#Make Raven Brooks feel more alive

Honestly, Raven Brooks feels like a empty town as of the moment, isn't the town supposed to have people living in it? I think to breath more life into the world there should be a few of the following:

Cars driving around, like in HN1
Vandals walking around at night, maybe spray painting graffiti onto buildings or kicking over trashcans
(you know i have to suggest this one) Imbir wandering around after they get fed.
Skipper should also wander a bit after he's fed, but would stick close to the Mayor's house and also chase off Vandals and/or Imbir
More ambience to the town, like hearing people talking or animals
Depending on the time of day, lights in some houses would go off or on to show that yes people are in the houses.
At Night maybe you'll hear the Guest too...somewhere, but you can't see him. GooglyGuest

I also had a funny thought where if you're making noise on a house's roof, you can hear the owner getting annoyed inside. Like they let out a angry growl or even yell at you to quit it.

i have nothing against the vandals but there must be a more unique original idea than just having the run around and graffiti

#

cus i dont see how the hell that would fit in Hn2

echo haven
#

Why wouldn't it

flint trench
#

how would it fit into gameplay

I would suggest just having normal background npcs going around, i'm not sure how that'd be.

Like having a normal guy walking by as Quentin is throwing paint at a cop

#

It's not like we've seen the vandals do this over and over or anything

The life of the town is important

flint trench
#

it does

echo haven
#

Details are important

but ok

I don't think that would work in HN2

flint trench
#

but ive already talked about that in another post

hidden flicker
#

like it's the best way to breathe life into a town, but I just can't see it working

flint trench
#

also theyd have to make like 50 meshes just so we dont see the same dude walking around all the time

echo haven
#

Not really

#

The vandals are a gang

#

They wear their weirdo outfits like a uniform

flint trench
#

no

#

NPCS

#

like normal people

#

I could see Vandals possibly get in the way of some puzzles depending on what it is. Like if the Duck task returns for Otto, I could see a Vandal trying to possibly take it, leading to both Otto and the player chasing him down.

It might be annoying in gameplay though, but a interesting concept...

#

i hate to keep bringing up that task though from the beta.

I mean they don't have to add like 100 of the same NPC walking around they could just put 5 npcs walking around every once in a while

#

but it also makes sense since the town is really small

PEAK feedback like always

#

Yeah

#

if the home owners call the police they would patrol the neighborhood, if they spot Quentin doing something illegal they would get out of their vehicle and give chase

#

That could be a nice idea to show the world of raven brooks is alive and doesn't just go around Quentin.

#

Another idea is to have the same background NPCs leave their homes to go to places like Gerda's bakery (After the day Quentin goes there of course)

#

(Can't have the game be super hard that early)

Quentin robbing houses and stealing items

cerulean lion
#

yeah, this would definitely be cool

#

literally all of the things you mentioned would work so well

gloomy gull
#

I agree

#

I don't hate this post but I most say I think the current atmosphere of Hello neighbor 2 is perfect

#

Barren streets with the noises of families in the distance

#

All entrances and exits to the town collapsed

#

The town has recently been put through a storm, life continues, families are enjoying themselves. But it's still a small barren town temporarily cut off from the world

#

But I must say I would love if neighbors would yell at you for climbing on the rooftop

#

based on logic we can figure out that rbo most likely takes place after hn2 act 1

queen grail
#

Yeah but I think it's kind of a jump that the storm causes people to steal from eachother

gloomy gull
#

I mean tbh I could see people doing that

Huh

#

Ima just take you word for it

#

RBO isn't really a HN game rn

#

Someone in the RBO chat asked if RBO is a game in the HN franchise and Nikita said "I can't comment on that"

10/10 home

#

Mayor might be corrupt but he's got a quality house

gloomy gull
#

I agree

cerulean lion
#

also the fact that they made a new neighbor model for the game

#

so yeah

#

definitely in the hn universe

spark delta
#

They didn't

#

Also how exactly does the existence of "wrong houses" imply that the neighbor is still around?

#

"new neighbor design" is for wtrb

spark delta
#

Yeah

It's for AS
