The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition

View Stats:
Dawnguard, Dragonborn, Hearthfire included?
Im wanting to buy this for my lover for christmas and I was wondering if i buy it will the other downloadable content from the original game be included with it? And will i be able to add mods to it like i was able to with nexus on the original.

Or will I have to buy the original game, with the expansions, and then buy the skyrim special addition or will the special addition already be added freely to his library after i buy the original and the expansions with it?

You can just purchase the SE edition, it is a standalone, not an update....and it does come with all 3 DLCs.

Mods can be gotten at nexus or bethesda website, though there are not nearlt as many mods (yet) for the SE version as there is for the original version.

Skyrim SE was free for users who already owned Skyrim w/ all 3 DLC's prior to Oct. 28th.
As for Skyrim SE dont expect any mods right away, stick with OG if want to continue with your mods :) Hoped this helped in any way

I think thats the best idea, now that i think about it since I can just get shadders installed for the original.

Your saying the expansions will already be added if I buy the special addition by itself?

There are already some good mods i mean def 90% less than Skyrim regular but i keep adding mods daily only at like 22 mods

But For the Original Skyrim SE is A seperate Game From skyrim / Skyrim SE comes with all the dlc you would still have to buy the original skyrim's dlc

Another thing to consider in favor of the Skyrim Special Edition is that it is now 64-bit so down the road the potential for better and more stable mods is promising.

it is very subjective, but I like the new lighting, DOF and god rays. There are already some good texture and mesh mods. And, I don't think ENB is quite ready but some Reshade presets are already out there. At this point for longevity I would get the Special Edition unless your partner's computer is older.

These are 2 different games.
If you buy Skyrim SE then it has all the DLC's included.
You can buy original Skyrim and DLC's if you want but I repeat ... it is a seperate game.
There are already many mods for Skyrim SE ... look on nexus

I know they are sepertate games, i said nothing about an update. But now im a bit iffy on which to get for him since his computer is not very stable with running high effects. He is going to be getting a new graphics card soon then again...
