I often have nightmares. Playing horror games in my dreams lol. Wish I didn’t though, it’s kind of annoying.
What’s it called that thing, sleep paralysis? Worst shit.

I use have nightmares a lot as a child and in my early 20’s I suffered from night terrors mixed with sleep paralysis. That wasn’t fun times. Once I “woke” up to a python/Anaconda dropping from the selling and down onto my chest. It felt real, I can still remember the “weight” on my chest. Another “night terror”/sleep paralysis I had was once when I lived with 4 friends in a house. One night I “woke” up to a friend standing at the end of my bed. I remember just laughing and saying, you are so dumb Peter. This friend didn’t live in the house, I didn’t find it scary, but rather funny.
I talk in my sleep and somewhat began to semi sleep walk. Like pulling my girlfriend’s duvet off in the middle of the night to throw it into the shower. Due it being infested with piranha fish, I tried the same stunt another time, but this time her pillow was poisoned and she didn’t allow me to take it. It angered me.
My brother used to have bouts of somnambulism when he was little. I remember staying at a cousins place and he hit my cousin with a pillow.
My OCD makes getting sleep a nightmare. I sometimes have anxiety attacks at the tough of not getting sometimes, I often feel like I take longer to go to sleep than I feel should, I often gets tense or nervous before going to bed and some nights my mind races so much it takes forever to wind down even if I spend two hours winding down before bed.

Saw what you did there.

The funny thing is I only realised what I did there once I hit the post button. That was completely unintentional.
Am I going crazy or has the text the forum uses gotten larger?

Funny we talk about this.
I woke up last week punching and alert, because I had a dream of a blend of stressful memories.
I personally wouldn’t even qualify it as a nightmare.
As far as symbolism in dreams go though. I wouldn’t go for colours, or objects. But a large number of my dreams are conversations. And who I talk about, and what I talk about tend to be rather telling.
Most of the time it’s mundane, telling of the preceding days and their events. Some others it’s more toward my entire life, and self.
I even had a few times when useful informations, interesting connections came to me through it.
Some are still nightmares though. They are rather blunt (it’s realistic scenarios of me learning of the death of people I know), but they are still in a way symbolic. They are less about death, and more about regret, born from a general impression of personal alienation toward my own self, past, and those that are part of it.
Others are quite funny, for the absurdity of the conversation. The conversation itself is still normal, and makes sense. But it’s about bits and pieces brought into it that are completely disjointed. Most of the time I can still track down why they came back to me, as it usually have some rhymes and reasons.
The why of some of those connections can be quite symbolic though.
It’s mostly thematic.
Other times it’s mundane memories that decided to unearth themselves due to the thinnest, yet solid, of connection. This last one is the most captivating one to track down. And the reason I find them quite funny to look at when awake.
Special mention to the dreams I have when I’m sick. For some reason in those circumstances my mind decides to do an inventory of my memories and will make me dream of the most mundane, irrelevant memories in the world. I once dreamt of the way to use the circuit breaker in my old house, from when I was 8.

Every night, the dream is the same. Always the same image, the recurring nightmare that will give me no peace.

You could try speaking the words “Mind, be silent! Mind, be at peace!”
Have a fan on or something that produces white noise. Or use a website (even an app) called Noisli.
You could even try doing something called a body scan where you focus attention on your feet, then move up to your legs, etc. That, or focus your attention on some external stimuli. Anything to remove your focus from nagging thoughts.
I’d even suggest looking into meditation, but… Let’s not go crazy here. 
And just a reminder (totallynotachancetopushmytopic)

If by important you mean Joel’s child - yes, that did happen. But that’s just part of the story. The story is Ellie is immune to the spores, Joel has to protect her on the way to finding (who’ll we’ll later discover to be) a relative or father(?) of Abby, then becomes too attached to her to allow her to die. If anything it’s kind of a story of a father’s love, but also how stubborn Joel is to not do what’s best for the greater good. So in that light, he’s being selfish, but also being protective of Ellie… Too protective because he can’t let go (and deprives her of a choice to save humanity). Overall it’s more tragic than redemptive. Hell, any hope of redemption is destroyed in 2.
Unless you mean the (important person) doctor that Joel killed. That left a window open for the sequel. But that’s cliche? 
Well, maybe.
and on that note, the sequel is an underrated masterstroke.

I’ve thought of a meme but never saw it though. Not yet anyway. You’d have Abby on one side, then almost any of the female characters from the current Street Fighter games… But anyway.
Abby just looks weird being as muscly as she is. I’m not saying it’s a bad look (and I’m sure that fulfills a kink for some people) but I can’t help but laugh at how ridiculous it seems given the state of society/civilization in what is essentially a post-apocalyptic world. But I suppose it’s not impossible she could’ve stumbled onto a duffle bag full of roids somewhere while scavaging for resources.
did you miss the part of the game where they’ve built a mini society inside a stadium? with plenty of food and gym gear. getting muscular in that context wouldn’t be weird imo. women can absolutely get to her level without steriods, what are you talking about bro lmao
