"Skyrim Mom" Is The Only Twitter Account You Need To Read Today

Bethesda community manager Nick Breckon has asked his 65 year-old mother to sit down and play Skyrim.

And while she does so, he’s tweeting what she’s saying.

Maybe not every word, but at least the good parts.

Sounds inane, but really, it’s wonderful.

    Sounds fake.

    “Who is skilled enough to know castle language?”

    *Facepalm* and what kind of 65 year old says something like that.

    Am I the only one that doesn’t think those posts are funny? It’s also clearly fake.

    No ‘o’ in ‘mum’.

    I’m just kidding – we shouldn’t tease them.

      A game where you’re a waterfall, and you must travel the land hiding cave entrances from adventurers.

        My all-time favourite was Photoshop: The Game. That was inspired.

    There’s no way that Nick GameGold GoldGame JeffBloom Breckon would fake a Skyrim mum twitter account.

      Grats Nick, fuck Nick

      Yeah, no, Nick would totally do something like this.

      Then again, what he’d also do is move across the country and break up a really great podcast.
