CORE 372: Diving With Dave (Patreon)

In this episode of CORE 372, the main topic is the early release of Baldur's Gate 3 on August 3 for PC, with a delay for the PS5 version to September 6.  The developers aim to achieve 60 frames-per-second on PS5 and prioritize  quality over rushing the release. The hosts discuss their recent gaming  experiences, including Final Fantasy XVI, Diablo 4, and various Steam Next Fest demos. They also mention mods for games like Deep Rock Galactic and Crysis in VR. The episode features a game show segment called "Dear  Martha," where they guess which game a review is about. They touch upon  news about Microsoft CEO's stance on exclusives, Bobby Kotick's view on  Gamepass, World of Warcraft Classic adding Hardcore Realms, the Steam Summer Sale, and BlizzCon 2023 ticket prices. Additionally, they receive an email addressing a  discussion on Final Fantasy 6 and 7's merits. The episode concludes with  news about a patron creating a hacked ROM of Super Techmo Bowl for NES,  where patrons' names will be included in the game.
