Skyrim Grandma shoots down rumors of Starfield NPC appearance: 'I'm not in the game'

Shirley Curry, better known to gamers as Skyrim Grandma, said in a new video that despite the apparent Easter egg in the recent Starfield Direct showcase, she's not going to appear in Starfield as an NPC. She's also not going to play Starfield, because she's "too angry" that she (and the rest of us) are still waiting for Elder Scrolls 6.

Curry rose to fame in 2015 when a Skyrim "let's play" video she posted to YouTube attracted thousands of responses—and brought her thousands of new followers. She's continued to post videos to her YouTube channel since then, growing in popularity to the point that in 2021 Bethesda announced that she will be included as an NPC in The Elder Scrolls 6. She has also, understandably, expressed some impatience with Bethesda on that front: She was 79 when she first came to fame, which puts her at or around 87 now.
