hn3-discussion

[versed ravine]

I made jacob mad (don't know what I did) and he followed me like the terminator for the entire run

Following me into everyone else's houses just to throw objects at me and miss repeatedly

[celest plank]

me too

[near hawk]

#killJacob

[celest plank]

hes just rly aggressive on default for some reason

jacob is a waste of organs at least he'd be better off as a meal for the guest

[versed ravine]

The guest never takes npcs I knock out and drop

[tacit cargo]

Atp i dont even know why they sent bob there, the town's a lost cause

[versed ravine]

He's sealing the deal

Closing the whole place down

[tacit cargo]

Damn..

[celest plank]

it feels like dodging bullets when i see those hn3 pre alpha videos on youtube 😭

genuinely trying to overcome the lag AND not be spoiled

[agile kelp]

Nikita fix crowbar damage

[summer sand]

English isn't my native language so pardon

[tacit cargo]

I meant that i feel the same way

[raven pilot]

genuinely didnt watch youtube until i beated it

[celest plank]

i still didnt beat it

i didnt even go as far as collecting 2 notes

its just unplayable with ts lag

[near hawk]

Well sucks to be you i beat it in like less than two hours.

[celest plank]

its pissing me off cause theres so much to do in pre alpha that i havent done

[celest plank]

mods ban this guy for violating rule 18

[untold grotto]

i 100%ed it in 7 hours

[raven pilot]

i think i beated it in like 3 hours

[near hawk]

Does 100% counts as beating the core path or

[untold grotto]

no like doing all content

[near hawk]

Do you have to save Janusz for example as well

Oh alright

Then i didn't 100% it

[celest plank]

mate

[raven pilot]

||can i save janusz if i give him gifts?||

[celest plank]

i need to like borrow fridge's pc then

[near hawk]

And i never will since i'm not helping Jacob over my dead body

[keen hemlock]

for a pre alpha its pretty solid

[untold grotto]

you need to give cookbook

its in post officr

[celest plank]

i hope alpha 1 will be optimized better

[keen hemlock]

also the game def needs a camera system (like in hn2) to be able to observe npc behaviour

[tacit cargo]

So thats why.... Everything is closing down, so the rent went up so high iris moved from raven brooks to pigeon town

[celest plank]

oh yeah definitely

[pulsar cradle]

I hope Nikita doesn’t close this version of hello neighbor 3 for the next update

[celest plank]

what update

[near hawk]

build

[celest plank]

its gonna be closed probably

[pulsar cradle]

But the previous hello neighbor games the pre alpha didn’t close

[tacit cargo]

Hope not, alphas always stay strong through hn

[frosty gyro]

a rc car is planned to be in the game which will hopefully allow you to do this

[celest plank]

well i dont think there can be multiple playtests

[arctic jolt]

How do people mod the alphas

I can’t figure out how to do it

[pulsar cradle]

How do they even get console commands

[past cedar]

UUU (Universal Unreal Unlocker)

[celest plank]

like ue4ss or soemthing

[near meadow]

I hope alpha 1 adds more npcs and npc interactions and randomized chaos with them

Because this aspect downgraded severely in pre alpha

[celest plank]

its just like

yeah in a game like hello neighbor 3 where interacting with npcs is quite important

it should be better than that

but atp all i want is less lag i just wanna play the game again

last time i played it properly was prototype 2

1 year ago

[untold grotto]

i didnt had any lag in medium-high

[rigid citrus]

Me too

[celest plank]

well i had

[rigid citrus]

But optimisation is kinda missing

[untold grotto]

i even played it in epic too

[bronze phoenix]

is it laggy?

[untold grotto]

it just had lag when storm started

[rigid citrus]

I have many times more FPS in a storm.

[rigid citrus]

you can just use custom preset

[bronze phoenix]

i cant wait to get a new rig

my current cannot run 50fps

AT LOW

[rigid citrus]

oh....

[polar linden]

GUYS!

[rigid citrus]

kinda sad

[polar linden]

i waited for Jacob's and Janusz's death and took their bodies

[arctic jolt]

Wrong person

[polar linden]

and dead janusz grabbed dead jacob

[arctic jolt]

[eager glade]

geometry neighbor

[arctic jolt]

Square

Amazing art

[polar linden]

and i was able to grab dead janusz who was caring dead jacob

[rigid citrus]

show us that thing!!!!!!

[celest plank]

do you see the issue

gioddamn trees

[rigid citrus]

thats playable

[celest plank]

yeah i know

[rigid citrus]

u know

[celest plank]

check the part where i look at the pile of trees

[near hawk]

It doesn't look that bad tbh

[rigid citrus]

give it io Guest

[celest plank]

it delays everything so bad bro

it was a million times worse with prototype 3 at least

i gotta be playing this while looking down or something

[polar linden]

he fell under the map

[celest plank]

i think they should be less ragdoll-y

[rigid citrus]

wha?...

[celest plank]

to make it look more human

thats offtopic but still

[polar linden]

yea i was filming footages for video

[celest plank]

mnan

[rigid citrus]

meh

[celest plank]

spoiler ts

ohhh i canot be looking at this!

[polar linden]

damn neighbor

[brave thunder]

you can unlock the console with uuu

[rigid citrus]

why ereryone friendly with crowbar?

[celest plank]

but it just looks terrible without the trees

[brave thunder]

and type
show instancedfoliage
in console to hide trees

[celest plank]

i did it iwith prototype 3 and it revealed basically everything

not as fun

[rigid citrus]

just to play?

[brave thunder]

then you gotta accept the fps

[celest plank]

Sigh.,..

[rigid citrus]

or buy a new pc

[brave thunder]

they didn't add distance culling in the tree's material

[brave thunder]

even it's really easy

[rigid citrus]

there is no optimization in game right now

[covert granite]

hey question... how do you "help" the npcs? do you give them items or smth else?

[brave thunder]

there is

just not for the trees

[rigid citrus]

what kinda?

[celest plank]

yeah thats probably the easiest option out there ever

[blissful river]

Probably because they are placeholders still.

[brave thunder]

true

[celest plank]

i am running to the store right now

[brave thunder]

but it's just one node in material editor

[rigid citrus]

[celest plank]

oh are they

i thought the trees were final

[blissful river]

😭

Still market place assets bro

[rigid citrus]

so, thats is vegetation trouble

[celest plank]

hoh didnt know

well i hope theyll be eradicated from the game at one point because right now i have unexplainable hate for them

[blissful river]

It’s fine lol. I’m jk. Yeah. Nikita confirmed new foliage will be made.

[rigid citrus]

nah

[blissful river]

Hoping we get some more tree types.

Like birches or smth

[brave thunder]

they just need to use per instance fade amount for opacity

[rigid citrus]

hope too

[celest plank]

i hope

we will get like

at least a little bit of leaves on the trees

i get that its early spring but like bro

theyre completely dead

[rigid citrus]

developers didn't change location this time, its strange.

[celest plank]

they should start to grow leaves at that point

[celest plank]

the map is final

theyll be just upgrading it from prototype 3 onwards

[agile kelp]

This is the final map

[rigid citrus]

🫡

[celest plank]

alright guys

last attempt

im removing the trees.

[rigid citrus]

oh no(

[blissful river]

Most likely won’t happen.

I like the dead trees. I just hope we get some more colors in them besides “brown”.

[rigid citrus]

too

[celest plank]

yeah thats basically what im asking for

its very brown

[rigid citrus]

thats part of an atmosphere

[celest plank]

even for a vibe that hn3 is trying to convey its kinda like too undersaturated

[thick ferry]

I really love the realistic look and the hello neighbor look combined together

[rigid citrus]

you just got laggy from trees)

[thick ferry]

(screenshot from my friend)

[blissful river]

The lighting is so good

[thick ferry]

Ikr

[restive oxide]

i saw a random tree when playing
right behind coned's house
its like Alma's height and full of green leaves

[rigid citrus]

this is mid, i got the same picture

[blissful river]

Weird

[restive oxide]

very

[celest plank]

it rly cool that they combined every hn artstyle to some degree

its cartoony but also similar to hn1 alphas

[blissful river]

Even like evergreens might look good (I know the game technically has some already but not enough) as those keep their leaves during winter.

[celest plank]

and sort of realistic ifu wanna call it that

[celest plank]

i really liked the tone of hello guest

and hn2 alphas

like

[blissful river]

Same.

[celest plank]

green swamp gross stuff

the point im trying to make is that it still was colorful and interesting

hn3 is just plain brown

[near hawk]

Okay my friend revealed the shocking news that he hasn't finished the game either

[eager glade]

someone copy me

who copy

[near hawk]

I will sacrifice him to the guest

[celest plank]

how do i use uuu again

[near hawk]

someone copy me

who copy

[celest plank]

where do i extract it at

[restive oxide]

anywhere

doesnt matter

[celest plank]

ts is karvilax type of grammar

[eager glade]

dont talk

[near hawk]

dont talk

[celest plank]

what? 😭

[eager glade]

yes

pls no copy

[near hawk]

yes

[eager glade]

stop

[near hawk]

pls no copy

[celest plank]

karvilax

[near hawk]

okay im out

[eager glade]

okay im out

[celest plank]

is "Karvilax" illegal in this server

[eager glade]

u make me anger

[celest plank]

to clrarify i said "Karvilax"

[near hawk]

Bro you just copied me!

[celest plank]

so uhj

is extracting it to downloads a good idea

[restive oxide]

i keep it there

[past cave]

hey nikita.
can u make the mayak biblically accurately bigger?

[restive oxide]

just anywhere you can easily access it
you open the exe anytime you want to use it

[rigid citrus]

mayak?

[past cave]

uhh uhh...

the big eyeball thing

[rigid citrus]

the weather station?

[past cave]

yeah yeah

mb.

[rigid citrus]

да я прикалываюсь

[peak solar]

I'm hearing people say that apparently the AI has navigation issues

anyone else experiencing this?

[shell oyster]

i do

[deft summit]

wait so he doesn't drag you when you're at the park..?

[graceful jay]

guys

[graceful jay]

do somebody know about this

[agile kelp]

☹️

[graceful jay]

so this is why he is crying

i mean janusz

[near hawk]

And why ||he kills himself||

[floral creek]

there is more than one way to get into golden apple park

[graceful jay]

wait is he exploding his house?

[near hawk]

Yeah

[graceful jay]

wow i didnt knew that. Its making the story even more sad

[agile kelp]

Yeah he makes a gas leak I think

Janusz story is definitely a big cool part of pre alpha, well done

[graceful jay]

yep

[blissful river]

I agree

[graceful jay]

ohhh..

i feel so bad for him

[unborn fox]

Someone fill me on jansuz

[agile kelp]

Janusz wife, Omelia, is dead which is the reason why he is crying

You can find his wife’s cook book in the post office, and when you give it to him he goes to the grave and cries

If you DONT give the cookbook to him then || he sets a gas leak in the bakery and kills himself ||

[graceful jay]

his story is so sad omg 😭

[agile kelp]

Wait so I just realized

People probably new this but this means that his wife died very recently

From guest

Like the day before possibly

[unborn fox]

Oh that's depressing

[graceful jay]

i also like pre-alpha bc of this small secrets that tell us some story

[agile kelp]

I like pre alpha except I think there’s TOO MUCH direction on what to do

I’d prefer just the only objective the game tells you being the four locations you need to investigate

And then go blind from there

Too much info given makes it kinda too easy

More rewarding when you complete stuff more blind

[unborn fox]

Isn't the point of the game to make the choices of your objective that'll effect you later? Why do we need the guides on what to do.

[lavish ravine]

Poor man 😔

[tacit cargo]

they removed isaac and iris, it makes the map feel so empty, id be satisfied if they brought them in plus 1 or 2 new character(s)

[restive oxide]

only for now
they just couldn't fit iris into the story yet
i forgot if nikita said why they removed isaac

[near hawk]

Lack of resources is the reason.

[warm crane]

hey, wouldn't it be possible that it was pre-alpha for hello neighbor 3 prototype and so it could also be downloaded on Mac (Apple)

[solid island]

does anyone know what this does/means???

[dense fractal]

whats happening heere

[graceful jay]

what

[near hawk]

The Guest does that one animation when he sees those blocks

Place of reflection it's called

[dense fractal]

what is the block

[near hawk]

Idk

[solid island]

interesting

[near hawk]

Maybe the blocks are placeholders and actually are supposed to be smth to remind him of something

Probably not.
Idk what it can mean.

[dense fractal]

maybe the guest is nicky and its his ball from act 1 in hn1 😱 (joke)

[near meadow]

@untold grotto The Guest will sometimes come to these placeholder cubes spread around the town called PlaceOfReflection and will do an animation thats also called PlaceOfReflection

what do you think this means?

[near meadow]

So is that the reason why when I glitched him into the neighborhood he started doing that animation behind the neighbors abandoned house?

[dense fractal]

maybe hes reflecting on his actions after the neighbor called him naughty and hit him with shovel

fr fr

[nimble walrus]

If I am not mistaken, isaac model was finished, it's just they didn't have enough time to put Isaac in the pre-alpha, just like the RC Car and some other stuff

[near hawk]

Oh the cubes are called that too? That's interesting

[near meadow]

Maybe its places that aaron used to be?

[near hawk]

I only knew of the animation being called that way

[sleek moat]

i think franklin is the guest

and maybe those places give him memories

[nimble walrus]

Ngl would be cool if graveyard had easter egg of Diane.

[sleek moat]

e

ye

[thorn latch]

wheres the sphere

the radar sphere

for the weather

[tough depot]

yo why does my game crash within 3 seconds of my game being running

[vestal trellis]

#announcements

[tough depot]

already tried that

[vestal trellis]

did you delete the hello neighbor folder and try too reinstall it???

[vestal trellis]

then idk then

[restive oxide]

yea his model is finished i just didn't know why they didn't put him in
not having enough time makes sense

[untold grotto]

franklin does not exists in hn3

[thorn latch]

someone help me

wheres the radar sphere?

plz

Ive been lost for like 30 minutes

[agile kelp]

The eye

At mayak

[nimble walrus]

Ngl rly hope that they do bring Iris back. At least as a person that guards Isaac whenever Isaac decides to go outside.

[thorn latch]

wheeres mayak

[eager glade]

behind ferris wheel

[restive oxide]

they probably will
nikita they couldn't fit her into the story right now

[floral creek]

wh wgx

[gentle pebble]

GAAP

[tacit cargo]

I said it before but it would be best for the friendship meter stayed, right now, until you do a friendship quest they are all assholes

[lunar trail]

look its the animation i just exported

made a great gif tbh

im favoriting that

[lofty junco]

i love that he always carries his shovel with him

[agile kelp]

Behind the Ferris wheel through the ice scream stand

And up the path

[rugged garden]

мужики как вылядит боб ?

[pine heron]

Is there Isaac in this build?

[eager glade]

nope

[near hawk]

Nice pfp you got there

[deft summit]

I don't think either Isaac or Iris are here

[pine heron]

lol. Thx.

[near hawk]

Isaac will return but for Iris it's unknown

[deft summit]

wait so she could get removed..? that's crazy if so

[pine heron]

Nikita did say Jacob and Iris were just temporary characters when they were making RBO so who knows…

[deft summit]

AND Jacob..?

[near hawk]

Jacob no

[deft summit]

I know he's ingame but like

could get removed

[near hawk]

Jacob's here to stay

[deft summit]

is what I said

[deft summit]

alright so it's just Iris then

[near hawk]

There was no statements he'd get removed

Yep

[deft summit]

Idk that's still a little crazy still considering how much they updated her model

what do I know though

[near hawk]

If She does return she would have a different role narratively and look differently

Here.

[near meadow]

People are confused about alot of things of this build

but the WHOLE point of this build was to explore how to present the main story and the objective system

not the npc or butterfly effects yet

thats gonna probably be in the next build where it focuses more on npc interactions and messing around in a chaotic work

[unique rover]

ngl the npcs are bad now

they seem to hate me for no reason

[near meadow]

Yeah ik

But for now they weren't the focus of the build

I do like how explosions happen and car crashes

I want the next build to focus on HOW The environment will react to the chaos

them running around

maybe vandals start setting things on fire

[unique rover]

alright I just ||gave the book to Janusz|| so maybe he won't hate me anymore

[near meadow]

If you explode something

[high brook]

wasnt this prototype 3 focus?

[unique rover]

the bakery got destroyed when I was in the cinema and believe me I was quite confused trying to figure out what happened to it

[near meadow]

Yeah

kinda

But tbh that wasn't THAT good either

it was fun

atleeast

[high brook]

tbh the p2 ai was good

[unique rover]

but it's nice that different parts of the enviroment interact with eachother

[near meadow]

But I like that here, npcs actually START something and have something happen around the environment. LIke this time they interact with it. When the building explodes the entire place is in smoke, etc, jacob crashes into power thing, lights shut down.

[high brook]

also for some reason i have like 200+ screenshots of hn3

[near meadow]

So when more npcs arrive, I want stuff like this to happen while having npcs act random, plus them reacting to all the smoke and stuff.

Like I said, the vandals can take this as a signal and just start chaos around the map randomly

[untold grotto]

was not expecting seeing you talking here

[unique rover]

I'm a man of suprises

[celest plank]

Me Too

for i am officially back from the brutal punishment

[unique rover]

what punishment?

I love how terrifying the Guest sounds

kind of like the zombies in Half Life 2

[delicate sigil]

||How do you avoid the guest in the amusement park? I cannot seem to progress anymore||

[past cedar]

you have to use the flashlight or stay in the light

I complete it by just running through it

[delicate sigil]

it didnt work.

:(

I pointed a turned on flashlight right at em he stopped but eventually just ran at me anyway

this is so frustrating... :(

I hate having to do everything all over again every time

[blissful river]

Hold the light down and it shoots a brighter light, this is easier to use to keep him away.

[delicate sigil]

I will try that next time, thank you

[civic patio]

that or just run

[delicate sigil]

I just think its frustrating as hell, ||I'm going trough trial and error right now, and I can't learn from my mistakes well, because every time I fail, I literally have to go get the lever again, go get the gondola lever again, go to the amusement park, all that just to try again. I really hope this gets changed in future builds.||

[low gate]

you dont have to get the lever

[delicate sigil]

||Could you tell me how I get to the museum without it? I've been trying to avoid spoilers but I'd like to know this if you could tell me, thanks!||

[low gate]

||Help Jacob. He is missing a tape of an episode hes missing of his favourite show, it is in the cinema around the basement. After you give it to him he will fix the lights to the mueseum making it safe.||

[delicate sigil]

||Oh wow, that's interesting, thank you very much for informing me!||

[low gate]

||Plus he doent die then lol. Also if you are struggling with the Guest you can literally just feed him a banana and youre good like the whole game also if you help the historian (and make a safe path the raven brooks for her) she can set fireworks (this seems to bug a ton for me its hard to get her doing it)||

[unreal wigeon]

OH HELL NAW

[trim reef]

why do boxes break so fast?

[reef widget]

guys how do I genuinely get to the weather report room before I smash my setup like im literally so lost

[chrome sun]

They cardboard

Anything non metal are easier to break

[unreal wigeon]

OH HELL NAW

weres the neighbor

[modern fog]

Mod idea by someone

lol

[sharp pond]

hey guys can u guys send like a copy of the pre alpha? Mines is really broken bc of old mods and I think im missing a bunch of files

and I can’t fix it

[warped kestrel]

I hope Hello Neighbor 3 will connect to the older games' story, otherwise, it will not make any sense

[loud canyon]

its a sequel to act 3 of HN1

30 yrs later

[modern fog]

[green storm]

Well, I finally pass the pre-alpha and I've impressed about the good optimization of the game, it's way better than prototype 3

the task menu it's a good adding but I think it's could be better if it would be featured as a notebook to doesn't break the inmersion

I really liked to see the Weather Station in the game as years to see Mayak only in the books, comics and the serie

however, there are two things that I'd like to expect at future previews:

1- A slower time-running to explore the town
2- A little bit less of foliage in the map

I really like how this is going up, I hope guys you keep it forward! ^^

[green storm]

I think Hello Neighbor will retcon some things of the franchise

I don't know if HN2 is still canon at all or just a few things of the game

[covert kestrel]

WHAT

i was right???????

fake guest was real?????????

[oblique parcel]

it just means the legend and the forest dweller

i think

[sleek moat]

the ledgend and what

what does fd mean

oh

[deft summit]

the symbol of Raven Brooks (the mascot)

and then the Forest Dweller

calling it a legend may confuse some people

[covert kestrel]

dont they worship the guest though?

[green storm]

are the Forest Dweller and The Guest the same entity??

[blissful zinc]

i think all it means is

there is no real guest

the one in HN3 is someone obsessed with it

[deft summit]

the symbol of the people

aka the mascot depictions of the Guest

[compact zephyr]

Anyone else lowk wish HN3 looked more connected to the other 2

Doesn’t seem like any lore will be explained

I hope I’m wrong tho

[covert kestrel]

this is only the pre alpha still

[compact zephyr]

True

[lucid willow]

When will the pre-alpha be?

[desert bear]

pre alpha is growing on me

its fun to speedrun

i think the map should have less trees

i like the openness of prototype 2 but they can balance it

[desert bear]

nah i think it fits

[kindred snow]

Why I crashing when I launch hn3🫩 And Btw I do have enough system requirements to play

[inner moth]

you just answered your own question there

[kindred snow]

?? The game crashes because I have enough system requirements to play?

[inner moth]

oh

oh mb

[kindred snow]

Its fine

[inner moth]

uum

wasnt there a question more random than that one?

[kindred snow]

Bro. I didnt even play Playtest 3 yet

Well I did play but barely

[compact slate]

hello guys, i came back from hospital and pre alpha came out, is it better than playtest 3?

[trim trout]

Yes and I hope you feel better

[compact slate]

thank u

[barren saddle]

I honestly hope HN3 has good exploration design, good AI, a good reputation/relationship system with NPCs, good story, and so on. I want them to strive from the platforming aspects that give you shortcuts since that kind of ruins the point of exploring, the aesthetic and vibe that HN3 is trying to show or convey to the player. I know it’s just the Pre-Alpha, but I honestly wasn’t impressed with it from what I saw. Still, I hope the best for Nikita and HN3. I know he worked hard on this one. On a positive note, the visuals and animations were an impressive look. Also had some funny and nice moments with NPCs too.

[muted cave]

Guys, what do y'all think about tasks system addition?

[near hawk]

Lowkey Nikita was cooking when he wanted the session to be 15-20 minutes

[thorn latch]

can somene help plz
im at the neighbors place
Ive been looking literally everwhere
i cant find report 13 or whatever
the room

[last lotus]

You guys should add third person as an option and maybe some moddability. This game could be genuinely generational with mod capabilities

[last lotus]

Love it, makes the game SO much more enjoyable

A problem many had with previous games is there was basically no instructions or even hints and the ones there were honestly vague

Now you know WHAT to do but HOW you do it is entirely up to you and the game

Also you guys should definitely add some more concepts and features from Hello Guest

[last lotus]

Also Beatrice as the enemy of the Golden Apple park would be neat

[worldly thunder]

i like the whole uneasy feeling to this one

the world around you is dark and gloomy i love this new look to it

THATS why i like it so much the models and colors remind me of psychonots

[bronze phoenix]

i think the game is moving in a pretty mid direction if they dont exucute well

cause the pre alpha dosent really feel a sandbox game and just a story

im pretty scared for this game tbh

sure its easy but it dosent have the Spark that the Prototypes had

[muted cave]

Idk, pre-alpha's town feels empty (I'm talking about people)

[muted cave]

I don't really like it (tasks only, notes are great) cuz it kinda removes the reason to explore. I agree that Prototype 3 had small amount of hints, but tasks, it's kinda too much, and the game itself is designed for multiple sessions, so I think that notes will be enough.

[gentle carbon]

do you think the notes being logged would work? like taping them into a notebook or something

[untold grotto]

i think like "go to cinema" would be better than "go to cinema to the boiler room"

[last lotus]

This!

[muted cave]

Agree

Oh, also

[last lotus]

Vague instructions like Morrowind would work

[muted cave]

Why obstacles are so durable?

Like

I watched some walkthroughs

And people had hard times beaking that security barriers

[last lotus]

Also I kinda don't like the time limit, or at least the fact that the cart switch doesn't save, having to do the whole song and dance to get the switch every time you want to explore the theme park or weather station is REALLY annoying

[untold grotto]

its a on purpose thing

the game wants to you to find another way to get in there

instead of just breaking the door

[muted cave]

oh, if it's so, that's great

[muted cave]

Yeah (about cart switch)

But what about time limit, I think it's fine

[untold grotto]

i think its so long

you no longer feel time pressure in the game

30 mins is pretty long for a session

i think 15 mins would be better for me

[muted cave]

Yeah, because of multiple sessions

[last lotus]

I've honestly never liked time limits in single player games, even back in Fallout 1

[untold grotto]

well thats may be because pre alpha was intended to be like having 15-20 minutes sessions

[muted cave]

Idk, imo it makes game more interesting

Also, I forgot

How much time did we had before storm kills us?
(in prototype 3)

[gentle carbon]

I don't really like judging anything until things are polished, cause I find the current state of the game unenjoyable, so that kinda affects my views on most things like the looping

[thin tundra]

Same but the pre-alpha did not dissapoint me.

[manic lichen]

It was AMAZING

only real problem I had is that, that one of npcs just would do that throw you away from them thing or hey maybe thats normal

[muted cave]

Also, there's problem with ai

[thin tundra]

Tbh the guest NEEDS to be a bit nerfed. you get one shot like you did from the forest dweller of Prototype 1-2.

[muted cave]

Yes

[manic lichen]

it did seem a little to easy to get into the apartment room though,

[thin tundra]

They kinda made the crowbar too nerfed tbh and the tape is much worse now in terms of durability.

[manic lichen]

wait crowbar?

[thin tundra]

Yeah

[manic lichen]

I just gave the door a bunch of chairs Violently

[muted cave]

I saw the walkthrough of a blogger (Lex) and he was at the second floor of supermarket, Janusz walked right near him, and didn't even noticed him.

[muted cave]

Also yes

[manic lichen]

...

[thin tundra]

My bad... for spamming.

[muted cave]

plus, in some cases Jacob chases player even when player not on his property

[muted cave]

Most of players did

[manic lichen]

lol

[polar linden]

yea watch him too, btw same thing happened twice with signed and coned

[thin tundra]

Yeah and Janusz chased me all the way to the cable car, ut it is an pre-alpha so yeah.

[muted cave]

Did you saw them??

[polar linden]

yes all characters

[manic lichen]

Also between Hn2 and 3 its been like 6 years

[muted cave]

Cuz I didn't (I'm not finished watching his walkthrough)

[muted cave]

Idk

[muted cave]

In the previous walkthrough I saw, there was only Janusz, Jacob, Historian, Covered, Guest, Neighbor

[thin tundra]

Yeah.....

[manic lichen]

Oh something weird I found (they just didnt get finished with it I guess) we still can see are right arm while holding things

[muted cave]

I didn't even saw Isaac

[polar linden]

here

Signed - cinematograph
Covered - cable car
Coned - old jacob houes (by the small bridge near cemetery)
Janusz - bakery and supermarket
Jacob - gas station (his house)
Historian - museum
Neighbor - weather starion mayak
Guest - the rest dark teritory

[muted cave]

That too

[untold grotto]

isaac is not in the game

[polar linden]

he and Iris (and also RC car) was removed and probably will return later

[untold grotto]

isaac and rc definietly will

iris is to be decided

[polar linden]

he can't be without sister

she's canonicly needed

[muted cave]

Yes

[manic lichen]

also anyone else just go out of bounds just because right when they started?

[untold grotto]

no?

[muted cave]

YES

[polar linden]

she is his older sister and he is just a kid (Nikita said he's 10) and how can he be without her?

[thin tundra]

Well kind of, after som time i went on the train tracks and then i walked into a mountian before then falling out of the map.

[near hawk]

If Nikita removed her then likely she's not that needed

[untold grotto]

as if he cant be living with another npc oh my god bro

[near hawk]

If the story can be told without her

[polar linden]

he removed her, isaac and rc car ONLY for now he said it's for faster release of pre-alpha

THEY ARE NOT removed completely from the game

[manic lichen]

I just glitched over the fence

[polar linden]

even their house and photo remained

[manic lichen]

well more of into the fence..

[polar linden]

Nikita typing...

[thin tundra]

Yeah

[near hawk]

Well Iris could be removed definitively

[muted cave]

And that’s not up for debate.

[near hawk]

There's no conformation for Iris returning

[thin tundra]

Yeah i mean whe are just in a pre-alpha so.

[polar linden]

damn i just said few messages why she can't be

[near hawk]

Yes it is there's other npcs Isaac can be around.

[polar linden]

she's Isaac's older sister

[untold grotto]

as if the story cant change

[manic lichen]

and I just found out that if you fall you well get nocked out.

[polar linden]

she could be missing in later version and Jacob could take care of her younger brother

[near hawk]

And it's not like there aren't other npcs Isaac can hang around with.
Besides we don't even really know Isaac's story as of now maybe him being Alone is what they want.

[bronze phoenix]

guys the game used to be in a good direction but i dont feel that now

[untold grotto]

iris is scrapped from the game at the moment, not just from the build

[bronze phoenix]

i dont know if i should be scared

[muted cave]

I hope that everything will be fine

[polar linden]

you can be right too, i just think Isaac relationship with Iris need to remain further in development

[random shell]

No, why

[bronze phoenix]

the game used to be interesting now its just a story and not really a experance

the story is good

but idk what to feel bout it

lets hope final game is good

[untold grotto]

because the gameplay and story does not need her

[polar linden]

as i said here idea - iris could be missing when Alma arrives in Raven Brooks and jacob could take care of his girlfriend (or who Iris was to him) little brother

[bronze phoenix]

guyus

what are ur guys pros and cons of the pre alpha

for me the story is good but its repetive

u cant tell a good story if the game repeats mechanics

[near hawk]

I liked Iris too people but if she's not needed as of now then she ain't needed.

[untold grotto]

iris was local problem solver and seemingly was the one who revived festival because of misfortunes happening in the town, but the whole point of the historian is also reviving the festival, so there would be 2 character with very similar roles

[muted cave]

And one of the objectives would be to save her

[bronze phoenix]

maybe iris could be a warner when the storm comes

thats what i think

but i respect the desision to

scrap her for now

[random shell]

The historian is OP in the game if she catches you, she throws you out the window and you have to restart

[manic lichen]

Also I HATE that stupid bird bro it just camps the forest and just randomly goes HRRR

[muted cave]

Yes (again)

[muted cave]

Guest is op

[bronze phoenix]

its not about her its about the location

[near hawk]

No one is more annoying than Jacob though

[manic lichen]

oh thats his name

[bronze phoenix]

tbh he dident bother me

[manic lichen]

wait where did you guys find their names?

[bronze phoenix]

for some reason there is a bug

[untold grotto]

the game itself tells you

[bronze phoenix]

#work-in-progress

[manic lichen]

huh guess I ignored it in game

[near hawk]

Fair, he keeps attacking me.
I know it kinda makes sense storywise but i think there's too many agressive people

[muted cave]

Dev logs

[bronze phoenix]

there is a gltich where if go behind the table he just dosent care

in the garage room

[near hawk]

(makes sense storywise because we are a golden Apple employee and we all know what Bob did)

[severe merlin]

We discussed it here before, so. I’ll to explain it in a nutshell. Session limit here is not to make player’s life miserable. It’s part of the world structure and gameplay.
First of all gameplay. It’s based around learning how things work by being able to relive the same events but with a previous experience. That’s why main character of the Groundhog Day, by the middle of the film could tell story about every person the cafe or steal money with a perfect timing. If every day was different (like normal life), he couldn’t pull off stuff he did. In HN3 it’s the same. Otherwise players will be just reloading their early safe and got to manage it by themselves.
Secondly - world permanence. If you break everything, some characters disappear or else unfolded certain way (since there are no restrictions), world will be ruined. And you STILL got to reload old save if you had one? What if it was multiple hour of changing things? You got to lose it all if you load much older save. Like Janusz accidentally blew up bakery. Now you stuck without bakery and Janusz until you load other save and lose your progress.
Third - NPC behavior. We targeting NPC behavior to be complex and also unique. Characters here not just to pretend they do things. Idea is that they progress on their own through the day. If time was unlimited character then got to have ONLY simple endless meaningless repeatable tasks, otherwise they somehow got to generate unique stories on its own, which is close to impossible. Things like preparing to the festival and sacrifice Isaac is something that we as developers tell NPC to achieve. It’s not something they come up with in their own. So if time is limitless, characters ether got to create storylines on their own or just do simple things that lead nowhere in the grand scheme of things.
But our goal is not just random actions, but stories and experiences.
Hopefully it’s understandable. Feel free to ask questions!

[muted cave]

Third is my favorite though

[manic lichen]

Jumpscared by text

[last lotus]

Ohhhhh when you put it that way it doesn't seem too bad, kinda reminds me of Dark Souls in a way

[untold grotto]

and jacob is seemingly agressive to other citizens too

he made these lawnmowers

[bronze phoenix]

tbh the game is losing the butterfly effect for some reason u get to start the day and withen 10 minute u beat the game unlike last protos

[manic lichen]

I always wonder who the heck allowed this town to acually be built

[untold grotto]

and the citizens cant decide if it is protecting or terrorizing the town

[bronze phoenix]

hes like the enginner of the town?

[near hawk]

I think that pre alpha just didn't really focus on butterfly effect that much tbf

[untold grotto]

tech guy

[bronze phoenix]

he used to be a gas station worker

is that scraped?

[last lotus]

Btw if I had to ask for at least one more thing then it's finally adding Nicky's house

[untold grotto]

he is still gas station worker

but he is tech guy

personality wise

[random shell]

Probably because it’s an early build, but I like the new objective key thing

[near hawk]

Genuinely i feel like Nikita was cooking with the 15-20 Minutes loop idea.

[bronze phoenix]

yeah but he dosent really go there he focus alot on his car

[muted cave]

Tech guy and hikikamori lol

[bronze phoenix]

its losing that feeling

and im really scared

[untold grotto]

his real job is car mechanic i think

[near hawk]

I don't really mind 30 mins but 15-20 would have been cool to play ngl

[bronze phoenix]

for the game if it keeps losing it

[severe merlin]

To be able to beat it in 10 minutes you got to play it for a few hours. That’s the gameplay.

[muted cave]

Yeah

[untold grotto]

how you guys decided sessions being 30 minutes was the "best"

i personally would prefer shorter sessions

[muted cave]

I actually like the concept with time limit

[untold grotto]

you don't feel the time pressure like in older builds

[bronze phoenix]

also in the devlog u guys are thinking about adding acts in this picure

idk if im wrong

or there is gonna be acts

[manic lichen]

Also (still new) do stuff like doors and other objects just loose health over time without any interference?

[untold grotto]

pretty sure acts or chapters wouldnt work with concept of the game

[bronze phoenix]

what i predict is that hotel is act 1 and 4 houses is act 2 and the musem is act 3 and the weather station is act 4

[muted cave]

OH I NEARLY FORGOT

[bronze phoenix]

look at the picure tho they are thinking about it

[untold grotto]

i think its just something else

[random shell]

I hope they keep the objective thing

[muted cave]

Why residents can walk through the doors even if they're closed

[untold grotto]

because i believe nikita have said there wont be any acts or something

[manic lichen]

yea true

[severe merlin]

Acts are already in the game, but it’s more of a logical structure. Game doesn’t announce beginning of the act.

[bronze phoenix]

plans change sometimes

[near hawk]

I don't think Nikita wants to make it feel pressing tbf.
I think he wants it to feel like part of the gameplay more, like it helps you finish gameplay and is part of the experience like butterfly effect for example.
Like of the reasons Nikita just stated for time loop he didn't add "it increase stakes" or smth.

[manic lichen]

I really liked announcment acts

[bronze phoenix]

Really? so does that mean you wont add a act system to the game but rather it starts and ends quietly?

[severe merlin]

Yes. Just like films. Every film has acts, but film rarely tells you when act end or begun.

[bronze phoenix]

thats it though in pre alpha if u lose u can just start and go to the last checkpoint

[bronze phoenix]

thats really great for this game

[random shell]

I’m sure it’s easy to tell

[bronze phoenix]

so what i think is that Act 1: is the hotel act:2 the 4 buildings act 3: the Museum and act finale: the weather station

[thin tundra]

Good that Hello Neighbor added objectives because it was one of the things whe needed.

[random shell]

Yes 🙌

[muted cave]

That makes sense

[last lotus]

Are there any plans to implement cut locations and characters from HN2/Hello Guest?

[near hawk]

I just hope they will get a bit less specific in the future

[thin tundra]

I guess.

[random shell]

I liked it. It helped you understand what was going on.

[near hawk]

Yeah it was cool

[bronze phoenix]

or maybe they add in game saves where each new save deletes all Objectives and notes u learned

[near hawk]

Keeping them in between sessions was also nice

[bronze phoenix]

thats a good idea at least to me

[thin tundra]

Yeah it,s nice not needing a guide this time to beat the game.

[bronze phoenix]

i still watched one

cause im braindead

[random shell]

Oof

[bronze phoenix]

when solving puzzles

[thin tundra]

Well i also did so i guess where equal?

[untold grotto]

well i think the biggest downgrade of pre alpha was amount of cutted content

[bronze phoenix]

nikita will u make the sessions longer in time

[random shell]

The hardest part in my opinion was the historian

[bronze phoenix]

saving issac was prob the best part of P3

[polar linden]

no way Janusz blew up bakery accidetally, he is walking to nearest breaker(hammer, crowbar or saw) and start hiting his kiln mising his dead wife

[bronze phoenix]

i know a way

[near hawk]

Prototype 3, maybe

[untold grotto]

the files also says it like a word i cant say in here

[polar linden]

?

[bronze phoenix]

thats how im brain dead bruh

[near hawk]

Suici- i assume

[untold grotto]

yep

[bronze phoenix]

get ready for a nikita jumpscare text

[polar linden]

oh ok

[thin tundra]

Wait Janusz blew up the bakery? my dumbahh brain thought it was the storm destroying it.

[severe merlin]

Problem with guides for HN3 that there are TONS, like TONS of solutions for every situation. And one person decides to break one door with 2 crowbars and then everyone repeats this ineffective action and spread it. And then instead of actually playing (exploring is the main part), people just repeat these actions, while there are many more quicker and enjoyable ways to get around. I wonder if we’ll be able to shift this paradigm.
Please, explore on your own, it’s more fun this way. Exploration IS the game, not collecting the notes. Journey is the goal, people. Otherwise you live someone else’s journey and that’s no fun.

[thin tundra]

True. but i really just watched a guide to really get into their perspective like what they think of the game.

[untold grotto]

he killed himself because ||his wife Omelia died and his business got shut down by bob||

[polar linden]

i explred whole game myself and then helped other people with what i found like what's with janusz and jacob

[random shell]

We won’t need one since there is an objective board

[bronze phoenix]

this info would be really great if i wasent bad at solving puzzles

[near hawk]

Now let all the people who praised AS for having blood or whatever see HN3

[thin tundra]

damn......

[random shell]

Omg who did that?

[near hawk]

It's unknown how ||Omelia died||

[polar linden]

no without his ||wife|| he couldnt handle business my himself and did what he did, if we give him her book, he'll read whats on the other side and feel better

[severe merlin]

There are no puzzles. You just explore and it will reveal itself to you. Don’t try to rush it, just explore. I promise it’s more fun this way.

[near hawk]

However ||she is buried|| so

[thin tundra]

Maybe that,s why he was crying in the start.

[bronze phoenix]

im still dident beat the game so ill follow the advice RN

[signal geyser]

Where is Isaac?:( my boy

[ember verge]

honestly not playing with guides really adds onto the experience of the game, I didn't know that you could just fix the museum lights yourself (🤦) or lower the bridge from the town-side so every time I went through the trouble of getting Jacob the tape and it was kinda fun honestly, eventually figuring out all the ways

was mindblown when I realized you can use the ladder to get over the barrier guarding the cable car lever display case

[near hawk]

Wasn't his supermarket still rated an A? So i think he was able to Handle the bussinesses Bob just shut it down because of evil

[ember verge]

he and iris are temporarily removed

[random shell]

My question is there gonna be a hotel worker

[polar linden]

i know it's lore question. but, why Omelia's book is in the post office, she oredered custom book with all her husband's resepies and when it finally arrived in reven brooks she was already dead?

[near hawk]

Idk why it's so hard to Hammer the point that exploring is what HN3 is about

[polar linden]

nah

[ember verge]

I think she made it herself, maybe she was just away and sent it by mail

[severe merlin]

And if you stumble upon something tedious or really challenging, remember there is usually other way to make it easier and faster and more interesting. There is always other way.

[ember verge]

didn't it lower to G at some point

[polar linden]

Isaac, Iris and RC car was removed from pre-alpha for it's faster release and hopefully will return later

[near hawk]

Wasn't something else at G?

[thin tundra]

Every way is the right one......

[ember verge]

I might be misremembering and that could be the gas station

[bronze phoenix]

i really liked the devlog btw it looked like you guys are trying to solve a really big problem which of cource it is

[signal geyser]

I want Isaac back>:(

[random shell]

I hope Iris makes a grand return

[near hawk]

There was something at F too iirc

[polar linden]

me too

[severe merlin]

I usually don’t comment on stories, but will on this one a bit.
Yes it’s a custom book that stuck in the post office for many years. That’s all I will say.

[polar linden]

thanks!

[ember verge]

aw

no wonder he's so sad

[ember verge]

I hope we'll get more of Bob in the future I find his quirk with the many exclamation points cute

[random shell]

Was he in any past hello neighbor lore?

[near hawk]

Apparently Bob means like famous or smth similar so the exclamation points kinda give that vibe

[ember verge]

I wouldn't really say he's evil either since Golden Apple Corp would probably just send somebody else to close all the spaces around

[ember verge]

not really

[untold grotto]

its because janusz is not GA employee

[near hawk]

Nope.
There was a german detective in books Nicknamed Bob but other than that nope(different bob)

[polar linden]

he's just small worker but with important report 13

[ember verge]

ehh I doubt that, I mean paired with the last name?

"popular newbie?" I guess?

it's just kinda a simple first name I think

[untold grotto]

like he took over the building after GA left

[thin tundra]

Whe need more Bob.

[untold grotto]

it means like a newcomer with bright fame

or something

[ember verge]

he was really popular with the townsfolk to the point he got disappeared and his progress to the weather station was fully reset 😭

[untold grotto]

also just realized neighbor was also attacking other npcs

[polar linden]

tried to make alma using iris

just another color for ears and little dot on nose and only hair left

[untold grotto]

but i think there was that one note that said packaged arrived recently

[polar linden]

how long it's been there

it's no more recently ig

[low gate]

it looks quite old doesnt it

mustve dug it up maybe

[untold grotto]

i mean then why janusz is not taking the package for years

[random shell]

Is there an explanation yet why were blue, Is it a part of like the game aesthetic?

[low gate]

i gave him the note wondering if hed go pick the parcel up and he didnt

[ember verge]

where's coned house

[polar linden]

maybe he wasn't is store for long times or haven't got this message od didn't think it was smth important

[ember verge]

nvm found it

[low gate]

What i meant is like he dug it up from the bakery or maybe in the supermarket office from like moving boxes or shoved in a shelf and he only just found it

Perhaps ordered by his wife

i dunno

[near hawk]

Game aesthethic

[low gate]

i like that they gave neib more natural skin colour (yes i know its a little green) i think it would look so weird if he had a more colourful one like the others

i think it adds that his skin colour is more like a sickly weathered green

[random shell]

I was just confused for a while if it was a placeholder model or if it was a part of the game aesthetics, but it sounds like it’s more about the game aesthetic

[low gate]

The character designs are really good

I think the designs of them really tie in to their character also

[random shell]

I just realized this but Alma is a nepo baby

[near hawk]

No?

Oh yeah

I was thinking of another definition

She is

[random shell]

I guess it depends on the context, but her father is in a high position and she’s the vice president. I don’t know.

[near hawk]

I feel like the character colours have to be somehow confirmably just an artistic choice within the game or something.

Since people keep asking about them like every other day on here

[low gate]

Janusz is one of my favourites he's got old dirty bakery uniform hes probably worn forever and it doesnt even fit him (probably cos hes really let himself go) you can sort of see how tight they are on him like hes still trapped by his past, then you have a bright clean golden apple apron covering it and i think that shows how the golden apple has put its mask over the town and shows how Janusz has just conformed to it even though he doesnt want to.

[last lotus]

I love how the game kinda blends the art styles of 2 and and early HN1

[random shell]

That’s a good comparison

[low gate]

I still cant see any similarities to the early HN1 gonna be honest

[random shell]

Maybe before they did the cartoony graphic

In the first game

[near hawk]

Early HN1 as in pre alpha and Alpha 1?

[last lotus]

Yeah that

[near hawk]

If so yeah i can't see much similarity

[low gate]

I know but they arent similar its just that both styles are the more "realistic" of the franchise

Otherwise they dont share any other traits

[near hawk]

That's true

But it's in different ways

Very

[random shell]

I know it’s not supposed to be a horror game, but I hope it has some horror elements still in

[near hawk]

I mean the dweller kind of is one

[low gate]

Its got darker elements i dont know if its a horror yet

dont think it qualifies

[near hawk]

They don't mean the game to be horror, just to have horror elements

[random shell]

True, he’s not nice

[near hawk]

As in a few scary things sprinkled throughout

[random shell]

The game worked really good as a horror concept

[low gate]

I think the guest was much scarier in prototype 3 cos hes a little too obvious in pre alpha

[near hawk]

It was never horror!!!

[last lotus]

I dunno man, the Guest scared the pants off me a few times

[near hawk]

Tru

[untold grotto]

the scariest thing ive seen in the game was janusz blowing up himself

[near hawk]

Idk If i'd call that scary or just Dark

[untold grotto]

no i mean like

[near hawk]

It's for sure the darkest thing

[untold grotto]

i wasnt expecting that

[random shell]

I know

[near hawk]

Oh yeah i agree then

[untold grotto]

i got scared by the explosion

[low gate]

I sort of want the guest to be a lot more because being honest he does feel like hes just a barrier at this moment but i do think the golden apple section with the guest was quite cool

[random shell]

Is there explosion in the pre-Alpha I didn’t finish it

[near hawk]

Yes ||Janusz exploded the bakery with him in it||

[random shell]

Oh, I must’ve missed that that must be towards the end

[last lotus]

Btw what happened to the female npc, the one with the long curly hair? I haven't found her yet

[low gate]

She and isaac arent in this one cos they didnt have much to do

[last lotus]

Ohhh

[near hawk]

They removed her

[random shell]

I heard somebody say on the server that she’s getting cut from the whole game. I don’t know if it’s true or not.

[near hawk]

Not for Isaac, he was removed due to "lack of resources", he does have stuff to do to out knowledge

[low gate]

Yes but not in way you think

[near hawk]

But for Iris yeah

[last lotus]

Bummer

[near hawk]

Only if they can't find a new role for her

[random shell]

No trade her for Jacob. He weirds me out.

[near hawk]

Yes i hate Jacob

[low gate]

To be fair she was sort of "person who does things"

And jacobs peak

[bronze phoenix]

I think fr fr that this is the exact acts in pre alpha

Act 1: the hotel (because in the act 1 section there is one circle
Act 2: the 4 buildings (because there is 4 circles in act 2 section in the whiteboard)
Act 3: the muscesem (because there is 2 circles in the act 3 section
Act finale: the weather station (because there is one final circle in there)

[random shell]

Thank you I don’t know why I don’t like him

[near hawk]

He should do what Janusz did

[last lotus]

Having background npcs is nice

Even if they don't do much

[untold grotto]

local problem solver

[low gate]

Yeah pretty much

[near hawk]

I wonder If they removed her so as to make the town feel even more hopeless

[untold grotto]

and she is strongest citizen according to code

because janusz jacob and isaac is weak asf

[random shell]

I feel like it could fit in the game if the last devlog said they’re gonna add lots of characters in it

[low gate]

Jacob defintely not anymore he took some 300 ravounds for an online course and became a peak violent beanie wearer

[untold grotto]

he is still coward and gutless in the code

[random shell]

I am a Jacob hater for no reason

[near hawk]

You already got someone killing himself by causing an explosion, whatever everyone else is up to.
No problem solver makes it even worse.
Probably not though.

[untold grotto]

thats why he attack with you with throwing stuff

[low gate]

The code lies for no reason

[untold grotto]

instead of going face to face

[near hawk]

#killJacob

[untold grotto]

jacob is evil canonically

[random shell]

And replace with Iris

[untold grotto]

he is terrorizing the town with lawnmowers

[low gate]

cos its funny

i guess

[untold grotto]

i gues

İ gues

[low gate]

haha karv

[near hawk]

So it's good to sacrifice him

[low gate]

we all know the peakest one is neib

i want to unleash him into the town

[untold grotto]

i sacrifaced the historian

[near hawk]

Honestly they should make that the goal of the game

Sacrifice Jacob

And Historian too she's also annoying

[random shell]

I would she made me rage quit she’s too powerful and strong

She can throw you out a window at that age

[low gate]

the historian is really buggy for me

[untold grotto]

yeah she seems stuck in museum

[low gate]

shes so old she has to stand in one place for 3 years after moving to recover

i got her into the town and she didnt do anything

she got stuck in a door

[near hawk]

She was in the house for me

She got stuck quite a bit while in the museum though

[random shell]

She’s always in the museum for me and if she sees me, she launches me out the window and makes me fall down the hill and I restart. I’m starting not to like her.

[low gate]

shes a bit of a hermit

[random shell]

Her and Alma have beef

[low gate]

Ive noticed that a lot of people cant seem to understand that being in AIs home can make them kick you out

[random shell]

More like thrown out

[low gate]

its mostly the popular youtubers who managed to snag a prototype ticket and have no clue what theyre doing bijuu

[random shell]

Is coned in it that’s the one I forgot. I don’t remember seeing.

[near hawk]

He is but he's stuck in his house

[low gate]

yeah hes sort of there in this prototype

he only leaves at night

[near hawk]

I barely saw him when i played too lmao

[low gate]

i think he might have special item but i havent got it yet

[random shell]

Yeah, I need to see the blowing up thing because I don’t know when that happens

[near hawk]

I don't think he has.

[low gate]

They lisented to that NPCs need to provide more classic HN gameplay but it went overdrive

They are all superglued to their house now

then when they leave they just end up dying

jacob cant drive to save HN2

janusz get bored and breaks his oven

[near hawk]

Fortunately
(As in fortunately Jacob can't drive)

[low gate]

historian usually gets snatched by the guest i watched him run out of the dark and grab her and ran back into the dark

that was an interesting moment

[random shell]

That will be my new strategy to get her out of that museum

I need to find the camera that I see screenshots that it blinds npcs

[royal drum]

hi

[bronze phoenix]

yo i made it to the weather station

only took me like 4 hours

[severe merlin]

We still try to find balance

[low gate]

I understand i think it was still done well but the next step is defintely to make them venture a little more

[bronze phoenix]

yo nikita why does the forest dweller not catch the neighbor?

for some reason

[winged glade]

guys

[brave thunder]

they did it on purpose

[near hawk]

Forest dweller sees him as a monster in the files

[winged glade]

so i got a run of 1:21 on hello neighbor 3 pre alpha and was wondering how i submit it

[random shell]

That sounds suspicious for him

[near hawk]

Whether it's a story reason or just for The Guest to not attack Teddy is unknown

[bronze phoenix]

yo i finished the game

time to do some exploring

I guess

[random shell]

One question what does the item gun do? I tried using it, I don’t really know the purpose of it.

[winged glade]

would anyone know alot about speedruns

[bronze phoenix]

i do

[winged glade]

[brave thunder]

[bronze phoenix]

i wanna explore the map

[bronze phoenix]

[brave thunder]

[bronze phoenix]

of the game

or

[crude ravine]

Hi guys, someone started for solving lore?

[untold grotto]

its both

[untold grotto]

there is not something to talk about

[brave thunder]

for these you put them into /GameDir/HelloNeighbor3/Content/Paks/LogicMods/
create the LogicMods folder if it doesn't exist

[near hawk]

It's pretty simple tbf

[untold grotto]

its just same stuff we have been talking since prototype 3

[brave thunder]

for this one i included the place to put in a txt file

[winged glade]

???

[untold grotto]

since pre alpha tells a pretty clear story

[crude ravine]

Okay

[random shell]

Is the pre-Alpha going to be shut down eventually like the other prototypes?

[last lotus]

Considering her house is here with her picture in it I have to assume she'll return at some point

[brave thunder]

[winged glade]

[brave thunder]

[winged glade]
