When I watched theFallout TV showback in April, I never could have predicted what it would kickstart. In the series' wake, I had anoverwhelming desire to return to the Wasteland, which was a side effect that so many others experienced –Fallout 4 briefly rivalled the player countofHelldivers 2as a result. Feeling inspired to jump back in, I decided to hold out forFallout 4’s next-gen updatethat came some weeks later, but before I knew it, I was once again leaving Vault 111 on yet another rad-filled adventure. Having first experienced Bethesda’s RPG at launch almost 10 years ago, stepping back into it always makes me think back to where I was and what I was doing when it initially released. And oddly, it’s that particular kind of nostalgia that’s been following me around throughout the year.

I started out writing for the games section of a student-run website as an undergrad, and continued to write about games in my free time during retail and temp jobs for a number of years. Eventually, I earned an MA in magazine journalism at Cardiff University, and soon after got my first official role in the industry as a content editor for Stuff magazine. After writing about all things tech and games-related, I then did a brief stint as a freelancer before I landed my role as a staff writer here at GamesRadar+. Now I get to write features, previews, and reviews, and when I’m not doing that, you can usually find me lost in any one of the Dragon Age or Mass Effect games, tucking into another delightful indie, or drinking far too much tea for my own good.
