Days Gone Director Unhappy With Astro Bot Cameo

As you may expect, Astro Bot contains Days Gone cameos, including a bot donning Deacon St John’s outfit. Unfortunately, this just didn’t sit right with former Bend Studio vet, John Garvin.

Taking to Twitter, Garvin, the same vet who bashed gamers for waiting for sales to buy the game, expressed his dissatisfaction with Deacon being “reduced to promoting other games” before trashing the studio. Of course, he’s become kind of known for his harshness toward people who disagree with him and his bluntness.

In a separate post, he brandished Astro Bot as a “small game,” despite what looks to be a large part of Sony’s marketing department backing the game. While we can understand his frustration, calling this a “cartoon schill” is a crazy thing before then telling people who think he’s overreacting to “sit down” and that “adults are talking.”

Days Gone Lead Tells Fans To “Buy It At F***ing Full Price”

Days Gone

Days Gone creative director, John Garvin, has told people to stop complaining about the title not having a sequel. He went to speak with David Jaffe, in which he gave gamers a hard pill to swallow. Particularly, the ones who complain about the award-winning game not having a sequel.

“If you love a game, buy it at f***ing full price. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen gamers say ‘yeah, I got that on sale, I got it through PS Plus, whatever’.”

He went on to admit that he doesn’t know the exact numbers, but knows it’s defiantly nowhere near the millions other games, like God of War, got.

“It’s like, God of War got whatever number millions of sales at launch and, you know, Days Gone didn’t. [I’m] just speaking for me personally as a developer, I don’t work for Sony, I don’t know what the numbers are.”

This interview comes not long after it was reported that Days Gone 2 was refused because of the game’s mixed reception.
