Hello Games saying “No Man’s Sky was a mistake” blamed on server hack

4.6
If you follow Hello Games on Twitter and were scratching your head over a recent tweet, you’re not the only one.

Earlier this morning, a tweet posted on the Hello Games account said, simply, “No Man’s Sky was a mistake.”

It was quickly taken down, and the account locked, leading many to believe a meltdown of sorts had happened at the studio.

Some speculated the Twitter account was hacked, but a representative of the studio told Forbes that a “disgruntled employee” posted the tweet and they are in the process of getting it “sorted out.”

As Forbes notes, there are only 16 people employed at the studio, so it shouldn’t take much effort to find the culprit.

Then when Polygon reached out for comment, someone claiming to be Sean Murray, or at least using his email account, got back with the site. The person, again using Murray’s account, said: “The tweet is from me, but somebody from the team took it down. We have not been coping well.”

This game was terrible in general. It had so much hype and I was even interested it. Once I played it, i lost all feeling for it.

This article gave me a good laugh. The game was a mistake, and fulse advertised. I thought I read somewhere there is lawsuits against them for that? Good riddens.
