There are also a number of immersion-breaking bugs in LE - the one that springs to mind is that there is a small limit on the number of light sources that can be rendered at once, so complex modded interiors are prone to flickering.ДЄlso expanding on UltSky - it takes the game quite a long way away from the 'do whatever you want whenever you want' philosophy of the modern Bethesda games - so you get a more thematically coherent experience (that is much harder, in places) at the cost of it being a narrower experience for each character you play as. They don't deserve to make another cent on it. Because screw Bethesda at this point, especially where Skyrim is concerned.

Yeah I know it's against forum rules to advocate piracy, that's why I'm not. If I needed to repurchase it now I'd use a horrible dirty key selling site to buy the vanilla one if possible, or pirate the vanilla one if not. That money doesn't go towards supporting the developers who made the game doesn't reallt support many people at all, judging by the lack of effort put into SE, and really just pads their quarterlies.

I consider it morally grey to purchase SE at all (I got it for free as an existing Skyrim owner). At base, it was a spite move, an attempt to cash in on all the ongoing high player count Skyrim has, something Todd has openly stated he resents not being able to monetize.Д®ither way, it's grotesque, and was one of the final nails in the Bethesda coffin for me.

They could have let it stand on the Steam store as a separate product alongside vanilla, but they didn't - either because they didn't trust it to win the popularity contest, or because they wanted to artificially inflate its sales figures. They did give it to people who own the existing game, in fairness, but I think that was just to pad out the reviews with play stats and positive feedback.

Many developers release remasters for a nominal or DLC-like price SE was priced near enough like a full new release, despite just having what amounts to a few visual tweaks and despite not incorprating the countless well documented bugfixes carried out by the modding community over the years. They removed the vanilla version to force all future customers to buy that instead, something they could only do at all because modders have kept the base game alive and playable despite developer indifference to its half-finished state. That is a dev actively discontinuing availability of a beloved, award-winning and bestselling title, one which has already paid for itself a million times over in its first incarnation and in the form of countless lazy ports, one which has been endlessly sustained and extended in its lifecycle and appeal by volunteer modders - and the purpose of the discontinuation was to literally force customers to purchase the remastered version, a version which represents the publisher's best effort to make those modders redundant by duplicating and profiting from their overhaul efforts, a version which requires vastly more powerful hardware and takes up exponentially more disk space and which retains countless bugs and glitches, known and unfixed since the original release years ago. It's the pinnacle of laziness and greed and in Bethesda's case that was cemented by their decision to remove vanilla Skyrim from the Steam store when they released SE. It is part of a wider trend of crap, lazy remasters that smack of developers trying to jump on and monetize the 'overhaul' bandwagon modders have been pushing for years and turning out to be drastically incompetent at overhauls compared to the modders.

They reduced the FOV, upgraded the textures, lighting and particle effects slightly, added god rays, and it somehow tanked performance relative to what mods could achieve on the vanilla game with similar or better visual improvements. However, it would be very profitable for Bethesda to put those games on its launcher : it's very likely that Bethesda has signed an exclusive contract with Steam.My personal take on this, having played both, is that SE is a pile of poo.
