In a video titled

channel, the 89-year-old began her journey in Bethesda’s recently released remaster having just left the tutorial area.

“Good morning grandkids. This is Oblivion Remastered,” Curry began. “I am out of all that creepy jail and dungeon and sewers and all that mess you have to come through for so long before you ever get to come out of that into the world. This is the first thing that I see.”

Curry is struggling somewhat with Oblivion Remastered, asking for chat’s help on things like how to show her character from a third-person perspective. She spends a lot of her time looking around, exploring, and getting to grips with Oblivion Remastered’s movement, control scheme, and mechanics. And yes,

A second video, titled ‘

,’ was also mostly about getting to grips with the game. "I guess you're gonna have to hear an awful lot of complaining from me," Curry said while in a cave infested with goblins and giant rats.

But through it all are comments from helpful fans who are posting tips for Curry’s first few hours in the game.

“Wow, Grandma Shirley! Welcome to TES4!!!” reads one such comment, which Curry acknowledged with a ‘heart.’

“If you use keyboard, you can change from 1st Person to 3rd Person by clicking the mouse wheel button. On controller, it's the same as Skyrim: click the right joystick. Lockpicking is the worst in Oblivion! I just spam the auto attempt until I reach level 10. If I run out of lockpicks, I run out of lockpicks. Then I go to Nocturnal's Shrine and do her quest to be rewarded with the unbreakable Skeleton Key. Auto attempt to successfully unlock then becomes simple! There are also open lock spells, and a doom stone (like a standing stone in Skyrim) that will give you a lesser power to open a lock once a day. It's the Tower Stone. You have to activate it at night, and you can see it glowing from the Waterfront area of the Imperial City.”

Here's another helpful comment: "Glad to see your [sic] starting to get the hang of it Shirley, if you click wait you can choose what time of day you'd like but you can't near enemies." Curry responded to that one to say thanks for the tip.

Last year,

Curry's legacy with The Elder Scrolls franchise is already immortalised, of course.

and even developer Bethesda itself. Fans petitioned to have Curry immortalised in

and Bethesda eventually responded to announce she would get her own NPC character in the highly anticipated game.

The Elder Scrolls VI is no-doubt years from release, but in the meantime Skyrim Grandma has Oblivion Remastered to work through.
