Hello! So I saw that skyrim is discounted on gog right now and I was wondering if the anniversary edition on gog would be good for modding. I read somewhere that the gog version isn’t compatible with dll SKSE mods. Is it worth getting on gog or should I wait for steam to discount it?
You may see some people refer to the baseline Skyrim as the AE as when the AE released the SE got baseline upgrades and some creation club content is included by default (fishing, survival mode, Saints and Seducers, and Rare curios) so it has been changed since the SE release.
The paid AE DLC only adds the rest of the creation club content. There are some interesting things in it, but nothing mandatory. You can pick and choose what you want though, so you’re not forced to run the entire pack. Just think of it as a bundle of paid mods that you’ll have to check compatibility to your other mods.
