"If you’ve never experienced Skyrim, the Special Edition is certainly an adventure you can’t afford to miss."

Attack of the Fanboy

"It’s showing its age and still suffers from the trademark Bethesda bugs, but The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition is a good enough excuse to warrant a return trip or...

"A wonderful recreation of Skyrim, which remains - despite rough edges and badly-aged elements - one of the greatest RPGs ever made."

A very great game. Although it was released 10yrs ago, its replayability is greatly enriched by its thousands of mods made by its awesome community. 10/10 would recommend to other gamers

Catch it on a sale, don't let Bethesda scam you.

Skyrim is, of course, already known by everyone, and their dogs. This version of it is a good port, and well worth the money IF you don't already have the dlc. Depending on what you want from this game, there's a lot of different options for different budgets at this point. But overall, maybe try to catch it on a sale. Bethesda really doesn't need our Skyrim money for the 5th time.
