“No Man’s Sky was a mistake.” It’s the kind of misattributed quote you expect to see photoshopped onto a Hello Games tweet. But what happens when the message is verifiably from the official Hello Games Twitter account? Well it must have been hacked, you say, and Sean Murray will be right around to let us know that the whole ordeal is just a poorly protected account.
Alright, now what do you do when Sean Murray writes in to let you know that the tweet was indeed authentic? Well that exact story happened today, someone used the Hello Games Twitter account to write “No Man’s Sky was a mistake” and then followed it up by writing to Polygon under Sean Murray’s email address.
Murray has since pointed to an insecure LinkedIn account, however Mashable is reporting that the culprit is a disgruntled employee.
LinkedIn was hacked earlier this year, leading to speculation that Murray or another employee had committed the terrible no-no of sharing passwords between accounts.
