CORE 383: DISUNITY

Turns out teens remain hooked on Fortnite, Minecraft, and sometimes Warzone. Unity's clash with game devs, featuring a statement from RedHook, the Darkest Dungeon creators. Unity hasn't backed down yet, sparking worries about costs for Sony and Microsoft. John Riccatello's problematic history (EA) is discussed. Devs are scrambling to switch to Unreal or Gadot engines. Also, check out Scott's top five core games on the "MORE CORE" video series. In "Week in Gaming," Starfield shines, and Fae Farm and WWE 2K23 are mentioned. They later explore Steam reviews and cover news like Sony's State of Play, Nintendo Direct focusing on Switch 2, Cyberpunk 2077's Phantom Liberty trailer, Apple's push for native gaming on new iPhones, Dune Spice Wars' 1.0 launch, and Xbox's GamePass CORE. We end with emails and texts, including a fan's "Oct-Beau-ber Fest" suggestion for Beau's full-time gig and someone confessing they've never played Half-Life 2.
