After nine long years of posting gaming content, the beloved Skyrim Grandma has announced that she will be stepping away from the virtual world of Skyrim. While she will no longer be creating gaming videos, she reassures her fans that she will still be posting on YouTube from time to time.
In a world where video games are often seen as a hobby for the younger generation, it's refreshing to see someone like 72-year-old Shirley Curry, also known as Skyrim Grandma, making a name for herself in the gaming community. And she's not the only one - 88-year-old Shirley Curry and 72-year-old YouTuber, who goes by the name "Minecraft Grandpa," have also gained a large following for their gaming content.
In her latest video, titled "No more gaming videos," Skyrim Grandma explains her decision to stop posting videos of herself playing Skyrim. "It doesn't make me too happy, but it's something that I feel now that I have to do," she says. "I'm old and I'm tired, and I don't feel like doing much anymore."
The video has already been viewed over 240,000 times in just two days, a testament to her dedicated fanbase of 1.3 million subscribers. Shirley explains that she has been feeling burnt out from spending so much time on her computer, and the thought of making another gaming video no longer brings her joy.
"It seems like I spend most of my time sitting in here at this computer," she shares. "And lately, probably for the last month, I walk in here and look at my computer and think, 'I've got to make a video today.' And then I just shake my head at myself and say, 'I don't want to. I have no desire to,' and I turn around and I walk back out."
Despite her decision to stop creating gaming content, Shirley assures her fans that she will still be posting vlogs about her life and adventures. She also plans to finally make the quilt she's been wanting to make with the newfound time in her schedule.
For the past nine years, Shirley has been entertaining her fans with her Skyrim gameplay, narrating her adventures as she played through different characters. And even though the game is now almost 13 years old, Bethesda has confirmed that they are working on The Elder Scrolls 6, which could potentially bring Skyrim Grandma back to the gaming world.
In the meantime, Shirley's fans can continue to support her by following her on social media and signing up for her newsletter. She also encourages her fans to leave comments and engage with her content, as well as submit their own gaming features and letters through the Submit Stuff page on her website.
As we bid farewell to Skyrim Grandma's gaming videos, we can't help but wonder if The Elder Scrolls 6 will entice her to make a comeback. For now, we will continue to cherish the memories and adventures she shared with us through her videos. Thank you, Skyrim Grandma, for inspiring us and showing us that age is just a number when it comes to pursuing our passions.
