No Man’s Sky’s Sean Murray Is ‘Fine’, Hello Games ‘Busy’ On Patches

Two questions have plagued Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky since the title’s rough-as-guts launch back in August: “Is that it?” and “Where did Sean Murray go?”. While the answer to the first query remains elusive, the second was somewhat satisfied recently by the studio’s audio chief Paul Weir.

Obviously, the lack of communication by Murray caused consternation among the game’s fans (and detractors) and while messages appeared via other avenues — Steam and the game’s official blog for instance — nothing has really been proffered by Murray himself.

When Weir was asked for more details, he wasn’t prepared to elaborate:

I suppose at the very least, he’s still working on the game in some capacity. Whether or not it’s from a fortified bunker in the middle of Sony HQ and not the studio itself? Your guess is as good as mine.
