a timejump?
Nah
Nikita said there aint gonna be a time jump
So, I dont know how the guest is gonna fit into HN2
Nikita said that they are combining all the acts into one big open world
i asked every developer and they said it was imbir
And when you go to a certain place chunks of story will unfold
And you can do the storys in ANY order you want
So, its not gonna be continuos like HN1
But rather intertwined
.-.
Nikita also confirmed Guest is a stack of Imbirs being controlled by main Imbir
?
When did he say that
That's physically impossible is the thing
Cause it's not like quentin just grows up and the neighbors house falls apart in a week
I mean unless we jumped timelines or smthn
guest is deez
Deez what?

deezjuorno
cat
dog
there is no ''dog'' in Hello Neighbor
Where is the lore?
There is one in the books
you have asked what is the lore like 2412412 times now
Shush im taking a test
sure
what?
can't hear you
What do you mean by impossible?
its impossible that there isnt some form of time jump
from what we know the town is basically abandoned at some point. at least teds house and the 1.5 houses are
But how?...
I dont know what I mean
H&S?
every stage takes place a few months apart
Oh yeah
theres a calendar in the kids room that changes as the game goes on
I know, but stage 5 takes place right after 4 tho
But Nikita said that they combined all the acts into one big open world in HN2
And?
doesnt mean there cant be a time jump-
Doesn't mean there can't be time jumps
And you can do them in any order you want
If we can do them in order we want, how can there be a time jump?
theres definitely gonna be some sort of linear gameplay in the game
I doubt you'd be able to do ROTM at the very beginning
No, you wont be
meaning they can change maps
so why not do that with a time jump
How can there be time jump tho?
wdym by that
I dont know
Its not gonna be like that tho
Acts 
well we dont know what its gonna be like
we know
we dont
Lemme send it
so you're a dev of hn2? oh ok
we know nothing about fullgame other than the AI
We KINDA know
we dont
other than a couple of things like it being 8 hours long

timestamp
Its in the end of this interview
Still not a timestamp
And we have already seen this
Yeah
timestamp please
Still doesn't mean there can't be a time jump
so then why did you say it does
The way Nikita said it
:\
Makes me think HN2 is not gonna have a time jump
He says we made it like it takes place all at once
How can there be a time jump if all acts take place all at once?
I mean, there could be
why not
to start with
he didn't even mentioned hello guest
so this means he didn't said a lot of things as well
I never mentioned HG
Hmm
So, what
There should be a time jump
But my question is how is there gonna be a time jump?
...usually?
Wdym
what do YOU mean
I dont know what I mean?

I am asking that, if all acts takes place at once, how is there gonna be time jump?
because they wont take place at once
Thats what Nikita said
well if that was the case, the park wouldnt exist
You are saying he is lying to us
say that to Alex that gonna kill him for any info leaks
Alex lies
its not uncommon for people to have to lie about HN2 cause of NDA
Whats NDA?
alex said HG wasnt HN2
Alex lies
basically they have to keep info a secret or else bad stuff
I know that a long time ago
Alex is also under nda, you know
But not EVERYthing is kept secret
Hmmmmmmmmm
thats why alex used to share outdated screenshots, cause they have no effect anymore
Oh
also cause nikita prob said it was ok
I dont think Nikita is lying tho
you never know
he sent those screenshots because there was only placeholders lol
like not much to leak or something
they arent leaks
you get it
Then?
They posted on Twitter
its not a secret if it was shown officially many times
I dont get what you mean
alex shared more neighbor guest images in this server a while ago
they just confirmed that this thing is not a secret at all, and there's lots of different, more cooler secrets in the game
Okay
and it was obviously since prototype
we dont know
Why dont we know?
obviously not like hn1
but ^
cause the devs never confirmed anything
They did
not
So, he lied?
Hmmmmmmmm
It’s described as a more sandbox seamless experience, where you can go about doing different things and changing other events, it’s not linear like HN1.
whats he deal with the shadow man?
@tribal talon @tribal talon don't bother they talk like this
ok i am just helping someone correct there sentence
Really don't bother... They say strange stuff and say it in a weird way
oh fiddlesticks ok...
I'm not sure if they just have bad English ore are like this
Imbir has some kinda importance...
Imbir is the g - man of hn2
the
What matter is he you him
who did the guest costume belong to before the neighbor took it
No one knows
maybe he made it.
He made it, threw it away, and then took it back.
Fear
The deal is that he's the representation of fear.
Fear of losing a son. Fear of Mr. Peterson
Ok cool
the neighbor?
yes. Im sure the dude would make a forest protector costume out of context
That’s not how it works
I feel Peterson is trying to start a jigsaw thing... Getting more and more of the forest protectors 2.0
What's happening to the CrowMan? Is The Crow Dude Gonna dissapear in hello neighbor 2 2.0? Was the Mr. Peterson AI Trailer a Joke?
No
what 
there is no 2.0
its just a different section of the game
as for the AI trailer no it was showing off the new AI system
probably not

ok...?
the trailer wasnt for alpha 2 specifically, it was just explaining how the AI works
nothing here says alpha 2 will be on xbox, but id be cool if it were
also why is this in #lore-discussion 
Do you not see the XBOX LOGO
What does that have to do with anything
that was on the Announcement Trailer for HN 2
Crow man IS Mr.Peterson
that's for the full game 
the ai trailer and the announcement trailer are all referring to the full game
honestly it's really unlikely but if it did happen I think I'd have a mini heart attack lmao🤣
the xbox logo is on like every HN 2 video
i never saw the version from the announcement trailer on xbox
He probably meant alpha 2
This is lore discussion, Xbox isn’t lore lol
yes
Are Xboxs canon?
(UNRELEVANT THEORY) I think the ''basement'' in Hello Neighbor Alpha 1 is a time machine. In the dream cutscene we see that the Neighbor is entering the basement, inside the basement we can see nature and we can hear cars and then BOOM a car crashes. This car is probably the Neighbors car when he and his wife crashed. I know that this theory might sound crazy but i think that future Neighbor made the car crash.
idk
I mean, we see playstation and switch and mobile in SN. So maybe
In Alpha 1 there are 2 copies of the neighbor's house, the original one is the one you try to break in and the second one is the house where the cutscene is done, and actually there is nothing but a picture of nature and the car behind the door in that second copy of the house
So the basement didn't really exist in alpha 1
It’s the actual game vs lore
Are marshmallows canon?
should be
You are right that the car crashes in Alpha 1, but the door seems to lead outside instead of go to a basement
But the Alphas are not canon anyways because when you try to go past the door the Neighbor just gets you and buries you alive
and thats why i said (unrelevant theory)
it just made sense
Actually it's still a good theory
yeah
Everything is canon
no
Because it probably tried to show that the wife died in that car accident
Yes
not the alphas
No.
yeah
But you can't really know that it was the wife if you haven't played Hide and Seek really
or the full release
Yes
So the people who played the Alphas before the game was out must have had no clue what happend and what that car crash meant
yup
Interesting to see that they had that story planned since the first alpha
i think all developers does that
i got another theory
the one Neighbor buried was the daughter
In hide and seek on the end screen?
alpha 1
the only problem is this picture
yeah
I think the person the Neighbor tries to lock in the basement is his son Aaron in Alpha 2
Also fun fact: That cutscene of the Neighbor trying to catch Aaron in the bedroom to lock him in the basement is funny because Aaron is actually nothing but a mannequin in Alpha 2
I paused the cutscene and flew inside bedroom and saw it
Using console commands
Yea
I want Dynamic Pixels to remake HN1, since it’s outdated.
No. It’s Mr. Peterson causing a pole to hit our car.
I think they are going to expand the game, but they might not fully remake it but they mentioned in a video that a content expansion is coming to HN 1

oh
Ah yes the unlisted video
how long has this existed
week games, 
it was too exaggerated
hn 2 where is it located?
raven brooks 
wayron croobs
croobs wayron
At the end of hn 1, Nicky stays to live in Raven Brooks, right? Or am I wrong, if I am correct, Nicky came to realize that the neighbor returned to Raven Brooks?
he lived in a town and return to Raven Brooks
yes, but in the end of hn he still living on raven brooks?
i guess, yes
Yes
Is amogus canon?
What is canon?
It's about the timeline and other stuff in a certain universe... we're in the Hello Neighbor universe, I don't know I'm not a lore doctor
Not in real life
Don't know
I think amogus is canon
i have no idea what is cannon
Everything is canon
funni joke but no
Oh yeah? What disproves amogus being canon
cuz its amogus
Amogus
yeah i mean amogus is not lore
So amogu is not canon?
probably not
Okay
Do rituals
they are frauds
Sad to say Alpha 1 or any alphas or betas are not canon
thats why i said (unrelevant theory)
So the timeline is this
Bosco Bay
Bad Blood
Grave Mistakes
Puzzle Master
Missing Pieces & Hide & Seek
Waking Nightmare
Buried Secrets/Act 1
Secret Neighbor
Act 2
HN2
Reset Day
Act 3 and Finale
Correct?
I mean, act 4 is finale
Makes sense
No H&S. 😔
Oops
i dont think so
ah why did i start typing its fricking 1 am im sleeping
Idk but in my theory in secret neighbor when you catch a kid you see there face turn into a mannequin face so my theory is that the mannequins are kids that are grown up mannequins
SN is not cannon
it is, but not how you think
rocket event proves that sn is their imagination
they imagined it, but them imagining it is cannon
yeah
So what’s going on with hn2? Police get on Peterson’s tail so he sneaks off last minute and hides in a different house?
The house is an abandoned old museum that Mr. Peterson is using as a house. One of his biggest focuses seems to be his car, trying to fix it up for unknown reasons. The police guard the Peterson house, not wanting anyone snooping around. Quentin is trying to do something with the pipes in the house (based on the trailer).
hi
Is the car that Quentin almost crashes into shown in the trailer?
Alright yeah Quentin almost crashes into mr Peterson, so maybe Peterson swerves away and crashes at the old museum. Then he’s trying to repair his car?
I’m guessing not, because it’s just a little part of the trailer. He is also leaving Raven Brooks in the trailer for some reason, but again it’s just a trailer, so won‘t mean much.
cAsTAwAy
stop
i have an idea that in hn2 the neighbor moves houses a lot so in the beginning he is in the abandon museum fixing his car then he goes to the red house and so on so forth
so after a few days in the meseum he goes to the red house thats probably abandoned
Yes
I told you they are robots created by the neighbor
Hm
Isnt nicky still missing when quentin came? That means its before act 2
No, its after Act 2
They cant take away the posters in an instant
Nicky escaped, and he was the one who called the cops, who showed up to the neighbor's house
Hmm that makes sense.
And neighbor was in the house in act 2
Also true.
Whereas he isnt in his house in HN2
Did the neighbor bring aaron with him in hn2?
Hmm why didnt quentin just calling the police when he saw mister peterson...but eh its hello neighbor logic. Nicky didnt call em either
Nicky called him
I mean in the start of hn1
He called cops before HN1
Oh. That makes sense.
But why doesnt quentin call them?
Maybe
Or he wanted to do research himself
Since hes from the press. Finding out whats going on would make good money.
Maybe when he called them he left
Now we know he has atleast 3 houses
He could have more
It could be the case
It would be cool if we could explore a ton of the neighbors houses
Like when he drives with the car, he goes to the other houses and we need to follow him
But they don’t move, aside from the one in the ride. But it had strings (I think)
No, book 3 says they can do work
I wonder if nicky will play an important role in hn2. Like lore wise.
He will be in HN2
Nikita said that
Nice. I think they are gonna change his model a bit tho. To fit more to the new artstyle
I hope they have Adult Nicky too.
Adult Nicky is THE Nicky for me.
He’s what comes to mind when I think of Nicky
Adult Aaron
we will never see 
😔 i see but you
cry
discord 😧
But seriously
A lot of COMMON ppl think that Quentin is grown up Aaron
A guy said this in guerrila "The player is Mr.Peters son, as they have the same face"
Peters son
a LOT of ppl think that Aaron, Nicky and Quentin are the same person
.
they have same head, and nose, that why they think
Let’s see
No.
Im not gonna lie when i first saw quentin i thought he was nickys older brother
Does Quentin live outside of Raven Brooks?
Or was he just moving to Raven Brooks in the trailer?
And why was the neighbor driving out of town at the beginning and he back in town?
I think Mr Peterson was escaping the act 1 house and heading to the Gray Manor and also Quentin probably got a call from the police to go to the house
Gray manor is inside raven brooks
Gosh all this information is just so confusing
But that might be cause I've only read books 1-3
idk
anyone here?
Me
oh hello there
Hey man
I love discussing lore
me too
I read them all lemme spoil it
Mr Peterson looks different did he go to the gym?
lo no i'm not
he looks older
Probably
alright
Maybe
please don't
im not
Yep
Oh gosh
Oh my
he lost some weight
But HN2 is after or before act 2 ?
after I think
i think after act 2
Why?
Mr. Peterson is escaping the house cause Nicky called the cops
That's make sense
I also think that hn2 could be before act 3 but after act 2
because nicky's missing posters are still up
HN2 is right after act 2
Thats what i said ._.
Yeah ik
Also how did u guys know the name of the new house?
idk people were calling it that
oh XD
I've just been kinda bored
All the other lore i cold find is in the books but I don't have the books
._.
Reset day is like my favorite
Me too ;-;
And now the spoiler chat is gone
why was it there
don't want any spoilers, so I don't read this chat as often
The spoiler chat?
yes
;-;
The Books explain what is the Guest?
for spoilers
yes reset day
Oh ok
||Mr Peterson is the Guest || if you don't wanna get spoiled don't press the black thing
Ok
Ok well I'm gonna go to bed
bye
Bye ;)
ik
Bye:)
Ok a don't go see
Spoilers
But back at the Hello Neighbor 2
Ink Neighbor Lol
The AI sounds smart
Yeah
let's hope IT IS
Yes, the HN 1 AI is really Break
Meh
they took out ALOT of the stuff he use to do
like sweep, eat
water plants
Yes
Beatrix is in the game?
Beee a tricks
Ok Beatrix is in the game, but how this place in the lore ?
idk
Someone have theories ?
nope
Yes I have lore
Beatrix hear looks like the hear fron Mya's doll
She is a female reporter looking to uncover big man Peterson’s secrets
is just a crazy theory
We don’t but assuming she’s playable it makes sense
Yeah
Hello Neighbor 2 need to explain this
Or what happen after Nick escape from Mr Peterson House
I dont think beatrix will be playable in hn2
I think quentin will stay the main protagonist throughout the whole game
Because if that werent the case there could be 2 possible lores
And multiple lores suck.
They can't just scrap a character with cutscenes and animations. Plus she is starting to be more shown like in the wishlist trailer.
.
Well
That doesn’t make sense
Especially since HN1 and The Nicky books are both seen in Nicky’s perspective
We are literally getting 2 different stories
HN1 shows Raven Brooks as a normal, everyday town.
Reset Day 
I guess the books "retcon" the first game
Nicky’s house too
In the game, it’s pretty small
The book describes it having a hallway
Yes
That’s why I’m saying the books and HN1 can’t be both canon
.
Yeah
when i look at the player in HN2 it looks like the player from the 1st game except a lot older.
It's not
But I suppose so
it's possible i guess
does this looks like Quentin to you?
other than nose shape, i dont see much ressamblances
Glasses are needed
@torpid sinew i ment for the person
.
Ehm. In one of the wanted posters in the trailer, there is a child who, in my opinion, looks a lot like Nicky as a child, do you think it is a reference?
I came to think, that maybe the game will not go after hn 1 (but I saw better and it would be a bit stupid)
U mean missing poster
And yes it’s Nicky
ye that
The poster is there cause the neighbor locked Nicky on the basement
In*
The basement
hmhm yeah i remember
And officers Leslie and Neilson are investigating
Somewhere does it specify how long it took Nicky to get out of the house?
Np
This one?
yes
its nicky
It would make sense that the game occurred in act 2-3 of hello neighboor, but there is also the possibility that it is only a reference, we will not only know when we can play the game
Oh, and there is also a poster of the daughter and son of the neighbor (Mya and Aaron)
That makes more sense, because it was probably never found out what happened to them, but the nicky poster is still there.
It was found out
They discovered Aaron was in the basement though it's not known if he was freed and it's likely they knew of Mya
Aaron didn’t want to be freed.
So?
If they sent it, say, a search and rescue team
he would be rescued regardless of choice
Do we know what happened to HN1 character between HN1 and HN2?
Bc its the same house in both games yeah?
oh nicky?
Well, if the theories are true that hn 2, it is in act 2-3 of hello neighbor 1, because most likely Nicky stayed to live in raven brooks, according to the end of hn 1 lol
its only my idea so
2 months
sad for nicky
and probably yes hn 2 its on act 2-3 of hn 1
And also HN2 takes place right after Act 2
probably yes but,
what happened to the neighbor's house
Its not probably
It is
You mean when nicky arrives back in raven brooks?
in act 3?
idk
Huh
Guess there's no one here lol
WHAT
Nikita himself said that HN2 takes place when Nicky(HN1 player) was a kid
Their names are different too
HN1 Player- Nicky Roth
HN2 Player - Quentin
quentin isn't nicky
Ok, so...
Now we have:
- Neighbor Guesters
- Not Neighbor Guesters
- Aaron Guesters (Ugh)
- Nicky Quentiners
- Not Nicky Quentiners
WOW
We actually have another
Aaron Nicky Quentinners
These ppl think than Nicky and Quentin are the same person
Neighbor's son
I met a couple of these guys at the guerrila livestream
WOW
actually
we play as young neighbor in HN 2
(confirmd)
tin buld told me
my uncle works for tini Bild
can confirm i am neighbor son
yeas
aleck nichipichi told me
excuse me ?
they put an nangry birds in the i
how many age are u for talk like this
They are just trolling
n0
it's #lore-discussion here
Don't forget Imbir Guesters 
Aaron Guesters are the same people who said The Thing was Aaron, Aaron wanted Mya to die, and thought Aaron smiled when he saw Mya fall.
Imbir Guesters are right now get over it
its cannon
Aaron is actually young Theodore, so is Quentin. Quentin is Old Aaron, who else is an old version of someone else? NFT, who is NFT? The Guest
Boom
Aaron is the Guest
Fun fact: This candy bar is made from tea and battery
Not really, could just be an Easter egg
It is
But its in the game
So, part of the lore
This makes me wanna play that speed runners game
So, Im gonna
Very clever strategy, advertising other games in HN games
I wanna see more of these
In full game
they did the same thing with Punch Club in the books
Enzo has Punch Club on his game console in the books
Oh yeah
I forgot about that
I think the crows of Raven Brooks evolved from this magnificent creature
I mean, its the dinosaur which walked in Raven Brooks
We need a name for it yo
Its not even a real dino
Fictional, just like the town of Raven Brooks
Any bright names for it?
Always has been
Its canon to the game
What, NO
The books imply that he never removes his sweater
HDHSJDBHDH
wait
was naked neighbor mentioned in the guidebook
or
No
jup
what is up with the hn1 Tv?
they are speaking english and raven brookish at the same time
it goes like
Mr. Mcclon?
yes what is it?
im mya mcjenalen and this is harry jarles from the morning crimes, im wondering what we can come in from it
hmm i am rather busy
oh
Okay, here’s what they say
“Professor Mcfarlane?”
“Yes, what is it?”
“I’m Ellison, and this is Harry Jarvis from The Morning Chronicle. I wonder if we could come in for a minute.”
“Well I am rather busy…”
so thats why it makes no sense
It ISNT
we'll see
See
The dino in HN2 has only hands
No flippers
Only the head looks like Mosasaur
Then who is it o' wise one
Why dont you go find out who it is then
It isnt real
Its a fictional DINO
Just like Raven Brooks is fictional
Hello neighbor isnt like that
It is
Mosasaurous is the closest thing
Only the head and torso looks like it
But it has hands
So, it cant be a marine animal
Parts of the skele is missing, so the tail doesnt matter
Do you think they'd just model a random dinosaur
Prob
No
Thats why I am saying it isnt even a real dino
Since when was there a QNA?
Since December
But the only parts of the skeleton retreved match the mosasaurous
Yeah
There is no legs on hn2 dino
But it has hands
And flippers arent part of the skeleton
Implying that it isnt marine
They are
Mosasaur doesnt have hands
The flippers are those small hand like things
We just need a qna
You can see them in skeleton
Ok, bye now
its a neighbosaur isnt it obvious
Neighborsaurus Rex
But the dinosaur has no mustache...
oh no
wha-
don't ping CEO, staff and devs
use #hello-neighbor for help about grappling
S
i agree
Guest is Mya
true
I just finished Reset Day; is there going to be an 8th Book?
I haven’t seen anything about it
I doubt
It seemed like the ending was leading up to an eighth one
No 8th one currently on anything anywhere
Also, should I read the graphic novels? Does it have lore? I haven’t heard much about it
the graphic novels are a bit weird
I dunno if they're canon to the main story or not but Im assuming they are
why wouldnt they be
||the ghost thing||
||or ted being completely different than he is in the books/games||
||park that wasnt mentioned anywhere previously||
do u mean Bosco Bay because it was mentioned before
in the other books?
yes
when
in book 3 or 4
I must've missed that
ted has also had parks on every continent so theres alot of parks we dont know about
thats a lotta dead kids
yup!
do his proportions remind you of a certain for trailer neighbor perhaps 
and him running from lights 
why did you spoiler tag a book from october
4
cause this person has never read the comics
bosco was his first park so he started making parks a year after aaron was born
real
bosco is in 84 and aaron was born in 83
wait
83
bite of

theodore in book 8 killing everyone in raven brooks over and over (time loop)
What ghost thing?
||at the end of Bosco bay the main character is talking to the ghost of (I think?) Her brother||
There was an orange blob outside the SN map at one point
Oh
Yeah
Who is mya
The neighbors daughter
The guest
Ok
And the main character of hide and seek
oh no
Perhaps a better question: how is mya?
Dead
Haha
Not joking
She deserved it
:(
😂
Better Question: Why is Mya?
SHE DIDNT
I already know the answer to that.
ask your health teacher
Why would I ask I question I already know?
Why?
I dont have one
Sects
then your school nurse
Ask any adult
Okay why
just nvm
Except me.
My school itself has turned into COVID health care now
Okay why should I ask them?
Im not being serious
I already to,d you why
I am tho
Why mya is
What will they REVIVE mya
lets just change the subject
Yeah
Who’s the deal with le shdos an?
About Mya's GHOST
Ghost are real but always follow the same formula
Because the hit television show “A hunting” is canon to hello neighbor
So if mya exists as a ghost she is canon
What if Mya's ghost shows up at HN2
Trying to stop Quentin from discovering her father's dirty secrets
What kind of a role will Nicky have in HN2?
Why would she
Ghosts probably aren’t even canon.
Bosco Bay be like
Either a hostage, a cameo, or a playable character. 2 one is most likely.
Guys Ike is the guest
Ike guestshowitz
I have a question
How are we able to block doors with simple wooden chairs in HN
To an extent that we cant even open it
I tried that in real life that too with a metal chair
It does not block the door
you need a WOOden chairs
I tried wooden chairs too
no
Chair blocking doesnt work
WOOden chairs
Stop JOKING
just
How are they able to block doors in HN
Its AI
HN is Realistic
maybe neighbor has magic chairs
idk
big building with eye
exists
HN makes no sense
It isnt
Its not an eye
Its an MLRS
Vandals PAINTED an eye on it

?
