Beloved gaming influencer Shirley Curry, affectionately known as Skyrim Grandma, has embarked on her journey through The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered - with her community eagerly guiding her every step.
In her debut video titled 'Oblivion Remastered #1 Learning' on her 1.3 million-subscriber channel, the 89-year-old began exploring Bethesda's refreshed classic after completing the introductory sequence.
"Good morning grandkids. This is Oblivion Remastered," Curry greeted her viewers. "I've finally escaped those dark prisons and sewer tunnels you have to navigate before entering the open world. This is my first view of Cyrodiil."
Though adapting to the remaster's mechanics proves challenging, Curry maintains her signature curiosity - frequently stopping to admire scenery while mastering movement controls, camera angles, and of course, the notoriously difficult lockpicking system that vexes all players.

Her follow-up video 'Oblivion Remastered #2 Still Learning' continued documenting the learning process. "Prepare yourselves for plenty of frustrations from Grandma," she joked while navigating goblin-filled caverns.

The real treasure emerges from her supportive audience, flooding the comments with gaming wisdom:
"Welcome to Cyrodiil, Grandma Shirley!" one fan wrote, receiving her signature heart reaction.
"For third-person view, try pressing your mouse wheel on PC or clicking the right stick on controller - just like Skyrim! As for locks, most veterans rely on auto-attempts until reaching level 10. Consider visiting Nocturnal's Shrine for her unbreakable Skeleton Key quest. Alternatively, seek the Tower Stone's daily unlock ability by the Imperial City waterfront at night."
Another helpful tip: "Remember you can wait freely by pressing 'T' when no enemies are nearby to change the time of day," prompting Curry's grateful response.

Though Curry announced her retirement from regular content creation last year, expressing waning enthusiasm for production, her passion for Tamriel ultimately prevailed.
The Elder Scrolls community has permanently honored Curry's contributions with widespread recognition from fans and Bethesda alike. Following petitions, Bethesda confirmed Curry will appear as an NPC in the distant but much-anticipated Elder Scrolls VI.
While awaiting TESVI's eventual release, Skyrim's favorite grandmother now has Cyrodiil's sprawling landscapes to explore in Oblivion Remastered.
