This version of Peterson's House (Widehouse), is arguably the most "real" part of what we know as Alpha 2.

We have multiple references in the alphas that prove this area was at least being partially worked on during that point. We even saw this house presumably in the 16 hour stream. Even though this is just an edit of the house from the Alphas (or maybe even the other way around), I hope we can finally get a good look inside.

Thank you!

(Also Sidenote, we call this version "Widehouse" because of how oddly wide this version of the house was.)

This specific house was used in NeighborArea, incase anyone reading who wants to find this place needs it.

#

Anyways, people might want more context, so i'll explain.

thorny niche Dec 2, 2023, 3:26 PM

#

I always found this house kind of endearing

#

Because its like

#

It's hn1's classic house

#

But really strange

grand wagon Dec 2, 2023, 3:26 PM

#

In the files of the Alphas, Mr. Peterson had a specific set of tasks meant for this house. It was even functional there, too!

#

And we know that this house was just modified from the alphas, and also has a full interior.

#

This was the ORIGINAL planned house used in the Hello Neighbor 2 intro.

#

NeighborArea is also OLD, and might even predate Alpha 1

#

grand wagon NeighborArea is also ***OLD***, and might even predate Alpha 1

Ngl i get nostalgic

#

When seeing that stream with Wide house

grand wagon Dec 2, 2023, 3:28 PM

#

But yeah, if you wanna support it, make sure to like it

#

hopefully in the future, they'll finally show the whole thing off, since there's not many good angles of the inside

#

(and the second floor)

harsh plume Dec 2, 2023, 3:29 PM

#

I hope they bring back old art style elements to full game

#

Like even more old art models and such

yo totallynotmichael don't worry..

sturdy owl Dec 2, 2023, 3:32 PM

update us if he says anything

grand wagon Dec 2, 2023, 3:35 PM

#

But yeah, how do you feel knowing that the Intro was at least completable by developer standards around the Alpha 1 times/

#

(and that the house WASN'T a building with weird separated interiors around the map?)

I actually like the textures on the house

grand wagon Dec 2, 2023, 3:36 PM

#

I still can't believe this whole time we HAD part of Old FG

#

But then again I think some just forgot

#

(I forgot originally too)

It’s like the alpha 1 house but not as abandoned

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:16 PM

#

Yeah

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:18 PM

#

It's the Neighbor's House. ...BEFORE Alpha 1.

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:18 PM

#

grand wagon It's the Neighbor's House. ...BEFORE Alpha 1.

I want more old hn2 footage in general tbh

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:19 PM

Here's a general timeline of the footage we know of for those who want it

grand wagon It's the Neighbor's House. ...BEFORE Alpha 1.

What are you on about

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:20 PM

#

Do you not know

#

There's evidence that NeighborArea existed before Alpha 1 released.

#

And that the Neighbor's House WAS a thing before then.

acoustic folio Dec 3, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

Yeah and at that time they used the Alpha 1 house as a placeholder

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

For context, we have a folder called "Intro" that has semi-functional BP

acoustic folio Dec 3, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

acoustic folio Yeah and at that time they used the Alpha 1 house as a placeholder

You can see them doing exactly that in Police Arrive

ashen plover Dec 3, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

widehouse is literally an edit of the alpha 1 house...

#

there are clips that use the alpha 1 house

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

OH

#

okay, my bad

#

So at that time they straight up used the A1 house

#

then after the Alpha days, they modified the model

acoustic folio Dec 3, 2023, 5:21 PM

#

Hello Alpha 1 hous

thorny niche Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

Wait, so this means that

ashen plover Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

i mean images of widehouse would be interesting to see to get a better image of it but thats all

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

Police Arrive is also old

ashen plover Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

yeah

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

not TOO old but

acoustic folio Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

Yeah its older than showcase obviously

ashen plover Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

we knre this already...

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

this means that there WAS a game here in the works

thorny niche Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

I genuinely hope we get a police arrive cutscene in hn2

ashen plover Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

no not really

thorny niche Dec 3, 2023, 5:22 PM

where Pipe to Other World was involved

thorny niche Dec 3, 2023, 5:23 PM

It's still a cool looking cutscene

acoustic folio Dec 3, 2023, 5:23 PM

#

Police Arrive is cool but i cannot see how it can fit into HN2 right now

#

Unfortunately

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:23 PM

#

yeah

#

Old HN2 gives me a lot of questions and a lot of intrigue

#

like for example

#

Why was Police Arrive a thing THIS early?

#

What the hell was Pipe to Other World?

#

Why did they not let us explore Ted's house before he fled like originally intended?

ashen plover Dec 3, 2023, 5:24 PM

demo... smh...

#

i still think that "alpha 2" wouldve basically been like beta but worse

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:26 PM

#

It would

#

No one is saying

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:26 PM

#

I'm gonna be honest with myself, it would've been.

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:26 PM

#

The gameplay would be good

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:26 PM

#

Though I do wonder

#

what would happen if they never thought of the Hideout?

#

And we still had this

#

weird gameplay concept?

#

Police Arrive would have a reason to still exist. Guest World would be real.

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:26 PM

#

I Think that originally we were supposed to Explore mr Peterson house before

#

He escaped but

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:27 PM

#

Yeah, there's

#

a bit of evidence supporting that

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:27 PM

#

Then he escapes to the museum

#

Or gray manor

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:27 PM

#

Originally you were meant to find this Pipe to Other World.

#

I think Ted would like

#

walk to it

#

time to time

#

or you'd have to find it yourself?

#

And it tries sending you to a map that I think's from the A1 Test Footage from the Diary

#

so, early Alpha 1.

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:28 PM

#

Okay im not saying this would have been a good story

#

But i Think its mysterious

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:28 PM

#

Assuming this is true, the story would be

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:28 PM

#

Act 1 of full game feels not that mysterious in my opinion

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:28 PM

Barn
Quentin finds Ted's House
Police Arrive
Ted flees to Pipe to Other World
Ted gets Kidnapped by The Guest
Quentin runs after Ted

Tbh a part of me wish wish full game had a section

Like the demo where your up against mr Peterson in his house

#

Before he escapes to the museum

Hate it or like it Old hn2 was intresting to say the least

grand wagon Dec 3, 2023, 5:33 PM

Sounds more like new hn2 to me but okay

#

Not gonna argue

ashen plover Dec 3, 2023, 5:35 PM

#

yes because taking picture of ted in the fornt yard of the manor and having absolutely nothing else to do is so much more fun than a entire game with a sidequest

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:35 PM

#

Thats true but im not talking alpha 2

acoustic folio Dec 3, 2023, 5:35 PM

#

The only reason old HN2 is interesting is because we had no idea what it was
But from what we do know it was like an actual fever dream not in the good way

sturdy owl Dec 3, 2023, 5:35 PM

i'm more interested in old hn2 builds for the files rather than the gameplay

i hope we see stuff like mayak and nest in full game though

I just prefered the non linear sandbox enviornment open world approach mostly i guess thats my main reason for liking older hn2

granite granite Dec 3, 2023, 5:41 PM

old hn2 looks like there would be more of a mystery

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:42 PM

#

Idk

granite granite Dec 3, 2023, 5:42 PM

#

and the artstyle helped that

harsh plume Dec 3, 2023, 5:42 PM

#

If there was back then

#

If there was an big mystery like the devlogs implied There still is but i just dont like how its been presented in act 1
