Sean Murray Swears Off Interviews As New Year’s Resolution

GUILDFORD, UK – After announcing a new game called Light No Fire at The Game Awards, Sean Murray saw fans online begin to get hyped for this new project. Unfortunately, this was promptly followed by Sean experiencing flashbacks to No Man’s Sky’s launch and its less-than-positive reaction. To prevent any similar incidents, Sean has said he will be swearing off Twitter as his New Year’s resolution.

“Look I am very happy to see people getting interested in what we’re working on but at the same time all of us here at Hello Games agree with Sean that it’s best he step away from interviews,” says one Hello Games employee. 

“It’s not that we doubt his abilities to promote the game, as a matter of fact there have been more than a few times we wished it was the opposite. We just want what’s best for everyone, Sean included, and I don’t think death threats are included in that.”

Many other employees expressed similar sentiments while also assuring us that Sean came to this decision completely on his own with no coercion from the team. But some fans seem to be upset with the decision. Saying that a lack of news may lead to them losing interest in the game.

“The game looks great from the tiny teaser we got but there’s still so much more I want to know before I commit to this. Sure I could just wait for them to release it and then buy it after seeing reviews but I want it ASAP. 

So if I can’t get it on release day obviously my only choice is to threaten this man’s life and say nasty things online like ‘there’s no butterflies in the game and if you don’t put them in, you’re gonna be in a cocoon of pain!’ like I proudly did for No Man’s Sky.”

With so many opinions going around on this topic, Sean Murray took it upon himself to comment on it and the game in general. Unfortunately, the second he got close to a microphone multiple Hello Games employees immediately rushed at Sean and tackled him to the ground. He was then promptly and swiftly carried away before he could utter a single word.

The only statement Hello Games allowed him to make was very brief and simply read: ‘Light No Fire will be a good game. Please buy it when it comes out. -Sean’
