Emma's Adventures is a monthly column exclusively for Eurogamer supporters, written by Emma Kent, who has an uncanny knack for finding strange adventures in games. You can support Eurogamer for £3/€3/$3 a month to gain access to a whole variety of things.
As a treat for those of you who aren't supporters, though, we've decided to make Emma's debut adventure, How I made a fashion boutique in Fallout 76, available to all.
Until recently, I knew very little about the world of dressage. My main exposure to the sport was through the Olympics, which would roll around every four years and briefly mesmerise me with horses dancing to The Lion King soundtrack. It didn't hurt, too, that Team GB would typically rake in a cluster of medals each time, thanks to the unrelenting force that is Charlotte Dujardin. Yet beyond this, I knew very little of the sport: how it worked, how it was judged, or how demanding it could be.
