain

The guest has to be the main villain

[small patrol]

guys im not complaining but i hope that they make mr petersons face more better

rn its very chopped

his nose is smaller than it looks

ig devs nor nikita wants my opinion abt the new mr petersons look

[hot jasper]

This game has been a huge disappointment in its prototype phase for me.

None of what makes Hello Neighbor fun is present here. Hello Neighbor was described as a game that would feel like an easter egg hunt to solve the puzzles, which often made the game have unclear solutions to the puzzles causing requirements for the need of a walkthrough. The games have NEVER been as walkthrough heavy as this one.

The map feels cluttered and the paths feel aimless. They wanted a large map, but exploration is punished heavily by the strict timer, which again, is against the expected gameplay for a Hello Neighbor title. The whole thing about HN is the planning and strategizing of how to complete various puzzles while the neighbor would be a huge barrier to your studying.

Also, where are the puzzles in the next sequel of this puzzle game series? This is a literal "find this and put it here" scavenger hunt with an aggrivating timer attached to it.

This just isn't looking like a fun game at all.

I wish we had puzzles and they were on the same difficulty as Search and Rescue's puzzles. Those were fun, had some challenge to it, and didn't require a walkthrough.

[civic cliff]

Hello neighbor one was genuinely tragic trying to get through without a playthrough, and i thought HN3 had a perfect difficulty. And there are certainly puzzles in HN3, most of what you are doing is a puzzle. Also most of the paths lead you somewhere, i couldn't really find a path that wasn't leading me to a house, supermarket, easter egg, ect, just something useful. And the timer is a core element to HN3 and the whole butterfly effect thing. Besides, the timer isn't really that strict, i thought it was a good amount of time to do stuff like explore and experiment with the characters.

[woven lodge]

I can't really disagree, the timer is awful.

[gleaming oasis]

I think a lot of it just comes from nostalgia

At the end of the day

This game got a whole book series

[proud sky]

Storm idea sucks

[gleaming oasis]

Animated tv show

[proud sky]

And it’s going to be forced into the main game

[gleaming oasis]

And a whole movie coming up

And the game was overall success

[proud sky]

I really wished hello neighbour 2 was actually good

Like it had a fair amount of potential

[gleaming oasis]

That was a S tier game

Not much bugs

Good story

And hello neighbor got improved graphics

And a continuation

When ppl say I miss old Hn

That just comes from nostalgia

The new games r honestly better

And more story orientated

Still not direct like every other horror indie game

But still better

[proud sky]

Hello neighbour 2 was an s tier game?

oh hello no

[hot jasper]

I was following Gaming With ACK's tutorial and ran out of time several times. I feel rushed and dissatisfied.

[proud sky]

*hell no

[hot jasper]

Hell no Neighbor.

[proud sky]

The ai literally couldn’t get u if u were one foot above the base floor

[proud sky]

See what I did there

ik im funny

[proud sky]

All that work for nothing

Bad cliff hanger

Unlikely to find out anything about Quentin now

[gleaming oasis]

Not really the ai was way better than hn 1

[gleaming oasis]

Proably gonna find out in hn3

[proud sky]

Yes really

the ai was bad
