This wouldn't be the first time that Garvin has had issues with Sony, Bend Studio or the gaming community as a whole. Gamers might recall that Garvin previously went on a tirade a few years ago, blaming Days Gone's poor reception on so🌌-called "woke reviewers."

Those words prompted Bend Studioꦡ to issue a statemen🍎t of its own, where the Oregon-based 🍎♈entity said in part, "Bend Studio does not share his sentiment, nor does it reflect the views of our team."

Prior to that, Garvin took aim at gamers w🦋ho don't purchase games at full price. This was in response to Days Gone being a featured PlayStation Plus title for the 🙈month.
