You've come a long way, "Frenzy"....

2013 Masterpiece,  2023 SS86,   and  1984 G1
 

Well... even the narrator in BG3 is quite nice on the eyes
 
Really, for a while I thought it was Claudia Black (one of the sexiest voices of all time, btw; also just generally hot as well... Claudia was "Sam" in Gears of War games, and Dahlia in The Originals along with several other tv/movie roles)...in the game she sounds  like a younger version of her.

Apparently some sort of GIJOE RAH beat em up game is being developed for next year.

That inspired me to contribute to VGM Fridays....
 
 

DangerousJ dodging Idalia
 

I dodged a bullet with Idalia. Tampa had flooding but relatively minor compared to the big bend area north of us.

A.K.I. makes Juri look like a well adjusted individual.

oh yeah, Criminal Minds is one of the best crime shows ever made, imo... it and Chicago PD are my favorites.
 
The mention of dreams randomly brought to mind this one from years ago--- I was part of the entourage of some celebrity; I forgot who it was... but the thing was he was about to announce a run for the presidency at a press conference/stage area.  One of the other "crew" then gave me a fur coat and said "here, hold on to this...just in case." so I was left there holding the fur coat wondering "...just in case what...?  What's the fur coat about?" as the celeb and some of the crew went on stage to address the crowd and make the announcement.
 
My latest one wasn't really much though... it was about a Transformer figure I had that would become the Earth's moon as the alternate form.. but sometimes it would transform on its own.... but it also had a connection to the real moon for some reason.
 
*Dreaming about being a character in a show---that's another cool one I wish would happen more often.  I've had ones where I met up with the GI Joes.... one where I was a character in All My Children, and another where I was a close friend of the Mikaelson family on The Originals. (that one was especially cool; I basically took the place of the "Marcel Gerard" character)

My grandad didn't even really drink, used to home remedy with hot whiskey, honey, and lemon whenever he'd be sick enough.

Unfortunately I didn't get the "free" time off (we had a special leave time for anyone that got covid; it did not count against your normal sick leave balance) when I had it... since I didn't know that's what it was at the time... I thought it was just a cold and possible sinus or ear infection.  None of the symptoms were anything outside the ordinary.  My appetite was completely gone though... I was only eating chicken noodle soup on occasion....more out of obligation as opposed to actual hunger cravings.  The worst of it lasted close to a week....didn't find out until later when taking a covid test prior to another appointment.

$80 for a year subscription....Almost makes me look at and be like "...Do I need to play online that bad?"
 
Edit:  This is really starting to make me reevaluate some things here honestly because I'm thinking about what I actually play online on the PS5 and the answer is very little.   Yeah I'm playing SF6 now but I could easily just buy SF6 on Steam aaaaand...not have to pay $80 a year to play it with people AND I'd have access to the full base of people to play with.  Most of the games I have across PS4/PS5 have been singleplayer for the most part so the benefits of paying that much for someone like me isn't that beneficial.  They're making me actually start considering buying digital games on Steam just avoid having to pay $80 a year to play game that's free to play on another platform.  That's not really a good look.  Curious of what Xbox is going to do/not do in response to this.
 
Edit 2:
Thinking about it even more if the reason for the price hike is due to the "Free" games that they give out each month then it'd be nice if they'd create a lower tier that gave people the choice to cut those games out at a cheaper price.  I doubt that they're going to do that unless they get enough pushback.
