Undeniably VS has lost out on some funding because of this situation but I'm sure the game will be fine. All they have to do is come down hard on this person. If they back him up and act like nothing bad happened the game will probably be a pariah.
People acting like he's had access to the whole game and put a virus in it are misinformed but that's because there has been no public statement. They only have screenshots of Discord posts and Reddit misinformation to go from.
