Skyrim Grandma Returns—Now Learning Her Way Through Oblivion Remastered
Hey everyone, today I want to talk about something truly heartwarming and special happening in the gaming world. If you’ve been around the Elder Scrolls community for a while, chances are you already know the name Shirley Curry , affectionately known as Skyrim Grandma . For over a decade, she’s been a soothing, calming presence on YouTube—sharing her adventures through the world of Skyrim with that soft voice, genuine curiosity, and a grandmotherly charm that made her a fan favorite.

But now, something new is happening: Skyrim Grandma has officially become Oblivion Remastered Grandma .
That’s right. Shirley is diving into The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered , and let me tell you—it’s both hilarious and heartwarming. She posted her first videos on the remaster just recently, and true to form, she titled them “Learning” and “Still Learning.” And honestly, that’s the perfect way to describe the experience. Shirley is wandering through Cyrodiil for the first time like it’s a brand new world—which, to her, it really is. In her own words, “Sorry guys, you know I have to look at everything. I’ve never been here before.” And watching her stop to admire flowers, get confused by the clunky movement, and lovingly scold the game for being difficult—it’s just peak wholesome content.
She admits the game feels clunky, calling the movement "ugly," and she laughs through her frustration as she tries to figure out Oblivion’s more chaotic systems. At one point, she literally says, “This stupid thing won’t die!” while struggling through combat. But it’s all done with such sincerity and charm that you can’t help but smile.
And here’s the beautiful part—just a while ago, Shirley said she was done with Let’s Plays. She felt burnt out and uninspired. But now, here she is, back at it, thanks to Oblivion Remastered. Maybe it’s nostalgia, maybe it’s the community support, maybe it’s just the joy of discovering a new world at 89 years old—but whatever it is, it’s working. The gaming world is lucky to have her back.
If you haven’t watched her recent videos yet, do yourself a favor and check them out. They’re a masterclass in what makes gaming special—not just the action or the graphics, but the wonder, the exploration, and the ability to share it all with others. Shirley Curry reminds us that it’s never too late to start a new adventure.
And hey, if Skyrim Grandma is still learning, maybe we all are.
