It really depends how long you'd like to wait to properly mod and play the game. Dependinding on how many mods and what type you want to chuck in there the original Skyrim is known to CTD(Crash To Desktop) a lot, does that bother you a lot? Many things are happening around this community due to the SSE release regarding mods. I know I have both games. I modded the crap out of the original, but at one point I got frustrated, so I went on a long term hiathus. Now I'm back at it with SSE, and I've tried a lot of different things - but I really, really miss Sub Surface Scattering, and a few other graphic modifications which isn't available through ENB for SSE And looking through the forums about it (enb boris: google it), it might never work. It could become available through a combination of ReShade and Enb or perhaps standalone. Anyways, I'm not going to play or mod anymore before I see things on the next level. I never finished Skyrim in the first place. If some of what I wrote made sense to you, then I'm glad. Otherwise, don't mind me. I'm just a scatterbrain.
