Yeah it's worth playing if you haven't before. The graphics are pretty dated now (not a problem if you are going to use graphics mods) and the UI is horrible (mods to fix that too) but when you're not fighting the UI the game itself offers a lot of freedom to do your own thing in a pretty huge world.

Bethesda is removing more and more rpg elements fallout 4 is so bad compared to new vegas i bet the new elderscrolls will suffer the same fate

yeah skyrim is fun but only if you download a few mods to improve the game first otherwise its pretty damn booring without mods i wouldnt have played it so for many hours without them

Nope, there is Creation Club, where there are some paid mods, but most of us get our mods from Nexus, and it is super easy to mod your game if you know what you are doing.

There are tons of mods from Oldrim been ported over to SSE, also it is simple to port over mods yourself.

Yes. Get a decent ENB and its looks as good as most modern games

Turning your computer off is better than playing Fallout 4.

As disappointing as fallout 4 was, with enough mods it turns into a pretty fun game. Same with Skyrim. But base skyrim is far ahead of Fallout 4. And fallout 4 tends to break easy with mods.
Witcher 3 is better than both. I'm surprised CD project wont make another Witcher, maybe create your own witcher or something

If you never played it then most definitely. Heck, I finished Skyrim several years ago on PS3 and at this date I'm heavily invested in it (again) on Steam / PC.

I don't necessarily agree with the comments on dated graphics. The Special Edition has done a nice job on making things look a bit better and well... is a game really about the graphics and the way it looks or about gameplay?

In my opinion Skyrim is a game that can easily be enjoyed without mods, though I do admit that I'm having tons of fun with several of them (though at this point I don't "overmod" my game; it's all still decently vanilla'ish, mostly enhanced graphics, bug fixes (unofficial patch) and a few follow tweaks).

The most important thing is asking yourself if you're into exploration, puzzles (pretty easy ones) and a bit of good fantasy roleplay :)

I think it's totally worth it. As said above, the graphics are dated, but that's nothing a few good mods can't fix.

Absolutely worth playing, no doubt. I as well didn't enjoy Fallout 4 as much, the environment of Boston didn't really appeal to me compared to Skyrim's world. Give it a shot.

IS SSEavaliable to buy as a stand alone game? If so you might consider buying it.

I'd say it's definitely worth it but going from W3 to Skyrim might be a bit of a let down.

TESV is a great game and not having a forced protagonist is nice but W3 does nearly everything better.

It's because the story was pretty much if not entirely over. I'd rather them make new IPs rather than run the series into the dirt.
