A Subnautica developer has reportedly been fired over controversial comments he previously posted to Twitter, with the game's sound designer Simon Chylinski tweeting that he has been ousted from his position at Unknown Worlds Entertainment.

Chylinski has come under fire recently after a number of recent comments he posted to Twitter were placed under the spotlight. The sound designer took to Twitter yesterday to post an update on his status with Unknown Worlds Entertainment, tweeting: "so. i just got fired.. :("

Isn't it illegal to fire someone for their political views in California? Unknown Worlds Entertainment may be in for one hell of an uncapped damages lawsuit.

    Destructive Creations, of Hatred [hatredgame.com] fame, are also Polish.

    Hatred fills your whole body. You're sick and tired of humanity's worthless existence. The only thing that matters is your gun and the pure Armageddon that you want to unleash. You will go out for a hunt, and you will clear the New York outskirts of all humans with cold blood. You will shoot, you will hurt, you will kill, and you ...

    It would seem white supremacist sociopathic ideologies aren't the exclusive purview of America.

    Are all the enemies black or something? What's racist about "kill all humans?"

      Racial hatred towards humans, what's so hard to understand about that?

    You know that those Nazi guys were German, right? Those fellows who carved Africa up among them at the 1884 Berlin Conference were French, Belgian, Italian, English, German, Austro-Hungarian, Dutch, Italian, etc, too; That was a white supremacist doozy.
