one thing I really regret, is using "Gershowitz" often. so often that people actually took it and keep using it. to this day.

Quentin has no last name. it has been confirmed during a stream. it was objectively confirmed that they didn't count with a last name.

I kept using Gershowitz because I'm certain plot-wise (not lore. PLOT) that Quentin HG was in fact Ike Gershowitz from the books with slight changes. the story kept changing and only the blind don't notice that.

Quentin changed the very same way as Player changed into Nicky. first and last state and even the second were different characters.

so, if I refer to Quentin as Gershowitz - it's the HG one. I often call Quentin HN2 "journalist" because that's what he is.

Bijuu Mike becomes a gigachad (he is right)

I'd add which others said too, the cartoon is liked by people, because it is NOT HN.

majority of the people don't understand the real message of the original HN, because it is deeper than you think.

the cartoon is a Monster house/Gravity falls fanfiction, which they animated. they 1:1 match at not one point, copy. you can check yourself.

HN's lore and fandom are literally broken atm

Every time when something shitty happens with this poor franchise I had the feeling that I should write something about it. And the last AS teaser was like a spit into my face, so here you go. HN has problems, the fandom, the franchise itself. And these problems are huge. We all know that it's a some kind of a milking cow at the moment, it's already a very sad situation. People around me (with whom I hang out and they are/were in HN fandom) liked the way how story went when Nikita was around. It's obvious, that he wasn't involved in modern HN2 and projects that were created after. It may sound stupid to those people, who don't have this feeling, but you just know that he hasn't participated in development. It's like a style, handwriting. You can try to copy it, but it still will be a copy. And his style, his handwriting is nowhere. The last time I felt that HN is HN was when HN2 alpha 2 teasers were seen. I was excited, had high hopes. Felt that special vibe. But later? Nothing. Lore problems. SIGH. Every fucking interpretation of this poor game fails, contradicting each other and original canon. We have the game. The first and original resource of information, everything else should be based on it, not the opposite(!). These books are a cash grab, I have almost all of them, I've read them, but they're a cash grab literally. I can say it as a person who is writing too and who can point out that everyone is freaking OOC in them, including Theodore. And no matter how TB wants to be "an animation studio" or smth, they're GAME PUBLISHERS hiii hellooo hi??? You're supposed to publish games, they spent money on absolutely unnecessary product that can't even give them these money back, as I suppose. You all do know that Ted never freaking ever had a brother. Even the book one had SISTER, but it was just a random fact even and her existence in the lore was... Not important. Lore keeps being overwritten over and over again, it's nowhere HN already. The legacy was destroyed or smth. I won't even say anything about poor HG that had amusing potential! Are u guys really okay with this? Cuz I'm not. It feels at least disrespectful to Nikita, imho. I would be so depressed if my creation was turned into a milking cow for someone else. HN1 had a meaning, morality. It wasn't just a game for fun and giggles, it was a message, it was an art. Like a good movie, like a good book. But a good game. Maybe with bugs, yes. Maybe it wasn't 100% perfect in different aspects, but it had soul. And imho HN could be a russian gamedev savior at some point, cuz russian gamedev is half alive. And old fandom... People who are new to this franchise probably doesn't know a lot of facts, some don't even understand what was HN1 about, even if it's obvious as hell. People are not friendly to each other for some reason, despite they're a part of one community. Stop stabbing the same boat where we all in, you will drown not us, but yourself too. So we should be respectful to each other, we're the one community, no matter if we want it or not. I miss old HN. No fucking mystic, just metaphors and messages. No random flat characters, no 100 boring and unnecessary spin-offs, including a freaking cartoon. And as a conclusion HN = Nikita (and Dynamic Pixels ppl) No Nikita = No HN Text is not systematized as it should, maybe there are even grammar mistakes. But it's an emotional vent.

I DONT WANT THE NEIGHBOR TO BE SAD

No More Bullying

Okay, there is something about this photo from the official Hello Neighbor website that I have to address: This is the protagonist’s yellow car and stuff, so why is the neighbor’s portrait with some other guy here, like it’s part of the protagonist stuff or something? This has been bugging me for quite some time now….

Found a picture of Neighbs washing some dishes. Thought that it is important.
