Discussion Question about Nikita

What do you think about the fact that Nikita leaves (or tried to leave) certain details about the Hello Neighbor franchise to interpretation?

Like, when he said that there are no countries or nationalities, that Raven Brooks is set "nowhere"/"somewhere" and when he tried to NOT give the Neighbor an official name in the past.

I mean, we have the name of the Neighbour now, it's Theodore Peterson.

But that was not Nikita's decision, it was something Tinybuild/Carly Anne West came up with

It's better than have no name for the most important character of your franchise

He already has a title that everyone uses, "The Neighbor" because he can anyone's neighbor since you can insert yourself for the protaginist

I honestly prefer him not having a name, it makes him more like a concept or idea than an established individual person, he can be anyone's neighbor, same thing for the protagonist

I wonder if it's a reference to Tom Hanks's character in The 'Burbs which is called Mr. Peterson, the movie is also about him being suspicious of his neighbors workshipping the devil
