i miss the old artstyle of hello neighbor the early version of alpha 2 (usually known as alpha 1.5) that still had the semi realistic artstyle looked amazing, also fun fact: Pre alpha and Alpha 1 were made In Mid 2015 and were actually not meant to be released, it was until Dynamic pixels got tinybuild as their publisher, when tinybuild ended up releasing them to the public in October of 2016, Alpha 2 being intended as the only build meant to release to the public in their original plans, alongside the Alpha 1 house being the Original version of the Act 3 House which had actually 4 floors planned for it, Hello Neighbor whole devolopment is so confusing to think about Ngl.

[@MattTOB618]

1:25 The difference between _Baldi_ and _Neighbor_ is that Baldi, from the moment it was conceived, was a self-aware parody game. It was made for a Game Jam competition where the theme was "games about games or making games", and it didn't even win that competition. It just happened to strike a chord with people who found it _actually_ scary, and the creator capitalized on that _while still retaining the meta parody elements._ It never started taking itself too seriously; it never crammed in actually convoluted lore (only a parody of it, in the form of Null); and it didn't abandon what made it special in the first place. Hello Neighbor, from the moment it started, didn't have a clue where it was going; it just threw in things to kick speculation off. It had two selling points: the mystery of the basement, and the Neighbor's adaptive AI. And that was fine for a starting point. But slowly, as the alphas turned to betas, the AI became so much less of the focus, getting boiled down to the bare essentials. And at the same time, the world kept getting more outlandish and more cryptic, until it all eventually collapsed under its own weight. It doesn't matter if the story you're telling is great; no one's gonna be able to experience it if you wrap it in so much mystery that you can't break through, even if you smashed at it with all the cardboard boxes in the game.

Exactly. He isn’t fast anymore, and he pauses so many times just to insult you or whatever. It’s not even a scary chase scene anymore where you try to escape a scary guy that you can barely outsmart, it just feels like running away from a man that’s slightly angry lol

The even crazier part is that he can't even access 85% of his house in act 3, PLUS the game is so broken so if you wanted to you could just get rid of him entirely without any mods or game editing.

​​@@vinyl_jjwhat's funny is that in alpha 1, he's not fast at all, but he remains a constant threat because he can access his own damn house, since that alpha requires you to go in small rooms to get items, he could corner you if you're not careful.

[@peaceout8230]

"Hello Neighbor" was a game that had a very simple goal: discover what was in the basement-nothing more, nothing less. The house had a cartoonish appearance, and the Neighbor character was entertaining because of his intelligent AI. It all boiled down to what exactly was in the basement. However, I think the game was initially a short horror game, nothing more, until people started playing it more and more, reacting to it, attempting speedruns, and using glitches. In short, the game became increasingly popular. I used to watch a lot of videos about this game and loved the updates, but I noticed that fewer and fewer people were playing it, and I watched newer parts, but it just wasn't the same anymore. It's now a completely different game. "Hello Neighbor" was interesting because it was simple and centered around mystery. Instead of expanding the lore, they went in a direction that was unnecessary and overly complicated, to the point where I don't even know WHAT was in that basement anymore, what the point of it all was, or who was ultimately to blame or not. From a game that was very intriguing, it became a cash grab that unfortunately didn't succeed. The game deserves a remake, but first, a storyline must be created, and ONLY THEN should further exploration of the mysteries of the basement be pursued. I hope that one day this game will return in a better form.

The neighbors old Ai is smarter hell lock doors if you go through it to much will patrol near spots you stay in he reacts fast to light and sound making him more stealthy while he is stealthy due to being extremely quiet and you not being able to lose him thus a way more terrifying enemy compared to his opposite from the later versions which are worse then that he even sees shadows and reacts to them edit: he places traps in dark areas and if he finds you hiding in closets consistently he will start checking them commonly

[@shewolfcub3]

A big reason to why this is so scary is the A.I ACTUALLY being rather advanced; if you wait for him to shut the TV off he will actually do stuff around the house such as washing his hands in the kitchen, taking stuff from the fridge, or doing exercize in the room next to the living room. And the atmosphere actually is trying to be realistic with lighting that feels and seems realistic and tense creatign a tension in the feel of the player; thats what makes the first two builds actually scary and well made. Also he learns where you hide if you hide in closets enough The full game and sequels don't put a smart AI at the forepoint, instead its convoluted puzzles that you LITERALLY can NOT solve without a walkthrough video; Alpha 1 for example you could figure out on your own with the various genuine hints. Also while the cartoony artstyle is nice, it ruins the horror

[@maddan6955]

I think that part of the charm that was lost was due to the fact that the first few builds felt a bit more realistic, and they started adding more fantasy wacky aspects in later builds, but I'm not sure.

I felt like the reason why pre-alpha & alpha 1 were scarier was because: The mysterious vibes, Neighbor not having any emotions nor making any sounds, The neighbor's AI being smarter, The style was sorta realistic & wasnt cartoonish, The game was simple, go into your neighbors house and try to unlock his basement, The lore wasn't too complicated (And just what blaauwbok13 said, The chase music isnt scary anymore)

[@mrsbo-h2e]

For me, the problem isn't the neighbour, but the house. Since the houses from the prototype (AKA announcement trailer ) to alpha 2 were good for him since he could actually traverse his house well, but in the newer versions, the houses got larger meanwhile the neighbours ai just couldn't keep up, so by the final product the neighbour would not be able to go to like 90% of his own house.

I think the problem with the franchise is that even as they've brought on more experienced people and made the games look more professional they forgot why people enjoyed the game to begin with. losing the horror edge and focusing on a wider range of characters instead of just the neighbour and his secrets was probably one of their bigger mistakes. anyway, loved the video and i love hello neighbor, thanks! I thought it was funny that you remember bits and pieces of how to play the game and were trying to put them together. and the comparison at the end really helped to showcase the difference, too. (p.s. since you decided to check out the pre-alpha, could you check out alpha 1 too? it's one of my favourite builds and has the best ai and puzzles of any of the other versions. )

[@sunnystar707]

also i had many theories about this game itself , the prototype version is still downloadable (i think) and the neighbor even SWEARS. its also so much more interesting especially the ending. Apparently the protoganist (the person you play as) was meant to actually be the neighbours son , although im not sure on that. the old style was so much more semi-realistic and scarier it was like a very unique style and i was looking so forward to the development , but the new one just seems like its too complicated , including the lore. hello neighbor hide and seek wasent too bad , but it could have been better if they actually included not only the old style , but more cutscenes and lore aspects giving the player a idea of what is actually going on in the story. but now its as if you have to force yourself to buy the books to actually understand the story. otherwise you wont get it , so so confusing.

[@loodgack]

only weakness of prealpha was...how to word it once the neighbor gets excited (officially called hunt mode), you cannot calm him down, you need to sleep and reset him other than that, I absolutely adore prealpha to this day, indeed a better build than the ones we have nowadays "I just want to go to the Neighbor's house and I want the Neighbor" is a mood every single day, for 5 years

[@angelcoffee1972]

I honestly kinda forgot about Hello Neighbor because my 2016 phase was about FNAF, but I think it’s the story that hurt Hello Neighbor [2] so much. At first the game was about “What’s in my creepy neighbor’s basement? What happened to him and his family?” Then you had “Hide&Seek” that was fun, cute, and scary that helped add more to the lore between the Neighbor and his Family, mainly the kids and their trauma after their mother died and then the daughter at the end of the game. Now, idk what Hello Neighbor 2 is about. And let’s be honest, we all forgot about it like how we wanna forget about “Megamind 2.” 🤣 No one talk about the game like we did with Baldi, the first Hello Neighbor game, Slenderman, etc. Maybe “Hello Neighbor 2” really wasn’t supposed to be a sequel to the first game, but instead a pocket dimension where the neighbor isn’t the villain, instead the victim to the Crowman? That’s probably why the story and characters don’t line up very well from the Prototype of the first game to the Final look of the 2nd game.

[@GABESSECONDBIGGESTFAN]

Isn't it weird, that all that the player is accomplishing is making their neighbor more paranoid that someone is going to come into his house, and making him more of an introverted outcast, so much so that he boards up his windows?

[@sunnystar707]

yeah thats also another thing that makes it more realistic and more lore wise accurate. he gets more paranoid and more mentally effected because you keep breaking into his house constantly to the point he’s circling his house constantly , he sometimes even starts to stand infront of the basement , checks under beds and in closets as his idol animations as you continue to break in and get caught. thats what made him so scary and lore wise so interesting. like he constantly gets paranoid by you, refusing to call the police because hes a madman himself. (basement secrets would get exposed)

Man this brings back sooooo many memories. Was 11 years old back in 2016 and you were one of the first people I ever watched play Hello Neighbor. Your video introduced me to the game and I loved it. It had its charm and scary moments along with its small hints at a darker story. It was simple and that is what I loved about it. Looking at full release of Hello Neighbor it just lost its touch. It was no longer about being stealthy and find out dark secrets and horror. It became this bright lame puzzle game with no tension or scares. It became too kid friendly and goofy as well as frustrating and boring. Always a fight with the buggy AI and broken mechanics. No fun, no scares, no nothing. Just a huge pile of disappointment. I wish the full game kept the same art style and feel as the pre alpha and alpha 1. I'm sure it would have been a lot more popular. Now days its just a cash grab targeted towards children. It really does need a reboot. Badly.

[@ftyftyfty8415]

I love the alphas for the atmosphere/the way they were made also for the nostalgia, the complete game is my favorite because the story was good. Honestly it downgraded later on, like in hello neighbor 2, I think there are too many characters. It was better when the neighbor was the only npc character

[@iscremintothevoid]

Oh gosh golly gee... Yeah, I really miss this version of Hello Neighbor. Things went directions, that's for sure.

[@kateb1127]

I think there are several reasons why the final is so much worse. I'm gonna be talking about part 1, because I haven't played or watched the gameplay of part 2. The alpha had a very good adaptive AI, first off, and the AI knew the layout of the house so it had turf advantage. It was a simple game with a simple goal. The art style was really cool and kinda creepish, so it matched the horror aesthetic. The sound design was also much better, as you noticed. Now, to the new version. The AI is not as smart as before, it's easy to confuse and it doesn't even know how to navigate the house. Therefore, the neighbor is no longer a scary threat, if even a threat at all. Furthermore, there's no consequences for getting caught, as far as I know he doesn't block the windows or anything, it's just nothing to be afraid of. The art style was also changed into this cartoony one, which just doesn't fit the aesthetic, and the sound design got much worse and less creepy. The game itself was also changed. Instead of having a simple objective and focus on the scary aspect, it became a weirdly convoluted puzzle/parkour game with just a few creepy moments. The puzzles are unnecesarily complicated and from what I've seen there are no hints, so it's impossible to be scared because you're too frustrated over the 20-step puzzle you need a guide for. Then, there's also lore. The creators maybe had some sort of ideas of what to put in the basement in the alpha, but ultimately we ended up with one big mess. There's a lot of unnecessary details, the fact that you get to the basement at the end of the FIRST CHAPTER completely ruins the goal of the game, the whole story is disappointing, and the whole "it was all a dream" thing just makes it worse. It seems they just threw a bunch of stuff together to get people to theorize. Overall, the game seems to have changed from a genuine passion project into a big mess of things that are barely holding up with duct tape. The creators just kept adding new stuff to make it more interesting, when it didn't need it all in the first place. And at some point it just became one big mess with no real story, goal or purpose.

[@EvenYouTube]

I was gonna look up "Bijuu mike hello neighbour easter egg" and almost looked up "hello mike bijuu neighbour easter egg" 💀

[@YourPapiMarc]

You have to revisit Alpha 1!!!!

[@FreeMyVoxels]

I want to clarify something, the reason why the current builds and newest games of Hello Neighbor doesn't feel smart is because they were obviously not focusing on the AI like they said. Bigger world doesn't mean it's a more fun game. The reason Hello Neighbor got it's popularity was because of the intrigue of an advancing AI that would constantly adapt to certain conditions, remember, it WAS a stealth horror, not anymore. The community started with its myth busting which caused TinyBuild to hop on the bandwagon and give us what we want. So, instead of focusing on AI and horror, they focused on mystery and leaving us to wonder what happens next. HN2 was more surprising to me because I almost lost hope after Secret Neighbor. HN2 was promising even more than what HN1 was, an advanced AI that would be community driven and altered as time goes on, so we could have saw a really challenging but fun game. EDIT: Remember, TinyBuild turned a potential serial killer into a beloved father whose family completely broke apart by a car crash, THAT is why it isn't scary.

[@sunnystar707]

i also hated how it was all “dreams” like the whole giant basment would have been so cool.

[@xoxojustno6971]

The first Hello Neighbor was smaller, simpler, yet complicated and more interesting. The bigger the house got, the easier it was to hide from the neighbor. It works better when it's smaller and more claustrophobic. The rooms were smaller and the neighbor could be literally in the same room next to you at any time. It was the perfect blend of cartooney and realistic, enough to make it scary.

In the first one, you can open the back door while it is locked. There is a way to grab the chair through the door.

Yep they made 7 Books that tied into the games and then they just scrapped it all all of a sudden

ITS SO SCARY WHEN HES CHASING YOU

The key is the colour red and it’s hidden in an upstairs room, and you have to unlock the basement Note: you can try use a glitch to get to the upstairs room

1:42 the basement was the friends we made along the way

I feel like with the newer ones it just tried to appeal to young kids more, so they really dumbed down the neighbor and gave him these cartoony house designs. And got rid of the scary music.

I miss hello neighbor, why did it have to die out 😢

[@janaguirre4756]

It didn't die out, but more accurately "snuffed" out and pinned down into submission when the developers decided that it needed to be "kid scary" and lost it's identity

Please leave me alone I just want to watch my god damn tv!

[@CarlaDahlberg-r8x]

I grew up with hello neighbor I look at it as a memory

[@affectojfgidi1246]

I definitely wouldn't mind a Hello Neighbour re-something. I always enjoyed watching youtubers play it and the weirdness+complication of the plot did not and still don't bother me. I'm more for it than against!
