The game should have more AIs or maybe just be a simple addition to the open world, as side quests. You guys can use Elena's art for reference, they look really sick and it would be really cool for them to be used in the game in some way. (This was one of the characters she made. The grandma definitelty fits the HN vibe.) This would definitely help add more life to the game.

i cant believe theres another post about this
background npcs do not fit HN
the best they can do is add sound effects to simulate a busy place, which is what theyre already doing
proud grove
This could work.
I like the design of these npc’s cause they look like genuine characters in HN2
As long as they don’t interfere with the town and just stay in they’re lawn this would be cool
glacial blaze
i highly disagree but ok

It's really uncanny to hear sounds with no origin
I think this is a great idea
Maybe not even make them walk around
They could be doing tasks outside they're houses
proud grove
It's really uncanny to hear sounds with no origin
Well the game is meant to be uncanny and these characters should also be aggressive.

It's really uncanny to hear sounds with no origin
but that literally is HN
uncanny
and it makes perfect sense for a game like this
proud grove
and it makes perfect sense for a game like this
That is true
The game can still be uncanny
As long as these npc’s are done right
HN2 should be uncanny
But this is a town that we are talking about
glacial blaze
HN1 did the same
and it wasnt terrible
but HN2 ambience is perfect
in patch 9 anyway
proud grove
Fair enough
gloomy wolf
I love the character designs

why is there a grandma
Peak gaming that's why

why is there a grandma
Well i gotta have something to run over?

I agree with this to an extent. Having random npcs for no other purpose than to just exist seems like a waste. Having them be used as small side quests is ok.

This is a very good idea
frozen karma
EXACTLY
frozen karma
Would make it feel less eerie
that defeats the purpose of raven brooks and some of its music
frozen karma
bruh no
Why
Also whats the point
Bg npc's would add nothing to the game
And change its feel completely
and dont expect it to ever be added
civic fog
Yeah
But the town feels so empty without people walking around
Not even walking around
Just make them do taks outside they're house
frozen karma
But the town feels so empty without people walking around
Thats why they made a theme called
"Where is everyone"
because the game is self aware
frozen karma
Cuz the forest protectors
frozen karma
yeah ig
idk
civic fog
Nah
