People of all ages love video games, this we know. But there's something extra endearing about senior folks who adore spending hours in RPGs, life sims, and more, and as Skyrim grandma Shirley Curry retires from her YouTube career, now seems like the perfect time to give a shoutout to Britta – AKA Food4Dogs – a seasoned JRPG superfan who I feel has given me a delightful window into my own future.

Now, let's make something clear right away – Britta is no newbie to this. She's been making gaming content on her YouTube channel for over seven years, and is constantly posting about the games she's playing on social media, too. Her latest tweet, for example, celebrates the launch of Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles and Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, as she poses with her PS5 copies in the garden. "The two most important Remasters this season for me," she writes, adding: "I'm in JRPG heaven."

Looking at her Twitter bio, you can see even more of that phenomenal taste in games. Self-described as "retired with nine Vitas and three 3DS," as well as "all consoles and PC," she lists: "SMT/PERSONA, FE, XENOBLADE, ATELIER, FALCOM, DQ, RUNE FACTORY, TEAM ASANO." So, y'know, she's basically one of the coolest people out there. And definitely owns more PS Vitas than the average person.

Meanwhile on YouTube, as Britta puts it, she does "unboxings, with a twist: I like to talk about the back history, the graphics and music of the game, giving some context to what comes out of the box." On top of that, she also posts "first impressions and gameplay videos, covering pretty much all platforms I play on."

Here at GamesRadar+, we're all in agreement that Britta is an absolute icon. And, I've got to say, seeing her posts sharing her excitement about Xenoblade Chronicles X, Metaphor: ReFantazio, and more, it feels like I'm looking at an older version of myself. I can only hope I'm half as cool as her in the future, though.

I'm GamesRadar+'s Deputy News Editor, working alongside the rest of the news team to deliver cool gaming stories that we love. After spending more hours than I can count filling The University of Sheffield's student newspaper with Pokemon and indie game content, and picking up a degree in Journalism Studies, I started my career at GAMINGbible where I worked as a journalist for over a year and a half. I then became TechRadar Gaming's news writer, where I sourced stories and wrote about all sorts of intriguing topics. In my spare time, you're sure to find me on my Nintendo Switch or PS5 playing through story-driven RPGs like Xenoblade Chronicles and Persona 5 Royal, nuzlocking old Pokemon games, or going for a Victory Royale in Fortnite.
