[stoic monolith]

💀

By the sounds of it

I don't really think im gonna enjoy this one that much

[untold grotto]

yeah this concept is not for everyone

[stoic monolith]

I rather they just do what granny did

Have stuff randomised

[wild girder]

I actually asked him something like that but he said "not exactly"

[stoic monolith]

Okay i was debating whether to buy the game ot judt watch it

I think im gonna just watch it and see

[brave thunder]

alphas are probably gonna be free

[wild girder]

I wonder when we're going to see what our character is going to look like.

As long as they have gloves, I'm happy.

[stoic monolith]

Plot twist

Pre alpha man returns

[untold grotto]

ngl after seeing how many people get lost on the p3 map, i do really think the game needs some kind of navigation help. not a classic minimap or ui tho
more like a physical, in world map the player actually carries, as you explore, they could scribble notes, mark spots, draw symbols, etc.

plus it could add some personality to the player character, since the map wouldnt be perfect itd reflect how they see the world

[near hawk]

Hopefully Nikita sees this.

[high brook]

Is it just me or is hn3 right now looking a little too warm rn

Like it needs more dark colors

And blues maybe

[glad narwhal]

Maybe a blue type of forest effect. Or it’s nighttime it has a kinda, blue ish look. Or like that one teaser where it was like purple type of and it was dark.

[high brook]

I still think the idea of hn3 having multiple days could work really well

[glad narwhal]

Maybe when players lose items, like sparkles above the items or have the raven flying (honestly like sparkles more). That would be cool too so players can keep track of items. And maybe they can add the extra inventory from RBO, like a backpack you can find. Maybe a backpack has inventory in it already, and it can have a like a few items left in it, and some can be empty. And maybe in like the hotel or sum, there can be lockers to store items in. Or if you befriend someone and they let you leave your items in their residence. Just different ways for characters to store items and keep track, that I think would go well with this.

[untold grotto]

yeah backpack should return but with fewer slots

[glad narwhal]

Yea I agree, it was a bit much items you could store there.

And having less items or a little less slots would make more of the challenge in the game.

And kinda like survival but not fully.

Which

[civic totem]

✅

[near hawk]

So is the looping mechanic just that You have a certain amount to do stuff (until the storm comes) and once it comes the game resets or am i missing something?

(not asking If it's related to story btw because Nikita said it's not already)

[glad narwhal]

Maybe thy can add medalist in the game. Like depending on how much fall damage you take, you can get sent to a hospital. Or depending on where you fall, like in forest you’ll get taken by Guest. And depending on how much you fall you’ll move slower, so if you have food that will make you faster, it can heal you. Or if you you have a med kit, you’ll heal faster. And when your moving slower your not like always about to die or anything, you have a chance. But you can fall more and get knocked out and maybe kidnapped. And that would will with star inventory, and make food more useful. Also if you fall enough you can die, just to add more sims ways to die.

[civic totem]

Honestly I hope they actually do something about HN3's design because currently it's quite confusing for most people

[civic totem]

Idk if HN3 should have fall damage...

[glad narwhal]

How so?

I mean O can kinda understand

[near hawk]

Does Raven Brooks even have hospitals in this stage?

[civic totem]

Does it need fall damage?

[glad narwhal]

Town folks have stuff I guess. It would make sense for them too, because of the condition of town, they have to stay ready.

Storm being the unexpected thing.

[untold grotto]

i think fall damage is necessary but i dont think hospital is

[glad narwhal]

Or maybe just town folks finding you depending on who it is will help you. Not a full like real hospital, but town folks trying to improvise with the recourses they have. Like they out you in the bed to bring you back, and you can kinda see it but vision is blurry.

[exotic pewter]

I am bad

[near hawk]

Are You bad because you are Signed or are you Signed because you are bad?

Welcome back to Frigid news station where we-

[near hawk]

"welcome back to Frigid news station where we ask the real questions"

[eager glade]

https://tenor.com/view/danny-devito-its-always-sunny-applaud-happy-cry-clapping-gif-18958303

best words ever heard

[near hawk]

Why does a news station ask questions? Don't ask me.

Anyway and anyhow. Hello neighbor 3.

[high brook]

I feel like hn3 needs some sort of flash back cutscenes for the lore

Like explaining the origin of stuff with a little cutscene

[tall sorrel]

https://media0.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExcTZwcml5Z3dwODJ3YW11NW5sZnBwNzJzN2VpaDYwY2JrNGRoNmZlbiZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/ZLe54r3KjmXmUk0FQH/giphy.gif

[tall sorrel]

I feel HN3 will do fine with mostly environmental storytelling

[high brook]

I wonder why I haven’t seen any hn3 ai slop videos yet

And I don’t want to

[near hawk]

Not popular enough most likely

Or do You mean on the channel for AI here?

[high brook]

Well I guess there’s like 1 or 2 of them of the neighbor and that’s bout it

I’m glad the content farms haven’t touched hn3 yet

Well they haven’t really touched hn in general

[near hawk]

One good thing for If Hello neighbor 3 stays more underground for fans as opposed to a trend-breaking installment.

[high brook]

Yea

[tall sorrel]

I think part of it is bc HN's not really popular rn

[high brook]

Wait I was just about to type something and I just got Deja vu LOL

And I forgot

[tall sorrel]

and even if it does get some views, it's not TADC levels right now

[high brook]

The good thing about hn in general was it was made before the content farms slop era

So it didn’t really get involved in it

[civic totem]

They did

Somewhat

[high brook]

Yea but it wasn’t like how it is now

Not just meaningless slop and some of it was actually funny

[civic totem]

I guess

[bronze phoenix]

also

how did the neighbor make the big ahh house

is there a lore reason

im obs talking about act 3

[eager glade]

I think kids imagination

act 3 is a dream after all

I don't think it's animagination in the AS since Mrs bales tells theo "I see you made adjustments to your house"

Not sure

[bronze phoenix]

in WTRB?

the act 3 house was there

[near hawk]

This is HN3 discussion btw

But probably metaphorical or faulty memory or smth.

[near hawk]

He could have made adjustments but not that extreme.

[eager glade]

maybe yeah

[royal solar]

😭 that and but also dont make it take up inventory space or something just like M for map would be nice

and the map could open up as more you progress

[untold grotto]

exactly

[royal solar]

and we could even have markers for big areas like the hotel, shop and other stuff

so you would see where everything is once you explore it

[random shell]

I wonder what role the vandal gang will play

[earnest cape]

Covered looks amazing for a design, very silent hill-esque which makes sense knowing the games are often inspired by it.

Also I don’t know if anyone’s noticed but all of the vandals have green skin.

[gleaming acorn]

janusz is a vandal

[earnest cape]

Hmmm a little too far fetched

[compact coyote]

When will this release gng 😭

[glad narwhal]

I know it’s not like a specific lore reasoning for character to have colors, but read this.

This

And this

[glad narwhal]

2029

Definitely

Trust

[bronze phoenix]

does he mean proto 4?

or full game

[glad narwhal]

I assumed full game because wasn’t specific.

But could be proto 4 idk

But next version might be alpha, right?

[wooden condor]

That's interesting, "hub" might be smth cool

[trim sinew]

So, I haven’t been active here in like two years, but I’ve been keeping up with the game. Am I the only one that isn’t a fan of both the objective and time constriction in HN3? It feels like I have to rush to beat the game instead of taking my time to fully immerse myself in the world.

[glad narwhal]

Time is going to be longer as it updates.

Really, there is multiple way for Raven Brooks destruction. It’s just you see how that would unfold.

But I understand

There is a lack of direction in game rn.

[trim sinew]

Okay but why have a time limit at all? That just seems kinda silly to me. I’m sure you see where I’m coming from.

[glad narwhal]

I can see it, but really the time limit is because of seeing storm mechanic. This game is a way to see how raven brooks gets destructed.

And you make that up (in a way), while being able to discover story in game like the past of raven brooks and the festival.

This game is just to show more elements of what was meant to be in previous games including HN1, lol now open and freedom aspect with AI that is advanced enough to be like actual people in a way. Just having them be smart, and each character having personality. But I get why it seems weird for there to be a time limit, but it makes sense.

And also consider that it’s a prototype rn.

[trim sinew]

Well see but I’m also not a big fan of the main quest being building a statue, it feels a bit fetch quest like. I’m really hoping we have a larger sort of goal than that. Also, why can’t the storm be on a cycle as well? From the looks of it, it seems like the town has been hit by a few already.

[glad narwhal]

I mean, this game does plan on adding a ton more stuff and routes to do that just that to get to a goal or an ending you want. Thats just what is like present, but there is a ton more to do on the outside. Like how the original HN1 plan and idea for the game was that it would have the breaking into house part as a front, but there is a ton more to do so you can get to a route you want in different ways.

That’s mainly cause it is in prototype form rn. So thy get the basics out of the way.

Or not out of the way but like, set up.

To present the idea is what I’m saying, or an idea.

Not the full thing.

Per se.

[trim sinew]

I don’t want to sound harsh on the game by any means. It looks pretty great visually and seems leagues ahead in terms of progress than other hn games at this current state. The ai systems right now, even though they’re kinda barebones, are really really cool and fun to mess around with.

[glad narwhal]

How is that harsh?

[trim sinew]

Well I’ve basically been saying that I’m not a fan of the core gameplay loop lol.

[glad narwhal]

Oh I mean, that’s your opinion lol.

[trim sinew]

What do you hope to see from the final version?

[glad narwhal]

More characters, more items to mess around with. More exploration than even rn, although a map would be nice to find in game. And more routes and different ways to complete the game.

[trim sinew]

I think items with more than just repair/destroy would be cool. That’s what a lot of the items do already and it feels like there could be more variety.

[glad narwhal]

Yea I agree

More things to destroy. And even you can push around items you destroyed. Certain items that aren’t strong enough to destroy things.

Also I want driving, which is a feature wanted by Nikita, and even planned in HN1 but never got too around to it.

[trim sinew]

I don’t know about driving, it’d be cool but I think a bike would be more fitting honestly

[glad narwhal]

Ooh a bike would be a really fun and cool feature.

Idk I think customizable avatars (like old SN) I think can be super cool. And then maybe even third person, and fee camera mode, even a photo mode. And you can get a cool of of riding on bike.

Or just anything ya know.

Idk would be cool (imo).

[near hawk]

I wanna be able to ragdoll npcs like in HN2 alpha

Maybe not necesarily ragdoll, but trip or push in any case.

[night remnant]

It will be pvp game

lol

[near hawk]

It was supposed to

But it's a single player now

[blissful river]

You kinda can by knocking them out currently lol.

In P3

[near hawk]

Oh yeah

[glad narwhal]

The idea of multiplayer is held off rn and basically we’ll, is cancelled. Maybe a slight tiny chance to wait till the future notice maybe, but likely no. They have wait till the game release first and see how far goes before even thinking of that, and they don’t want to think too ahead. Because they’ve done that before and ya know, they wanna do better.

[glad narwhal]

Edited this to add onto my idea and I guess, make it work more.

[low gate]

[meager walrus]

time limit will not be in hn3 im pretty sure

this is timer just ties in with the current gameplay

just so like there are consequences

[near hawk]

Nah that's kinda one of the main mechanics

[meager walrus]

i said current gameplay of prototype 3

hn3 full game will probably not be on a timer so that you can complete

[near hawk]

No no

[meager walrus]

with current i meant prototype 3 gameplay

[near hawk]

Mb

[meager walrus]

yeah its alright

[near hawk]

I meant to reply to this

Time limit is a big part of the game

Maybe they will increase it in the full game a little, if anything

[eager glade]

There's a time limit in the full game

But it will be soo long

[near hawk]

Time limit is a pretty big part of the game

Butterfly effect and open world are bigger

[untold grotto]

there will be

[bronze phoenix]

nikita comfimed proto 4

How you guys think of the Vandals, for me they look nice!

[spiral steppe]

Yeah, i love thier new textures

[severe merlin]

That would look awesome as a cosplay trio. Really tempted to cosplay Signed

[bronze phoenix]

Will these designs come in Prototype 4 or later?

[severe merlin]

I never confirmed P4, though

[bronze phoenix]

There is rumors that its coming

What im asking is Will these designs come in the Next version of hello neighbor 3 or later?

[quaint dagger]

When will Hello Neighbor 3 Alpha 1 be released?

[bronze phoenix]

it will be after Pre alpha

if there is a pre alpha

[cunning yacht]

When it's finished.

[quaint dagger]

Yolka🔥

[cunning yacht]

Yeah🔥 🔥

[empty shell]

Hi Nikita. Could we get any funfact about the Neighbor?

[near hawk]

Didn't.

[bronze phoenix]

i swore someone said that

well im gullible

[near hawk]

Oh nvm Nikita said that alr

[bronze phoenix]

he said he dident confimed

[bronze phoenix]

.

[glad narwhal]

Oh alr. Thanks

[bronze phoenix]

no he dident

[glad narwhal]

Oh

…

Idk why I didn’t ask for source 😭

[bronze phoenix]

look

[bronze phoenix]

.

[bronze heart]

Will we see a new devlog before the end of winter?

[glad narwhal]

Yuh I checked right above. I alway search for the reply first.

But yea, I likely think it will be an alpha build.

Makes sense for final prototype to have full game map layout.

[winged jungle]

Nikita said he can't talk about the name of the next build

[glad narwhal]

Oh wait I actually remember hearing sum like that. Guess I just forgot and got it mixed up.

[lusty dove]

imagine if they literally release HN3 full game next

it would be awful

[bronze heart]

Maybe it will be, but judging by what we already have, the game will still be good. Well, the concept of "Next year" is broad. Maybe at the beginning of the year, maybe at the end

[winged jungle]

It would probably be ok but unfinished, cus p3 felt like apha stages. The only problems were player interaction and block out models, but now the models are finalised.

[severe merlin]

Agree

[chrome sun]

who's next to get a redesign?

[eager glade]

All vandals are done and all we know is iris isn't done yet so maybe iris and janusz then historian

[winged jungle]

Will the models inside houses wallpaper be done? So that they don't have plain colours anymore

[pseudo spoke]

I'm so sorry to inform you...

[winged jungle]

Lol

[lusty dove]

wait what?

is this a joke?

[lusty dove]

so it's not?

[untold grotto]

it is

dont you see the spoiler

[lusty dove]

english is not my native language; I was therefore confused, thinking that the spoiler was a direct response to TotallyNotMicheal's question, not a follow-up to Nikita's previous statement.

So, I just hope that HN3 gets some nice models, the same treatment that HN2 received (perhaps one of the few things that saved that game).

[chrome sun]

The guest is probably gonna have a redesign probably. If not his actual model is ok.

TBH it actually looks really good.

[untold grotto]

he wont

[chrome sun]

That fine because the main one looks incredible.

[high brook]

bruh this WAS the redesign

im pretty sure nikita showed the old one

[lusty dove]

yes ok but still it was used in prototype 3, so everything could change

or receive changes (even minor ones)

[untold grotto]

yeah this was the og design

[high brook]

wasnt there a model too?

[chrome sun]

I ment if he would get some different updates to his design.

[high brook]

i cant send the image cuz i dont have the perms

[chrome sun]

For it to possibly change

[untold grotto]

yeah the old keyart one

[winged jungle]

Um

[chrome sun]

Oh that one.

[winged jungle]

I think what happened to the guest will be revealed at the end of wtrb

[untold grotto]

we didnt say it wont change it just won't be a complete redesign

[chrome sun]

Yea

[chrome sun]

So basically he won't get a update?

[untold grotto]

he probably gonna have updates but design will be same

[lusty dove]

the character models. but foliage meshes and materials, furniture models, gameplay loop, particles, performance and everything else looks really early in the actual prototype 3. I think the game needs time to get build

[chrome sun]

Ok

[winged jungle]

Yeah

I wonder what there last build is gonna be

Probably like alpha 4

[lusty dove]

I don't know I have a bad feeling they're going to rush the game

but let's put our trust in the developers

[high brook]

yea the model is not perfect and it still could use some fixes

but the design is basically finalized, like the concept art is

[lusty dove]

Even though trust in HN2 has not been fully rewarded, now with Nikita's return, I see clearer ideas and the potential for a good game. All it needs is time. For this reason, HN3 should be released in early 2027 or mid-2027, in my personal opinion

[winged jungle]

I did that too many times

And wayy too much trust

With hn2

And now look at hn2

[chrome sun]

It can feel nostalgic

[torn crystal]

hack bro

[random shell]

Why are people saying Nicky is the guest

[restive oxide]

boredom

[sleek moat]

<@&1162799252192379000>

[ionic tiger]

ngl it looks like the guest became a scarecrow

[chrome sun]

He got different sounds two. He sound like a elk

[ionic tiger]

lol

guest is goated and not mr peterson

wonder why he saved quintin in unreleased patch

[slim ice]

me personally i love the new redesign

makes him look (physically) like a threat, not saying he never was

and the artstyle js feels so eerie yet cozy, like Nikita wanted

[earnest cape]

Doubt he’s getting a new version this seems to be his full fledge model as it has a lot of detail and work done for it.

This would have been his actual placeholder model:

[gleaming acorn]

i'm like 70% sure it has been directly confirmed peterson and the guest have finished designs

might be wrong but it seems very likely

[ionic tiger]

i like the new design ngl, but i need old guest in hn3 as like an easter egg

maybe a dream sequence if u die to hard u can see the neighbor making a flood like ikn the book and the guest watching?

[near hawk]

I'm 80% sure.

[severe merlin]

Correct. Besides maybe some bits here and there, current look of the Neighbor and the Guest is final.

[high brook]

I really wish we had this model or at least some different angles of it

[eager glade]

It should be a ruined version of guest If we ever do something crazy idk

[main verge]

This game is so dead

[sonic birch]

👏

No

[eager glade]

The game isn't dead

The game is dead inside

[main verge]

and fredbear mod clutched in

[eager glade]

mid mod

[main verge]

w sdalt

[main verge]

It’s fun bri

[eager glade]

nope

[main verge]

Imo

[near hawk]

Yes and pre-alpha, Alpha 1 and Alpha 2 were the only good games

[main verge]

ngl all hello neighbor mods suck anyway

[eager glade]

ur opinion ofc but what I think is just a fast neighbor with a different model

[eager glade]

HEY

You haven't seen into the mind

[near hawk]

And show is the saviour of franchise

[eager glade]

Trust me it's fire

And curse retold

[sonic birch]

Not curse retold

[main verge]

On steam workshop?

[sonic birch]

https://tenor.com/view/alan-wake-jazz-dance-alan-wake-2-dancing-gif-8535943424037028812

[eager glade]

it's good man

[sonic birch]

Do they still have that weirdo voice acting the neighbor

[near hawk]

Which weirdo?

[eager glade]

I still don't know about the weirdo voice acting neighbor

[main verge]

Are the two mods on steam workshop

[eager glade]

I actually just love the game I don't like the devs crying over criticism

[oblique parcel]

Hey Nikita i just wanted to ask how would you say development going?

[eager glade]

I think into the mind is but if it ain't 2 of em is on mod db

[near hawk]

I'm just saying "opinions" that are common to see in yt and other social media, ignore ts

[eager glade]

I just realised your the guestyy guy btw lol

[tawny tendon]

Who..??

[main verge]

bruh I don’t want moddb cuz I want the easy one

[sonic birch]

Long story it’s not the right place to talk about

[main verge]

I want to download easier

[near hawk]

Is he guesty or someone else?

[tawny tendon]

You can dm me

[eager glade]

it's easy just go to a hn folder and make a mods folder in there

[eager glade]

Someone else

[near hawk]

Ahh. So we have guesty and guestyy

[tawny tendon]

One billion Guestys

[near hawk]

Anyway this is getting kinda #hello-neighbor more than #hn3-discussion so let's get there

[eager glade]

guesty is a guy who makes hello neighbor mods and ln fangames and guestyyy all I know him and cart made a fanmade trailer

[eager glade]

Yeah

[main verge]

Is hello neighbor free on epic games giveaway

[eager glade]

Also i wanna tell u a theory I thought of

In DMs

[main verge]

Yo into the mind is in steam workshop

Is it made by ozwald

[eager glade]

I think so

[high brook]

I wonder if hn3 could get a workshop

[eager glade]

I think it will

[lunar trail]

Into the mind is made by Cryxton

[high brook]

Which hn3 track goes the hardest

Genuinely which one

[night vigil]

This one imo

[high brook]

Yea

I agree

After all it was the first track we kinda heard for proto 2 (when it was heard in a teaser a while ago for p2)

[gleaming acorn]

they both made it

itm was (and still is) made by multiple people

[night vigil]

Idk what it reminds me of, it's based off of some other track that already exists I'm pretty sure

[lunar trail]

okay but i mean Cryxton is the main creator

anyway why was into the mind being discussed in hn3 chat anyway

i said anyway twice

[gleaming acorn]

(that's not a thing)

(you either have one creator or you're both co-creators)

anyways if you knew they both made it then you wouldn't have mentioned that cryxton made it when somebody was talking abt oswald

because it'd be worthless to add to the conversation

the way you replied made it seem like what they were looking at isn't actually the into the mind they're looking for

[lunar trail]

okay if we're going with that the newer credits just put Cryxton as the creator

ITM V2 credits at least

[gleaming acorn]

v2 doesn't count because v2 is not the topic of discussion

v1 is

and what i said in parentheses was regarding what was written in the moddb description and not something i was saying abt you

[vestal oyster]

Idk if this has been asked or answered already, but does the guest being called "the guest" actually have a meaning in hn3 or is it just cause that's what he's been called forever and it sounds cool

[severe merlin]

It has meaning

[tall sorrel]

!

[vestal oyster]

Cool! I'm really interested in the guest as a character more than ever, especially with his new deisgn

Also was "visitor" an early name for him? I think he was called that in the files back in the hn alphas if I remember

I like "the guest" more I'm glad it wad changed if that's the case

[signal geyser]

Januzh married?

In general, it wouldn't be bad to learn more information about the characters in general.

[rustic forge]

Hello Nikita! Will Janusz be in the "full glory!"? Or will we not see him?

[signal geyser]

MY BROTHER!

[near hawk]

Nah Grandeturisto doesn't answer Lore.

[low gate]

Pretty sure he was The Guest the same way The Neighbor is The Neighbor. If we were playing as mr peterson nicky would probably be known as The Guest.

[night vigil]

I could just be overthinking things, but The Neighbor in this pic is literally keeping the light from Raven Brooks like the Ending of Prototype 3. Once the Statue is finished, the Weather gets good and the daylight comes out, but when he breaks the statue of the guest, the weather instantly gets bad again. Just something I noticed

[signal geyser]

If I find out that a historian likes to bake, then I won't figure out the plot of the xn

[gleaming acorn]

iirc The Guest came first, they briefly switched to The Visitor because it'd have made more sense then, but they ended up going back to The Guest because it sounded better

grandeturisto sent a message abt it somewhere lemmie see if i can find it

[near hawk]

Gammy Flo was such a good baker She made golden apples. Therefore if Historian likes baking She is Gammy Flo.

/j

[bronze phoenix]

imagine if they do this in the game

[random shell]

I never noticed that that’s really interesting touch

I’m confused. The TV show and 3rd game makes him look like the bad guy but in the games he’s portrayed kind of misunderstood especially in hide and seek. Are they changing the canon on the previous games?

[lunar trail]

He's definitely a tragic villain, but that doesnt make him a good guy

[glad narwhal]

It’s cause overtime he goes insane and loses his sanity after everything the happened to him, and his own decisions too. Thats why in GN2, we see him in Guest outfit as a portrayal. It represents that he is just losing it and in peoples eyes in slowly becoming like Guest. A destructive symbol in the town, and what is he trying to do now. Destroy the town. He’s lost it, everything. His pain is being unleashed onto others.

And his own decisions I mean he still kidnapped a child, disregarded safety features, and experimented with time and slowly started to worry more on having control became he fears everything crashing down on him. Such as bad luck getting to him.

But ya know, he is mentally insane. And not safe to be around, he is a crashout. So, yea. It’s easy to make him tick.

[random shell]

Interesting, I also find it funny that we knew about the guest for six years and we know very little about it

[glad narwhal]

Yea. He was meant to have way more evaporation in many games which while he has been elaborated on, it just wasn’t in the way we expect for reasons such as the bankruptcy and other situations behind the scene.

[near hawk]

Well tehnically hello guest-hn2 alphas don't count because we know like everything about him there

When was HN2 Alpha 1.5 released?

[random shell]

2020

[glad narwhal]

At the time we didn’t

Know too much

Until like later on.

But we did have some info

[near hawk]

True.

Well we kinda had all that suggested Guest was Neighbor in Hg

[glad narwhal]

Patch 9 unfortunately became the expansion of story but not the way it was intended at all. Meant to be a teaser, slowly just became what we got. Disappointing but, they just wanted game to be longer and have more content. and they didn’t have ten budget or time because AS, which even then they need budget for too, even now.

[random shell]

I I wonder why they didn’t just hire third-party studio to make patch 10 like they did with the DLC

So then they could spend their time with the third game at the same time. I don’t know if that makes sense.

[near hawk]

Oh, this is kinda #hello-neighbor

[glad narwhal]

You know what would’ve been crazy. Like they scrapped the storyline idea early on and used it as a teaser. For HN2, as we know from the early alpha 1 teasers of trailers map. Like many people thought he was Guest, but people had second thought like there’s just no way, and it’s like the perfect way to trick people imo. Even in GN2 that just made things super weird, but in a good way.

[glad narwhal]

Correct

[random shell]

Yeah, but this is leading to the third game so we’re technically not outside the topic

[near hawk]

True

[glad narwhal]

Also true

[random shell]

If I was them, I don’t know if this would be ethical, but I would just charge patch 10 as a DLC so they can get some sort of monetization off of it because I would pay for it

[glad narwhal]

It would have to be a free expansion tho.

Other DLC’s are prequel storyline storylines to HN2.

[random shell]

IDK when do we think the third game will come out there’s online articles that it’s 2026 but I doubt that because that seems a little too early

[glad narwhal]

2028

Or 2029

[random shell]

That’s appropriate I didn’t mean this for like the shade aspect, but they could spend a whole year fixing all the bugs alone

[glad narwhal]

Yea

[near hawk]

2028 i predict. Around the same time it takes place

[glad narwhal]

Would be fire

[random shell]

It seems too late because they said they wanted to finish the game at a reasonable amount of time that would be more time. think that the second game finally came out on a lesser amount of time

[glad narwhal]

Just like how act 3 and finale take place 2017

[random shell]

My bets are 2027 probably during the fall

Because five years from 2017 the first one was 2022 the second one and then it could be five years to 2027 for the third one

[glad narwhal]

But consider the stage they are in rn

[random shell]

Fair

At least the maps done at least the foundation of it

My question is I don’t know if it was confirmed or not but everybody says that the neighbor is like 80 in the third game. I’ve been seeing on X and YouTube.

[near hawk]

Nikita confirmed it in the message i forwarded above me

[bronze phoenix]

hes a unc

is this the final design of the neighbor?

[signal geyser]

Yes

[bronze phoenix]

people use this as the Proto 1 logo

[chrome sun]

He's as tall as huggy wuggy 💀

[bronze phoenix]

he aint tall

he 6 foot

[chrome sun]

How tall are other character?

[bronze phoenix]

5 foot or smt

[chrome sun]

Yep he tall

[near hawk]

Looks closer to 7 foot actually. He is like 6'7 when hunched over so maybe about 6'10-7'0.

[bronze phoenix]

oh no

u said it

[near hawk]

Sorry.

Just the truth

[bronze phoenix]

ik

i have been scared by the brainrot

[near hawk]

Can't send images unfortunately but in devlog 1-2 i believe there is a height chart

Think it was 2

How did i forget the exact devlog when i just checked it a few days ago? Shush

[flat tinsel]

Love the new hn3 x adidas collab

[near hawk]

Peak

[flat tinsel]

Biggest flex in the hn franchise

Bro got the

[dense ruin]

The neighbor that we know was changed

[past cave]

no way i never expected this collab

[past cave]

ye XD
it looks good

[wild girder]

I would love for there to be a mini comic series about the three vandal's shenanigans.

[random shell]

It is very uncanny because he doesn’t look 85

Wait, that leads to another question. How many years is it in between the second game? I don’t know the whole timeline lore

[near hawk]

The second game takes place in 1996, HN3 in 2028

[high brook]

i wonder when next hn3 teaser

[sand flare]

The next teaser will be 2days 3hours 2minuets 62
Seconds after 7weeks and 2 years ago hope this helps

Jk 😜

[slim ice]

based on when Devlogs and teasers were posted on the tinyBuild channel, the average wait time is about 5 months

: (

[patent shore]

Hey, I want a few details abt The Guest's walk cycle animation or run Cycle

I haven't seen no animation nor work in progress just yet

And i haven't played The gane

Game*

[tawny geode]

oh wow that was rather quick

[patent shore]

WOAH THANK YOU SMM

[lunar trail]

i dont have the walk cycle imported and rendered, so heres just the run

[patent shore]

THAT'S MORE THAN PERFECT THANK YOU SMMM

[night vigil]

Yeah totally human

[civic totem]

I've seen 10 people irl who run like that

[civic totem]

We finally got clarification on if the Guest's name has any connotation after 6 years of speculation lol

[near hawk]

Nah we got it in Megam interview too

[civic totem]

I didn't watch that

[near hawk]

Well it was there. Tbf wasn't even that hard to figure but guest is an inverse of neighbor because in HN1 we go in his house, but in HG he was the one that came over to us. Although that was just the connotation for Hg

[civic totem]

...True

[night vigil]

Trust me, I know a werewolf Human Crow hybrid when I see one alright

[bronze phoenix]

thats why there is autmoated buses

[thin tundra]

@lunar trail Cool

@lunar trail But it does seem like a Run cycle it,s kind of hard to tell.

[trim warren]

dayum

[meager walrus]

yup

[random shell]

My theory is the game will release at the end of 2027

[timid kestrel]

Thats hopeful

We're still in prototypes

But idk im not following the news around the game lately but it really feels like they're taking their time with hn3 to save the franchise and make something truly special

But idk im not following the news around the game lately but it really feels like they're taking their time with hn3 to save the franchise and make something truly special

But idk im not following the news around the game lately but it really feels like they're taking their time with hn3 to save the franchise and make something truly special

[restive oxide]

why three times

[earnest cape]

I have a hunch it would be 2028. Would be fitting taking place the same time as the game.

[candid quartz]

I’m interested to see how hn3 will be

[narrow tapir]

Hey, I know this is a bit odd, but is there any way to get freecam in HN3?

[royal solar]

unreal engine unlocker

[narrow tapir]

Thank you so much!

[sharp current]

I missed a lot...,did they planned to release the full game soon?

[signal geyser]

nO

[sharp current]

Oh alr

I lost interest in this game since the proto 3

If they remake hello guest with the same atmosphere i would fly

I was a fan of the atmosphere from hello guest and hn 2 alpha 1

[grand snow]

Not gonna lie, this is kind of how I've been feeling about the third prototype. Not sure if it just me but it overall seems like a bit of a step back

[eager glade]

Its a 3rd prototype so I think there'll be much more endings

[grand snow]

Yeah but the point I'm trying to get at is that if you introduce a good and a bad ending, then not every choice can be the right one

[eager glade]

everything you do that is your choice is the right one

I don't think it rlly matters bad ending or good ending

[grand snow]

That's literally every single game ever 😭

[eager glade]

It's your story

[grand snow]

Yeah, just like falling into a bottomless pit in mario instead of jumping on the goomba is your story

[eager glade]

Think of it kinda like rdr2

High honor and low honor

[near hawk]

There is no true ending

[eager glade]

Your behaviour will affect the gameplay

[grand snow]

Yeah, like in Mario, you jump into the bottomless pit and you die and have to restart the level. Your behaviour has affected the gameplay

[eager glade]

Idi if its like Mario

If you restart the level it's just the same until u make it idk

[grand snow]

Yeah and if you run out of the time limit in HN3 you also restart the level and it's also the same until you make it and get a different ending

[near hawk]

Thing is HN3 is gonna have a lot more choices to be made than Mario.

[patent shore]

Do all The NPCs in HN3 have a wave emote?

[idle narwhal]

The ending you get by playing the game is not a bad ending. Just a neutral one.
You have to do stuff to get the bad ending.

[gleaming acorn]

there's three endings if you weren't aware

none of them are actually labled and could be either good or bad depending on how you view it

[idle narwhal]

There is not really a good ending either in P3.

[idle narwhal]

Oh wow, same thought.

<@&1162799252192379000>

Thanks.

[gleaming acorn]

who is fella fooling

[eager glade]

tbh i dont think any of the devs said anything is a good or bad

[idle narwhal]

Exactly.

[eager glade]

its just an ending of a way how you chose it so theres no bad or good

[idle narwhal]

Every ending is open ended and up for interpretations.

Even the Guest Ritual ending could end goody we just don't know it.

[eager glade]

even if you hit someone with a car thats your ending and it aint bad or good

[gleaming acorn]

the ending where i get to ||sacrifice the child to my beloved|| is the best one in my book

[idle narwhal]

Again, we don't know the actuall outcome, just a part of it.

I mean, the Guest removed the beak and that's it.
We do not know what happens after it.

We can assume it is nothing good, but who knows.

[gleaming acorn]

the vandals seemed to think that's what happens iirc

and like that's the best i got

maybe our dear forest dwelling guest is adopting this seemingly parentless child

and is actually a well-rounded member of society

[near hawk]

The guest reveals he is a Nice old Man and gives Isaac cake.

[idle narwhal]

Exactly.

'Lil Guest actually kidnapped the people because of his birthday.

[near hawk]

Yes sir

He actually has sleepovers with everyone he captures

[idle narwhal]

Correct.

[eager glade]

i thought we did know

he was the "kid im the mayor of raven brooks"

[wild girder]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-america-i-understand-i-got-it-i-know-gif-22069086

[wild rapids]

Some?

[past cave]

what if you uhh. ykwim

[restive oxide]

maybe if he uh
uhh
does the thing where he uh
yea

[late heath]

that was my favorite part where he did the thing where he uh yea

[past cave]

yes! that one

[lost glacier]

the music in devlog 3 is from HN3 + DirtChateau_01 from devlog 1

[lunar trail]

Guest tying the shoelace on the leg

normal human behaviour

[night vigil]

I am in love with these stupid little details

[near hawk]

Lol.
I love how when we see him chase us or whatever else he does he is like this terrifying, force to be reckoned with, and then he does silly stuff like this.

[eager glade]

He's learning better

He just gotta learn how to be more human

[night vigil]

He should learn how to not kidnap people first

And how to not run like a wild animal, although it does work out for him pretty well

[eager glade]

Maybe he kidnaps them so he can know how to do more human stuff

Maybe just Maybe... grandma taught him how to tie his shoes

[night vigil]

Yeah, by knocking them out 👏

[empty shell]

omg fit idea thanks guest 🔥

[eager glade]

The first time I heard u talk in a normal hn channel this year (u disappeared)

[empty shell]

im nervous okay

[mighty orchid]

Did somebody say guest shoelaces?

[dense ruin]

In HN3 we will probably see what happend to Quentin in HN2?

[neon ether]

Nikita, hi, sorry to bother you. I'm interested in the idea of the game Introversion. Can you tell me more about the purpose of the game and its mechanics?

[restive oxide]

doubt it

[eager glade]

maybe a secret message like beatrix

"Quentin was last seen in the museum and he never returned"

[sleek moat]

We will prob see in the show

[eager glade]

I think season 3 takes place before ruined town happens

I have a feeling of that

[sleek moat]

What do you mean the ruined town happend

[eager glade]

the photos In patch 9 shows ruined town

[sleek moat]

Oh yeah

[eager glade]

I think it goes like this when quwntin gets knocked out he escapes the cult then goes to the ruined town and does stuff there then Go to the patch 9 forest

Maybe that's how it is idk

[winged jungle]

I feel like in the end, it will get destroyed, for hn1 act 3 and hn3

[sleek moat]

Yeah I think ruined town is maybe a tiny bit before act 3

[winged jungle]

Yeah

[sleek moat]

Since we know Nikita couldn’t put hn1 to its full potential

That’s why it looks new

But still has that run down feeling

[winged jungle]

Man, it's alr Feb, and no trailer, kickstarter or poster, or even a cljp

Of s3

[sleek moat]

True

[sleek moat]

Well almost February

Let’s move this to #lore-discussion

[winged jungle]

Like 4 days left I think

[winged jungle]

Ok

[eager glade]

Maybe it'll show all the kids being just like nicky then guest screams then flash and hn3 will show up as an animation with the music and its all ruin look

[eager glade]

Huh why?

[winged jungle]

That would be peakness

[winged jungle]

Cuz it's kinda lore discussion

[sleek moat]

Off topic of hn3

[eager glade]

#hello-neighbor

Trailer is just all hype andstuff

[sleek moat]

True

[winged jungle]

T

[eager glade]

Let's move there

[untold grotto]

not really

[night vigil]

Is it just me, or does this look like the "Gray Manor" thingy from HN2 Alpha 2

[untold grotto]

ruined town is before forest section

[eager glade]

Hmm very similar tbh that's really interesting

Nikita showing off his old work

[sleek moat]

Forest section and main section are at the same time

[untold grotto]

yes

[night vigil]

It fits the whole " Oh look, Neighbor house" thing HN3 P3 did too

[winged jungle]

I want that abandoned buildhoard back, from hn2

[sleek moat]

I don’t think we will se any hn2 buildings in hn3

[eager glade]

The front window is opposite a bit

[sleek moat]

Nikita doesn’t like hn2

[eager glade]

I think he didn't like it cuz what it turned out to be

I think he still loves the environment and looks of it and houses

[sleek moat]

He should have never left

[night vigil]

Oh yeah that does look weird

[sleek moat]

I think he liked old art for hn2 better

[sleek moat]

The bedroom window is 2 separate when it should be one big one

[night vigil]

It's gonna be way more accurate ones they finish up the whole modelling and texture process trust

[eager glade]

It's one of those house remakes...

[night vigil]

• can we talk about this, idk why but I love these bts things

[gleaming acorn]

where is this....

[night vigil]

Tinybuild Twitter

[gleaming acorn]

i guess old man sosed ain't usin it as a cane....

[night vigil]

I would have loved that, but oh well

[eager glade]

Baker is janusz right?

Or a completely new guy

[night vigil]

Probably

I think he lives in the bakery

[eager glade]

imagine if gerda is the grandma and she's just baker now

Lol

[eager glade]

There's a bedroom in his shop too

[night vigil]

that would be pretty cool, storys actually connecting

[untold grotto]

yes

[eager glade]

huh doesn't look like a guy that can yoke that dough

Get it?

haha

[night vigil]

I mean yeah, they could have changed things, maybe there is a new (or old) Baker character

[eager glade]

hopefully

[untold grotto]

janusz already labelled as baker in p3 files
plus his concept art emphasizes that he works in a bakery

[rustic forge]

Yes Baker it's Janusz

[night vigil]

Well yeah, but we don't know what they've been cooking since then yk. ||(It's probably just him though)||

[eager glade]

Who wants to put his guesses on who this is

[untold grotto]

historian

[eager glade]

wait was I not focused on the art

[gleaming acorn]

this is modified neighbor

[eager glade]

Dang

[night vigil]

Oh yeah it is lol

[gleaming acorn]

i think i might be stupid

[night vigil]

Yeah same

[eager glade]

Me too

I thought it was mith

And it's a damn grandma

[dense ruin]

What show

[sleek moat]

The hn tv show

[sleek moat]

The hn tv show

[untold grotto]

i heavily doubt it

[high brook]

i think the backpack should return in hn3

[sleek moat]

lol

[wild girder]

I remember seeing this and thinking it was going to be some sort of news person or office worker.

[eager glade]

Me too even when the historian concept art released I thought that was like a new journalist man or mith

[wild girder]

I wonder if we're gonna get more "normal" looking characters like Jacob and Iris.

[random shell]

The most uncanny thing in the game is that Mr. Peterson doesn’t look 85

[eager glade]

I think cuz he's a worked out man

He's really fit

so ig that's why maybe

[random shell]

Yeah, I thought all the stress would make him look older

I wonder why they did such a big jump in the third game of the storyline

[eager glade]

I guess cuz of other stuff like books and act 3

cuz reset day (what most people think) takes place around 2021

It would make sense I guess cuz the kids in the 90s are adults in that book

[wild girder]

Btw. When did Nikita say this? Can you find the post/message?

[eager glade]

Yknow what would be cool

Is if we can talk to the npcs

Like when I first played prototype 3 i had no idea where the.stuff were

[restive oxide]

not gonna happen

[eager glade]

Maybe we can talk to the npcs and I'm the bottom it'll say stuff we wanna say like 4 option for example

"Hello"
"Who are the vandals"
"Do you know where a beak is?"

"Bye"

[eager glade]

it would still be a good idea most people outside the fandom would not know where items will be located at unless they use youtube

[random shell]

I wonder if they confirmed if the next release is gonna be another prototype or a pre-Alpha or something

[eager glade]

dang it.

[eager glade]

I mean alpha 1 probably idk if its a pre alpha would be another game with more cutscenes and better game improvement and its hard to call it pre alpha

I think they'll jump to an alpha 1 idk

[restive oxide]

the whole point is to explore and find things 😐

that's like adding instructions on how to solve a puzzle in a puzzle game

[eager glade]

still a good idea

[eager glade]

If an item is in a house next to the fountain for example we still don't know where it is it's in the house but we don't know where it is so we still try finding it in a closet or in the roof

[random shell]

They kinda lose charm of the game if there’s language

[wild girder]

Nikita. If you're seeing this, please can you confirm if this is true?

[random shell]

I’m sure they’ll be different game mode for free roaming. From prototype three you’re already given it a lot of time.

[high brook]

aw mann

well i guess its easier than making a bunch of languages for it

[untold grotto]

#hn3-discussion message

[wild girder]

Thx!

[gleaming acorn]

you're forgetting about the fact they literally have those in proto 3

the little notes on the stage, the map, the message in the cinema

[restive oxide]

yes but those are just hints
not a character straight up saying "the statue head? oh yeah it's in my house in the attic"

[gleaming acorn]

okay i take that back

i didn't read fully

[gleaming acorn]

yeah i jsut got to that part mb

[dense ruin]

Where

[sleek moat]

It’s on prime video and YouTube

[low gate]

But the interaction between the characters more than make up for that

[random shell]

I keep saying I wonder lol but what if any of the kids in the previous game/rtb are gonna be in like third game grown-up

[random shell]

It would probably help new people figure out the story

[glad narwhal]

Bru

<@&1162799252192379000>

[cinder eagle]

Guys

I cant wait for s3 hello neighbour show

[chrome sun]

Hopefully we see it this year.

[cinder eagle]

I think its in October

[eager glade]

The season is finished impossible for october

[chrome sun]

Probably in Summer.

[cinder eagle]

Or march

[royal solar]

yk i would not mind like an endless mode

survive in raven brooks with the storms and stuff regularly happening and helping the town's folk

maybe this endless mode could go slightly back into the RBO gameplay and we could potentially claim a house to survive in and do upgrades and repairs after each storm cycle!

[cinder eagle]

Guys

Do u think araon peterson will come in hello neighbour 3 show

[round oriole]

Yes

[cinder eagle]

Yo

[near hawk]

There's a Hello neighbor 3 show?!

[cinder eagle]

Its gonna come soon

Tiny build games are working on it

Ye

I wonder what happends to nicky

I liked him in s1

[cinder eagle]

Tbh delrios is cooked in s3

U wanan see leak of him

Its him in a shadow room

Neighbour coming

He cooked

What happens to nicky

Tiny bulid said the kids will be fine like nicky

[near hawk]

Wait this isn't related to hello neighbor 3 at all

Let's go to #hello-neighbor

[cinder eagle]

Oh mb br9

[hardy sky]

I recreated Amusement park ambient by ear

[nimble walrus]

Nice, recreation. Would be cool if it was remixed too and longer.

Also FL Studio?

Or different program

[hardy sky]

yeah, but im gonna switch to Ableton soon

synth is from Equator 2

[nimble walrus]

Nice! Can I suggest another recreation you could try. The song that was in Prototype 3 trailer.

[hardy sky]

https://youtu.be/LoFeVewEHvk?si=E_t_9ShczqgPs4wW
This one?

[nimble walrus]

Yep

[hardy sky]

thats a great suggestion! ill will try recreate that

[patent shore]

Did The creator of this game decide what's every NPC's fav food?

Im high-key interested in Jacob's and The Guest's

[sterile fossil]

I hope they finally finish Mr.Petersons Story in HN3

[patent shore]

Same same

I wanna see his lore

[thin tundra]

I wonder how the alpha versions will be.

[thin tundra]

I think the OG one looks cooler but the redesign still looks cool though.

[patent shore]

Uhhh.. what's y'all's fav NPC?

Mine are Jacob, Isaac and The Guest

Love how cute they look tbh

[night remnant]

Wwooooow

Its preatty good

[patent shore]

Why The hell am I Imagining The actual Guest's name to be Hank now...

[near hawk]

Wdym imagining

That's confirmed

[patent shore]

His name is Hank??

[night remnant]

Its just picture lol

Nah

[near hawk]

Just kidding

[night remnant]

[patent shore]

Nah nah
It would work to call this guy Hank then outta nowhere a group of cultists to just call The Guest Hank

[night remnant]

Bro why did u care about that

[patent shore]

"Hank, we have got You dead human"
"Crah crah"

[patent shore]

Cus he's my favorite

[night remnant]

And?

Why i need to change name?

[patent shore]

Where The heck did I even Tell You to change your name?

[night remnant]

Idk

But u said he’s name Guest (i know that)

Chill

[patent shore]

His name is the Guest (canon)
But what If his Real name was Hank, cultists would call him by his actual name If they wanted

[night remnant]

Its only my acc name lol

Circus

lol

[near hawk]

Bro they know

They're joking

[night remnant]

I dont think so

[near hawk]

Yes You do

[night remnant]

He tried to be old player I think

[patent shore]

I dont mind at all!

[open plaza]

here

[cinder eagle]

Bro the neighbour look like a old man is hello neighbour 3

[pseudo spoke]

Fork found in kitchen

[royal solar]

well i mean

he is like 80

[cunning cosmos]

He's looking rather lively for his age

[vocal stag]

Because he is running for exercises.

[cinder eagle]

In hello neighbour 3 will the neighbour be strong and fast

[vocal stag]

I think yes because in prototype 3 he is strong enough to carry big shovel and break statue.

[near hawk]

Strong, yes, but i doubt fast

[finite carbon]

The new Vandal and Isaac models look pretty good.

Signed looks so good!

[vocal stag]

Well I don't really think so because he is too dirty.

[finite carbon]

They’re dirty because the art style of the game is intended to be run down and half abandoned. It would make sense for the town residents to be dirty since it matches the aesthetic of the town.

[gleaming acorn]

compared to the two non-vandal characters we have, the vandals are indeed very dirty

[gleaming acorn]

well, it'd be four non-vandals but like the guest is running around outside on all fours and is dirty as well so i didn't feel it necessary to mention
and i don't know if jacob is actually finished or not

[gleaming acorn]

I'd say it fits for their characters, though

[vocal stag]

At least residence need to wash their clothes. But well vandals don't have home for wash their clothes and living ordinary life. So every vandal need to be dirty not only signed.

[finite carbon]

Yeah, its most likely for the Vandals

Considering Isaac’s model, It is likely that the vandals are just homeless

[vocal stag]

Maybe amusement park or cinema is their base.

[finite carbon]

Cinema seems the most likely

I think that the amusement park is sort of just public domain.

But the Vandals visit it the most

[vocal stag]

Also in prototype 3 there's sign where written Amusement Park Security and in notes there's face of signed. So maybe vandals occupate amusement park.

[gleaming acorn]

isn't coned's hideout actively in the amusement park

[vocal stag]

I think coned guarding it from residens so they couldn't stop their ritual.

[gleaming acorn]

it's not like it's next to the ritual area, though

[finite carbon]

That’s most likely the reason

[vocal stag]

He aggressive to everyone who in amusement park. So look like he guarding it.

[gleaming acorn]

possibly

that's mb i thought you were saying specifically the ritual area

[vocal stag]

Oh ok.

[finite carbon]

I’m curious about where Theodore will end up. The Peterson house is there but it’s destroyed, The museum is there but 2 residents visit the location so it’s not really private property. The next place I can guess would be the Mayak. It’d be really cool if Theodore lived in the Mayak.

[vocal stag]

Maybe he kidding in some place that we don't know. And well it will be cool if there's will be Mayak at least.

[vocal stag]

Also this screenshot with Mayak it isn't official its from some mod.

[finite carbon]

I know, Although it’s my personal favorite screenshot of the Mayak

And it remains pretty faithful to the original

[vocal stag]

I thing its get inspiration from mayak concept art because they're lake next to like on it concept art.

[finite carbon]

It seems like it

It’s pretty identical

[untold grotto]

it is

its from sn

[vocal stag]

No

It looks different

There's no lake next to it.

[mellow garden]

could be cool if it was used for mayak ambience in future HN3 Versions

[gentle pebble]

The mayak is destroyed

In GN2

[hot haven]

Is it possible to find and download this model somewhere?

[high brook]

no

he said he is not releasing it because there was just really no reason to

[hot haven]

It's a pity that this is so

[peak solar]

understandable though

this usually we don't get to see stuff like this

(and community members can probably remake it themselves)

[low gate]

It wouldnt be hard to turn the current guest into it i imagine

Its a very simple model

[hot haven]

For some reason, no one has done this yet, and I'm not particularly skilled in 3D modeling.

[eager glade]

I guess it's cuz it's still in early stages

[peak solar]

yeah, everyone's waiting to see where the game goes from here

It's kind of like revisiting Prototype 2 for nostalgia reasons when it

kinda just came out more recently

[dense ruin]

someone think what if we would make hn3 prototype 3 map in minecraft?

[hot haven]

it's cool, but I don't think it's entirely possible

[dense ruin]

in 80% its possible

[polar panther]

Do you think the Neighbor, Iris, Jacob, etc., have this skin color because the final game hasn't been released yet, or do you just think this will be the final design?

[untold grotto]

theyre final

[polar panther]

Do you have any theories about why that appearance?

[untold grotto]

its because they wanted to achieve uncanny atmosphere

[eager glade]

basically artstyle choice

[untold grotto]

yeah

[polar panther]

So there would be no reason in the scenario

Okay thanks

[untold grotto]

yes

its just how they look

[polar panther]

Otherwise, I like this style

[eager glade]

almost a month late

[polar panther]

Any theories about this keyart

[eager glade]

i think its js a cool thing in the end to show

[polar panther]

I think the neighbor will have total control of everything in RB

And maybe he is the one who controls weather, who knows

[eager glade]

not really i mean i think he caused the town to flood so yes

[polar panther]

I can't wait to see the final game

[eager glade]

me too

[polar panther]

What are the best theories you've seen about the upcoming game?

[near hawk]

#hn3-discussion message
This

#hn3-discussion message
And here's a continuation

[polar panther]

Thank you, but this is just Compared to the guest, right?

[near hawk]

It's about the guest, yes

But the guest from HN3

[polar panther]

Yess

Thanks

[raven pond]

Nostalgic

[royal solar]

i really really hope we get to explore the mayak in HN 3

that thing has been keeping me up at night for so long

[slim ice]

so apparently this is supposed to represent the "Neighbor Ending" in HN3? When you get all the townsfolk to the statue, the storm is shown to "clear up" and fade away. But, once Mr. Peterson destroys and knocks it down, it immediately becomes cloudy again. This kinda ties in with the art, showing when Mr. Peterson is present, he essentially brings darkness and despair to the town? or it could just be showing us what happens when Mr Peterson shows up... idk im not really sure on this one.

[fluid gate]

I believe it serves to show Mr. Peterson's relationship with the city; he is above the other citizens, he knows or has control over something within Raven Brooks.

This image makes me see something both positive and negative due to his position being greater than Raven Brooks. Positively, he can be a "hero", a "protector", the one who keeps the city standing, but nobody knows. Negatively, he can be a controller; the fate of the city is his due to the power in his hands.

[eager glade]

Same idk if its destroyed or not I hope it isn't cuz its the most important place of all

[drowsy edge]

So Nostalgic.

[near hawk]

That's actually awesome.
At the end of the day, it's your story, where every decision is the correct one.
If from your perspective, he has a negative role, so will he be in your story.
If you think he has a positive one, he will have it.

[near hawk]

I can see it both as him overseeing the town and as him blocking light to Raven Brooks.

[near hawk]

Oh, I also made my own theory that is built on the other one
#lore-discussion message
Not as fleshed- out but I'd say it works.

[eager glade]

just wanna point out these 2 are jacobs parents

probably

[near hawk]

I'm pretty sure the woman from the image is young Historian

Iris can't be too much older than Isaac because they are siblings, and I assume Jacob and Iris are around the same age

Historian is the oldest from Raven Brooks, which means she is older than even the neighbour, making her older than 85.

That is to say Historian can't be Jacob's mother

[eager glade]

not sure one of them are holding exactly what the letter says

[gentle pebble]

It is in GN2

[eager glade]

dang it

[gentle pebble]

Even if it’s in HN3 it would be destroyed

Unless Theo rebuilds it

[near hawk]

It's still there in RD iirc.

[polar panther]

I dont know but it seems like when the statue is done, weather clears, but neighbor destroys it and rain comes back

[polar panther]

Yes this is true

[eager glade]

who knows maybe since storm returns when he shows up in the ending

[polar panther]

That theory is way off base; Jacob and Iris were exposed to the violet ray of the Mayak

[eager glade]

how huge would mayak building be would it also have the pit or "well" underground

[near hawk]

I mean maybe

[polar panther]

I think the neighbor has changed the entire structure and that it doesn't just allow you to change the weather

[gentle pebble]

Read GN2

[near hawk]

Have

And I'm pretty sure it was still there in Reset day

[eager glade]

When does gn2 take place anyway?

[near hawk]

Like...

Yeah I don't think we know really

I'd say the flood is probably the storm that ruins the town in HN2, or like a version of it for the books time loop

But also, they have phones in it so...

Yeah

[eager glade]

maybe after reset day

Wait

When did the book release

[near hawk]

I know Reset day takes place in 2021

GN2 is kind of sorta unknown

[eager glade]

The book

When did it relase

Like come out

[near hawk]

Reset day?

[eager glade]

nope gn2

Wait nvm I searched it

In 2021 and also since you read it was there a eyeball on the roof of the weather station?

[near hawk]

GN2?

[eager glade]

Yes

Graphic novel 2

[near hawk]

Pretty sure.

Let me check for a sec

[near hawk]

Ok so I don't think we really get to see that

[eager glade]

Hmmm suspicious indeed.

So maybe it's a different weather station in raven brooks?

[gleaming acorn]

jacob is not iris' brother big dog

you can find iris and issac' family picture in their house

jacob is notably not included

[gleaming acorn]

two of them, actually

[cunning cosmos]

Heya man, they actually did say isaac.. not Jacob/:

[gleaming acorn]

did you read the message i replied to at all

guy doesn't even correct it, after

WHAT

dude i am DELUSIONAL that's mb

that is mb

[cunning cosmos]

Yeahh i did..

[cunning cosmos]

Lmaooo ur algs man

Happens to us all

[queen sapphire]

Hello Nikita, are you planning to show us a new finished model this week? It would be interesting to see the Historian

[cinder eagle]

Guys we might see Aaron in hello neighbour 3

And he might be a teen-ager if we see hello neighbour who's like 80

[gleaming acorn]

he'd be in his forties

it's been 32 years since hn2

[gleaming acorn]

neighbor's 85, specifically

[gleaming acorn]

yk, assuming hn2 and hn1's first acts are in 1996

[cinder eagle]

He might help neighbour since hello neighbour 2 he helped

[eager glade]

cough cough 85 cough coug

[eager glade]

or hes just dead

people who dont eat cant grow up

so aaron doesnt eat

and now he hasnt eaten for 32 years

[cunning cosmos]

The word "guest" has been completely ruined for me)': like i can't hear it and NOT think of that cool lil bird man

[cunning cosmos]

What makes you say 85 specifically?

[untold grotto]

nikita did say he born in 1943 and hn3 takes place in 2028

[cunning cosmos]

As far as im aware there isn't anything in the game that actually confirms the date/: The newspaper at the end says 2031 but "unsolved to this day" implies that specific paper wasn't published till years late

I remember Nikita saying he was 80 right? I can't find the message but im pretty sure thats what he said

[untold grotto]

#hn3-discussion message

its 85

[cunning cosmos]

Ohhhhh

Sick

Nvm he is 85 lol

[untold grotto]

idk if this is a coincidence but if you put 2-66-94 as coordinates

it teleports you to some assetflip

[cunning cosmos]

Oh weirddd

I saw that when using the debug camera, wonder why it teleports you there

[untold grotto]

its roller coaster thingies and metal fence

[eager glade]

thats actually interesting

[brave thunder]

that's next to world origin which is 0,0,0
