I haven't played Skyrim yet because I've been playing indies and JRPG's. For awhile I thought it wouldn't be the type of game I'd play, but I decided to try it out this time. I plan to get it in the coming days and was wondering if the Legendary Edition would be better. I see the Legendary Edition just has those 3 DLCs' but I don't even know anything about Skyrim besides its hype.

Anyway, which one should I get?

Edit: Thank you for your feedback guys! I'll be getting the Legendary Edition

Should you get it even without a controller ?

If you're a big gamer, it's probably less hassle to give up and get a controller, it will help with many of the other games that aren't very pc-friendly. :(

But there's also a "DSMfix" thing to go along with the "DSfix" and "DSCfix" fixes - apparently it helps a lot for KB+M. Sadly I can't say anything specific since I use a 360 controller I got for some other game years ago. Good luck!

Get the Legendary Edition while it's on a flash sale. It's an amazing deal and won't go lower for a while.

For now. Skyrim will likely be 50% off in a flash sale.

Except it's on a flash sale now, it's probably not getting any cheaper during this Summer Sale

No I mean't Skyrim the base game. It's only 30% off right now. It'll probably go lower.

Flash sales are normally the biggest sale prices.. if it's 33% on a Flash sale now why would it be cheaper later ?

I don't see it on flash (the base). I just see the legendary edition on flash. I was under the assumption they may discount the base game on it's own. Right now legendary is a flash price with 40% off. And Skyrim (base) is at 30%.

I could be wrong though.

Legendary. Look at it this way: If you like the game, you're going to want the DLCs.

If you're wondering about whether you'd like it, go watch some videos and read a bit about it. It's a lot easier than taking an arrow to the knee.

Legendary. Dawnguard isn't worth it, but Dragonborn probably is and you get Hearthfire free after that, basically.

IT"S NOT JUST THE DLC! :)

You also get infinite leveling, mounted combat and probably some other stuff too. There is no sane reason to get only the base game now, after years. :) I hope, I helped.

What is if you only have the normal version + all add ons, do you have the infinite leveling and mounted combat too?

Of course. Legendery Edition is just a simple bundle, that is all...

Do you have infinity leveling in the normal game too with the addons? If yes, then my bad. They shouldnt advertize it like a new thing ...

Infinite leveling and mounted combat were added in the Legendary Update, you will have it even if you don't have the DLCs.

Except it IS just the DLC, the infinite levelling etc. was just stuff they put in patches so you would get them even if you bought the bsse game. I'd still get the Legendary Edition though.
Proof here is where they added mounted combat, and here are the details on Legendary skills update.

Yeah thanks, other explained it too, I got it now. They just updated the base game with upgrade instead of releasing a "legendary update pack". Kinda nice from them. :)

Also, I will not delete my comment, so others will see this too, but I highly doubt there is someone else, who misunderstood this thing too. :P

Yeah it's confusing how they advertise Legendary Edition, trying to make it sound like it's got all these extra features, well it does but they also released them for free.

Hmm, good question! I've got too many other unplayed games right now, been telling myself to skip this one. :)

And once I'm ready to play it will probably be 75% off. :)

Get the legendary edition, the "DLCs" are really worth it - especially Dawnguard and Dragonborn, those aren't DLCs as you got to know them by now, but pretty much good old expansion packs with a big bunch of new content, etc. ;)

And even Hearthfire adds that nice little "I can finally build my home the way I want it" (granted: it doesn't really add anything new, but just having your own customizable house is nice enough).

If you can wait, wait. Legendary is on flash sale right now. Skyrim (base game) isn't. Wait til the last day and decide, unless you really want Legendary or cannot wait to see if the Skyrim gets more than a 30% discount.
