What the what?

Was mucking around on GAF when the forum blew up re: Polytron getting hacked. Here's a truncated, redacted screenshot:

As if this thing couldn't get any more insane.

imo, It's a moot point whether people from /v/ were involved or not; I personally don't think it was /v/ but whatever. The crux being that the stuff that was leaked was immense and comprehensive. Not just accounts and passwords but financials-- think information re: Sony's deal w/ Polytron over having Fez on PS+, etc...

Shortly after, we get a tweet from Phil Fish:

No Caption Provided

I understand that Mr. Fish's venting can get a bit dramatic at times, but I gotta imagine if all this shakes out to be (once again) a subsection of the Internet deciding to destroy the lives of those they don't like for whatever reason, that I wouldn't be surprised if he was legit serious about just selling off those assets, taking his money, and put himself in a better and more supportive space.

Anyways, I feel terribly bad that he's drawn the ire of strangers to this extent. I personally think Fez is a great game and that he and everybody associated with Polytron are very talented. I also hope the authorities get involved asap and stitch this up.

We made the threads at the same time... or rather I was typing this up and didn't see the other go up. I'll post the ss in the other thread.

Oh, look, someone from 4chan is being a giant dickhole. How surprising.

I hope against hope Phil isn't actually done for real though, because Fez is legit amazing and I'd love to play whatever he comes up with next.
