Something that makes Mr peterson (the neighbor) so scary is his ability to think like you would. He is supposed to be able to predict your next move, and set up traps. Here are some more ideas to make him more real and scary
If he finds an item you drop, he should examine it and determine if its a threat to him. If he feels it to be a threatening object he could hide it from you.
Something that always makes me jump in games is someone reaching their arm through a tight space to try to get you. If you try to get through a window, he should reach for you and try to pull you back towards you.
Chairs should block doors like in the first game. Then the neighbor can predict ahead of time optimal escape routes and block them off with a chair. This is something I do in Secret Neighbor. Lets say theres a room with two doors. I block one with a chair, then go through the other to corner the kid. The neighbor should do this. (of course, Quentin should be able to kick down doors for a chance to escape.)
Mr peterson should remember where you go the most like in the first game. Then, the neighbor could remember to check that area, or hide there and wait for you. Why are you the only person that can hide in closets and under desks? Imagine Mr Peterson could wait for you in a closet.
The catch animations should be more startling like they are in Hello Neighbor VR. Instead of casually turning around when your caught, your camera just snaps towards him. Another idea, is that instead of playing the usual animation, you just see his hand grab you from behind if your facing away from him. Think about the beginning of the game with the Kidnapping cutscene. The neighbor grabs the kid from behind and puts his hands around his mouth. This is what I'm imagining should be the catch animation if your facing away from him. you shouldn't get an alert when the neighbor sees you.
Tnx Jacky for clearing up the prob
