SE being 64bit will allow -so- much more to be done than the LE, and it will be much more stable.įor now, I'm content playing SE in all it's vanilla glory because to me it's like playing a brand new game. But that's of course depending upon SKSE-SE releasing relatively soon. Right now, LE is king, but, personally (and of course, this is all guesstimate and assumption, because there's no real set time), I see SE surpassing the LE within a year of the SEs release. Once that's done (which has been guesstimated 6-12 months), many more popular mods will follow. Most popular mod authors have already updated and uploaded their mods for the SE. I completely understand that, but you realize it's going to take about 5 years or so before receiving such mod support. To be completely fair, I currently play Skyrim Legendary Edition with the 450 mod pack (And a few other added in such as open cities etc) and I've only had 1 CTD

What's your choice? Skyrim Legendary Edition with the 450 mod pack (The Journey) or Skyrim SE? Intense shadowing, complete ENB overhaul, god rays, new physics. Leveling as low as 0.1, and as fast as 2.0) but keep in mind, it's much, much more. And hey, if you don't like how 'slow' you level your skills or how 'fast' you level them, you can tweak them completely. I guess what I'm trying to ask is - Would you purchase Skyrim SE right now? Or would you purchase Skyrim Legendary Edition and install the 450 mod pack? This mod pack basically has what Skyrim SE has released with (Graphic enhancements, god rays, combat enhancements, skill enhancements, anything you can think of to be honest is within this pack.

Within this mod pack ( The Journey) includes everything you've probably downloaded (Unofficial patches, new worlds 'Falskaar' etc). Lots of Skyrim fans praise Skyrim SE for the improved graphics etc, but what about Skyrim with it's 450 mod pack labelled 'The Journey'
