Quentin can time travel??!?

lyric zephyr
#

Yeah

silver vine
#

thats cuz Norman was a journalist during the 60s, when Ted was a child

#

he should be super old during the time of HN2

opal jackal
#

The Guest is evil because no one is nice to him

glad hornet
#

Jk

lapis sonnet
#

this is interesting

toxic mist
#

if you think about it

#

the lore of hello neighbor is pretty damn accurate and similar to the movie "the village"

#

an enclosed town...

#

rumors of bird like creatures or a cult at least that keeps ppl afraid to leave

lapis sonnet
#

to the point where i think they took inspiration when making the movie since its so similar

#

yeah

#

im watching it rn

#

its good

#

I never watched it. i just searched summer of 84 and it showed up

gentle elm
#

Hey chat! I know people have already been asking this question a lot but i've been inactive in this server for some time so I wanted to ask, HNVR is canon (and so are the books) and HN2 is not?

oblique drum
gentle elm
gentle elm
teal imp
#

Also SN added badges which contain old lore stuff

#

And HE and hnd are old lore

#

The only game that doesnt fit into old lore is hn2

naive dew
#

mhm

teal imp
#

And new lore has shitty writing that retcons hn1

#

Just dosregard the AS as an AU theres nothing good in it

gentle elm
#

I consider the AS and HN2 as their own separate continuties. And I prefer the old lore enstablished in HN, HND, SN, HE and the books.

teal imp
#

But the thing is

#

The As doesnt even tie into hn2

gentle elm
#

Yes?

gentle elm
teal imp
#

Hn2 has refferences to both new and old lore.

#

Hn2 is in 1996

gentle elm
#

And the AS is in modern times...

teal imp
#

The AS has smartphones

teal imp
#

Its a useless change that only complocates things

#

Hn always had 90s tech

#

Because the games took place in the 90s

gentle elm
teal imp
gentle elm
teal imp
#

Act 3 was the manifestation of Nicky's trauma

teal imp
#

Looks awful

gentle elm
teal imp
#

And theres photos of it in the police station meaning its likely that its real

#

Seriously the world class writers are world class screw ups

gentle elm
#

So, is it like this?:

Books, Graphic Novels, HN, SN, HE, HNVR: Canon

HN2: Non-Canon

AS: AU

teal imp
#

And lets not forget alex wants the guest to be heavilly tied to the AS

#

So thats another character ruined :D

gentle elm
#

"Heavily tied"?

gentle elm
safe charm
#

Guest is gonna be in AS before hn 2 basically

#

And im not sure how to feel about that

teal imp
#

He wants the guest to be introduced in the AS

#

Even tho other games and books already introduced him

#

When he said that on twitter it made my blood boil

gentle elm
teal imp
#

It also led to the "Didn't we fire you for something?" Moment

naive dew
#

one thing i noticed about the guest in HN2 is that theres barely anything about him showing, only in the beginning

gentle elm
teal imp
teal imp
#

thats the infamous alex guest thread

gentle elm
#

I read it. I'm angry. Wasn't he in The Raven Brooks Disaster and Reset Day already?

teal imp
#

he made this issue himself

gentle elm
#

I remember starting reading the "thread" and loosing interest, so not getting to the "Guest will be introduced in AS" part. Yes, I can see why people were angry.

gentle elm
#

I like the AS, but this is getting redicolous.

teal imp
#

that sort of bs

gentle elm
teal imp
#

they probably didnt even try

#

he just got new writers who didnt care about hn at all

gentle elm
#

Yes i know. I just don't know how to answer

teal imp
#

also cant forget this gem

gentle elm
teal imp
gentle elm
#

Context?

gentle elm
teal imp
#

link to the messege #hello-neighbor message

#

the messege before

gentle elm
#

...

#

Wow. Just wow...

teal imp
#

btw

#

a fun fact about vido

#

he had his comments bassically banned from the TB youtube channel

#

alex probably hid his comments

#

lmao

gentle elm
#

Sigh...

#

What did he even do to be treated that way?

teal imp
#

I genuinely dont get what Alex thinks he is gaining here by doing all of this

teal imp
#

from what I know he was unpaid mod for a couple of years but then quit

#

so he wasnt even fired lmao

#

anyway this is becoming less of hn lore and more of tb lore

#

either we move this to dms or something or we change the topic

viscid knot
#

Tinybuild lore 💀

pale urchin
#

But tbh

#

If Alex comes down to trash vido again, I will make a meme out of the words that came straight from his mouth

#

Anyways, hn

teal imp
#

vido is the only alex I trust at this point

#

@shell gull im here, istg if u tell me what u always say

#

yeah yeah ik the guest used aaron to get to ted

shell gull
lapis sonnet
#

yet in the ending we see the guest leave the nest as if they are two different entities

#

so its confusing

shell gull
lapis sonnet
teal imp
#

an EGS dev said guest Aaron is canon (its probably a joke)

lapis sonnet
#

im out peace

teal imp
safe charm
#

Again i would be really happy if they tie hn 2 to vr

shell gull
teal imp
shell gull
teal imp
safe charm
#

How long would it take to tie hn 2

#

With search and rescue

teal imp
#

so a while?

safe charm
#

Yeah

shell gull
#

If they do they would also need to take in consideration if all the extra stuff, such as Archives, but they most likely will forget about them and so we will either need to find a way to tie them in or just write them off completely.

teal imp
#

anyway if they do rework the story I will have my faith in EGS restored

red quartz
dreamy ravine
#

The Guy that hits u at the end of the 2 is the crow man

teal imp
#

the shadow doesnt match up at all

dreamy ravine
#

Welp its my guess

teal imp
#

and the guest (please dont call him crow man) isnt even human

#

the guest seems to be some sort of demon in hn2

dreamy ravine
#

He is a major character in the lore

teal imp
#

in other hn media is an entity made out of Teds and maybe Aaron`s emotions

teal imp
dreamy ravine
#

Whos that

#

Ran D. Omguy?

#

Ohhh

#

Intersting

teal imp
#

he was the previous journalist before Quentin

#

now is he simming

snow mauve
#

He's so called "Missing Journalist"

#

Confirming he is a journalist obviously

teal imp
#

no way Michael Jackson!!!

#

Michael
Jackson

#

MJ

prime breach
#

The guy that hits you is obviously pre-alpha man back from the dead to recalaim his protagonist status from Quentin.

trim wasp
#

Whats cannon, the books, the animated series, or both?

snow mauve
#

Well only books and games are what I consider canon

#

But Animated Series, I would just ignore it and make it not canon as it tries to make it canon when it doesn't work well

snow mauve
shell gull
#

The Old lore is canon, as HNVR has brought it back along with HE and HND, Gus’s making Alex’s AS a small fever dream non canon.

manic dirge
#

is the new part of the basement in hnvr made by ted or his parents?

strange lance
#

his parents would be dead...so Ted

manic dirge
#

oh ok

manic dirge
silver vine
#

this guy looks soooo much like my math teacher

#

even the hair is literally the same

#

and the face shape

#

ask your math teacher was he a journalist that went missing

silver vine
#

no

#

he wasnt

Soo

So

#

I'm bored

#

Someone end AS

unkempt sleet
#

Very hello neighbr lore

pale urchin
#

Neighbor is in the forgis

safe charm
#

So what is the differences beetwen old lore guest and new lore guest

#

Ik some stuff

snow mauve
#

He's Mr. Peterson is the killer

unkempt sleet
#

We dont know the new lore guest

#

Thats the difference

snow mauve
#

Then now he's some demon thing that involves with Ted and Aaron's emotions

pale urchin
#

Guest does a backflip in the new lore

#

Also world class writers? How about world crash writers

safe charm
#

I think i prefer old lore guest though i like him being connected to Ted

unkempt sleet
#

He still can be connected to Ted
But we dont know because we know pretty much nothing about the new lore Guest

snow mauve
#

Anyways

#

Animated Series

#

SUCKS

#

damn it

opal jackal
#

Fr fr

#

Let's write a cartoon! World class! (x5)

pale urchin
#

World crash*

safe charm
#

So i think old guest lore made sense personally its weird that they would change it for some reason

pale urchin
#

Its money

#

They need money, so they waste money to gain more money

safe charm
#

Chat died

teal imp
#

listening to the books

#

so far im liking it

shell gull
snow mauve
#

I think the bozo meant the AS lore version of the Guest

teal imp
#

who cares about the AS?

#

certaintly not the world class writers

snow mauve
#

I mean that's just them ig

shell gull
shell gull
snow mauve
snow mauve
#

We do not know yet

#

But probably like hn2

#

Or idk

#

Well that's on them

#

For not understanding the actual lore

shell gull
#

Well that lore isn’t canon.

#

No

#

Yup

#

You see

#

Turn out it’s really just Alex wanting money

#

And the Old lore still continues, HNVR, HE and HND.

#

Thing is some fell to it

shell gull
#

As they got retconned into AS lore

#

But

#

They can fix it

#

With enough player feedback maybe

#

That’s why we only refer to Old HN2 and Old SN

#

The old lore

#

Also

#

Old Lore still continues in SN once in a while

safe charm
#

YES

#

And sn update proved old lore is still canon

shell gull
#

ACTUALLY, that’s the nest.

#

The kids are just ending up in the nest.

#

You know the place in GN2 that is all red and sinister that is the Guest’s lair.

#

Graphic Novel 2

shell gull
#

Nope

#

Also

#

@velvet fossil

#

Can we talk HNVR or?

velvet fossil
shell gull
#

Is it alright if I DM you the plot of HNVR?

velvet fossil
#

Let's respect the majority vote Imbirheart

safe charm
#

Or we can

#

Go to spoiler section

velvet fossil
#

Dm is fine 🙂

ripe berry
#

SN is still Old Lore

#

It's just HNVR must've snuck in some retcons that made let Kid Class 7 and the Guest Class be allowed

#

Because the new Badges in SN are all non-AS Lore/"Old" Lore

#

The most likely retcons they did was 1. Make the Guest exist before Act 1 making it more likely the Rescue Squad would be aware of the Guest, and 2. Add a 7th Kid to the Rescue Squad who goes missing before HE

#

These are spottible in promo material and the very beginning of the game so it ain't spoilers

#

Making Guest exist before Act 1/having a bigger role in RB by the events of Act 1 can be inferred by the fact Nicky has Guest pinboard in his room

#

and 7th Kid retcon can be inferred by Blacked out Missing Posters that don't belong to the Rescue Squad, Aaron, Nicky, and Mya

#

(The Poster is a blacked out Aaron Poster but the fact it's different from the normal Aaron Poster and is right along-side the Aaron Posters imply it to belong to a different character)

#

Therefore HN2 is the only game following "New" Lore/AS Lore

#

even then HN2 is what I'll call Proto-AS Lore where it still has soe aspects that don't fit AS

teal imp
ripe berry
#

yep, that's the Retcon to Non-AS Lore that let Guest Class exist

#

(I just assume the Guest was only meant to exist after Act 1)

ripe berry
teal imp
#

tbh

#

I feel like the 7th kid is going to be nicky

teal imp
#

because the AS doesnt make sense

snow mauve
snow mauve
ripe berry
#

They just have to make the 7th Kid Class not look like Nicky, it can be literally a exact copy of Act 3 Nicky for all I care but as long as he looks different he ain't Nicky and they kept accurate to Old Lore

#

just don't mess it up Holo

teal imp
#

what nicky even do?

#

lockpicker?

shell gull
viscid knot
#

They will make it break into the basement to save Aaron

unkempt sleet
#

You guys are taking this lore thing very seriously tbh
I mean why are you putting names to people who enjoy something that you dont?
Some people dont care about the funny neighbor lore like it's their life

#

But no, everyone should care about the lore and should like the old lore, and those who dont are crackheads and kids, right?dollstare

silver vine
#

I dont know why ppl are like this man

#

in the long run, does it really matter?

#

does it matter in your life if some cartoon is good or bad?

#

look, I dont "support" the AS, but, insulting ppl who watch it is just...

#

too much

#

whats the point?

#

we all are going to die anyway

teal imp
#

the dude dislikes the AS because it ruins the story of a game franchise he likes

#

its not that deep

silver vine
#

you are going to die someday, I am going to die someday, the ppl who watch the AS also will die someday, Alex and his world class writers who ruined the franchise are also going to die someday

teal imp
#

why are you talking about death?

silver vine
#

cuz

#

theres literally no point

#

in criticizing the AS

teal imp
#

by that logic theres no point in criticizing anything

silver vine
#

there is point in criticizing things

#

but whats happening here is just too much

teal imp
#

why? we will die everything we do is meaningless by that logic

teal imp
#

people are upset and alex messed up and is doubling down on it

#

its probs not gonna stop unless things get better

silver vine
#

ppl are criticizing AS and HN2 as if they killed their entire family or stole eveyrthing from them and left them homeless

teal imp
#

people were scammed and they have the right to be pissed lmao

silver vine
#

they have

#

they have every right to criticize

#

but

#

it has to have a limit

#

everything has to have a limit

teal imp
#

I guess the reason why it repeats is because the criticisism is being ignored and shit

silver vine
#

ok

#

the AS is bad

#

it wont change

#

so what?

teal imp
#

its not even adressed at the minimum

silver vine
#

someday, it will be

teal imp
#

when I asked alex about this he just dipped

silver vine
#

Alex cant be silent about this for long

#

insulting ppl who watch some cartoon is not the right way

teal imp
#

that way I wouldnt be upset

silver vine
#

ok

#

you can be upset about the AS

#

but, how is the AS ruining the quality of your life?

teal imp
silver vine
#

you are not

#

but many ppl are

teal imp
#

they are just dumb kids enjoying a bad cartoon (lets admit we all did that at some point)

#

at one point we were all dumb and we enjoyed dumb and mediocre stuff

silver vine
#

I really miss the old days

teal imp
silver vine
#

2020 - 2022

teal imp
#

oh that

#

I left when alpha 2 was getting teased because I was frustrated on how the game cant seem to find a consistent story

#

I kept in check with hn2 and by the time the beta released I realised im not gonna enjoy the full game

#

tbh I can only really blame alex and tb

#

I dont get what alexus was thinking when he lied about hn2

#

he gained nothing from that

#

tbh the only reason why the community is still in a mess is because the lack of a response

#

theres no sorry or anything

#

just silence most of the time

#

an EGS developer joined HNG and chatted here and that was a nice change of things

#

but stuff like alex saying "didn`t we fire you for something" dont paint a good image of tb

#

sadly nothing is going to change unless alex does something to make the community not be upset ig

#

anyway seems like you moved on from this discussion

#

guess I will too then

silver vine
#

I need to study

#

final year

#

Im doing math rn

#

actually finished

#

thats why I came back

safe charm
#

So what lore do you think

#

They will make the main one

raw fractal
#

Because tb

safe charm
#

Nah I don’t think so

#

Every game is old lore besides hn 2

#

And even hn 2 doesn’t fully fit AS

#

They will have to change every game then

raw fractal
#

Maybe they'll change the lore to old and make animated series it's own special lore for itself

safe charm
#

Yes

#

Secret neighbor got more old lore added

#

In its newest update

#

So like maybe they realized old lore worked better

#

For the games

raw fractal
#

Yeah

safe charm
#

Aaron needs to be removed in hn 2

#

For it to fit

#

Together

#

The hn 2 beta is actually old lore

raw fractal
#

Beta was peak hn2, besides hg

safe charm
#

And they said to be continued in the end

safe charm
#

With the fake Aaron

raw fractal
#

The beta was expected to leave on a cliffhanger, not the full game

safe charm
#

But then to fit AS I guess they changed the story

#

Which is a shame couse I really loved the betas plot

#

Want me to explain old lore guest

#

If you don’t already know

#

That is

raw fractal
#

Would you rather fix or remake multiple games to fit new lore, or remake or fix one game for old lore

safe charm
#

Well 1 game

#

So I think that’s the direction they are going in

#

I loved old lore guest

raw fractal
#

I did too

safe charm
#

In old lore it’s implied either he’s something born from teds emotion

#

Or that he’s something that always existed feeding of off emotions and torment basically he’s the manipulator

#

In new lore it’s implied the cult summoned him in ritual in the museum

raw fractal
#

Nicky's emotions are portrayed by a shadow man, and mr.peterson's emotions is portrayed by the guest.

safe charm
#

Yeah

#

I don’t really agree it didn’t make sense

#

I loved it

#

I just love what they we’re going for with the beta

raw fractal
#

The guest must be mr.peterson's feeling of grief, fear, and depression

safe charm
#

Yes

raw fractal
#

Because his family died

safe charm
#

and in 1.5 remember the ending

#

When he’s trapped and banging

raw fractal
#

Yes

safe charm
#

On the door it likely symbolizes

#

That Eventually the guest took over he’s body

#

And trapped him inside himself basically

#

So he can’t do anything

#

Besides watching what the guest is doing

raw fractal
#

How's your weather is a reference to the mayak

safe charm
#

Yes

#

It is

#

Originally I guess there was gonna be a storm

#

Caused by the mayak

#

Or something like that

#

The guest looks really cool

#

In the background in my opinion

raw fractal
#

I would love if quentin would have to stop the guest from activating the mayak

safe charm
#

Yes seen the cut hello guest fight cutscenes

#

With man in the hat?

raw fractal
#

The mayak was such a cool concept

#

A huge storm that would damage raven brooks

#

A lot

raw fractal
#

I loved old hg ost

#

I wish they didnt change the original hn2 hg concept

safe charm
#

Yeah

raw fractal
#

It would've been a great game

#

Most likely better than the hn2 we got

safe charm
#

I just loved the old story that the beta teased

#

As well as the alphas

raw fractal
#

Yeah

raw fractal
#

I liked that ending better than being hit on the head and dragged away

safe charm
#

The music is really eerie

raw fractal
#

It is

safe charm
#

Also the beta intro is really good with establishing the story

raw fractal
#

Yeah

gentle elm
safe charm
gentle elm
#

AS is fine, but i don't like the new lore it enstablishes

#

And besides, i think no one else likes the AS besides a few (like me, but mostly because it's finally "Animated Hello Neighbor")

safe charm
#

It would be much better if they made it an alternate universe

#

The AS

gentle elm
#

I was happy when HNVR brought back the old lore

#

And the fact that it was a far better sequel than HN2

gentle elm
#

Let's hope so.

#

That could be why.

#

Yeah.

#

Yup. Honestly, what's canon and what's not is pretty confusing now...

#

From what i've understood, AS isn't canon and is supposed to tie to HN2, while every other game is canon and so are the books and graphic novels.

#

I think that HE could be canon, but who knows.

#

Yes. Also, this isn't related to the "canonicity" stuff, but i wanted to discuss about a line in the second graphic novel.

#

At one point, Ted says something along the lines of "I wanted to change the future, but you can't do that can you?"

#

And I was always confused about what he meant.

safe charm
#

But failed

gentle elm
safe charm
#

Hello engineer

gentle elm
#

That's honestly cool.

safe charm
#

But he failed I think

gentle elm
safe charm
#

The mayak is probably responsible for the manifestations

#

Like the guest

gentle elm
safe charm
#

But that’s just speculation

gentle elm
#

I recall that during the game he was working on something in the scrapyard/amusement park

#

Yes that.

#

So during HE, Ted was working on the time travel tech.

#

But then the Rescue Squad arrive.

safe charm
#

Yes

#

To bring his family back

gentle elm
safe charm
#

Yes

gentle elm
#

I kinda like that time travel now is an element in the lore of HN, even if it isn't too important

#

Yes it's a metaphor

#

He was like taking control of his emotions.

#

Because Ted was about to do an heel-face turn. That could cause the Guest to become weak and die, so he manifested and attacked Ted to take control of his emotions again

#

I dunno

#

But it's likely that he didn't

#

After all, the Guest appears at the end of the graphic novel. Though that might not be Ted at all.

#

But the Guest's physical form

#

Given HNVR

#

Though the fact that the Guest is still around does seem to imply that Ted might be... "fine"?

#

Yes, cuz i think that originally HN2 was tied to the books. Now it's likely non-canon.

#

It might be that he crawled out of the place before it blew up.

#

His possible survival is definetly tied to the Guest

#

Yes, that is VERY plausible.

#

That the Guest escaped in Ted's body cuz without him he would die/weaken. I think it's the most plausible way, lore-wise, of how Ted could've survived. Especially with how the Guest appears in the graphic novel's ending.

teal imp
#

honestly im kind of hopeful for the lore

#

sn added book lore stuff

#

hnvr is book lore

#

He is book lore

#

hnd is literally a book 1 recap

gentle elm
#

That makes me very happy!

teal imp
#

the only game that has issues with the books in hn2

#

and even that has the fart machine

#

they just need to fix hn2 to have it be canon

gentle elm
teal imp
#

posts rarely get that many likes

safe charm
#

Wait how does people

#

End up in the nest

teal imp
#

randomly

#

ig

safe charm
#

Let’s go here

teal imp
#

Regina ends up there randomly

#

I wonder why

gentle elm
teal imp
safe charm
#

Yes

shell gull
# safe charm End up in the nest

Well The Guest can go there whenever, but it’s usually through weird gates, these gates could be completely ordinary things like doors or closets or little holes on walls, we saw Regina found one and went through it, the kids did the same by finding these different gates in HNVR.

#

The best way to explain the Nest is imagine it’s like the upside down.

safe charm
#

Like does the guest originate

#

There

shell gull
#

No

#

He’s a manifestation

#

But

#

Each manifestation has there own abilities based on what type

safe charm
#

It’s just so confusing with the 2 lores

#

Like please I want consistency

shell gull
shell gull
# safe charm Like please I want consistency

Here, this is an explanation on Entity’s in the Canon Lore: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10eHyfLOZDA2Vf6LTM4BKnbXa1WCPVji_1JyznL1uZ38/edit

safe charm
#

It can’t stay not canon

shell gull
#

From what it seems like, Nikita’s idea was based on P.T.S.D. And taking these things in peoples heads, but if they were actually there, and they weren’t just seeing things.

shell gull
safe charm
#

Like why change the story

#

It was perfect

shell gull
safe charm
#

Some say they won’t change hn 2 story

#

But they have too basically

shell gull
#

I wouldn’t blame him, with TinyBuild doing bad right now, it makes sense to have a last resort.

shell gull
#

Unless they get pushed

safe charm
#

Lore

#

So

shell gull
#

Well

#

Old Lore is still canon

safe charm
#

New badges

#

Got added

#

Which has old lore

shell gull
#

You have SN, HE, HNVR and HND all continuing it.

#

That’s why only refer Old Lore to Canon Lore.

safe charm
#

Isn’t old lore canon lore

#

Smh

shell gull
safe charm
#

It seems like the main thing

shell gull
#

It is

#

Since it’s still going on

safe charm
#

This looked really interesting with the storm and everything

shell gull
#

That means Alex’s AS is just a fever dream

shell gull
safe charm
#

Yes

#

I like it

shell gull
#

It’s Aight

#

Gotta go

safe charm
#

Bye

silver vine
#

announcement was more peak

HE is entirely canon to old lore

safe charm
#

Neighbor I think

silver vine
gentle elm
#

Yes I know it is now.

Ok so here’s every canon old lore hn games

Hello engineer is canon since it shows mr Peterson trying to use time travel technology

gentle elm
#

Basically every game except HN2 follows the CANON old lore

#

And every other installment in the franchise (books, graphic novels and guide books) besides the AS follow it too.

#

Right?

safe charm
#

Yes

#

I think

gentle elm
#

Ok.

#

As long as there are no retcons it's ok.

safe charm
#

Secret neighbor recently got lore badges in the newest update and one is about man in the hat

#

And manifestations

gentle elm
safe charm
#

Yes

#

In old lore at least

gentle elm
safe charm
#

Hn 2 did happen in old lore

#

But it was different

gentle elm
safe charm
#

The beta is old lore

#

It’s mostly spoiler free

gentle elm
safe charm
#

But stuff like fake Aaron

#

And stuff

#

And the amusement park likely

safe charm
#

Yes

#

But it didn’t release

#

Sadly

shell gull
#

It can come back with a slight chance

safe charm
#

Yes

#

It can

trim trellis
#

So basically

#

There was an animation

#

About the secret neighbor characters

#

And how mr Peterson (the neighbor) kidnaps the boy that we see in hn 1, 2 and 3

#

Correct me if im wrong but

#

Doesnt that make sn the first one in the canon

#

Because after you win in sn (entering the basement) you dont know what happens next, but the most common thing to do is save the kid

#

And we see that same kid in hn 1, 2 and in 3 as a grown up

woeful orchid
#

sn is is planning phase, kids are planning the salvation of Nicky, the HN1 kid.

#

then goes HNVR, wich happens right after SN, and HNVR is not a planning phase anymore, its real

#

after HNVR goes HN1 act 2

crude dew
#

you know something went terribly wrong, when the base material and its sequel are the only noncanon things

fallow spade
#

guys pls give me a guest wallpaper for steam avatar

unkempt sleet
#

No

fallow spade
#

why

unkempt sleet
#

Because no

teal imp
#

Ths kids chicken out of saving nicky then get karma for abandoning him in HE

woeful orchid

#

Also iirc we should now be allowed to talk HNVR spoilers in this chat starting today

trim trellis
shell gull
shell gull
#

Finally

#

@velvet fossil

#

Can we talk spoilers now?

safe charm
#

Hi

safe charm
#

But that we should

#

Maybe hide big spoilers

shell gull
#

Aight

#

Well, sucks that Aaron is either Trapped or Dead.

safe charm
#

Not really in my opinion

shell gull
safe charm
#

I do actually have a feeling

#

Betas story

#

Will return

safe charm
#

Why is the guest kidnaping people

#

Like what does he gain

unkempt sleet
#

Nothing, its just his hobby or something

#

He loves kidnapping people

shell gull
silver vine
#

they just dont care about him

#

they just fantasized saving him for fun

#

they literally imagined a maze house with a rocket in it wihen the real house is right behind them

shell gull
teal imp
#

huh why are at his house tho

barren heart
#

Was the kid we were gonna save but he hugged the neighbor in hn2, was he the neighbors son?

teal imp
#

did you not play hn hide and seek?

#

or read the books or anything

#

the son`s name is Aaron

#

the way he is depicted in hn2 is really out of character

shell gull
hazy grotto
#

Man I wished AS we were given dates for their release

teal imp
#

those would have been useless

#

episode 3 was supposed to be out in spring

hazy grotto
#

Yeah

#

But then they said the summer

#

Now it's the end of June

#

Like please just give us a date of the month instead of us assuming

stiff spire
#

I don't think we'll get all 18 episodes by the end of 2023

pale urchin
#

So... no delay announcement...

teal imp
#

I really want the AS to just vanish

pale urchin
#

Get ready because episode 3 might be coming sooner than later

shell gull
pale urchin
teal imp
pale condor
#

Episode 3 was supposed to come out a while ago so I kinda think as died

hazy grotto
#

Lol that be funny but then at the same time why would they just have a teaser 3 weeks ago

shell gull
#

Alright, any ideas for the Nest, we know that it can take many forms, and based on what we’ve seen, it’s best to say that things like the HN2 demo could be part of the Nest.

ripe berry
#

I'm just wondering

#

That if the nest can take on a semi-realistic form in the HN2 Demo...

#

Is it possible that the AS or HN2 FG is inside the Nest without us knowing it?

sour condor
#

sorry 😭

#

ok BUT when will hello neighbour 2 updates come

#

The cliffhanger at the end made me cry

ripe berry
#

When they decide to, the cliffhanger probably ain't being removed anytime soon

#

Because they're probably going to use that Cliffhanger to incite people to watch the Cartoon

sour condor
#

Bro it’s been 6 months

#

almost 7

ripe berry
sour condor
#

And I hate the fact the game was so short

#

Agreed

#

I guess those Roblox kids watch them

ripe berry
sour condor
#

Bro but they probably spent like a couple years on making the game and it took me like an hour to finish it or less

ripe berry
#

Actually

#

They spent 3 years on the game, then in ~December 2021 they started to remake the entire game from scratch

ripe berry
#

We know this due to a leak from the Steam Demo having files from one of the DLCs in a more finished state then the final product dated August

#

Most notable difference between Leaked build and final is there's a entire room in the Leaked build that's not used in the final

#

and don't get me started on the Switch Version being outdated

ripe berry
blazing relic
#

Who is the guest

#

Who’s under that mask

safe charm
#

So nobody

blazing relic
#

They’ve never revealed it in the comic books?

safe charm
#

They revealed hes an entity

#

Or something

blazing relic
#

But the Wikipedia has pictures of a robot neighbor under the mask and a woman under it

safe charm
#

Like that

unkempt sleet
#

Guest is not someone with a costume
He's an entity

blazing relic
#

The guest possessed a robot neighbor?

unkempt sleet
unkempt sleet
#

And Guest posseses the Neighbor, yea

blazing relic
#

When was guests first appearance? Does it have a backstory?

safe charm
#

Yes but we dont know

unkempt sleet
#

We dont know his backstory yet

blazing relic
#

HNVR spoilers coming up so if you haven’t played it you can just not read my message

#

Or I can hide it

safe charm
#

Okay

blazing relic
#

Have you guys played it?

safe charm
#

No but watched it

unkempt sleet
#

I watched it too

blazing relic
#

So you know the ending and stuff

unkempt sleet
#

Yea

safe charm
#

Yes

blazing relic
#

Okay so it’s clear that guest wants to help aaron right?

safe charm
#

No

blazing relic
#

It helps him out of the basement

#

It kinda “possessed him”

unkempt sleet
#

Guest manipulates Aaron

#

With helping him

safe charm
#

He does not posseses him

blazing relic
unkempt sleet
#

But his real intention is not helping him

#

He does it to manipulate him

blazing relic
#

Well I played the game and I thought the guest was trying to help aaron from the neighbor

unkempt sleet
#

Nope, Guest manipulates people

#

He manipulated Neighbor too

blazing relic
#

Damn he’s even cooler now

#

But he was seen chasing the neighbor, why was the neighbor scared of guest

#

?

safe charm
#

Becouse he wants

#

To torment him

blazing relic
#

I mean he kinda did torment him with the simming posters flying around him

safe charm
#

Also i think everyone would be scared

#

Being chased by a Crow human

blazing relic
#

Being chased by a giant crow entity

ripe berry
#

Guest on it's way to try to take over Peterson's Body which would lock him in eternal torment:

unkempt sleet
blazing relic
#

Well the guest is a really cool character

unkempt sleet
#

Yea

#

He is

safe charm
blazing relic
#

I like him even more now

ripe berry
blazing relic
#

Is there coming an act 2 to hnvr

safe charm
#

True

blazing relic
unkempt sleet
blazing relic
#

Is the atleast coming a hn 3

ripe berry
unkempt sleet
#

Too early to think about an HN3

safe charm
#

Yet

ripe berry
blazing relic
#

Does the guest want to scare Nicky now?

unkempt sleet
#

We dont know

#

We can only speculate

safe charm
#

Agony

#

Likely

unkempt sleet
#

That is just a theory though

safe charm
#

Heavily

#

Imply it

unkempt sleet
#

Where does it imply that

ripe berry
#

The Guest is kinda a metaphor that also literally exists under that interpetation

unkempt sleet
#

Guest only appears in Reset Day and i dont remember any implications of feeding off of agony

safe charm
blazing relic
#

#guest-discussion

unkempt sleet
#

I read the books too

safe charm
#

Hm

#

Okay

blazing relic
unkempt sleet
#

Guest kidnaps more people and keeps the town in reset for some reason in the reset day
I dont really remember an implication of agony thing tbh

safe charm
#

The lore becomes even more complicated once you find out theres 2 active canons at once lol

unkempt sleet
#

Thats a whole another subject though

safe charm
#

To understand

ripe berry
safe charm
#

True

unkempt sleet
#

Since when HN2 is stuck between universes lmao

ripe berry
#

I'm saying HN2 is a mix of the normal lore and the AS Lore to where it's not quite both since references to Books can be found in the game but it clearly ain't Main Lore since ||Aaron is alive and about||

unkempt sleet
#

Hello Neighbor: Into the Neighborverse is gonna solve every problem we have with the canonsMayor

blazing relic
#

New movie

safe charm
#

Maybe aaron being in it is just temporary like maybe its just a placeholder storyline

unkempt sleet
#

Or maybe Aaron isnt dead

safe charm
#

Becouse its unfinished

untold lark
#

say im gonna re-write the HN lore to tie in with HN2 and no im not going to use the new lore since its shit so do yall like the idea?

unkempt sleet
#

Sounds cool

safe charm
#

Though

#

Likely with the guest

#

Or in the void

unkempt sleet
#

Void? You mean the Nest?

safe charm
#

Yes Many Calls it the void

ripe berry
#

Guest World moment

unkempt sleet
safe charm
#

Many called it that

unkempt sleet
#

Why?

#

Is it like a file name or something

safe charm
#

Becouse its a alternate dimension

ripe berry
#

the filename would be Guest World

safe charm
#

Its just a nickname

ripe berry
untold lark
unkempt sleet
ripe berry
#

yeah

safe charm
ripe berry
safe charm
#

Yeah

#

One of those things

#

100 procent

unkempt sleet
#

I dont think Nest is a real place tbh
In the GN2 it's implied to just Guest messing with the character's dream to talk to her iirc

ripe berry
#

It's only really important because Book 4 is in 1991 iirc and it's the birthdate of a dog, implying it to be close to 1996 and not modern day like AS, making it technically a main lore reference

unkempt sleet
#

And in HNVR it doesnt make sense if the Nightmares are actually real in a nest dimension or something

#

Actually, it would make sense if Guest is the cause of Rescue Squad seeing the nightmares

snow mauve
#

AHHHHH

#

Animated Series Sucks

blazing relic
#

I’m gonna replay hnvr now

blazing relic
snow mauve
#

Also hello uhhh

unkempt sleet

You killed the conversation, so i dont see a reason to continue
Bye

snow mauve
#

Amazing 👏

#

Anyways hello neighbor animated series

#

SUCKS

safe charm
#

Im still here

#

Lol

ripe berry
#

Quick restart a conversation

snow mauve
#

Hello neighbor

#

Animated Series

#

Sucks

#

There

#

I fixed it

#

👍

safe charm
#

So what lore is hn 2 mostly

untold lark
#

none

snow mauve
#

Hopefully a Mr. Apple doesn't return and wine about it

untold lark
#

0

safe charm
#

Like theres references 2 both smh

untold lark
ripe berry
#

He wasn't even whining about AS

#

You were 😈

snow mauve
safe charm
#

The storyline seems mostly connected to new lore but the secrets seems more to old

snow mauve
safe charm
#

Well there are references to old lore

#

Nicky house

#

And tree house

snow mauve
#

Yeah there's a Nicky house

ripe berry
safe charm
#

And dates

snow mauve
#

Which idk what that means

safe charm
#

Like 1996

snow mauve
ripe berry
#

HN2 doesn't fit in AS lore nor Main Lore

snow mauve
ripe berry
safe charm
#

But forgot to delete old lore

#

Stuff

snow mauve
safe charm
#

Like the build

#

Huh?

ripe berry
#

Probably because HN2FG Version 0 is a build only ~6 Months after the creation of AS Lore

snow mauve
#

It's just a own thing cuz the devs don't know what the actual lore is

safe charm
#

Well they need to decide on what lore they are gonna use

ripe berry
safe charm
#

Wait is our full game build

#

Outdated

#

Or something

ripe berry
#

My personal opinion is that HN2 is a games only timeline without HNVR

ripe berry
#

But on release yes it was outdated

snow mauve
safe charm
#

Also in the demo alex stated there was a bunch of content that wasnt used

blazing relic
ripe berry
safe charm
#

The oven

#

I guess he meant

snow mauve
blazing relic
#

Secret neighbor got lore?

snow mauve
#

Yes

#

It was all

#

The kids imagination

#

The end

ripe berry
snow mauve
#

And that's not a joke btw

safe charm
#

In AS lore i think its real

blazing relic
#

So the kids were just playing with eachother

ripe berry
snow mauve
#

But also ig making a plan to break into Mr. Peterson's house

#

Since it's before HNVR

#

Actually happened

blazing relic
ripe berry
#

(Image of the man)

blazing relic
teal imp
safe charm
#

So its clear old lore isnt scrapped

ripe berry
teal imp
#

they replace a perfectly good lore with something else

#

I miss book lore

snow mauve
ripe berry
safe charm
#

Sn

ripe berry
safe charm
#

Has old lore

blazing relic
safe charm
#

In it

ripe berry
ripe berry
blazing relic
snow mauve
safe charm
#

In my opinion

snow mauve
ripe berry
blazing relic
snow mauve
# snow mauve So?

AS is just 4 kids going into a act 3 house just to save their "friend"

ripe berry
#

It's not canon anyways so it's not like it really matters to the lore

blazing relic
#

But when he did it to Beatrix it just ain’t even funny bro

#

Or whatever her name is

#

Woman hg character

ripe berry
#

Quentin is the goofy, Beatrix ain't

snow mauve
teal imp
blazing relic
ripe berry
#

(and yes her name is in-fact Beatrix BeatrixOMG)

teal imp
safe charm
#

Anyways hnvr story is awesome problaby best story in a hn game next to hide and seek

blazing relic
#

Yo they should make mr Peterson a part of the rescue squad 🔥🔥
