There's a Youtube comment on her first Skyrim video that perfectly sums it up - "it's like watching Bob Ross paint his way through Skyrim."

I've known about her for 2-3 years now, and she's awesome.

I remember this heartwarming story. She seems really cool. I hope to still be gaming enthusiastically at that age.

I am really hoping her sons have warned her about the Internet and help manage her channel/Twitter/Facebook regardless. I have found elderly people get way more sensitive about being attacked and all of that jazz online as they're not as used to it as most of us.

Also, they did try to ruin this old man's Twitch channel/stream. Keemstar posted a video 'exposing' him and saying he was a convicted pedophile. He was proven wrong, very wrong. He's an example of an elderly person who isn't used to seeing/reading all the hate/harassment you can get online.

She's such a lovely lady, love watching her videos. The reason the Internet hasnth ruined this is because even the shitheads that are usually responsible for that think she's cool as hell.

And, she is lol

We r all grandkids here

I don't understand why this even seems so left field for people.

If you have been playing games since their inception you would be in your 60's now.

is another 22 years that much of a jump?

As said in the OP link she started playing games since she was over 60 years old (when her son gave her his copy of Civilisation II in the 1990s), not since the inception of games.

Also this seems left field because YouTube channels held by 82-year-old grandmas are, believe it or not, very rare.

Skyrim granny, she's been mentioned on the German game media quite a few times. Big fan of her, happy to see she'd get some new subscribers today.

The internet is not only a place of hate!

Known about her for a while. I'm subbed to her even though I have little interest in what she plays. Every few months I just like to watch a video of hers since its so wholesome and comfy.

This makes the "I'm a professional in my 30s and therefore too old to understand why people like and watch game streaming" guy from yesterday look even MORE like an idiot!

So glad to see the wide variety of gamers being supported on Youtube and Twitch!

I follow her on Twitter, which has recently introduced Nike burning videos into my timeline because she smashed that Like button.
