You can do that? Stop playing a game when you're not having fun anymore?
- Don't let War Thunder players hear about this
  
  WoW players in shambles
  
  I'm pretty sure they just play the game so the have something to do between arguments about military secrets on the forums.
  
  Or Destiny players
- I can highly recommend it
- Quitting Dota 10 years ago was the best gaming decision I ever made. I still love the game but playing it made me nothing but miserable.
  
  we'll be miserable playing deadlock soon enough
Rumors are she took an arrow to the knee.
Sounds like she's doing what every bottom feeding streamer can't do.
Quitting cuz it isn't fun anymore.
Good for her.
- Sounds like she's doing what every bottom feeding streamer can't do.
  Quitting cuz it isn't fun anymore.
  Or most employed people
I thought she did that a year or so ago? Regardless, as much as I like Skyrim there isn't infinite content. Probably isn't worth the stress
- Yeah, it's in the article.
She's said this every year for the last 3 years at least 😆
She'll get back on that horse when ES6 drops
- She'll be over 100 by then!
  
  It's not called whippersnapper scrolls.
  
  so will we
- She'll be in it, whenever it drops.
- Saddle sold separately for just $5.99 a month plus a one-time fee of $15.99 + tax, processing, and S&H.
"I have a few older regular viewers", Curry said, "but most of them seem to be very young kids, children, and I'm not getting any feedback from them on the videos. All I get is 'Hi grandma, I love you grandma'. That isn't what I was spending my time on making and uploading videos for."
What did she expect? I mean this question seriously and in no way being disrespectful. Maybe she should start a community forum if she really wants to deep discussions about the game, her gameplay and herself. No one can expect that from YouTube comments. Or she could switch to another game, say Breath of the Wild. It would give her a fresh start and this can be exciting for her and her fans too.
I wish her good luck with whatever she does next. It's amazing that such a old person enjoys videogames and even gets fame of it.
