Feels odd

#

The decor and such in HN1 was…interesting to the least.

ripe berry
#

My guess is possibly that this was where the Car Crash that killed Diane was originally intended to happen at

#

and in Act 2 it also seems to be missing but it's hard to tell when you can hardly see over the Fences

#

HN1 is probably the game that paid the most attention to the little details

#

Like Act 3 is ~20 years after Act 1, right?

#

and you can see Ted in the City in Act 3

#

Well you know what the least amount of jail time you would get for kidnapping is? 20 Years.

#

or that they bothered to actually write out a entire eviction notice on the eviciton notice seen for like 15 seconds in Act 3

#

and they turned it into Wayron Croobian

#

Or the Giant Neighbor making distorted Aaron Screams could be seen as a hint that Ted staged the Act 1 intro

worthy temple
#

Lol

#

Oh Hello there, welcome to Hello Neighbor Games!

lapis sonnet
#

it is bc the books and HG were made to be directly accurate

#

i know the hn2 and AS map is diff bc its another timeline

snow mauve
#

No way it's the dude again

#

hello

lapis sonnet
#

hi

lapis sonnet
#

pretty much the only stuff from old lore that keep the RB layout and nickys house the same is the books, hn1 and maybe SN

shell gull
#

That comment is inaccurate when you take in consideration the fact that the Book G.A.A.P. And HG G.A.A.P. Are way different, so yeah Gameplay is just not canon, and the HN2 Map isn’t different because of timelines it’s just different because they couldn’t get a good map, and also because there’s no way to make something one to one accurate anyways so they just have been making their own versions.

#

Is this real?

#

Or just a mod?

lapis sonnet
#

everything wouldve felt way more connected

ripe berry
#

It is real

#

It's hard to see the Act 1 Incident in-game but you can see that it's there

#

(Especially if you use mods to go out of bounds)

ripe berry
# ripe berry It's hard to see the Act 1 Incident in-game but you can see that it's there

I myself didn't trust that it was there when I first heard about it so I fact-checked it on my Xbox and although hard to make-out if you go right against the invisible wall behind the Starting Spawn (should've specified that and not just the normal Act 1 Spawn, it's where you start the game not where you end up if Ted catches you) you can see it is in-fact there

#

Also if you're wondering how I got the image the Incident is on the Russian Wiki's page for Raven Brooks so I'm using that image as I can't find any other images of the incident

#

and I know it's the Russian wiki it may not always be accurate but that's why I fact-checked it

#

Guys i might have found something that could be involved with the lore in hello neighbor 2. By Quentins bed on the right side in a box there is a revese button for the tape recorder

topaz viper
#

oh ok

silver vine
#

I never agree with this

#

why gameplay cant be canon

#

in my book, all the gameplay elements are canon

#

everything is canon

#

are you sure hes a demon?

unkempt sleet
#

I think Guest is not a demon...
I think he might be a Guest

wicked heath
#

Book 3 would like to speak to you

safe charm
#

Demon only exist now

wicked heath
#

demon will exist once the guest dies

teal imp
silver vine
#

tied to the cult doesnt mean hes a demon

teal imp
#

Its pretty likely seeing how the old tapes had the cult literally summon him

silver vine
#

are we sure it was the cult summoning him

teal imp
#

What else can it be?

unkempt sleet
#

Its just chanting and Guest getting angry noises

silver vine
#

exactly

unkempt sleet
#

Maybe he was getting angry at the ritual

#

We dont know

silver vine
#

it isnt 100% confirmed its a demon

#

Idk why everyone came to that conclusion

unkempt sleet
#

Everyone loves to theorize and takes those theories as facts

silver vine
#

true

shell gull
#

@silver vine @wicked heath, I don’t know why this discussion got brought back up since this was finished a while ago, but if Gameplay Is Canon, that means every version of Nicky’s house is somehow canon together, every HN game map layout is canon, every G.A.A.P. Version is canon, HN2 and HN1s map are canon, Act 2 would then be Canon entirely, same with Act 3, any layout in any HN game is now simultaneously canon, and ETC, I don’t get why this was even brought back up, Story and Lore Exploration (something of actual Lore Value that works) of sorts are Canon, but Gameplay isn’t, that was the only good way to fix issues and still have story and Lore make sense, so Book 3 still works fine, recently random thing just start randomly getting questioned again and it’s getting really annoying now.

silver vine
#

its annoying to you

#

we never came to that conclusion

#

you came to the conclusion

shell gull
# unkempt sleet Everyone loves to theorize and takes those theories as facts

I don’t get why everyone is treating stuff automatically true and blaming the creators of the theories as responsible, literally not once have I stated that The Guest was in fact a demon, I’ve only referred and was the only good way to explain The Guest in AS, and fix plot holes in the game, same with E.O.M. It’s not a fact but we are 90% sure is, now currently people are starting to twist stuff that was already suspected right, and I still stand by the original belief as of now, I could be entirely wrong, but I still believe The Guest has some sort of Cult value.

shell gull
#

Sure

silver vine
#

yeah yeah

#

you laugh

#

you cant change my mind

#

eveyrthing is canon

#

ahahhaahah

#

now I laugh

wicked heath
#

Bro says lore is wrong bc its annoying

#

Yes it is annoying, deal with it

shell gull
#

Literally anyone I’ve talked to in the past month, that are some of the few who I enjoy doing lore, have agreed, anyways If Gameplay is Canon, explain literally ANYTHING in the games.

# silver vine according to me (pls dont kill me sh1mp)

I’m not disagreeing with anything, but you can’t say Gameplay is entirely canon, cuz whoever told you that is on something, explain the constant town changes, explain layout changes, explain changes if literally anything in the games, Gameplay isn’t Canon, we’ve known that for a while, wth are we even talking about this again, goddamn whys everyone gotta twist shit so much.

This is me literally any time someone try’s to argue in Lore discussion

wicked heath

As much as I like this character to a point of impersonating him, as far as I remember, Enzo is actually an absolute wannabe

unkempt sleet

I dont know why you guys treat characters as different characters in different media

He wanted to be cool or smth like that.

Enzo in the books: Touch my sister, and you're adopted.
Enzo in the games: jumps out of a window for no reason at all

silver vine
# shell gull I’m not disagreeing with anything, but you can’t say Gameplay is entirely canon,...

to the gameplay thing, ever since the beginning, I've always felt that the gameplay is canon, everything we do in the game is canon to us, but it doesnt matter in the broader story, the fact that the last chapter of book 3 is literally just a walkthrough guide of act 1 just solidified my belief that the gameplay is canon, afterall, why would it not be canon, its a major part of the game, gameplay is what makes the game enjoyable, why should it not be canon? I know that some things dont make sense, but, does it have to? this is just a video game, gameplay doesnt have to make sense, you cant say gameplay isnt canon cuz it doesnt make sense

# silver vine to the gameplay thing, ever since the beginning, I've always felt that the gamep...

Ok sure yes, but times change just like how AS came, and now as new Lore comes and the story grew, and AUs grow, certain things can no longer line up, such as constant Layout changes that don’t fit descriptions, such as the G.A.A.P. Or the town itself, so much changes and really you can only trust the Major Lore gameplay, via that’s why a while back some people such as myself agreed that Lore isn’t Canon.

unkempt sleet
#

To me it doesnt matter whats canon or whats not
You can believe whatever you want

shell gull
silver vine
#

according to me, everything is its own unique story

#

some are tied to somethings, while some are not

It’s a big thing we covered

Anyways

unkempt sleet
#

Oh, Guest being born from emotion theory thingy

safe charm
#

Btw so do you think guest will have some sort of origin

silver vine
shell gull
safe charm
#

Or will he just be not explained

silver vine
#

this is a video game franchise

#

if every game has the same layout, how will it be interesting

unkempt sleet
shell gull
#

That’s the problem

silver vine
#

thats why they keep changing the layout

shell gull
unkempt sleet
#

True actually

#

Does that mean Peterson house doesnt have an interior in canon...

shell gull
silver vine
#

yes!

unkempt sleet
#

Its just a box that looks like a house

#

No inside

shell gull
silver vine
unkempt sleet
#

:0

shell gull
#

Anyways I gotta go

silver vine
#

cuz in both AS and books, Nicky mentions that the layout of the house keeps changing

shell gull
#

See ya guys

silver vine
#

ok bye

unkempt sleet
#

Anyways Hello Lore

#

So great, right?

snow mauve
#

it do be mixed

snow mauve

#

the only issue is hn2 just not even trying to work with the other games

manic dirge
ripe berry
#

Yeah at this point Layout changes makes the Books non-canon, and it's almost never addressed how the house changes layout

#

Like if you care so much about layout discard the Layouts from the books aswell

#

I just use HN2 as the canon house layout as it has the least contradictions to other pieces of media

#

Ted, Aaron, and Mya still have their own rooms

#

The Tool area still exists

#

The Kitchen has a door that leads outside

#

The first floor is mostly consistent with HN1's layout

#

Basement I just use this as the "canon" layout as we don't know how much of the HNVR Basement is real but I'm using how much is seen before Guest World Skybox can be seen as a reference point (I colorcoded each of the rooms but I didn't have enough space to copy the Color-codes into the actual finalized combined map

#

but yeah at this point Layout changes make books non-canon

#

not to mention the AS Lore through the power of cartoon logic contradicts it's own exteriors

#

Does that make AS non-canon to itself?

shell gull
shell gull
ripe berry
#

Trinity's Room has a impossible window

#

Stuff like that

#

GAAP's existence on a map in a HN Game relies on how big the map is and where the map is in the town

#

In HN1 the GAAP is barely cut off

#

in SN the GAAP is there because it's imagination so they could shift it however they wanted to

#

in HG we're at the GAAP

#

in HNHS you can't even look in the direction the GAAP should be in based off the HN1/HG Map to see if it's there

#

in HND I don't remember if we see the GAAP but I don't think we do due to how far it is compared to other locales we can see

#

in HN2 the map is small enough it gets cut off even tho we know where it should be in the map

#

but does that mean these maps are/aren't canon? depends

#

I personally view a mix of what HN1 and the Books tell us as canon

#

With adding new locales based off where they're likely are in the HN1 map like Otto's House is near the lake or the Mayor's House is by that Park Bench in the HN1 Map behind the player's house

shell gull
# ripe berry in HNHS you can't even look in the direction the GAAP should be in based off the...

Yeah but when you take in the fact that nothing is consistent, for example HE which is apart of Old Lore AU have different versions of the G.A.A.P. And if this is just constant retcon, I doubt, sure yeah certain layouts are Canon as they are reused, but not always, so I’d say sure things can be considered Canon, but if that retcons the source material it works but if it’s just constant retcon change, I doubt, they have to keep it non consistent to allow for the game to be different, via meaning certain parts would just have to be retconned over and over again, but there are things that can’t be considered Canon, for Example RB itself in each game.

ripe berry
#

Yeah I personally think the only reason the HN2 Map isn't accurate to the HN1 Map is because they cut the open world for instance

#

I mean they even bothered to make the HN2 Beta Map consistent

shell gull
shell gull
#

Technically

#

The world is an Open Zone

ripe berry
#

HGP Map is accurate to the Books GAAP Layout

shell gull
#

Ig kinda

#

There are parts that are random.

ripe berry
#

Where do all the new rides exist on the GAAP's Map? Same direction they do in the Game just not in the exact position as in-game

#

(in HG Alpha 1's Case I use the Ferris Wheel as a reference to where they should be)

shell gull
ripe berry
#

Like you can pin-point where something should be and you'll find something similar there in most cases (or just find a Carnival Tent)

#

and pretty much every time the GAAP Appears outside the Books they put a Guest Statue

#

in the (also accurately layed out) SN Map 5 it's on top of where Glider Falls should be

#

in HGA1 it's at the top of the Mountain by Mayak

#

in HE it's at the park's entrance

I was re reading reset day and I got to the part with Maritsa, Enzo is missing but also wanted by the police for letting someone into town during testing, could that be Nicky? we have no idea how long the time loop has been going on for, and reset day does take place after act 3

Like we have 3 games and the story in these games is the same and it is in the same time in the same place but just changed a little bit

manic dirge
blazing blaze
#

Bro HN1 HN2 HNVR the story in this games is the same it takes place in the same place and in the same time

wicked heath
#

HN1 Act 1 is the direct prequel to the VR game and HN2 is its direct sequel

wicked heath
#

Plus 9 early builds available

shell gull
#

Another thing I wanted to clear up is, HNVR is AS or HN2 is Old Lore, No, let’s start off with the bases, if HN2 is Old Lore or either HNVR is AS, that would create plot holes everywhere, especially with character like The Guest assuming E.O.M. (Entity Of Manifestation) Is right when it comes to the character (Most Likely is), that’s right off the start for HN2 leading up to Chapter 2, now like stated before HN2 has some evidence on both side pointing the game being either Lores (Mostly because they are tenants or placeholders from Old HN2, which is Pre-AS Takeover), so let’s look at the lead up to the game A.K.A. VR, If HNVR is AS and Ted dragged Aaron, that would create more plot holes, first off, Ted was manipulated and wouldn’t have been there so that would’ve created a massive Plot Hole in between those segments, Second how would Ted drag Aaron into The Nest, let’s say they were already in The Nest, it still wouldn’t work, because how did they get out then? So that would be another Plot Hole In between the Segments of that end scene and the beginning of HN2, and also along with the things Alex spoiled such as Nicky instead saving Aaron and ETC, HNVR is definitely Old Lore, and HN2 is AS, there would also be Mini Plot Hole problems missing such as Ted being Sleep Deprived or the Hurricane (Seen in SN) which could possibly happened in the game with the Background House parkour being renovations along with “The Guest is Coming Teaser” but even then that’s just a single Plot Hole being fixed out of the many, anyways I hope soon people can stop doing the “Changing/Not believing the obvious” (Or how I like to say it: “Starting at Rick and Calking it something else”), when it comes to the Lore of both AS AU and Old Lore AU, also it’s pretty much impossible to fix any Plot Holes if either one of the games were the opposite AU, people can believe what they can, but you can’t argue something that’s obvious or fact.

What does that even mean though? AU?

unkempt sleet
#

SN is an imaginary plan to save Nicky so it's somewhere between HN1 Act 1 and Act 2

brisk urchin
#

There are 2 universes??? How does that even make sense???

unkempt sleet
#

It doesnt, dont think too much about it

brisk urchin
#

So the hello neighbor franchise is 2 separate stories

#

Yeah I don’t plan on thinking about it.

unkempt sleet
#

Cool

brisk urchin
#

Anyway I’m just glad they brought back the glow items in Secret Neighbor, since those things look cool

#

Imagine if they made blue versions too? Or even Red ones?

#

Also when are they going to add skins to butcher, ghost and guest?

#

And when is welcome to Raven brooks finally going to be released???

unkempt sleet

#

Oh ok

We dont know who or why though

sage obsidian
brisk urchin
#

Bro imagine if Nicky decides to show up lol

unkempt sleet
#

Its possible
They might change the story a bit if that happens

brisk urchin
#

Isn’t it an alternate universe though???

#

Wait a minute

unkempt sleet
#

No, the current SN is just an imaginary plan the Rescue Squad is making to save Nicky

brisk urchin
#

There’s one kid in welcome to Raven brooks who we never see

unkempt sleet
#

The Alternate Universe stuff is a whole another subject. If youre not too deep into the lore, i wouldnt recommendthinking about it

brisk urchin
#

I think he was only in the pilot tho

unkempt sleet
#

You mean Aaron? Or somebody else

brisk urchin
#

Lemme find the image

unkempt sleet
#

Okay

brisk urchin
unkempt sleet
#

Yea i think that was supposed to be Aaron

brisk urchin
#

The shoes are similar, but in no images does it show Aaron wearing any long sleeved shirts

unkempt sleet
#

Yea, its weird

brisk urchin
#

He always wears this beige-ish t shirt

unkempt sleet
#

Yea

#

Anyway, Pilot isnt canon so it doesnt matter too much

brisk urchin
#

Still tho it’s worth noting that the new kid is likely someone brand new

unkempt sleet
#

We'll see

brisk urchin
#

After all Nicky might be a bit obvious of a character

#

Furthermore in terms of a game design standpoint, Nicky’s outfit is far too basic for SN standards

brisk urchin
# unkempt sleet We'll see

All SN characters consist of an upper body item (Shirt, Coat, Sweater etc) A lower body item (Pants, shoes, knee pads for brave) a head item (Glasses, Goggles, Hats) and an accessory that typically displays a character’s special abilities in some way (Baseball bat for brave, Backback for bagger, or tools for inventor. Nicky’s outfit has nothing that could be considered an accessory bc he just has shorts, a shirt and goggles.

unkempt sleet
#

They can add an accesory, its not so hard

brisk urchin
#

I guess, but still though it appears that he was never intended to be an SN character.

#

Btw where did you find out about the new kid coming the next update???

unkempt sleet
#

I dont remember tbh

brisk urchin
#

Was it a sort of YouTube video or a dev blog

unkempt sleet
#

It could be one of the SN videos idk

brisk urchin
#

One last question: Will SN Xbox ever get map 6 or the level editor?

sage obsidian
#

Nothing has map-6 yet because its not a thing either it should be, level editor for xbox will be hard to do but they might

brisk urchin
#

Oh I’m pretty sure I remember some sort of pumpkin themed house but that was probably just level editor as well

People have the idea of a really fleshed out timeline an a cohesive story when talking about the relation of the books and the games

#

But the books and the games have many inconsistencies

shell gull
#

And Canon is Flexible as said by Alex

#

Which is the only reasonable thing he’s said

steady nest
#

Yea

#

So the books were never really meant to tie into the games directly

#

Maybe book 7 is idk

shell gull
steady nest
#

Yea maybe

#

Ig you can say the books fit with hn1 but it gets pretty confusing with sn since half of the kids in sn are not jn the books

teal imp
teal imp
teal imp
#

the entirety of hn1 can be considered non canon

steady nest
#

Hn1 didn't happen in as yet

#

We're at ep 2

teal imp
#

alex spoiled half of the show

#

Nicky doesnt even get into the basement before he is caught

#

and for some reason he has a paperbag on his head during ep 6

steady nest
#

Maybe the teasers are misleading

teal imp
#

also him Saving aaron contradicts hn1 and hnvr

teal imp
steady nest
teal imp
steady nest
#

The same thing happen in ep1

teal imp
#

Nicky escaped

steady nest
#

Ted trapped nicky in that room by closing the window

#

Maybe nicky escaped again or something

teal imp
#

in this teaser he is litterally caught nowhere to go

teal imp
steady nest
#

He was in ep1 too

teal imp
#

I mean breathing distance

steady nest
#

Maybe it was a scene made to make tension

#

I dont think nicky will actually get caught into the basement like that

teal imp
#

what tension? the way its executed in the teaser looks dumb

steady nest
#

Maybe ted will throw him out of the house like he did in hn1

unkempt sleet
#

Why dont we all wait for the episode to come out

#

instead of going all through with just the teasers

steady nest
#

Idea is we dont know what happened

teal imp
steady nest
#

We cant say the as fully "breaks" the lore

unkempt sleet
#

Nicky no

steady nest
#

Weve only watched 2 episodes

unkempt sleet
#

Also Nicky is using the glasses

steady nest
#

We dont know whats gonna happen

unkempt sleet
#

nice

#

Is he trying to pick the lock

teal imp
teal imp
steady nest
#

First half of the show

teal imp
unkempt sleet
#

How does the Kids get to Nicky

teal imp
#

ep 4 is when nicky gets captured

unkempt sleet
#

and how do they escape

steady nest
#

Mayak is the finale

teal imp
#

mayak is ep 7 pretty sure

steady nest
#

Thats not really a major plot point

unkempt sleet
#

What's the purpose of Mayak. What's Guest doing in the show. Why Theodore visits Mayor

teal imp
#

theres a timeskip and whole therapy episode (I wish it was a joke but alex is actually doint that)

unkempt sleet
#

So many unanswered questions

unkempt sleet
#

It was always a plot device

teal imp
#

nothing else

teal imp
steady nest
#

"Mayak explains everything"

#

But its good when nikita says it

unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

yay more filler!

unkempt sleet
#

Good

steady nest
#

Have you watched the episode

unkempt sleet
#

No fillers! We must have all lore

steady nest
#

I mean the episodes only have about 10 minutes

#

Stuff will happen quicker

#

I dont thinks theres really time for a filler episode

teal imp
#

nothing happens in ep 2

unkempt sleet
#

I dont think something big happening every episode is a good thing tbh

unkempt sleet
#

Oh no episode 2 is a filler... thats so bad man

teal imp
unkempt sleet
#

duh

steady nest
#

Ep2 is setting the stage

#

But that doesn't mean ep4 will be a filler

teal imp
#

episode 2 is the worst so far its boring and it ends the moment something interesting is happening

thin wadi
steady nest
unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

Also look at the animation and writing you can tell how little effort they are putting into this

thin wadi
unkempt sleet
#

I'm sorry but animation is decent. It can be rough sometimes but overall it doesnt look so bad. I dont know why people are so insistent on that

steady nest
#

The animation aint that bad

teal imp
teal imp
#

the animation is one of the cheapest things Ive seen

steady nest
#

The show rn doesn't offer much since there are only 2 episodes

unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

especially when the characters run

unkempt sleet
#

run cycles are hard. The AS runs arent that bad

teal imp
steady nest
#

The animation its pretty smooth

teal imp
unkempt sleet
steady nest
#

Like the chase scene in ep 1 was pretty well made

unkempt sleet
#

Yea that was cool

#

I liked when Ted turns around the corner running

steady nest
#

Im not saying that everyone should like the as, im just saying that it doesn't make sense to hate a show by only watching 2 episodes

teal imp
#

I hate how they made Ted just grunt he hasnt even said a word in the AS (Trinity`s dream doesnt count)

steady nest
#

The first 2 episodes are just setting the stage

unkempt sleet
steady nest
unkempt sleet
#

he will

teal imp
unkempt sleet
#

It's not end of the world though

steady nest
#

It didn't make the lore messier

teal imp
steady nest
#

Quite the contrary

teal imp
unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

hnvr and hn2 dont even match eachother at all because hn2 was changed to fit the AS

steady nest
teal imp
#

hn1 is retconned if we look at the teasers

steady nest
#

To begin with

teal imp
#

Trinity litterally lives where Nicky`s house should be in the AS

steady nest
#

Out of

#

18

teal imp
#

they contradict shit

unkempt sleet
#

you dont know the context of the teasers

teal imp
#

also hn1 is meant to take place in the 90s while the AS has smartphones

steady nest
#

The teasers are teasers, they dont reveal big stuff and they dont have context

unkempt sleet
#

Like for example the Ted in a jail teaser. I thought he was actually in jail, until someone pointed out that it can be a scene where kids are imagining him in jail

steady nest
#

I cant just look at a gif and assume the whole show is bad, because my assumption of what happened in that teaser presents a story i dont like

#

It doesnt make sense

unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

All the teasers so far dissapointed me

steady nest
teal imp
#

especially the act 3 house...

teal imp
#

Also I hate how they addad smartphones

unkempt sleet
#

i love this

teal imp
safe charm
#

Is a dream lol

teal imp
#

just for it be only in the AS

unkempt sleet
#

looking at the negative sides like always

steady nest
safe charm
#

Maybe its not actually them going inside his house

teal imp
#

if I have to give AS credit for something is that the houses and buildings can look nice

unkempt sleet
#

I want Mayak. I dont care if its in AS or HN2 literally

steady nest
unkempt sleet
#

And i will get Mayak

#

in AS

#

peak

safe charm
#

Did alex ever say he actually scraped the lore

unkempt sleet
safe charm
#

Like i have never heard him say it

teal imp
safe charm
#

Outright

unkempt sleet
#

he says AS will tie the lore together iirc

teal imp
#

the 90s tvs the phones the milk expiration date

steady nest
teal imp
#

the one thing that was kept consistent about hn1 in its development is that it took place in the 90s

teal imp
#

the tvs are from the 90s

steady nest
#

Not really

teal imp
#

the phones too

steady nest
#

Theres no calendar

teal imp
#

the milk expiration date is 1997

steady nest
#

Wait really

teal imp
#

yes

steady nest
#

I didn't know that

unkempt sleet
#

I love looking at milk cartons for lore

safe charm
#

Just hope they didnt change the guest though

teal imp
#

in hn2 theres a sign saying its in 1996 (mayor goes to a boat contest)

unkempt sleet
steady nest
#

I mean the timejump is just something the writers felt appropriate for their story. Its their right to do that

teal imp
unkempt sleet
safe charm
#

In 1.5

#

He crawled

#

In the intro

teal imp
steady nest
#

And it doesnt really chabge much

teal imp
#

now theres 90s tech in modern times for no reason

steady nest
#

You can play hn1 without knowing it takes place in the 90s

#

The years arent important

unkempt sleet
#

dates are always inconsistent anyways.

teal imp
#

I always liked the story taking place in the 90s it felt like most of the story already happend and we had to pick up the pieces

now act 3 is in the future....

My timelines are always "this happened before that. this happened after that"

safe charm
#

Im the mimic

steady nest
#

If you wanna hate the show for doing that

unkempt sleet
#

i dont look at the years

steady nest
#

Then

#

Ok

teal imp
#

also it pisses me off beyond belief that they finally had the chance to give Delroy and Finch something to do only for them to sideline them

snow mauve
#

Try harder

steady nest
unkempt sleet
#

like the books

safe charm
#

There my perfect impresion

teal imp
#

they dont even break into the house in the AS (we cant see them in teasers and the poster excludes them)

#

they are present in hnvr....

teal imp
steady nest
#

Derloy is in some teasers i believe

teal imp
#

and they are absent in promotional stuff

steady nest
teal imp
#

alex made a thing for the characters and they were absent

unkempt sleet
#

oh wait you mean delroy and finhc

safe charm
#

Is it weird i really wanna see the episodes

teal imp
unkempt sleet
#

yea they dont exist like always

snow mauve
unkempt sleet
#

they exist in games but not other media

#

like always

teal imp
#

@steady nest

steady nest
#

The milk of lore

teal imp
#

I genuinely hope they dont carry over the AS date

safe charm
#

What is the worst

#

Thing about that lol

steady nest
#

I get the decades part but i dont think this is a reason to have the as

safe charm
#

Its just means there can be newer

#

Tech

#

In the world

unkempt sleet
#

I love Hello Lore

steady nest
#

Ok so

#

Hear me out

teal imp
steady nest
#

What if the neighbors parents

steady nest
#

That they invented technology beyond their time

unkempt sleet
#

Adelle and Roger Peterson were geniuses yea

teal imp
teal imp
steady nest
#

Wasnt hn2 made to match the "new lore"

teal imp
#

which is such a dumb retcon

#

we dont need smartphones or the word "cringe" in the AS

unkempt sleet
#

he also said this

safe charm
teal imp
steady nest
#

Did alex say that

teal imp
safe charm
#

From the books

unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

1984 safe code is the date of bosco bay stuff

steady nest
#

It isn't that clear to me

unkempt sleet
steady nest
safe charm
#

That’s what I’m saying

teal imp
#

the writing in the first 2 episodes is so awful that I dont have faith in the AS

steady nest
#

Shouldn't have they make the game align eith the as 2 years ago aswell

#

If of course thats what happened

#

Which i doubt

teal imp
#

AS was meant to follow the books but then they fired Carly and scrapped the books entirely

The beta could very well be connected as well

ripe berry
teal imp
unkempt sleet
#

I dont know what that means

#

but ok

steady nest
safe charm
#

I wish Alex would just explain the canon to us lol

#

Like what is canon or not

teal imp
safe charm
#

Because until that happens this chat will be hell

snow mauve
unkempt sleet
#

I dont think Alex will talk here for a long time

safe charm
teal imp
#

he just pissed people off

unkempt sleet
safe charm
#

After last time

snow mauve
steady nest
#

I think most of the hate for the animated series started at hn2s launch: after the bad launch of the game, people were looking for someone to throw their anger at. The animated series writers and alex were good for that

unkempt sleet
teal imp
teal imp
#

he would only talk about the AS

#

make up bad lies

unkempt sleet
#

Yea, i remember the teaser time

teal imp
#

and change the subject when someone asked something he didnt like

unkempt sleet
#

and he sent the new HN2 jumpscares

#

we got so excited

safe charm
#

Well there was a chance he wouldn’t and sometimes

unkempt sleet
#

good times

safe charm
#

He spoke about hn2

teal imp
teal imp
unkempt sleet
snow mauve
#

Man at least we got them

steady nest
ripe berry
#

and this convo is my cue to leave the chat

unkempt sleet
#

why are you always changing the subject to be negative all the time

teal imp
safe charm
#

Chat

steady nest
teal imp
unkempt sleet
#

i say "yea this happened, it was good" and you say " no actually something else was worse, why did they do that"

unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

I dislike alex for all the times he has lied and made dumb decisions regarding the lore?

unkempt sleet
#

i was positive, you turned it into negative

safe charm
#

You know what I just simply don’t care about talking lore at this point

snow mauve
teal imp
unkempt sleet
wicked heath
#

Alex forgetting he aint a writer, yet still tries to make up his own lore

teal imp
#

I was asking why would they make something only to not have it at launch? they even had the new updated jumpscares in the launch trailer for some reason

unkempt sleet
#

Well they are here now

snow mauve
unkempt sleet
#

thats what i care about

snow mauve
#

Like the game really needed more time

safe charm
teal imp
steady nest
teal imp
#

like he seriously cannot be this clueless

wicked heath
#

Uhh idk... The Inventor working for the Neighbor????

unkempt sleet
safe charm
#

I don’t dislike hn lore at all I’m just too confused at the moment

#

To even think about it

ripe berry
unkempt sleet
ripe berry
#

at least with Old Lore

steady nest
teal imp
safe charm
#

Crazy right

snow mauve
#

How?

ripe berry
teal imp
wicked heath
#

At this point, the Neighbor can pull out an Infinity Stone out of a Ferris Wheel and I wouldnt be surprised at all

ripe berry
#

I am ok with the AS existing but I'm not going to call it the main Canon

teal imp
#

I wouldnt be surprised if the neighbor became the SN ghost class instead of being possesed by the guest in the AS

wicked heath
#

AHHH

steady nest
wicked heath
#

NOO

unkempt sleet
#

the old lore...

snow mauve
ripe berry
unkempt sleet
#

You are not Alex

wicked heath
unkempt sleet
#

you can think on your own

unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

I was making a meme

unkempt sleet
#

this was meant to be reply to that...

teal imp

im not saying im alex

The Guest after collecting the 6 infinity souls about to change the timeline to be more favorable for it (Book Canon):

teal imp
safe charm
#

And he’s gonna use his powers to take over the world

#

He’s gonna enter the mcu as well

#

And become thanos

teal imp
#

he wants the AS to form the main pipeline for future projects which just dissapoints me beyond belief

safe charm
#

And then return and becoming guest again

ripe berry
#

The Guest on it's way to one-shot Doctor Strange:

safe charm
#

And then he enters the book universe

safe charm
#

And mixes it

snow mauve
#

How hard is that

safe charm
#

With um game universe thus

#

Um making it connect

teal imp
ripe berry
#

So at this point HN has like 5 universes

snow mauve
#

I see nothing happening yet lol

safe charm
unkempt sleet
teal imp
#

stuff will be happening

snow mauve
#

Like I'm just busy focusing on HN2

unkempt sleet
snow mauve
#

Idc about AS

ripe berry
#

HN1-HNHS, Guidebook, Books, Most other Games, HN2, AS

teal imp
snow mauve
#

Also HE fg will be out tomorrow

safe charm
teal imp
#

patch 9 will either restore my hope in hn or ruin it entirely

snow mauve
#

That's something

safe charm
#

It’s basically it’s own thing

unkempt sleet
#

Like i can say i think Guest loves pizza, and Alex can say Guest hates pizza
But its too late, for me Guest loves Pizza, nothing can change it

#

Thats the canon for me

snow mauve
ripe berry
unkempt sleet
safe charm
wicked heath
#

this guy --> Aaron

safe charm
#

The hn canon is like ennard currently

ripe berry
wicked heath
#

Aaron was the mimic

#

And they reuse the character without Cawthons permission

snow mauve
unkempt sleet
snow mauve
ripe berry
snow mauve
unkempt sleet
safe charm
unkempt sleet
#

HN2 is new lore
HNVR is old lore
But if you want, you can put it in the same timeline

#

Thats what im saying

snow mauve
snow mauve
#

Which would make hn2 canon then

snow mauve
teal imp
unkempt sleet
teal imp
ripe berry
snow mauve
#

So I now believe that's just a transition

#

For the credits

unkempt sleet
#

Doesnt matter the actual intention

ripe berry
safe charm
#

Ok here’s the timeline so Aaron gets killed by the guest mr Peterson builds a robot Aaron

unkempt sleet
safe charm
#

I solved it

snow mauve
#

I'm taking Aaron not getting dragged being canon

ripe berry
teal imp
snow mauve
unkempt sleet
#

I'll continue thinking its Theodore dragging him

snow mauve
#

Same

teal imp
#

I wish they didnt change the story so late into development..

safe charm
#

So wait could the books still be canon in some way Alex never outright said it wasn’t canon anymore

ripe berry
snow mauve
teal imp
safe charm
#

He just said it didn’t fit the animation

unkempt sleet
snow mauve
#

Ain't nobody wanna hear all that

unkempt sleet
ripe berry
teal imp
#

Isnt ted supposed to be smart?

snow mauve
#

Nah he's going insane

#

So he's the stupid

safe charm
unkempt sleet
#

Ted is acting without thinking if you didnt realized

safe charm
#

Clearly lol

ripe berry
unkempt sleet
#

He's smart, but doesnt think much and acts quickly when he's angry
