@ThereThere ahh sweet, cheers! I'll keep an ear out for those white wines and give them a taste if i ever get offered one!

There's another red wine I like actually, it's got a picture of a kangaroo on it and I think it's called like jammy red roo or something

@ThereThere @ralphdibny I always have Hock white wine when I'm over at my parents. It is defo my fave as white wine can either be too dry or sweet, and this is neither.

I've never been a fan of red wine, it always gives me a headache regardless of how much I drink. And I can't drink cider as I got really ill form drinking way too much when I was younger, and it turns my stomach every time I try it. 😂

@ThereThere I'll keep an eye out for the Brooklyn one but don't think I've seen it in the Sainsbury's or Morrisons near me.

I had another AF one called Clear Head when I was out recently which is from the Bristol Beer Factory brewery. It was very nice and I think 5% of the sales go to a mental health charity too. I might order a crate at some point as I don't think it's in supermarkets.

@ThereThere I quite like Leffe. Mostly cause the bottles have gold foil to roll into balls and pelt at my brother. I’m rather ashamed to say that due to Covid hitting when it did, I’ve been to about two pubs since I’ve turned legal and so my only experience with beers is from bottles. By all accounts, draft is where it’s at so I’ll need to get out sooner than later.

@nessisonett That first pint after a while always tastes golden! 👌

I'll have to keep an eye out for everyone's recommendations!!

I probably haven't had a Leffe in like a decade. Or a Hoegaarden. I don't think I liked either that much tbh. I've definitely settled on what I like and I don't like change! 😅 (jk....sorta)

Sony said no one gives a sh-t about other characters when Marvel offered the other characters for 25 million. So if thats the case…

Well I think the fact that the MCU has gone on to gross around $22 billion dollars (if you don’t include the Spider-man: Home… trilogy numbers) proves that isn’t the case 😉

@RogerRoger ah damn… well hopefully it isn’t too bad and you’ll be back with dual-shock 2 in hand before you know it. Hope it heals up real soon 👊

Random question; I'm looking to purchase and play Frogun tomorrow as I've got the evening off, but I noticed that the release date on the store still says "soon". Is it normal for (smaller) games to not have a release date on the store?

Does anyone else dream about the game they’re playing?
It’s happened to me 2-3 times this week. One of the dreams was more like a nightmare — being chased by one of the big alien beasts from GotG.
For me, I think I dream about a game when I put a lot of hours into it that day, or if I play late at night right before bed.

@Th3solution It's been a while but I have had it happen. When I was a kid I woke with my arms stretched in the air imitating holding a pad.

I've dreamt about being in Hyrule fighting Gannon alongside link when I played OoT when I was 16.

@Th3solution I don't so much dream of the game I'm playing but if I play a game and go straight to sleep afterward then my dream is shaped like that game.

When I was playing a lot of Picross, my dreams had a lot of squares across the image.

Talos Principle had me solving really complex puzzles in my dreams.

Most recently, Greedfall had me waking up to a fading image of a dream that was framed as if it was the inventory screen.

Its fairly unpleasant/uninteresting so I try and remember to YouTube myself to sleep to get the game mechanics out of my subconscious.

@Th3solution I’ve found my dreams being horribly vivid since going on medication. Not so much to do with games, although I did dream about pulling my finger bones out after pulling on a loose bit of skin. Like when you have a feather cushion and you pull them out.

@JohnnyShoulder Now imagine waking up utterly convinced that it was real 😂

@Th3solution Most of the dreams I remember are rather bizarre, but I do sometimes dream of what I'm playing. They seem to occur if I've been playing something quite intensively, or if it's an unreleased game that I'm really looking forward to. Back in the days before we could find out a lot of information online, those dreams would usually not bear any relation to the actual finished games! A few times I've dreamt of strategies to get through with tricky battles in RPGs, and then naturally completely forgotten them soon after waking up. The other day I had a dream about my cat who recently passed away. I think it was because I'd been playing Stray, and the cat in that is ginger, too.

Beast? How dare you.
