Hello
HI BROTHER!
why wouldn't he survive
I don't want to see him in the basket with Iris, Isaac, little car
i mean
I want nukes in pre alpha
they wouldnt scrap more npcs would they
Like in vintage?
Who knows? Resources are not infinite.
I want be able to launch them on neighbor's house
Okay okay just please let’s end this argument
I guess it is already destroyed
you're a bit late
🙁
I wonder if there will be new characters? Or will they just be getting rid of them now?
Nikita said he doesn't know if there's gonna be more new characters
New character idea zsunaj! Its a green buff millionaire with a story!
We lost an old man 🙁
(please note subject to change as resources are not infinite)
My friend @lunar trail made this i would honestly love something like this in Hello Neighbor 3
Yes this is based of the hn book Reset Day
That would actually look so cool
you are describing janusz in that photo on his desk
what if in hn3
the neighbor steals the moon
and has an army of yellow town folks
ts server is out of things to say in this channel
them few days was like a desert
Im not
I have a very good question for nikita
Man this looks beautiful I’d love more stuff like this in the game. Devs should take some notes here.
I wonder if this from RBO will be in HN3 in any way. (Like different clothes for example)
This is awesome
Hello Everyone.
Hello, Nikita! I want to ask you, are we able to see some characters return in full game, or we’ll might get some hints on their fates? Like grave or missing poster or something like that, just to know that they’re still here or not. I understand if you don’t want to answer now because it’s a lore question
Hello Everyone.
i have so many Ideas
About what?
it wont
nikita said something like since nobody can see you in the game, there's no need to customize
even then theres lore for the protagonist so
what im saying is you cant customize who you play as if the character you play as has lore
theres a reason as to why things are designed the way they are
not always
hi
hello
I wonder if there would’ve been a “canon” one like for sonic forces
prolly not
but
meh
or its gonna be biggest joke from them like in deltarune
"Hello neighbor" ahh house
would want to live in that house ngl
Bro it scrapped
well if there would’ve been I meant
have you looked in the basement yet
No
this looks like it’s from a hn1 mod called “hello secret” or sum
are you able to link the actual message this ss is referencing? The date feels off as HN3 wasnt announced till November 2024, and the date is pre November so i doubt we knew of Jacob at the time
i did research, its referring to RBO as Jacob was a playable character at the time
(i realize i didnt read the "this from RBO" part till now, i hate dyslexia)
still odd i cant actually find the message in the screenshot tho
you need to get the archive role from id:customize
also fandom is not a good source
Thanks, this makes more sense
Bro we know Jacob iris coned covered signed rbo
Janusz isaac histoiran is new
I was forgot they was in rbo not gonna lie
its a different new character
not iris
we know little of them
theyre new to Raven Brooks, so its not Iris as she is an established resident
Nah.
It's unknown If Iris will even return to the game, and the protagonist was worked on before Nikita said he is unsure of whether Iris'll return
She change story probably
Hey does anyone know how I can play prototype 1?
You can’t
Wdym
Play tests are closed
If you had finished Prototype 2 I think there is a way to still ply it
No only a fangame called “Signed Secrets”
And in Roblox after Mayak which is gonna be like GTA VI but hello neighbor 3 edition
I think I said something bad
This makes me wonder something to myself. Even though we're not playing as Iris, which would you rather? remove Iris NPC but make her playable character or Remove Jacob NPC and make him playable character? (I know Iris is already removed, this is just a hypothetical question)
İris
Is there a lore reason for the residents of of raven brooks just randomly changing skills n colour from normal black white tan etc to blue green purple? Or is it just a design choice?
I just find it interesting how there's always been the normal skin colours and all of a sudden we got green yellow purple. Yet the neighbour retained his original colour so something must have happened after hn2 to have caused the changes in the residents complexions
there is
or you can just use steam depot to get them
whoops
there is not
its just an stylistic choice
Mk. I just think it's interesting how through the entire series they have the normal colours for skin then all of a sudden it's the whole damn rainbow like something out of star wars you know? Still. Interesting
Just a design choice, and the neighbor has the same skin color because he's too iconic, if he looked really different it would have seemed weird
he hasnt same color
more green-ish
But it is simillar to the og, he would've looked weird if he was purple
true
looks like a salvidor dali painting,
where did you get that picture
I think nikita sent it here.
@haughty tangle
hey nikita not sure if u can answer this but is everything really not supernatural in raven brooks or is that a joke
The game.
Anyways I got a question for yall, so since the Game takes Place in 2028 will it come out in 2028?
For Me thats a good question that i should share
i dont think they would plan a release date like 3 years ahead
Could.
I doubt it was a random date, it could at least be a deadline of sorts
i dont think if yall ask nikita lore related question hes going to answer
you guys should try asking more gameplay related questions otherwise we will have full qna sessions filled with "cant answer story related questions, sorry"
Who knows in about how long the pre-alpha hello neighbor 3 will be released
noone
he still answers some story related question sometimes.
It's also not so story related
Just confirmation
Kinda is tbf
not really
Cuz it's already been answered
My only request is confirmation for it
It's not anything new
i dont think there are many developers who plan a release date when theyre still making the pre-alpha...
that means nobody knows
Alr ty
Nikkita? Will we still have the storm to kill us like in Prototype 1? Or will that just be a weather setting?
How did you got the idea of making a game about stalking a creepy neighbor
I believe the storm is meant to have story purposes so it's going to stay in the game.
I see…Thanks Cosmix
The storm is a main part of the game.
You're supposed to explore and such until it arrives, then You restart everything with info gathered before the storm, making it be more of a progression rather than an actual game over.
Okay
So it remains basically
dev diary... dev diary... you need to see the dev diary...
i will acquire the dev diary for you
i predict we will get to see finished iris model and then pre alpha
They aren’t making it right now 😭
Why waste time on modeling a a character right now when it won’t be in the game version you are preparing to release.

thanks.....
we don't exactly know if they are "preparing" for release
Yeah
I just mean currently Iris is not being used, so I doubt they will show a model and or make an updated model during this development period.
True we've already been told iris ain't gonna be in it so if she ain't in it she isn't
I wonder how close we are
For God's sake, Nikita, stop discarding more characters. I always thought they were good.
it's not if they were good or not
it's if Nikita could fit them into the story or not
if they don't fit yet, they have been put aside for the time being
if Nikita can't work them into the story, they get cut
Hey nikita What you used to texture the old art style hello Neighbor 1 items?
I love your pfp
I want the full image rn 😭
Yes is hello Neighbill, the official.
Have the Full Image here:
Sorry, can’t send though
Fake devbill
to my knowledge, that wasn't Nikita's job
somethings coming ether today or tomorrow i feeeel it....

oh mate i cannot wait to come back to this message
Not sure what you mean.
I guess, just Adobe Photoshop
They probably didn't know that Elena textured the objects most of the time (I think?)
On the earliest stages we had one more artist and I also modeled a bit. But regardless, we all used photoshop for texturing
Oh I see, I figured that you Elena did pretty much all of the artist work in early development until the art style change around Alpha 2 and 3, I never heard of another artist
How's development going on
Pretty good! Can't wait for everyone to play pre-Alpha)
Are the devs, including you enjoying the process?
will it be easier on knowing what to do in the game
Is Pre-Alpha fun to make
What if pre alpha comes out wit season 3?
Best day ever
Yes! ||(I hope
)||
Yep
and i hope i won't see 15 fps by the end of the session
🤞
i feel like were getting closer..
What are your pc specs?
intel core i3 10th gen, 1650 super and 24 gb ram
Yees my pc intel core i5 760 and amd Radeon RX 480 8gb this is problem run fine
Has anyone play-tested it yet or is it too early?
Soon maybe
Giblet! ||heroe||
I wonder what pre alpha will offer if Nikita does a good job with this
I wish it had been running good for me to. I didn't even complete it cuz lags. I had like 10-15 fps at the storm section and 30-40 fps at the rest of the game. However I enjoyed playing it even with low fps
it was like 60 fps for me in max graphics
Did you have this level of performance on low?
Yes, and I even tried to set a lower resolution. Didn't help.
or atleast from what ive seen/heard
its mostly because of npcs ai
When's the Protagonists Reveal
Do you now use tools like "Substance Painter", "Armor paint" or "Quixel"?
I assume, since Eeree Guest Studios are part of TinyBuild, you have acces to atleast some tools from Adobe. (Not just Photoshop).
That might be piotrs job or the other guy
Yeah, but someone has to pay for those tools. Maybe they still use Photoshop or even Blender for texturing.
I think TinyBuild is paying for some tools (if it's within the budget).
piotr is just character artist i believe
By the "Next version", you mean after pre-alpha? RC car and Isaac - for sure, it's too early to say for Iris. She is moved even further.
its inspired by the game "Gran Turismo". I love this series and I picked this nickname when i was 15-16-ish
i used to have that game
They hide their faces for metaphorical reasons, masks and hiding their faces give them a different identity, a destructive identity.
Small unrelated to HN3 question. Whenever you play Hello Neighbor 1 and 2, how do you approach invading the homes? Do you try to be sneaky or do you just brute force your way through?
hide from the real world basically
Isaac?
Guest is like a god to them I'm pretty sure, Isaac is like a sacrifice.
Why Isaac
if you guys are fielding problems people have been having with the game in order to get a feel for stuff that still needs fixing i got something. Although i don't know if you'll accommodate my specific use case (trying to run the prototypes on my mac with parallels desktop).
Classic HN kidnapping kids
children are sinless
that too
I know
what about this one,...
Your nickname always reminds me of this scene from The Diamond Arm. "Ruso turisto - oblico morale"
Hello! Do you think that Ilyich could return to radios in HN3?
Yes, I tried to run the game (and UE5 editor) for fun in parallels and had the same issues. I don't think we will address it.
Maybe there will we a native macOS version in the future, we'll see 
thanks for letting know, I thought so you made some. You were alone with earlier prototypes, right?
Are there any plans to change the Steam page to be more accurate to the current state of the game?
i mean #work-in-progress message
How did I miss that? Thanks
I wonder if Hello neighbor 3 will have the parkour mechanics from the alpha versions of hello neighbor 2?
Why specifically the mechanics from the HN2 Alphas? It's not like HN2 Full Game Climbing was that different from the HN2 Alphas Climbing.
idk, ok. from just HN2
do you mean that climbing
by that
yes
if so then i hope that gets added too but its fine either way
didnt nikita say there wont be climbing
i remember someone telling me that crouch jumping thing in prototype 3 is intentional? assuming it is its kinda weird
i dont know
We don't talk about him.
He told me they might consider bringing it back I think. I wish I had the message
Think they said they aren't sure actually
I do remember him also saying he doesn't want to add it
i did a lot of parkouring in prototype 3 and ive seen other youtubers doing it a lot too i think it would be useful to bring it back
Same, especially this game needs the climbing from HN2 in my opinion
The HN2 climbing was actually good
i pretty much agree with the whole thing here but in my opinion the climbing mechanic made the hn2 alphas feel better idk how to explain it
Any plans for Marketing on HN3
in hn3 parkouring felt like youre in roblox
to me of course idk how it was for anybody else
The problem with climbing is that if the player can do it, the AI has to be able to do it too.
it was a lot of fun yeah
HN1 vacuum could solve this all.
the ai doesnt parkour tho
Give the ai propeller hats problem solved
Long ranged tools for the AI.
But wasn't that like a golden rule of HN3. Anything the Player can do, the AI can do too?
the hn3 characters all have extremely long limbs
they can just reach up and yoink you
Guest...
...yeah? all includes the guest
I thought the rule was "There is no wrong choice"?
The hn3 characters will have jetpacks courtesy of Jacob and janusz
'a' golden rule, not 'the'
That also yeah, there's a lot of rules I feel like
even the fellas in paintings have freaky limbs
and pictures
i think in most cases the ai could just use items and knock you off i think parkouring for the ai is too much
That one guy for the banner who was standing in the doorway
Which is kind of dumb I mean if the choice you choose doesn't get you to your own goal then it is the wrong choice.
That is a good point
This is the guest
blockout version of the guy, but still the guest
wasnt that what devlog 2 was about
the ai chooses whats cheaper
or something like that
Yeah, something like that
but the point of hn3 is to explore not get to a goal
Players always have a goal no matter what.
image
from grandeturisto
Exploring isn't wandering aimlessly either, you typically see something cool like a special room in a building but you take a wrong turn and you end up somewhere else. Wouldn't that have been a wrong choice?
i mean everyone has a goal in the town
and im sure the player has too depending on what you want to do
I wonder what Isaac's goal is.
"don't get murdered" seems like one of them
I'm pretty sure that's a goal they all have
I hope
Hopefully not rage bating in the Descord chat.
I guess but the town still works together. We saw the checkbox for the festival. So "avoid getting slimed out" is probably out of the equation
???
storm came by the time i saved issac
and then i never managed to save that loser again
because i'm an L gamer
i sort of did but like i had to remove all the foliage
it was so ugly!! 😭
speaking of the main menu
i hope we get an actual 3d background for the menu
in pre alpha
True. Maybe of coned or signed outside an abandoned house
Or a small bit of the guest visible through a window
i mean like animated and moving and allat
im pretty sure all the backgrounds are 3d
just static
That's what I mean
player's bus driving through the wilderness to get to raven brooks on loop
and you can see the player reading their stuff
thru a winder
thats genius
Btw do we have an official player model?
not yet
Peak
It’s a joke thing that was said the neighbor rage baiting in discord chat.
Yes, but we've only seen the arms
oh that yeah
its just not revealed
I have haven't seen it
grandeturisto posted the screenshot with the arms in #work-in-progress
in the 4th image
fella is a gray person
which i just now realize is another way to indicate they aren't related to any of the townies or vandals
Looks like iris wearing a bangle or something
as they're skin, as skin does, appears genetic
iris is purple
and iris is a separate person
(The Guest who has similar skin colour)
not as purple as iris' family, is what's important
chat is this true
Is it not
Yeah, I officially don't know! The protagonist's skin color looks similar
to the rest of the characters
is this a typo
protagonist
not protag
i know what protag means
i mean like if you read the message
it's confusing me
fixed it
What are chances it's a relative of Nicky OR one of the kids from secret neighbour but now an adult?
probably none
oh
then i read it correctly
the characters all have different skintones (unless blood related from what i can tell)
we're completely new to the town so like yeah
i don't mean the concept of them having unnatural skin, i mean the specific colors
if that's where we're meeting a misunderstanding (i'm not quite sure)
Ah
i like how the cursor thing in the center is like from the hn1 alphas
Imagine if Nicky shows up halfway through and says "hello neighbor! I'm Nicky Roth. That mean guy over there is Mr Peterson. Id avoid him though... He's got secrets hidden in his basement"
but i do prefer the hello guest one all the way
Hello guest had a lot of potential
But never reached it
ts not happening
i mean i liked it
40 year old nicky roth in hn3 style PLEASE I NEED HIM
it was fun already
lichally like in any hn game
i don't care if it's like demolished or something, i just need some remnant of fella
it's been 11 years since act 3, something could've happened
Maybe the ruins of his old house. And we can find the guitar
but not something that completely makes his house poof out of existence
Like the guitar in hn1 that you can play
He was probably in his late 20's early 30's in hn act 3 so I'd say he's close to 50 by hn3?
But then Peterson would be at least 70 or 80 in hn3
Which wouldn't make sense
hes like 85
It would go crazy if it did. I’m hoping this happens now
hello guys.
im not imo nicky needs to be wrapped up already
and nikita said theyre not bringing back old characters for fan service
Well yea
Same, amazing writing
Well at least include his house you know. Even if it's just the foundations of the house.
yeah well i support that part
i get that its like artistic choices or something but like
Then when you go in you get a flashback to Nicky box towering and falling over
why make it make no sense
But it's done in the way that it's like Nicky is being controlled by a player so the movement is all janky
An in depth flashback to the trashcan flying even
Nah. An in depth flashback to Nicky using the bucket flying glitch
like rebuilding nicky's house for hn3 would require roughly the same amount of energy as building the house thats currently there instead of nickys house
Did we even see the neighbours house yet?
its half demolished
Does someone got a pic?
it would be cool if the neighbor still lived in those ruins
Is there a house across from it?
you could see it in a yt video
nicky's age is like 12 in act 1/2 and hn2 n such, like 33 in act 3, and like 44 in hn3 (assuming nicky is actually 12 in hn1)
peterson's age is 53 in act 1/2 n hn2 n allat, 74 in act 3, and 85 in hn3
As much as I would love to see at least his house in the game if it isn’t needed at all to the game then that’s fine. Otherwise it’s just a random house there
i don't even want nicky back or like anything plot related for him or whatever i just want his house 😔
yes, it does
Idek what iirc means
there's not even anything replacing nicky's house iirc it's just straight up gone
it means "If I'm remembering correctly"
Ah
Weird
yeah
They should have the ruins of it then
i think nicky's story is all good and done, i don't want him coming back as the guest or as some guy who dies or beats up sosed or whatever
i just want it to seem like he existed
Ik. I just want there to be evidence that he DID exist and he DID live there
a house doesn't up and leave in 11 years
its fine if his house isnt there
well yeah but he's peterson
but i really didnt like how in hn2 they just straight up replaced it for no reason
he's GONNA have to be there no matter what
Agreed
True
they USED to have his house, too
Well the house could’ve gotten a better job opportunity than in raven brooks so it could’ve moved away
did they
you can supposedly see it in early trailer type things
from before they switched artstyles
i'll get an image later
but in hn2 fg they just have a generic background house
hn2 was overall not executed well so im not surprised
it was fine but not good
A building just grew legs and walked off to start a job in law? Nah. Not possible. Houses prefer catering
cant judge too much tho i never played it
Look. We can agree on this. Even if it's unexplorable or out of bounds etc. they need to show evidence of Nickys existence
That he was in raven brooks but moved away
Maybe an old missing poster
Anything
My house once did that though.
Did he win any cases?
Or maybe they all pushed raven brooks somewhere else like that episode of SpongeBob and that’s why Nicky isn’t there because his house got left behind.

Mb.
Can't be assuming houses genders in the big 26
Does she take vicodin?
No but she is greeen.
Greeen like Teddy...
Or like Janusz...
From peak video game Hello Neighbor 3
stole images from twisted egg
distinctly nicky's house, you can tell because of the windows and vague house shape and front door area n such
it doesn't appear too detailed but at least they tried
Dude i still wish we got that build
why to add it if it has no gameplay purposes
continuity
what story does nicky even have left
no need to "eye candy" locations
and would be pretty much filler
aaron should be in hn3 I highly doubt his is over
if you know you know
the fake guest if you will
I completely forgot about fake guest.
or the real guest but still fake
well i probably worded it horribely
but its like
so if that's fake guest we haven't seen the real one yet of course and I don't know if we will
And I don't know if those lines are bars or strings
but with the early model of the guest it seemed like they were strings
il keep that in mind
oh yeah also one thing I'm confused on since the pre alpha- prototype 3 map is a forever map till the full game there won't be any other places right?
like no more houses that are outside of the town
since nikita has more "realistic" storytelling most of hn3 stuff is symbolic
like statue stopping the storm
there would be i think
which is very confusing cuz statue is for the guest worst part is nikita doesn't know who the guest is in hn2
"fake guest" what do you mean there's a fake and real guest?
yeah more houses will make the map bigger as nikita said I wonder if some old hn3 teasers will also be in final game
it's confusing but yes ig
So the real guest is some occult God?
hard to tell really its like fake guest in prototype 3 and real guest who is the forest dweller in prototype 2 I think I dunno
Judging by the cult in hn2
what if its the other way around?
the real guest is traffic cone fella... oh my god......
Wait. Actually here's a reasonable question. Sure it could be "design choice" but why the sudden proportion changes in hn3? The guest looks originally more like Peterson in hello guest and hn2. But in hn3 he's like damn slenderman
I think it's cuz of the files on what they call them I'm not sure I never looked into the files well.. not anymore since I didn't get a chance
theres no need to use prototype 1-2 (even 3 since story changed) stuff since they barely had any story
Wait let me cook something up
Someone uninstalled hn3 in my room
everyone had proportion changes
ragebait ahh
he looked like peterson because he was designed to BE peterson in-costume
"real" guest would be something like this if theres 2 guest
he has a new design in hn3 fully, no longer needing to be tethered to peterson
so I guess we just have to wait till pre alpha right?
yeah
Og guest who looks like Petersons build is or 'was' a vessel for the true guest who is some kind of God as evident by the whole cult stuff in hn2. Hence the extreme proportion change
keep in mind that theres a whole another npc folder named Guest
Could be right it may not be a "guest" but that's what locals call him
I mean where did they get the idea of him looking like that
besides the museum history stuff
don't want to be rude but
Fair enough
they see it as their god, and its statue stops the storm, brings prosperity to the town
But the way I meant it is like how a werewolf is. Except instead of once every blue moon it's gradual. It's happens over time. The body breaks and reforms itself
Speaking of cult under the museum there's this catacombs like hallways that lead to gaap are they even catacombs?
So og guest is like an egg for the true guest to hatch out of in a sense.
theres no og guest
I seee
so what your saying the guest like posesses people and takes them over?
what you call og is hn2 guest which is not important to hn3
I swear on me nans dogs cousins owners best friends uncle that Nikita mentioned og guest.
And when vandals steal the statue items they replace it that looks like the guest (the one that kidnaps us)
so they have a god too
But it's different
hn3 tells its own story, you won't need any other medium to understand its story
Wouldn't all this Guest talk be more fitting for https://discord.com/channels/474299944254308373/768152883765444608
hello
In a sense. So when a werewolf sees a full moon its human form breaks or more so grows to resemble a wolf. Except I imagine that instead of every full moon the guest is gradually growing to resemble true guest. (The guest from hn2 and hello guest are like a worshipper but in the way that quirrel from Harry Potter allowed Voldemort to be on the back of his head)
we are talking about guest in hn3 though
yeah but I don't really wanna kill the conversation unless everyone Goes to #lore-discussion
I think the neighbor isn't cool. I think he's radical
BuB: the guest possessed nicky!!!!
I do
all of citizens know
I love the model
most people don't like his uncanny look
imagine this theory is so stupid it becomes true 💀 👀
vandals see forest dweller as friend
citizens as enemy
and FD sees all of them as enemy
i mean why would citizens worship someone they see as "enemy"
FD?
forest dweller
Ah
Actually one question Ik it isn't hn3 related but who's the guy that knocks us out in the end of hn2?
With the lovesh
the storms starts after festivals cancelling in 1980 if you ask me
my theory is the guest
they fear their god but love him I guess that's maybe how it works if it kills that's his decision vandals can't force their god to stop so ig that's why they still love em
I think (and this is stupid) but the hat man
why do these tiktakers think this Is a good theory
You wanna know what the worst part
Even some people in this fandom
and gaap opens sometime at 1984 or before 1984
imagine its pre alpha man the whole time (crazy plot twist)
My theory is that The Guest isn't an actual thing, it's just some sort of mythical made up being that's connected to the town's origin so it's culture for them to celebrate it. The Guest we see in the game killing people is just a mad man or something who's impersonating it.
baby's first game theory
Ngl idk what gaap is or the festival stuff influencing the FD is about
golden apple amusement park
Wait hang on a second the guest kills people?
Seems like it.
People thought this was maritza btw
I'm not even joking.
it IS like that
confirmed in both old and new storyline
Been confirmed
Who the hell is Maritza 😭
girl from wtrb
yes this is it or its like theres 2 entity
well
I know it's just those wtrb fans saying anything
since nikita said theo will have an unhomely appearance does that mean neighbor is homeless
Idrk what unhomely means
but I think it's that?
I personally don't see there being 2 Guest characters in the game. I'm confident that it is just some guy impersonating this urban legend.
i mean he explained what it means in devlog didnt he
I might have forgot
fair enough
I think it was devlog 2
yes
and golden apple company is kinda against the guest in this storyline
Uncanny. The feeling of something being eerie but creepily familiar.
they are causing raven brooks to break away from its culture
this also connects with my old janusz theory
Oooh. NGL, I would be down for that if that's what they're going for.
Gaap must be some foreign company then?
now I just have a sense of theo stalking us and we're gonna feel like we're being watched like actually feel like that
or analysis if you will
Link? Where can I see this?
Fair enough theory
How on earth did you come up with that theory?
we should probably add a bit more theorising now that we seen janusz finished model since he has a ring or does that not matter
I don't know Russian or Ukrainian
janusz has a wife named Grażyna in polish culture
Janusz has the Benjamin button disease and is married to iris
I'd upvote this If i could.
mostly because of the name "janusz"
Oh. I thought there were actual in game clues that hinted to that.
Wow how did you come up with that
I don't know what janusz means bro 😭 I'm Irish idk anything about polish or Russian or Ukrainian cultures
Languages etc etc
it links to this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janusz
Janusz is a masculine Polish given name and a surname. It is a Polish form of the Latin name Johannes.
well no
wrong page
Hey I just searched Google on what janusz name means and Where its from.and yes it's polish it's meaning also means "god is gracious"
So it's like alluh ahkbhar being god is great?
Janusz is a pejorative term used in Poland by Poles to describe individuals embodying stereotypical negative traits attributed to their own society. Typically depicted as a middle-aged man with a mustache, he is often portrayed wearing a white tank top, white socks paired with sandals, and having a large belly, frequently carrying a discount sto...

thats also confirmed by nikita in this message - #hn3-discussion message
I guess so I'm muslim so more of this vandals knowing guest kills makes sense to me
theres few
- mentions of tasty bakery as a whole building itself and in a photo
- janusz working on golden apple supermarket while literally having a tattoo of tasty bakery
- nikita mentioning janusz as "something something with past" (lol i forgot he said)
and his cashier role fits with the meaning of the stereotype
plus he has a ring that possibly reference to Grazyna
I wonder what made him not work there anymore bad luck? we don't know
its not because he understands the changing
interesting.
yeah yeah
he survived it because he always chooses whatever keeps him afloat one more month
this
makes sense actually
in hn3 the town has 3 era if you will
pre golden apple
during golden apple
post golden apple
post golden apple is when you start the game
pre golden apple is whole festival and god guest thing
sometime sometime 1800s-1979
during golden apple 1980 - the date the town was half abandoned (?)
during GA is both RB's best and worst days actually
Well it was when they abandoned the festival sorta no
thats why i said both best and worst
But i guess the Guest still being a symbol for the Golden Apple would sorta balance it out some way
there should be more very important areas like the museum
I'm sure museum gave alot of lore
probably historian will too
because shes not an historian actually
townspeople call her "Historian"
Oh?
I'm pretty sure that's exactly what they're gonna do. Make every area important in a way
But she's just a grandma
thats probably shes that type of grandma that always saying "go back to your culture"
Yeah but areas that give so much lore like newspapers and stuff
probably tells townspeople (especially to children) a lot about old stuff
I really want a mayak or if it's destroyed we can just do the underground mayak
I agree, i'm curious how they would make her give Lore though.
I guess her actions coukd show some stuff.
keep in mind that shes 85+ years old
around neighbors age mmm
Not necesarily around
[its because shes called "the oldest person in town" and neighbor is 85]
But older, since she's the oldest citizen
which makes her 85 plus
She could be like, 100 or so for all we know
yeah
maybe some locals don't notice the neighbor at all since he's very good at hiding but yeah yall probably right I mean she looks veryy old so makes sense
I mean theo would look kinda like her but he's a fit man so
would you say hn3 is also will have some kinda distorded reality
since hn1 and hn2 had it in nikita's storylines?
That would be pretty cool
Do You mean like, metaphors, imagination, "dream" stuff?(But not really dream cuz that's too simple and weird, we're all here better than that)
yep
If so, definitely
Because, the statue stopped the storm for example
doesnt it just quentins yellow journalist stuff
Back in the day yes
And even then Nikita said he couldn't reveal too much.
Maybe he said that before he gave out its story, i don't remember.
well yeah go back to topic
So there might be much more than we know
so since isaac is removed but still important to lore
Actually there is
probably the vandals sacrifacing him is scrapped
He is the vandals goal after all
cuz of the guest killing thing?
yeah probably
no no
he is less important to story now
So micky was around raven brooks during the 80s yet it was half abandoned then in hn2 it's somehow fully inhabited?
But still part of the core
less than other npcs like jacob, janusz and other npcs
Well yes right now but eventually we will see
During the 80s? Depends sorta.
With info from other media, no.
we're focusing on someone else's story right? could be uus since we have a player model or someone elses
what my problem is jacob is kinda feels like an filler character at the moment
nikita did say in a devlog a guy with a dream
They could have figured some greater role for him
like you can say things with other npcs while you cant even tell anything about his backstory or something
Yeah, what could that dream be
Hmmmm
i dont think theres any hint about that in prototype 3, is there?
(i'm still full of NaCl over him remaining while Iris doesn't)
0 ideas
Not sure unless you pay attention on what he does in the entire prototype which I didn't do
I only stayed with the historian cuz she keeps disappearing easily
Civil rights for all blue people
I mean here's my guess
also there is this
He's weaj
Well ain't most Raven Brookians blue.
Fair point
But that's raven brooks which is now run down and a complete slum
What about greater American
he was, not anymore
America
Who jacob?
Yes
yes
Jacob
Yes
huh I didn't notice that'd be his letter
do u guys like how hilly the map is? for me from the bakery onwards is kinda too much
I wonder how the dream stuff will be like in hn3
i dont think there would be any
I hope there isn't
which is like unsuitable to gameplay
We won't really have like a dream trauma thing
Gaap being a location would be cool
Cuz we are newcomers
It is tho lol
its already in-game though
Like in hg the gas station and everything I mean
since the world isnt looping canonically
The van being there too
there can be no dreams between loops
Does guest world also count as a dream thing
I don't think there will be anything like switching in between dream world and real world stuff
Nor, overly cartoony, distorted stuff
either everything is not real or everything is full real
I think it'll just be present all throught the gameplay/story
Sorta blending in with the reality
So You have to think about what is real and what isn't, and what symbolises what
I heard somewhere that there'll be cutscenes in final game but your not just sitting back and watching your playing experiencing the scene like a fortnite event for example
I think nikita said it
since actions is how we play out I wonder if there'll be multiple endings
He said there wouldn't be cutscenes but said it wouldn't be bad to have ending/intro iirc
yep
he then changed his idea about it iirc
lemme check
so yeah there will be intro and ending, but no cutscene that cuts the gameplay
Good
Well that's good to hear
Since mayak has been mentioned in hn3
There should be a location for it even if its abandoned like the church
maybe not the underground tho
Mayak?
Yeah
What's mayak
meteorological station
Well from the prototype of it
And in hello guest
Behind the white board thing
Ik
oh well
we shouldn't forget the other Isaac
oh that's an interesting thing.
isaac sr.
isaac jr.
if you will
The other what now?
the one that disappeared
theres his missing posters around the town you know
The one we first saw in the missing poster
While I know that Nikita said they won't be bringing back too many old characters for fan service I wonder because the hat mans story was never explained?
oh yeahh
He looked more older than Isaac jr
I'm thinking of slenderman mb
we first thought it would be just asset reuse
I wonder why they're still using that one
but its not
Especially in pre alpha
since even in pre alpha they still has it
Send a picture?
also its cleary older than other posters
It's dirtier
Was it there since prototype 2?
here you go
Ty
Are both of these in the same version actually
So Isaac went missing and Isaac is now back again? (I haven't played the photos)
yes
presumably theres 2 isaac
wait wait
Oh god oh god
Wait so Isaac 1 (the one we've seen) has Isaac 2 ( missings) hat
hold on just a seconds
he may be up to smth
i dont think its same but its up to what you think
Oh come on put 2 and 2 together mate it's the same hat
It looks the exact same
It's the same shape
Just because "it's a different Isaac" can't mean it's not the same hat
they're noticeably different hats
Isaacs hat could affect trout population in Norway
iris' issac's hat is flatter, resting atop his head
poster issac's is clearly closer to a beanie
picture of iris' issac for reference
I wonder just how long ago this guy vanished before game action
isaac sr's death is probably when the people started to see the guest (which is forest dweller, aka fake guest) as a killer
they may be didnt see him as he killed him
probably see him got dragged by FD
but vandals may did see him killing isaac sr
Most likely not cuz why are 5here still missing postas
thats why they also sacrifacing other isaac and how they know FD kills
Maybee
i mean everyone knows that fd is killing or hes a kidnapper
they must have witnessed something
What does fd stand for
forest dweller
Yeah witnessed him going to the forest yeah and maybe kidnapped
isaac sr went to forest
kidnapped by forest dweller aka fake guest
someone from the town witnessed him being dragged by forest dweller
bit after vandals or an vandal saw isaac sr's death
vandals started to see it as friend while normal citizens started to see it as an enemy
Okay that made sense
Now who could have witnessed him
I wonder if we can see the whole guest ritual and how it'll work cuz the only thing we seen is guest pulling off his beak
under the beak is a very long tongue
and the guest licks issac's forehead
and eats his hair
do you think the adult isaac and kid isaac is related by blood
woah there
absolutely not
i mean are they relatives?
Even if not blood they must be related in some way surely
well probably not since we do know isaacs father
he's not even purple
which the only thing they probably have in common is that theyre both male
They're related in Brookhaven rp
"omkg you play as iris' mom in hn3"
Oh god oh god
well this also gave me an idea
since isaac is confirmed to be around ten years old this photo cant be that old
ummy yummy
its like 2021 maybe
would you say thats after something happened and town got abandoned
Iris seems around the age of 12 enough too
Well some of the books took place in 2021 iirc right
But I don't think that matters
Probably doesn't.
Nikita's take on the story is mostly seperate from everything else.
Either reset day or RB disaster csnt remember
issac turned three and everyone really hates three year olds and HAD to get out of there
yeah true.
Reset day it was
oh well then I got nothing on reset day.
maybe it was before the town got half abandoned
They look happy enough
I wonder what happened to their parents tho
Missing i assume.
And dead.
also theres more unrevealed characters
some of them probably wont be in game though
or maybe all of them
it was like an wish rather than plan
25 i remember was also a number, that one was for sure just a wish
15...
I think i heard that in the MegaM interview maybe?
this
25 would be a bit much for an abandoned town. 15 sounds better
We will get Greta the baker
Ong
well since we do know their resources is not even enough for 10 npcs with simple tasks or smth
Ravenbrooks ain't a ghost town but it's half abandoned yes
there wont be any more if you ask me
(atleast in optimization wise)
Pretty sure ghost towns can still have people and count as ghost towns.
Yeah but nikita said its not a ghost town
we already have an baker in hn3 though...
The fake Guest (enemy NPC) is the bad Guest
The real Guest is the good Guest
Slash hj
Half joke
he also lost his hair with his bakery...
wait wait
where the hell is his other hand
They forgor to draw it 💀
Loll
he got a prosthetic hand with the salary offered by Golden Apple
Golden Apple are good guys?
Prosthetic hair would've been a better choice ngl
Wait no
theres no flights between turkey and raven brooks though...
somehow, theyre not good but not bad too
atleast in hn3
from what i have understand just a greedy and opportunistic company
Yeah
that invests in a small town
Morally gray ig
And might sort of have a monopoly in the town
Wt h I said an monopoly
Beacause, I mean, if the theory that the Tasty Bakery closed because of the GA Supermarket is correct...
but he is earning more with just being an cashier in their supermarket
Yeah true
Guys I just figured out smth
