After watching the Fallout TV series I was determined to plunge back into the world of radiation and chaos in any way I could, bar starting a nuclear apocalypse myself. I decided that Fallout 76 would be my best bet, as I have a couple of friends still playing the game, and thought that I could just slot back into it.
It was pretty fun for a time, especially thanks to the latest expedition Atlantic City: America's Playground, which boasts a Casino district, a flooded city centre full of swamp thing lookalikes, and the Showman's Pier, which hosts a bloody but entertaining game show you can take part in. But after a while, it all started to wear thin. Although the world of Fallout is charmingly quirky, I felt as if it was missing something. Maybe I needed a story that had higher stakes, or a world that was even more gritty to explore. Whatever it was, I definitely wasn't going to find it in the wasteland. But after searching through my Steam library, I finally found the answer: Metro Exodus.
