hn3-discussion

[vernal osprey]

plus i didnt see you say anything

you just pinged someone under my message

i still stand by my point, tho i overreacted a bit

[vernal osprey]

joking about racism when you're privileged is still bad

[spring grove]

we got green blue and purple

[astral plinth]

my favourite colour trio

[long field]

hi yall

im back

[astral plinth]

hello ✌️

[deft summit]

Peterson's house and I think the Mayor's mansion has white doors though

[late scroll]

is it really all that serious though? other hn games and the series have had representation, plus hn3s characters are mostly all blue purple or green

[long field]

ok

yo chaos

uh

which mr peterson's house to be specific?

from which game

[orchid gazelle]

racism discourse in the hello neighbor discord

[deft summit]

the museum is not a house and I'm talking about HN2 since Harveyyy mentioned HN2 having alot of non-white doors

[near hawk]

Best not to do that argument

[crude ravine]

Hi chat what are we talking abt

[long field]

[deft summit]

[vernal osprey]

nikita made a joke about racism in hn3 before gta6 i stand by the point that nikita, as a white privileged man, should not joke about smth like that because this is disrespectful

[crude ravine]

This image taken when lightning strikes?

[crystal hare]

[rocky siren]

It’s 5AM for me

Cuz I woke up 2 or three times

[long field]

mines 20:48PM

[wild girder]

Mine is also 20:49.

So I'm assuming you also live in the UK.

[near hawk]

22:50

[wild girder]

Are there 3 people who are from the UK here?

[long field]

i live in england

as in UK

im born in italy

[near hawk]

I'm not

[long field]

and im from bangladesh

and im muslim

[near hawk]

Anyway

[long field]

mhm?

ye

[near hawk]

This isn't a HN3ly matter

[long field]

yeah

but someone else started it tho

not me this time!

[near hawk]

Fair

But also

[long field]

?

ye

[civic totem]

We're Hello Neighboring it up 3 times in this place

[long field]

yeah fr!

oh and

hi varx!

[near hawk]

What's the ideas on what each act of HN3 is based on pre alpha

[civic totem]

Hello

[civic totem]

Hm

[near hawk]

The mayak part should be the last

But other than that i'm a bit unsure

[wild girder]

Is it me or does Peterson feel weirdly out of place in HN3? I feel like he doesn't fit the overall vibe compared to the other characters like The Guest.

[long field]

he does actually!

[wild girder]

All I know is that it's not going to be like HN1 with each act being different segments of the game.

[long field]

ok

[untold grotto]

act 1 - you get the note from the hotel
act 2 - you go to 4 buildings
act 3 - bridge lever, museum and amusement park
final - mayak

[long field]

bro said everything

ok well

i got this

idk if theres any changes

in hn3 pre alpha

i cant quite tell

[long field]

no wait

thats not hn3 pre alpha

[untold grotto]

also a bit more accurate versioneis

[wild girder]

I can't unsee this now.

[long field]

hn3 p3

[untold grotto]

act 1 - you get the note from the hotel
act 2 - you go to 4 buildings
act 3 - museum and amusement park
final - mayak

[wild girder]

Safe to assume it's going to be expanded more in later builds.

[untold grotto]

yeah

[wild girder]

As in more objectives in each act and/or more acts entirely.

[long field]

is the map for hn3 staying the same?

[frosty gyro]

i dont think it would matter since the game follows a non linear structure

[civic totem]

Yes, to some degree

[frosty gyro]

theres not going to be "acts" in the traditional sense

[near hawk]

I'm curious
And it kind of does matter since it's one of the things they sat down and thought for before pre alpha

[wild girder]

Yep. They're just going to expand accordingly. Some of unused buildings get actual purposes, hopefully more stuff within the forest.

[long field]

can yall show me a small screenshot on hows hn3 alpha gonna look like??

[gritty mist]

i dont think that exist

[near hawk]

Not for when you play it sure

[wild girder]

Nobody (apart from Eerie Guest) knows.

[long field]

ok

[lunar geode]

guys when is hello neighbor season 3 animation coming out

[smoky haven]

tbh i still think the whole like storm thing is kinda poorly thought out at the moment

[civic totem]

We don't know

[near hawk]

Not related to this chat.
But it's unknown.

[long field]

i heard its coming very soon

i heard it yesterday

[wild girder]

The most we have are these two images which Might be what the game could look like in the future. But we don't know. (Image on the left is from a looping animation all the way back when HN3 was announced. Image on the right is a paint-over of an early version of the Proto 3 map)

[lunar geode]

ohh

[wild girder]

Maybe around Halloween like season 1 and 2

[smoky haven]

i still feel like timing the entire day just left me more stressed out then actually having fun playing 😭

[lunar geode]

yh maybe

[smoky haven]

that could be just me tho how do yall feel about the whole storm thing

[blissful river]

The areas has a few different props. That’s about it. (If that’s what you are referring to)

[near hawk]

Wouldn't any other promotional art and such things also count for that then

[long field]

hmm...

[blissful river]

The left image is really unlikely, they removed the Steam images because they are not the same art direction anymore.

[long field]

yeah i agree

it is

[wild girder]

There isn't really any promotional art (that I know of) at the moment. This is the closest we have to anything like that because every build so far has very basic placeholder assets for the environment (that is currently getting replaced)

[wild girder]

That isn't a steam image and it looks a lot more high detail. Compared to everything else we've seen so far.

[blissful river]

It’s the same map and foliage, I consider it the same lol.

[civic totem]

The right one is more accurate

[blissful river]

That, and the Steam images are from the RBO map with different foliage and one promo house.

[long field]

yupp

[smoky haven]

i really want more colour in the game and less dead trees and more variants 😭 not all trees die during the winter

[near hawk]

Well in the message that Nikita released with the second one you showed there's a few more

[long field]

fair enough

not all tree die in the winter

[smoky haven]

yeah like i feel like the game just needs more colour and less dead trees because every tree being dead is overkill

[wild girder]

I know. I just used the one picture because they all have the same look and vibe.

<@&1162799252192379000>

[smoky haven]

oh nooo somebody got hacked

[near hawk]

Ahh

Tsk tsk tsk

[smoky haven]

i feel like we really really need more colour in the game

like ykk flowers and stuff even early spring has sprouting flowers. some alive trees too

[blissful river]

I feel like these paint overs are the best examples of the art direction right now that we have.

[long field]

where is this from?

oh shoot guys

i remember now

[blissful river]

Nikita shared them in this server last year.

[wild girder]

I wonder if they're going to implement some of that old steam image look in the replacement foliage due to a lot of people really liking it.

[long field]

wheres the wacky and wonky artstyle gone?

[wild girder]

It doesn't fit the game's vibe and tone

[smoky haven]

yall say that but HN 3 is still really wonky in the art style

[meager walrus]

eugh yuck

dead trees

[blissful river]

The environments are going for a more realistic look, while the characters are more cartoony.

[meager walrus]

ts looks like november

[blissful river]

No kidding.

[smoky haven]

it defo really needs more spring vibe into it this is more fall/ winter then early spring. some greenary, flowers and alive trees would not hurt

[wild girder]

I think what he means is the vibe is more dark and gritty compared to the bright and colourful look from HN1 and 2

[blissful river]

It’s set late winter/early spring lol.

I do think the game needs some evergreens.

[smoky haven]

early spring still has greenary tho

[blissful river]

Yes

HN3 needs some more green

[smoky haven]

like these would be so cute in the game i think

[long field]

yo guys

i gtg bye

its bedtime

[blissful river]

I wish they would bring back the dead birches. Added some extra color to the brown.

[smoky haven]

that and also the purple and blue trees from prototyoe 1

it was so wacky and cool looking

[blissful river]

Yeah, those were technically the evergreens.

I agree though

[wild girder]

I don't think it would work because HN3 meant to give off the vibe of stumbling into a mysterious ghost town in the middle of nowhere.

[smoky haven]

even abandoned places have greenary in them

just having it all be dead and orange isnt really flattering

[wild girder]

I meant the flowers. I agree that there should definitely be more greenery.

[blissful river]

At least HN3 has a “tad” bit of green already.

[smoky haven]

tbh just have them grow a little around the town

not too much but just a little

yk something like this

[blissful river]

This feels like a bit much, but a little would be good.

Even some small spruce trees here and there would look good.

[smoky haven]

or if not green then just more vibrant because like for example raven brooks in hn 3 really reminds me of night in the woods

like colours like these would be really nice

less dead more vibrant

[blissful river]

We will just have to wait and see with the new foliage 🤷‍♂️

[smoky haven]

imagine this with HN 3 i feel like it would be so much more gorgeous

[blissful river]

HN2 colors fr.

[smoky haven]

yeahh i feel like the vibrant just fits sooooo much more with hn then the really washed out colours

i mean technically.. i guess we could just mod in some new trees if they dont do itjust to see how it would look like

[night vigil]

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure Raven Brooks looks dead because it basically is. Although it would be pretty to get an HN game with an open world aspect, and have these colorful and vibrant artstyle choices.

[smoky haven]

no i get that... but hn 3 is so dead it just looks really unappealing sometimes. like everything being really dead is kinda overkill in my head

like get some stronger oranges in there. some purples some blues maybe some greens like yk

[blissful river]

I feel like mixing these 2 looks would be perfect.

[night vigil]

Yeah I understand

[wild girder]

I disagree. It's meant to feel very different and I honestly love the vibe. I'm hoping it has more of a greyish green type of look.

[smoky haven]

thats okayy its just my personal taste on it

[night vigil]

Opinions 🌈

[wild girder]

I hope they implement some of that steam image style with the new foliage seeing as a lot of people love it.

[smoky haven]

i did this little concept in roblox studio i think when prototype 1 came out oh i think it would look if it had more colours to it this is kinda old so nothing too crazy but yeah

its not the best but i tried lol this is like a year old

😭

[wild girder]

Is this public? Can people go in and play this?

[night vigil]

Looks good tho

[smoky haven]

noo i never finished it i think haha

[lunar geode]

did hn3 release

i stopped playing hn for like a few years and left this server

[smoky haven]

but basically i mixed the colours in the trees to be like purple, yellow, orange, some green some blue and it was really nice

[smoky haven]

its in pre alpha right now ! go play !!

[night vigil]

Full game? no. Pre Alpha? Yes

[wild girder]

Oh you innocent little thing.

[wild girder]

It's not even 30% done (I think)

[lunar geode]

i forgot what a pre alpha means

[blissful river]

This makes me think of these concept images

[near hawk]

A build where the basic ideas are layed out iirc
#hn3-discussion message

[night vigil]

It's an Alpha, with a Pre in front of it

[lunar geode]

ohh

[smoky haven]

yess i love this this is what i based it off of

[wild girder]

It's like the bridge between the prototype stage and the alpha stage.

[smoky haven]

wait i think i can show u

also random but i really hope that they add like an abandoned factory we could explore

would be a nice hint to hn 1 because it was like cut

[blissful river]

Yeah honestly I love the golden look of this.

[smoky haven]

yess golden and warm and cozy i think HN 3 really needs a lot more of that

[blissful river]

I just hope they can find the right mix.

[smoky haven]

the lighting rn is kinda flat in a way

[blissful river]

Yeah

[smoky haven]

especially if u dont have global illumination on

[night vigil]

That's true

[lunar geode]

why does Peterson look like that in hn3

[smoky haven]

hes like 100000 years old

[wild girder]

Would like this except a bit more grey.

[night vigil]

He's about 80

[blissful river]

Design choice, and he’s old.

[near hawk]

Artstyle + he's 85 now

[wild girder]

I have a question. What am I waiting for?

[night vigil]

You decide

[lunar geode]

85?!

[blissful river]

New foliage? lol.

[lunar geode]

i thought he’s like in his 40s or 50s

how old is Aaron now

[night vigil]

||(I really gotta change my name)||

[smoky haven]

yeah u can see the colours here a bit more.. never finished it so it kinda looks like bad but u get the gist i think haha

[lunar geode]

Aaron is probably in his 20s or early thirties and is still stuck in his dads basement

how old is aaron

[near hawk]

About 40 i think

[wild girder]

My name is normally Cosmix. I only changed it to FOLIAGE as part of a really obscure joke.

[smoky haven]

u have the same pfp as my friend and its really confusing

[lunar geode]

40 and is in his dads basement?

[wild girder]

How is that possible? I made this profile picture myself.

[near hawk]

Nah as it seems he is the Guest instead.

[night vigil]

I changed it because of people annoying me with their impatience in basically EVERY community I'm in. But that "joke" has kinda run old soooo idk

[lunar geode]

will aaron be visually shown as 40 years old in the game

The creators of the game should have made like peterson give aaron smth that doesn’t make him age

so it can make more sense

[night vigil]

People are theorizing it's the Forest Dweller (Guest) but nobody really knows

[lunar geode]

like imagine an 85 year old father still being overprotective for his son that’s in his 40s

[wild girder]

The game's story is meant to be very grounded so that would not be possible at all.

[lunar geode]

oh

[lunar geode]

people are theorizing that what’s the forest dweller

[rigid jasper]

imo we need at least some acknowledgement of the thing and that mr. peterson still has his

[night vigil]

Aaron

[lunar geode]

No way aaron is that crow

why do u guys think that?

[night vigil]

Well the guest in HN3 is not supposed to be a crow

[lunar geode]

oh my bad so what’s it supposed to be

[night vigil]

The mascot from the Golden Apple Park. The "real" guest

[wild girder]

Not really because it has no place in HN3. The Thing is meant to symbolise fear and trauma and HN3 isn't about that so it wouldn't make sense for it to be there.

[civic totem]

No

[lunar geode]

oh is the mascot supposed to be evil?

and why do u guys think aaron is the guest

[civic totem]

The "god" Guest (not FD) came before the GAAP

[lunar geode]

he’s just a regular kid that pushed his sister off

[night vigil]

But like FOLIAGE said, it's probably not Aaron because the story is supposed to be very grounded, so bringing back aaron probably doesn't make sense

[wild girder]

The mascot is an urban legend (which we know VERY little about) that the town likes to celebrate. The Guest is some madman who kills people (again, we know next to nothing about his story)

[lunar geode]

Ohh but why do people think that aaron’s the mascot

[wild girder]

I never said Guest isn't Aaron. I said The Neighbor definitely couldn't have given him something to stop his aging. Aaron could very easily be The Guest but there's simply no evidence.

[civic totem]

The Festival, which is literally the town worshipping the "god" Guest, is a longstading tradition in Raven since before 1980
The GAAP opened in 1984

The GAAP mascot is the actual "god" Guest

[night vigil]

Oh okay I miss understood

[civic totem]

Also I'm pretty sure you got it the other way around lol

[wild girder]

We haven't gotten any mention of him in HN3 yet and there's no evidence of The Guest being anybody else so it's likely.

[untold grotto]

its the god figure GA used as their mascot, the god thats protects town from storms

[lunar geode]

oh ok

[night vigil]

Yeah, that's what I was trying to say. I got mixed up

[civic totem]

Np lol

[wild girder]

Personally. I don't think it's a god. I think it's just a fictional symbol of hope, peace and joy created when the town was founded and the people just like to celebrate it because it brings people together for a joyous occasion. (I could be completely wrong though. Right now, until we get more substantial evidence that points to any other idea, all we can do is give our own thoughts and theories.)

[night vigil]

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be resembling a god figure. But the message behind that god figure is basically everything you mentioned

[lunar geode]

wait but if hello neighbors story is supposed to be realistic then isn’t Aaron’s memory supposed to be affected and his brain functioning?

[untold grotto]

this ☝🏻

pretty sure the townspeople sees the figure as god

[wild girder]

Could be that but again, it could go in many ways. All we can do right now is speculate respectfully.

[night vigil]

And again, I think Mr. Peterson is trying to take this "Joy" away from the people, as this Artwork suggests

[civic totem]

But why tho?

What's his actual goal?

I wonder

[night vigil]

Well if he can't be happy, why should they be?

[untold grotto]

no to mention he is doing that even though he knows he is going to die

he literally kills himself and others

with no hesitation

[lunar geode]

how old was aaron in hn2

[civic totem]

12 or 13

[night vigil]

If it wasn't clear in everything we've seen in HN about Mr. Peterson so far, he is done with everything. All he is trying to do is get revenge on the people that took everything from. And I think that goes for Raven Brooks as a whole.

[wild girder]

The main reason why I don't think The Guest is meant to resemble any sort of god is mainly just because I don't really see Hello Neighbor having religious themes in the story and I don't think it would fit the more grounded tone of the story. The only time I can ever see anything happening that isn't grounded is probably just going to be symbolic things like the other games however I don't see that being nearly as prevalent in this game as the other.

[lunar geode]

and what year does hn2 take place in?

[night vigil]

Mr. Peterson is definitely still the coolest character in this series lol

[civic totem]

1996

HN3 takes place in 2028

[lunar geode]

ohh

[smoky haven]

He also has a White star And a Black background

[night vigil]

I mean, there's an whole cult in HN2 sooo, I guess that's kinda religious

[wild girder]

Does the star have a blue outline?

[untold grotto]

this and not to mention there is a whole storyline of bunch of teenagers sacrifacing a child to their god

[night vigil]

Oh yeah that 🤣

[untold grotto]

and the god in question is someone behind costume

[wild girder]

I'm not sure how canon that is meant to be now because they haven't even landed on a core story before Pre-Alpha.

[winter lark]

It's just a white star on a black background, other people are bound to have something similar

[untold grotto]

still thats a HN story, and nikita implied that this storyline might be still canon

he said something from p3 might be canon when people asked about this

[lunar geode]

but i don’t know how people theorizing that Aaron is probably the guest in hn3 relayed to my question if he will be visually shown as 40 years old in hn3 like with wrinkles and tall

[civic totem]

Maybe

[untold grotto]

i think the biggest evidence of this whole vandals kidnapping isaac thing is going to comeback is the vandals in pre alpha is nothing burger

[untold grotto]

two of them is just protector and their leader is just there

[wild girder]

NGL. I kinda prefer The Vandals simply being a nasty (but not necessarily evil) group of youngsters looking into this "Fake Guest"

[lunar geode]

oh

[untold grotto]

i actually always thought coned is evil or bad and manipulated the other two

[smoky haven]

I lowkey still dont really like the whole Storm 😭 i Hope they rethink it because rn Its way more of An annoyance

[untold grotto]

one is depressed asf

and coned has a similar design to the guest in a way

i always thought he based his look after his god

[near hawk]

I like to think Coned is kind of a narcissist.

[untold grotto]

this actually fits with the blue skin color

he loves his job

[night vigil]

Kinda like trying to look like him yeah I thought that too

[untold grotto]

he loves being the leader of a some kind of outcast group

[near hawk]

Which is bossing around people

Yeah

[untold grotto]

yeah

[night vigil]

Or maybe trying to resemble him in way of trying to show that he has some sort of "power" idk

[untold grotto]

you can say the people he is bossing are just depressed teenagers

they are easy to manipulate

im pretty sure the other 2 was not actually that interested on sacrifice

[winter lark]

I don't like covered or coned, because it feels like they have no reason to really "be" there

[untold grotto]

i always thought him being some kind of "prophet"

[winter lark]

They don't feel like fleshed out characters

[untold grotto]

like the Historian

[night vigil]

Yeah exactly

[near hawk]

Well truth be told we only got much Lore on Signed

[wild girder]

I believe the vandals are just Mutual friends and they probably decided on Coned to lead their group.

[winter lark]

Oh wait I don't think I've met coned ingame

I keep dying and getting frustrated

[near hawk]

I barely met him too

[untold grotto]

i mean we do know signed lives in his own head

[near hawk]

He's just hiding in a house

[untold grotto]

in p3 jacobs house for some reason

[winter lark]

I've seen signed, and covered, it's those 2 I don't like

[wild girder]

You know how children and young teens normally tend to look into urban legends like Bigfoot or the loch Ness monster? (At least I think that's a normal thing)

[wild girder]

I believe the vandals are meant to be like that.

[untold grotto]

our point is same but im just saying that one of them got too obsessed with that legend

and they randomly encountered with the guy in the forest that is acting like urban legend

[wild girder]

Signed is honestly my favourite one.

[untold grotto]

and the legend in question is a god figure

[winter lark]

Btw is that Bob Dylan

[near hawk]

I wonder what's with this beef Signed and Jacob have

[winter lark]

Is Jacob the guy working on his car?

Near the supermarket

[wild girder]

Yep.

[untold grotto]

and they ended up sacrificing a child, its probably the forest dweller wanted that though

[untold grotto]

who

[gentle wedge]

can someone help me?

[wild girder]

The guy in the blue jacket I'm assuming you're talking about.

[civic totem]

Signed won't let Jacob have Quantum Knight EP. 8

[winter lark]

I dont even know but this gif looks weird, does his face get wider

[wild girder]

I'm gonna make up a random storyline on the spot. They're both young adults who went to high school together, Jacob was the typical "nerdy loser" and Signed was the typical "cool guy" who bullied him a lot.

[untold grotto]

they dont i believe

its just him doesnt liking all of the vandals

rather than specifically signed

[winter lark]

The guy wearing an actual sign on his head being the cool guy?

[night vigil]

Raven Brooks is a place where hopelessness strives, at least for a lot of people. And when someone is telling you that if you follow their way, get you to trust them, and do as they say, anyone can be manipulated into doing what they want you to do. Doesn't really matter if it's a teenager or not. That's my take on the whole Vandal group thing. They are pretty cool together tho I gotta say ||(Credits to Red Card)||

[untold grotto]

none of citizens do love them

[wild girder]

... he's insecure maybe? I donno. I'm just coming up with random ideas.

[winter lark]

It would be cool if they roam the town like this instead of just having their own locations to sit in

[night vigil]

It really would

[untold grotto]

signed is literally would be one that is bullied

[winter lark]

I feel like it makes way more sense for them to be literal outcasts and Jacob just doesn't like outcasts ig

[wild girder]

Has anyone else just decided to come up with funny head-canons for these three?

[winter lark]

Exactly

Clearly they're hiding their identities, for whatever reason

[untold grotto]

he is the one introverted

[untold grotto]

its a visual representation of their narrative

[winter lark]

Yeah

[wild girder]

I honestly didn't put much thought into that. I just came up with the most random thing I could think of.

[smoky haven]

this is literally what i imagine finished hn 3 looking like gen

[winter lark]

You should put more thought into them though tbh, otherwise it's just a random idea that anyone could come up with, yk?

[untold grotto]

for example signed covers all of his face and always hunched over because as if he is inside himself, he is in his own space, under the weight of his thoughts and emotions

[winter lark]

I could just as easily say that signed is the real guest that people forgot about

[wild girder]

I intended it less as a genuine theory and more as just a fun little joke idea.

[night vigil]

Covered can actually do sick tricks with her roller blades, and has great talent, she just doesn't show it. Idk if this counts as a head canon lol

[wild girder]

That's a cool idea!

[winter lark]

It would be good if there are like "side stories" unrelated to the main story, and those three characters have their own mini storylines you can solve to help them come out of their bubble

[near hawk]

I know the cone probably represents Coned making himself like the dweller but i wonder if it could also be to show he is kind of exalted.

[wild girder]

In actuality, I have no idea what their little spat/rivalry/whatever could be about.

[night vigil]

I mean, that's kind of already in the Pre alpha. With Jacob, Janusz and The Historian

[winter lark]

What if he was crossed by someone in the past, and now he's scared to let anybody in, hence the traffic cone

[wild girder]

I believe that's what they're trying to do.

[winter lark]

Yeah but the vandals don't have their own

[night vigil]

True, the Vandals need that too

[untold grotto]

i actually think of the roles in group like

signed - he just does what he is told
covered - although she is part aware of what is going on (and loving that), she don't grasp the seriousness of the situation and remain loyal to coned
coned - the guy who loves bossing around and obsessed with the guest, probably the guy who planned whole sacrificing

its mostly based on their skin colors

[night vigil]

That's sounds about right

God I hope the characters are actually going to be characters

[near hawk]

Colour theory here

[night vigil]

It has so much potential

[near hawk]

The basic idea of what the colours mean

[winter lark]

Guessing their character based on skin colour??? Sounds like RACI-

[civic totem]

No

Lets not

[winter lark]

Chill dude, it's a joke

[night vigil]

Omg does somebody have that nikita message

[civic totem]

I'm chill tho

[near hawk]

#hn3-discussion message?

[night vigil]

YES, thanks

[winter lark]

Lol

[untold grotto]

also canon personality traits that is supporting it

signed is gutless and is wary when it comes to socialize, a slow guy

covered is not coward but not that brave either, agressor in sociality, energetic

coned is brave, tresspasser and hyperactive

[wild girder]

This is my head canon for their personalities.

Signed - A guy who loves talking big about themselves but isn't the sharpest tool in the shed.

Coned - A typical Jock "Cool guy" type of person who has a bit of a short temper.

Covered - The most "normal" one of the three who can't really be bothered with their nonsense.

[wild girder]

This isn't meant to be taken seriously. This is just my fun little head canon.

[untold grotto]

i see
though what i was saying was their confirmed personality traits

[wild girder]

If they ever made plush toys of the vandals, I would 100% make a fun series about them with those personalities getting into all kinds of nonsense.

[wise lynx]

is there a date for release of hn3 or do u have any prediction for date of release?

[primal wedge]

after gta 6

[wise lynx]

oh yes nice

soon

[primal wedge]

💀

you don't understand jokes i see

[wise lynx]

i do brother gta 6 not coming out soon

shi gonna release when im like 60

[astral plinth]

I want plushies of the vandals.

[civic totem]

There isn't one yet

[wild girder]

What's causing this weird MrBeast scam thing to happen occasionally in this server?

[celest adder]

I found this amazing template in CapCut. Tap the link to try it out! https://www.capcut.com/tv2/ZTBNxRdXG/

I made this

It like a edit for hn3

[bronze phoenix]

bots look for servers that is not high moderated and chat there

[misty linden]

I think gta 6 might come in a few months

[wise lynx]

Thats nice i hope a gtx 1060 ti handles it✌️✌️

[misty linden]

🙃

[misty linden]

Wait is this official photo?

[blissful river]

No

[misty linden]

Oh

[slate notch]

is there still multiple endings in the current build of HN3??????

[misty linden]

Yes

[dry geyser]

How to get them????

[near hawk]

Nah

Just the one where you find report 13

[dry geyser]

Not cool

[slate notch]

dang it whyd they remove it?

[near hawk]

Ikr

[near hawk]

Probably because they reworked the story a bit and didn't get to add any more endings

[slate notch]

okay that makes sense then

[near hawk]

That's prototype 3 not the current build

[brave thunder]

the current version is pre alpha

[slate notch]

can you play prototype 3 or is it not available

[near hawk]

I don't know, i heard it was archived somewhere but take that with a grain of salt

[slate notch]

yea alright cheers ill have to do some digging

[dry geyser]

Thank you king

Top ten larpers oat

[misty linden]

Who larp

[misty linden]

Sorry my mistake i always confused about prealpha and proto3

[rotund plaza]

Please stop spreading misinformation.

[rotund plaza]

There is only 1 ending for pre-alpha

[rotund plaza]

Only in prototype 3

But there will be multiple endings in the next build and full game.

[rotund plaza]

You

[misty linden]

About?

[rotund plaza]

The multiple endings, it's obvious, my guy

[misty linden]

Oh okay

[lunar geode]

hi

is the pre alpha of hn3 on ios

[limpid pewter]

no

[lunar geode]

oh

[astral plinth]

i think it’s on more than one console, not sure which ones. I play on steam.

[lunar geode]

same i also play on steam

[limpid pewter]

its only on pc so far

[lunar geode]

oh

[pulsar cradle]

Are we going to have our own house in the future?

[rotund plaza]

What kinda question is that

"Is GTA V on Android?" Ahh

It is impossible to run a game something like HN3/GTA V on mobile

It is straight up impossible.

[fathom cosmos]

It's not inpossible, you'd have to do massive tweaks to the game though. GTA is pretty much impossible though..

[untold grotto]

no

[lunar geode]

bro i hate when most hn games are on console

[meager walrus]

they are also on pc too

[lunar geode]

yh

[misty linden]

Calmdown

She might don't know

[rotund plaza]

Don't assume people gender

[misty linden]

I talk with her

[rotund plaza]

Oh okay.

[misty linden]

Hi bubble

That's your dog in the pfp right

I think I remember you

[broken galleon]

hello

it is

[crude ravine]

No

[astral plinth]

seems like the town square is our hub. Although for now only the hotel is a functional building.

[chilly sundial]

I liked the idea that the guest takes the victims and disappears, scattering feathers and missing persons posters, just like in the Secret Neighbor.

[crude ravine]

There is no missing posters in pre alpha unfortunately

Except isaac's old one

[chilly sundial]

Okay, but I'm wondering if this unconfirmed idea would be in alpha 1.

[wild rapids]

is anyone know when is hn3 out?

[civic totem]

No, there's no release date for it yet

[wild rapids]

ohhh okay

ty

[civic totem]

Np

[tall sorrel]

yeah, we're just waiting for the next build (Alpha 1) to drop, which probably won't be for awhile

[smoky haven]

tomorrow....

noo im kidding dw

[crude ravine]

No we dont but our opinion is 2027 or 28

[limpid pewter]

i say maybe mid 2027

[wild rapids]

thats long

[exotic pewter]

guys....

UE6 has been revealed....

[limpid pewter]

nice

[crude ravine]

Yeah unfortunately

[crude ravine]

nah

[silk atlas]

The Logo:

[astral plinth]

Is that Unreal Engine?

[fathom cosmos]

Why does it look ai generated...

[crude ravine]

Yes

[near meadow]

Hey, Nikita, do you plan on recreating this in your new artstyle one day? Always wondered how the family picture would look with the new style

[long field]

hey nikita, do you want to change the design of mr peterson's house someday?

into this??

[vivid creek]

is this ai

[long field]

no

its on reddit

heres more images

[meager walrus]

bro

[civic totem]

The house is meant to be destroyed tho

[long field]

yes ik

i just found it on reddit

someone restored mr peterson's house in hn3

[fathom cosmos]

Probably through AI?

[long field]

nah

[fathom cosmos]

I don't know it looks off.

[long field]

not AI

its doesnt to me

i also have built this house

[civic totem]

Yeah it's probably AI

[long field]

in minecraft the destroyed one

i sent screenshots on minecraft hn maps server

heres more tho

[fathom cosmos]

Why would it be restored though when it's destroyed.

[long field]

i think this is a fangame

i mean when i kinda saw the back

[astral plinth]

this is cool, it won’t be like that in game though as it’s supposed be run down

[long field]

the back side is completely destroyed tho

the backside aint finished

[astral plinth]

It may get some polish though, like everything else

[long field]

and the interior

hm

yo ice

[astral plinth]

ha, it’s like a movie set

[long field]

remember back in hn2 full game?

[astral plinth]

hey

[long field]

the front porch had a porch light?

[astral plinth]

i believe so

[long field]

they shouldve added that in hn3

[astral plinth]

it’s a ruin, probably no lights

except lamposts

[long field]

fair enough

hm

[astral plinth]

it’d look creepy though

[long field]

theres a small chimney in the rood tho

in the roof theres a small chimney tho

[astral plinth]

Did the OG house have a chimney?

[long field]

u mean the act 1 house from HN1?

[astral plinth]

yeah

[long field]

no

but in hn3 it did on the destroyed house

[astral plinth]

i thought as much

[long field]

in hn vr it had a chimney

and in hn2 alpha 1.5

and in hn2 alpha 2

[astral plinth]

oh of course in VR

[long field]

yeah

[astral plinth]

house always changes

[long field]

mhm it does

agreed

[astral plinth]

like Nicky said in the show

[long field]

did he?

[astral plinth]

kinda like the house is alive

[long field]

hm right

wait

check again

thats the act 1

[astral plinth]

correct

[long field]

doesnt have a chimney

[astral plinth]

didn’t have one in HN2 either

the front windows are slightly different in the HN3 house

[long field]

hn wtrb's does

a huge chimney

[astral plinth]

oh cool

Nicky climbed out of it in ep 1

[long field]

yeah

when trinyty bales moved into raven brooks

[astral plinth]

I haven’t watched yhe show for a while, waiting for S3

[long field]

AH SAME

IM ALSO WAITIN FOR S3 TOO

oh well

ok

uh

[astral plinth]

Really hope it doesn’t drop when i’m on holiday like it did with S2

[long field]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrm1r_hcsik&pp=ygUrZ2FtaW5nIHdpdGggQUNLIHNlY3JldCBuZWlnaGJvciBhY3QgMSBob3VzZQ%3D%3D

cant see if secret neighbor did

the chimney

[astral plinth]

in the missing or wanted map it diesn’t

[long field]

hm

[astral plinth]

i still play

[long field]

remember the livingroom window

theres 2 windows

[astral plinth]

has a chimney is the other maps

[long field]

theres 1 window in secret neighbor

of peterson livingroom

[astral plinth]

SN has strange layouts.

[long field]

hm

really?

i think it does yeah..

[astral plinth]

the basement was messed up. And there’s a big greenhouse

[long field]

yeah

[astral plinth]

that map is really hard

it’s so dark

[long field]

and theres a huge vent where it leads to the basement

the act 1 house is pretty big

and different design kinda

the front window in stretched i think

yeah

i watched the videp

and the bathroom and kitchen is very different

the bathroom is smaller

and flat like

while the kitchen is massive with boarded up windowns

nah i doesnt have a chimney

[astral plinth]

that’s impressive. I missed out on the HN2 alphas

[long field]

hm

wait

heres hn hide n seek

its basically the act 1 house

but small changes tho

right?

the front door is red

hn2 beta didnt

hn2 demo didnt

hn2 patch 9 didnt

hn vr did

and finally

hn3 mr peterson's house did have a chimney

ok im bored cya

[astral plinth]

bye for now ✌️

[long field]

BYEEE

CYA TMRW

[wild rapids]

28 is long

[long field]

wdym 28

[wild rapids]

He said nh3 out in 2028

[long field]

yeah

[wild rapids]

THATS SONLONG

very long

[long field]

hn3 takes place in february 29th of 2028

[wild rapids]

I might have kid I might married

Don’t have time hn3

[wild rapids]

Da

Mn

[rigid jasper]

HN3 peterson house is intentionally dilapidated both for narrative purpose and presumeably story purpose

[long field]

yes ik

[rigid jasper]

oh my god yeeess i loved night in the woods its so hn3core

[untold grotto]

what do you mean

because youre like saying same thing

[rigid jasper]

yeah idk im js tired rn

[smoky haven]

shh let them COOK

[rigid jasper]

uhhhh the guest is secretly the canned food item

wait no

the clock item

[smoky haven]

technically cant we just deep fry the guest

[hazy quest]

hi, new hn3 player here, can any1 explain how can i give the cook book to the bakery guy

it is mentioned in the wiki but i cant seem to interact with him in any way and im lowk loosing my mind

is the recent playtest bugged or am i just dumb

[smoky haven]

you just click on him with the right mouse button

[hazy quest]

omg thank you LMAO

i didnt know u could do that

[smoky haven]

😭 haha thats okay it took me a while to figure it out

you can give all the characters items !

[hazy quest]

im guessing that goes the same with the 8th episode and the gas station guy right?

i tried handing him the tape and i couldnt do it im gonna try that with the right click now

[untold grotto]

yes

[lunar geode]

i genuinely hate the idea of Aaron being in his 40s and he will be having wrinkles

and will be grown

like imagine an 85 year old father still being overprotective of his son that’s in his 40s

[eager glade]

whats goin on round these parts

[wide field]

Hi guys

[eager glade]

but he isnt protecting him anymore isnt he

[lunar geode]

he will be

[eager glade]

how

guest is scared of neighbor he will js run away from him

[lunar geode]

guest? u mean aaron

[eager glade]

aaron is obv guest in hn3

[lunar geode]

aaron tried running away from him multiple times

[eager glade]

atleast for now

[lunar geode]

it never worked out unfortunately

they should have let hn3 take place a year or two after hn2

[eager glade]

there are other games coming out anyway so maybe

but hn3 should remain 2028

[lunar geode]

why do u think that?

[civic totem]

Why?

[smoky haven]

tbh theodore doesnt really seem to care 😭 as of now at least

[eager glade]

because we will figure out who guest is in that game and also it will probably be huge for story

cuz its ful of mysteries

[lunar geode]

in my opinion i genuinely hate the idea of hn3 being in 2028 like peterson will be in his 80s and he’s still overprotective of his son who’s in his 40s

[civic totem]

Ted probably doesn't care much about Aaron anymore

[eager glade]

a HN3 that is the same eyars of hn2 would be cool but we have games that are close to HN3s future like nickys diaries and act 3 and a book reset day

[lunar geode]

But i stopped being a fan of hn for years i just joined back in the fandom yesterday why is it important about who’s the guest and why di u guys think it’s aaron

pls answer

[eager glade]

because the guest is a huge mystery in the lore

[lunar geode]

Ok but if peterson lets Aaron go aaron would prob tell the police

or i feel like Aaron would feel bad for his dad and keep a secret

[eager glade]

for like years and we dont know who or what he exactly is

[lunar geode]

bc u can see in hn2 when peterson was crushed by that crow

[civic totem]

Idk

[lunar geode]

ohh

[civic totem]

There evidence for the Aaron is Guest theory but I forgot

[lunar geode]

i think i remember people talking about it from 2 years ago when i was in this server

ohh

[civic totem]

That's not why people think the Guest is Aaron

[lunar geode]

but do u know why people think it’s aaron

[eager glade]

he said why is it so important about who the guest is

[lunar geode]

isn’t the guest the crow

[eager glade]

cuz game files show that guest relationship with neighbor is monster so guest is afraid of theo

and theo sees guest as a friend

[civic totem]

Yeah that

[eager glade]

dont even mention nicky guest

[lunar geode]

ohh but wym “that guest relationship with neighbor is monster”

[eager glade]

it means that guest is afraid with neighbor

every NPC in the game has different relation ships with other NPCAs

like everyone in town seeing neighbor as the monster so they are afraid of him

youll understand if you see prototype 2

[quartz sequoia]

are there any screenshots of this cause I've only ever seen messages saying that 😭

[quartz sequoia]

do you mean 3

[lunar geode]

when u say neighbor do u mean peterson?

ohh i understand a bit

[eager glade]

no cuz in prototype 2 you can see the relation ship bar

[civic totem]

It's in the files

[lunar geode]

Aaron is afraid of his dad

[civic totem]

In the code

[lunar geode]

and so is the guest

[eager glade]

yes

[quartz sequoia]

where

[eager glade]

also hello neighbor 3 guest isnt a crow

[civic totem]

Idk

[quartz sequoia]

mr peterson isn't even in prototype 2

[lunar geode]

so what is it? and what does it do

[eager glade]

oh my days im explaining him that he can see the relation ship bar in prototype 2 if he wants to see how it is

not js theo

[quartz sequoia]

^

[eager glade]

he can still understand how it works in prototype 2 even if theres no neighbor

[quartz sequoia]

"Everyone in the town sees the neighbor as a monster"
"You'll understand if you see prototype 2"
"I'm not just talking abt theodore"

you are contradicting yourself

[eager glade]

there is still enemy and last difficulty is monster thats only for guest in prototype 2

[quartz sequoia]

in that message you were talking abt theodore

[eager glade]

i said this too

[eager glade]

and this

[lunar geode]

can anyone tell me what the hn3 guest is and what it does?

[quartz sequoia]

yeah you're talking abt the neighbor aka mr peterson

[eager glade]

NPCs isnt theodore

[quartz sequoia]

is he not a Non Playable Character

[eager glade]

every npc in game has different relations with others doest mean its js theo

[smoky haven]

unknown but there is two and what it does is basically kidnaps the residents of raven brooks and you if you managed to get caught

[civic totem]

Oh my God...

[low gate]

What

[eager glade]

oh my days dude

[smoky haven]

oh the horror...

[quartz sequoia]

your english makes it really hard to understand you

[smoky haven]

noo i dont think its browny's english here...

[civic totem]

Browny and Aero are clearly having an misunderstanding

[quartz sequoia]

they keep switching from "You'll see how they react to mr peterson in prototype 2" to "I'm not talking about him"

[smoky haven]

noo i think ur misunderstanding a bit

😭

[quartz sequoia]

explain

[smoky haven]

browny is talking about two things

[quartz sequoia]

ok so there's this word called "and"

[smoky haven]

the relationship bar and the neighbor. they are trying to explain how the relationship works but it got kinda mixed up when you asked questions

[smoky haven]

okay ? there is also this thing called kindness you should try it

[eager glade]

exactly this

[quartz sequoia]

i can't be kind if I don't know what i'm supposed to be kind towards

[eager glade]

this server has officially lost it bruh bring back gold days

the shiny ones

[smoky haven]

oh i dont know maybe the person taking their time to explain something to you

[quartz sequoia]

I said two things and they gave up

https://tenor.com/view/hello-neighbor-hello-neighbor-3-gif-9431711433213275224

[smoky haven]

they didnt they literally explained it to you im reading it right now

[quartz sequoia]

^

[eager glade]

how did i give up by saying that

[quartz sequoia]

Were they not talking about how the other characters react to mr peterson

[smoky haven]

its okay did you know they offer free reading comprehension classes

[quartz sequoia]

english is my first language but thanks I suppose?

[eager glade]

i read smth clearly bullcrap when i explained something to a guy

[smoky haven]

you sure ? english is my second and i understood browny just fine. if you didnt understand you could just say it normally

[eager glade]

also this has nothing to do with my english

[quartz sequoia]

you swapped between two things within seconds of each other

[smoky haven]

no they explained to you TWO things that go with eachother

[quartz sequoia]

how does the neighbor go with prototype 2

https://giphy.com/gifs/khaby-lame-khabylame-stares-at-the-camera-with-a-mug-and-mask-JpRNpektQW3WicgNM0

[smoky haven]

they used prototype 2 as an example because its the only prototype where you can see the relationship status bar. where they react to certain other npcs in different ways

[eager glade]

i said every npc in the game has different relation ships

[smoky haven]

thats why they used prototype 2

[eager glade]

then i said "like"

not literally

[quartz sequoia]

wouldn't devlog 2 work better

[eager glade]

companion

[smoky haven]

😭 they serve the same purpose but its so much better if you experience it yourself in the prototype because you can actually see the interactions

[quartz sequoia]

right but devlog 2 explains it more in depth

it'd make more sense especially for a new person like Bonnie

[smoky haven]

😭 okay go watch that, jesus

[eager glade]

so ig ur js leaving the other thing and now saying i should have talked about devlog 2

okayokay

[smoky haven]

yk what.. lets move on shall we

they need to make it so there is no UI visible in the game because the immersive experience is so much better

[lunar geode]

how will aaron have time to kidnap people when he’s in his fathers basement

[smoky haven]

pretty sure the running theory is that the guest is aaron

[quartz sequoia]

the new ui might help make it look a lot more immersive

[smoky haven]

at least in HN 3 ?

[smoky haven]

yess i hope the ui disappears if you arent using it because its so much nicer if you have it clear

[quartz sequoia]

I really hope they replace the tree models

[smoky haven]

they are placeholders as they are stock models ^^

[quartz sequoia]

i know

I just hope they're replaced by alpha 1

[smoky haven]

that be gen so awesome

[quartz sequoia]

since it makes the game run poorly

[crude ravine]

It would be same as previous games. For example hn2 developing started on 2019 and finished on 2022. There is 3 years of developing progress

[smoky haven]

like really realyl awesome

[quartz sequoia]

40fps at max settings on my pc is really bad

[smoky haven]

tbh i think once they take out all the folliage and replace it with the optimized and stylized ones its gonna be wayy better

another question

Yeah. I hope alpha 1 will be more optimized

[ionic bay]

The pre alpha version was very well optimized, but more is needed
