Changes to the notebook in the intro

[broken mesa]

Currently the intro for hello neighbor 2 is a little confusing especially to people who haven`t watched the Animated series. Most people would assume it takes place right after act 2 of hello neighbor 1 but the Animated series and Hello neighbor vr proves that not to be the case. So I decided to make certain changes to the notebook in the intro to make it a bit less confusing for people who have not watched the animated series on what is going on.
Heres a small list of the changes:

1. The first change is putting Theodore as the main suspect because he is already wanted by the police and would obviously be the main suspect in Quentins case
2. Added nicky to list of missing kids. In the school dlc Nicky is shown as missing which establishes that the school dlc takes place before act 2 and the main game of hn2 but in the main intro he is completely absent from the notebook. I made a small change that would make it clear to the player that Nicky has already been found by the time hello neighbor 2 starts.
   I have made a mock up photo of how these changes would look (Sorry for the quality Im not good at editing images)
   I have made a slightly better version of the mock up photo that can be seen here: #1220386951568298035 message

👌

[sudden needle]

This is exactly what they should do

[silk moth]

This is great

[clever wolf]

No

[sudden needle]

Bro doesn’t want consistency

[clever wolf]

Only after hitting a neighbor with a shovel, Niki escapes and the neighbor is searched!

[broken mesa]

have you like not seen the animated series?

or like played Hello neighbor vr?

In the animated series the neighbor is arrested after Nicky escapes

bro did not read the post

[broken mesa]

and the teasers imply that he spends quite a bit of time in jail which cant happen in hello neighbor 2 because Quentin wakes up the next day and theres already signs of the neighbor being in the museum

theres a lot of evidence showing that hn2 is after a decent amount of time after act 2

[clever wolf]

well

[broken mesa]

and in patch 9 they added a detail that basically confirms nicky has been found

in the school dlc he is listed as missing

the dlc takes place before the main game

since Quentin still has his car

in the main intro nicky isnt even labled as missing

Im making a simple change showing that acnowledges that Nicky has been found and makes it clearer of when hn2 takes place

[clever wolf]

But then, what can explain the season 2 teasers with Quentin if he first arrives in Raven Brooks in Hello Neighbor 2 (unless in season 2 he runs to neighbors)?

[broken mesa]

because ted escapes from jail?

episode 6 shows us the night nicky escaped and Quentin isnt even in the town

hn2 is after nicky escapes

like at a week at minimum has passed

[clever wolf]

Quentin won't leave his car just standing in the shed

[broken mesa]

he does...

thats literally what he does

he never comes back for it

Hello neigbor 2 clearly takes place a decent amount of time after nicky has been found

[clever wolf]

Do you also when you crash into something you NEVER pick up your car?

[broken mesa]

bro he literally never does

have you not played the game?

because from this conversation it seems to me that you havent watched the animated series or even played hello neighbor 2

[clever wolf]

Why would the police come to the house of the wanted person for the second time?

[broken mesa]

because he was spotted there?

also in the animated series he clearly escapes from jail

his house would be the most logical place to check

[vale patio]

My honest reaction to this conversation:

[clever wolf]

Yes, Quentin has things to do, but this does not mean that he will not take the van to his death. Maybe he will pick up the van after the end of the game (along with subsequent chapters).

[broken mesa]

judging by the photos seen in patch 9

the town will have a storm that will leave it in a ruined state

the town is not ruined in the dlc so logically it takes place before the main game

[clever wolf]

We don't know what the barn will look like

[clever wolf]

This is not the main city

[broken mesa]

dude

look at the state of the town

a storm this big would have affected the entire town

[clever wolf]

Look at this home

It's not destroyed

[broken mesa]

also the dlc notebooks clearly show us that Quentin knows nothing about the neighbors

unlike hn2 where he would know something about them

[clever wolf]

What?

[broken mesa]

this is from the school dlc

also by your logic nicky would still be missing after hello neighbor 2...

because in the school dlc nicky is shown as missing

[sudden needle]

Oops

[clever wolf]

Did you see in hn2 where he learned something about Nicky?

He does not even know about the fate of Mia

[broken mesa]

🤦‍♂️

Im done talking to you

its like speaking to a wall

I have provided more than enough evidence

I have talked to multiple people before making this post to make sure I dont mess anything up

before disliking a post please actually do some research on the story before telling someone they are wrong

[vale patio]

Yeah, this post is good.

It's not urgently needed, but it would help new people understand where Nicky is.

[broken mesa]

it would also make less confusing for some people

[vale patio]

Yeah.

[broken mesa]

what

[broken mesa]

Improved version of the mock up:

[broken mesa]

What else can I do to improve the mock up?

[topaz coral]

add jaythefrog

[sudden needle]

Use this picture

[lavish pendant]

Nah

Isn't arrested in HN2

[sudden needle]

He was

But escaped

This is the point of the feedback to show that

[lavish pendant]

Such a bum theory

[sudden needle]

It’s litteraly confirmed

[lavish pendant]

When

[sudden needle]

That AS is connected to hn2

[lavish pendant]

Omg never trust alex

Hes unrelyable

[raven forum]

Quentin's description literally says that him catching Peterson in the act was a twist of fate

[raven forum]

Here's the full image

[surreal abyss]

Did you watch the AS

[lavish pendant]

I don't like that Alex is connecting AS and HN2

[surreal abyss]

Why?

I dont see anything wrong with hn2 and the AS being connected

[lavish pendant]

Its just... ehhhh

[broken mesa]

I would rather use something from hn2

[broken mesa]

tbh the connection seems more like a paralel more than it being 1:1

the animated series has smartphones while hn2 has quite a bit of things saying it takes place in 1996

like Skipper`s birthday

or the boating competition

its confusing

[modern rain]

#ashater

(not trying to be rude btw)

[lavish pendant]

I'm not being an AS hater. I'm just saying I don't like that AS and HN2 connect

AS is an ok show but I don't like it being connected to HN2

[vale patio]

It's not connected in the way you think.

AS doesn't affect HN2.

[broken mesa]

its more like an alternate timeline that sorta follows the same events

(I have no other explanation for the dates being inconsistent)

[lavish pendant]

Ok good

[broken mesa]

yeah its kinda weird I hope it becomes less confusing when season 2 is out

[lavish pendant]

Same

[broken mesa]

should I make a version of the mock up that uses the picture from his missing poster?

[sudden needle]

Yes
