Chapter 2 ideas

[clear nimbus]

Now there’s been rumours or has been said of a new chapter to hello Neighbor 2, so here’s some ideas:

Have this second chapter be beyond old bridge, if I could choose I’d have it take place in old town.

The AI characters could be:

1. The Farmer, a character only seen as concept art in devlog 1 (I’m guessing), could be brought back, his location would be a big farm with massive wheat field and a bunch of barns, with this I’d like a redesign with the Tutorial Barn, maybe have it be filled with bags of foods, and storage items, on the front it could say “Farmers Name” Farm Storage, to make it seem like the Tutorial Barn is the Farmers storage.

2. The Cashier, The location would be the Gas Station with a new redesign, the interior would be very maze like (similar to the Library), and would have shoppers walking around, but I’d rather have it be a place for buying items with an in game currency you earn.

3. The Manager, It would the Infamous Mall, now I understand The Mall was an early Bakery, but it would be cool if it got a redesign and new neon color look, it would be tall, with an AI chasing you through the place, but most of the puzzles would be spread out and simple.

4. The Fisherman, no I’m not talking about Missing Journalist (who isn’t a fisherman), it would be cool for a new character, that lives on the opposite side of the lake from Otto, He could have docks and more, a cool idea is since the mayor likes boats, maybe he could head there to check out the place sometimes.

5. The Gray Manor, now each night you need a main place to go to, why not better than he Gray Manor, Obviously Mr. Peterson would be there but I don’t know how that would connect with the story.

Now after you beat Chapter 1, you would be in free roam in Friendly Court, and in order to Start Chapter 2, you have to go to old bride, once you start it you are stuck in old town, but once you beat it, you can freely go to Old Town and Friendly Court.

maybe since mr peterson knows he need somewhere new he moves to the gray manor

Yeah but the objective probably isn’t finding Aaron anymore

[solar marsh]

i think you should be able to go back to friendly court during chapter 2

as you play it

so you can relax if you want to take a break from old town

[clear nimbus]

True

[red tide]

I always thought gray Manor could be the museum after the major flood

[clear nimbus]

Wouldn’t make sense lore wise sense the flood is most likely retconned

[red tide]

Ik just an idea I had before I knew the lore

[solar marsh]

wasn't the alphas after the great flood

No since they ain’t canon, but Hello Guest was, same with Act 3 obviously, which explains why everything is so run down in Act 3, and well you know the style of Hello Guest.

Act 3 still canon though

[worldly belfry]

The mall should be like a store where you can buy items like glue and more one-use tools to use against the AI and stuff

[worldly belfry]

Also no hello guest is an alpha, so it's not canon. It was meant to be an actual game with chapters and a boss fight, but was scrapped and instead used for an ARG and the reveal for hn2. The security guard story could possibly be repurposed in chapter 2.

[clear nimbus]

Yes but, The story was the exact same in the alphas and HG was meant to be Canon and it was taking place after GN2.

That’s the main thing I want, is to bring back a In game currency that you have to earn, and have it so you earn it through completing Days/Nights and doing side quest, and use it at the Gas Station to buy items.
