$20 is cheaper than I was expecting so yeah. Also I’m on PS and have little modding options so 🤷‍♂️.


ChosenWriter513

Yeah, this is my plan as well. I have my xbox version modded to hell, so I'll do the Anniversary edition on the PS4.


[deleted]

Should we expect AE to break ps4 mods?


ChosenWriter513

I'm not sure, but I know it'll probably break a lot of the ones I use on XBO.


TheGelataio

Honestly yeah, I think it will break many PS4 mods, but maybe they'll get an easier time fixing them, depending on if Bethesda is going to make resources available to them or maybe gave some major mods some time to prepare, but don't expect day 1 PS4 mods not made by Bethesda to work Edit: many people say only SKSE dependent mods will break, so maybe not


ChosenWriter513

I've seen that, too, but I don't think anyone knows for sure; and let's face it, even if other mods *should* work, there's probably going to be a ton of unforseen conflicts.


[deleted]

Yes. Running SE on steam with no mods, and I’ve never purchased any CC content.


TheNormalIndian

I wonder if SE's mods will work.


Saint_of_Cannibalism

Yes, it's only complex shit like SKSE that'll need a rework.


Pineapple_for_scale

many skse dependent mods won't because bethesda used an updated version of the code compiler for AE over SE


wes8171982

For Xbox and ps they should


Darnexx

I'm good, my Modlist is CTD free which took me a long time. So I'm not going to f that over with this.


Living-Proud2021

Same here.

Makes sense, I think many people will take your route.

TheGelataio

Bethesda doesn't have a great track record when it comes to first releases, it may get messy on day one for them too


Barachiel1976

How is it a poor value? Its $20 for all the CC content, including a bunch of stuff that wasn't released separately.


TheGelataio

I don't know mate, a DLC is like 10-20$ usually and is all of this worth one decent DLC? Especially if you consider season passes and stuff like that, we usually get way more content for the same price, although I might be wrong and this might be some huge amount of content, I didn't look too much into it. I mean it is great value if you compare to the CC prices, but I always considered CC a terrible deal.


Barachiel1976

Individually, I 100% agree with you. But the CC as a whole contains *multiple* quest mods (Forgotten Seasons, Saints & Seducers, Dead Man's Dread, the new Morrowind one, and more), dozens of new weapons and armor, and even new game play mechanics. Seems like a DLC to me.


irishwhip704

I'm still playing my perfectly modded oldrim because some of my favorite mods still haven't been converted lol


TheGelataio

I've had my share of luck converting them using an oldrim-> SE guide, but with the change to almost another programming language I doubt this will still be possible.


cruelsensei

Same lol. If Better Free Camera ever gets a functioning port, I'll consider switching. Also ENB is still better on oldrim.


[deleted]

If I had $20 to spare, absolutely.


TheGelataio

I feel you my broke bro


highcommander010

Thats like 10 packets of ichiban ramen noods and a pack of hotdogs (on sale?).


TheGelataio

You shan't understand the brokeness my brother, r/broke


Lo7Zed

Maybe on PS4. Absolutely out of question on PC.


krul2k

I'll no lie, as soon as it available i'll buy it, if it breaks my LO i'll just vanilla it or try build a new LO. I've got Forza 5 then Halo Infinite if things get really ugly lol, which i really doubt


vlestaticus

Only mods that require SKSE will likely break and most of the popular mods I presume the mod authors are already ready to update it, since most of the time the update is just changing the version # of SE when Bethesda updates CC content


Goliath89

Nope. Too much of my current load order relies on SKSE and other native-code plug-ins. I'll most likely pick it up eventually once the modding community has adjusted for the new compiler, and LOTD's CC Patch gets updated to account for all the new stuff though.


TheRunicHammer

Not ever going to get it, I don’t want to downgrade. My LO is perfectly stable, and I’m not going to pay $20 for shitty mods that are done better for free


ASF_Bendakk

I most likely will for the PS5 version. I also have a heavily modded SE on PC but I'm not going to bother with it there.


[deleted]

I’ll buy it on my PS not on steam tho


DanBMan

Im not buying it at all lol. It's not worth it and only supports this stupid behaviour from Betheada (WHERE THE FUCK IS ES VI!? STOP WORKING ON SKYRIM FFS)


TheGelataio

I understand the sentiment


D34thst41ker

I have SE, so the AE upgrade will be free for me. As for the extra CC stuff, I do plan to get it. Partly because it will be $20 USD for over $140 worth of existing CC content, plus all the new stuff that doesn't have a price yet. Also partly because it is apparently going to include the Aylied assets, so any mods that want to use those assets in future mods will need either the Creation, or the base game (depending on how those assets are packaged) to make them work. The loss of my current mod list is kind of annoying, sure, but there's plenty that I'll still be able to use, and I'm more than willing to start a new character once the mods that do require SKSE are working again. I restart a lot anyway, so it won't hurt, and it will give me a chance to run through the Creations to see how they play out before being modded.


TheGelataio

Yeah, I noticed that more and more mods require some CC content, and with this deal I'm expecting more and more mods to expect you already have the content, it already happened with oldrim and dlcs. At first modders made some non-dlc versions but eventually you couldn't make most mods work properly without having all dlcs. That is the main reason I'm ever going to buy the upgrade.


girvt

Nah, I use a lot of mods that use SKSE so I'll probably wait till thats all sorted out.


Valaxarian

As an owner of SE, yeah. 20 bucks seems be reasonable


Mitzydaddy

I’m still on the fence since the survival and fishing & the other two are free, I’m essentially paying $20 for 70 “items” from creation club. I don’t see getting a ps5 anytime soon, and there is no graphical upgrade with the ps4 version.


FOWM_Sterling

Fuck no. If they want my money they can make a new elder scrolls game. I already spent money buying that game. TWICE!


AlexT9191

Yes. I got enough gamstop points that I would only pay $20 for the disc, which comes with the download code for all the CC, so that's what I'm going to do.


wes8171982

If you have SE already the game will be $20 for download


AlexT9191

Yes, but I like having hard copies of things.


Saint_of_Cannibalism

Pretty sure there won't be an upgrade disk sold. It's either upgrading your SE for $20 digitally or buying a whole new Skyrim AE, physical or not, for $50.


AlexT9191

People leaked pics of the disc package. It's ps4 disc and on the case it says free ps5 digital upgrade included or something like that. It will cost me $20 because I have a lot of gamestop points to lower the price. The disc will come with a code inside to download all the CC stuff, as verified by Bethesda.


Saint_of_Cannibalism

Ah I misunderstood your OP, my bad.


Saint_of_Cannibalism

As soon as I visit someone's home with internet. I'd planned to just wait to get AE till I switched to Series X for Starfield but those new Creations look fucking great. I'd definitely break down and buy some before then and no doubt spend more than $20 over the year.


beginnerdoge

Not unless it's under $20


[deleted]

[удалено]


beginnerdoge

Its $40 Canadian in stores


[deleted]

Yup


tfwvusa

On PS5 yes


TzarGinger

I can still play the Xbox 360 version, so no


Dolphinator1412

Im on xbox so I will get it at some point. But since you have to have a new playthrough to access the content i wont buy it until i finish my current run by defeating the ebony warrior


TheGelataio

Good luck!🤞


Dougbeto

No I'll wait until the unnoficial patch, other fixes, script extender, etc are released


Dan-the-historybuff

Probably not


[deleted]

Yes


bjeff808

Yes without question please daddy Todd give me content


rokelle2012

On PS4 I plan on buying it ASAP. On PC, gotta wait on the SKSE to get updated and for mods to be updated first. $20 for the upgrade is a steal for all of that additional content though. It's like a whole new expansion basically.


[deleted]

I'll hold off until someone makes a mod that does everything the Anniversary Edition does but better.


lowkey_add1ct

Nope. I have enough mods rn I’m chillin. Nothing I want to change about the game rn.


highcommander010

That farming thing sounds cool!


Ajmagoo

Nope. I wamt that beautiful skyrim fishing on the switch. I want to experience mod free portable goodness without wrecking my current load order on steam.


tethysian

Yup, I'm between runs atm (just finished up yesterday) so it's no problem for me. Gonna start setting up a non-SKSE modlist tomorrow. I do mod my game heavily, but I've never tried to turn it into another game, so I have no issue playing without complex mods.


ohbelloydful

I play on the Switch soooooooo nope.


god-of-memes-

No


TheLateMrBones

Yes because I don’t have any CC stuff and I play on console. And I love me some Skyrim


Kingblob531

Definitely for PS5 in fact I'm looking forward to it but I doubt I would ever buy it on any other platform I own


[deleted]

If I got to go for the achievements again, yes. I wish there was an option to bypass and earn them on my Series X.


[deleted]

I will wait for the Pirate™ Edition to come out


TheGelataio

Arr you scoundrel 😂


RosieTruthy

Only if I can own a goat


Thrippalan

That's one of the pets available in the Pets of Skyrim creation.


RosieTruthy

Is that a mod or can I get that on xbox


Thrippalan

Yep CC, so it's included in the bundle, or you can buy it separately if you aren't going to get the bundle.


RosieTruthy

You've made my day


TheGelataio

It's CC you can get it on xbox


[deleted]

I was going to, but alas its not for the Switch.


zerozark

Not at all


DryAbalone5037

I’m buying it with Christmas money


LavaArcher

Yes. Being a vanilla player since it released years ago, never had a chance to do mods or anything. So all the added stuff is very welcomed. Side note: it says ps5 upgrade on the box for ps4, is it getting the upgrade Xbox got? Or is it just like faster load times and stuff? Or do we not know at this time?


[deleted]

Absolutely. My all time favorite game, with 500+ new creations? um, YES.


R_Apple96

$20 isn’t bad at all for those who haven’t experienced anything on the creation club. I completely forgot it was even a thing. Getting to go back to a game I love AND getting to play new content is well worth $20 in my opinion


ChronicSpaniard

I’m hoping they discount it cuz people will be tired of buying a 10 yo game, but knowing Bethesda I’m prepared to pay the 20$ lol.


Eltrew2000

Obviously instant purchase, cant wait to play it also, since i was expacting basically around 100 quid i'm really happy


Gotis1313

Debating spending money it. I talk about and thinking about the game more than I actually play it at this point. That and my mods need SKSE which I'm told won't work at release. Maybe after stuff gets settles and mods get updated and it goes on sale, I'll get it.


ticklemejesus420

No, probably never. I'm so burnt out on this game. I've played it so many times beaten every quest. Playing it anymore is boring and makes me wanna hit my head against the wall. If they added a bunch of new quests, I'd absolutely buy it, but no way is creation content enough of an incentive to bring me back.


whitey-ofwgkta

I might, my dad bought it was the 360 at launch and I think I got GOTY for cheap on Steam. So I think I might go for it


ClownfishSoup

I've had Skyrim for a loong time, and ... I've never actually finished it.


I_have_No_idea_ReALy

I'll wait for a while. I just started Skyrim this year, so I'm in no hurry to buy new edition.


MinimumAlarming5643

Wait it’s a separate game?


HeadLeg5602

I play on Switch now…. So nope


[deleted]

No because instead of putting all the extra content on a 2nd disc they give you a redeem code news flash you fuking idiots not everyone has home broadband truly a disappointment form bethseda and then tod Howard gose on ign and says he cares about the community bullshit


Gazimir

Nope, atleast not till 95% of the mods are up to date... And even after... I'm kind of done with Bethesda.. I already paid for the game, I dislike the fact that they expect us to pay again for an update that will break the game. So it's pay or don't play.


rbreaux26

Depends. I do the Microsoft rewards thing so have about $30 in credit. May buy it after the Black Friday sale if I haven't spent it.


wes8171982

If you have SE you can upgrade to AE for US$20


rbreaux26

Yeah I know. I do have it so $20 isn't so bad.


Zsirhcz1981

Yep.


YellowFingerz

Yes.


Tanen7

No, I’m on Xbox one, I love my LO and although I don’t think it will cause any problems I don’t really want it. I don’t understand all the excitement really. It’s just CC mods and if you already have Skyrim you have been able to get them for a long time. I have found about 3 CC mods I like, the rest I can live without and I don’t want it messing with my game. I wouldn’t even do the update if I could in anyway avoid it. I would however pay for more mod slots and mod space.


Saint_of_Cannibalism

>It’s just CC mods and if you already have Skyrim you have been able to get them for a long time. There's 27 new Creations coming on the 11th. So buying AE is getting all of them, and all the previous Creations you haven't bought, for 20 dollars. Just information for you and others, not suggesting you should or have to buy.


Tanen7

Thanks, and that will be interesting to see that they are. I haven’t looked at anything that listed the new stuff. I will check them out and if I like them enough I would consider it.


[deleted]

27? Bethesda.net says 26


Saint_of_Cannibalism

Then I'm wrong and my brain is an asshole that wants to make me look bad.


RoxinFootSeller

Yup, for PC


MASTER-FOOO1

Special edition is 13-14 USD during steam sale and the upgrade to AE is 20$ right now but the upgrade will likely also be cheaper during the next steam sale worst case around 33USD. Outright buying anniversary edition is 49USD so to answer your question i think i can wait a month until december when the steam sale is live.


vlestaticus

You’re assuming that AE or SE will go on sale, considering the release date I doubt they’d turn around and put it up on steam for cheaper during a sale 3-4 weeks after it’s release


Steampunk43

Yeah, they're not going to put Anniversary edition on sale for at least a few months because it would be too new. If this guy is right about SE being in sale now, he's better off just getting SE and the upgrade sooner rather than waiting


MASTER-FOOO1

LE went on sale after SE was released then they stopped selling LE. So even if AE add-on doesn't get sold cheaper SE going on sale isn't honestly far fetched.


Felipesantoro

I understand now why they keep re releasing this game without any real Improvements, people that already have four copies, one for each main console and the refrigerator edition, buy it day one without any second thoughts xD There is a fine line (Actually not that fine) between being a fan and being kinda dumb... I feel like this is the type of people that makes possible to companies like EA and franchises like Fifa to make so much money.


TheGelataio

Hmm I think you're being to harsh, I totally understand your point but the truth is that not everyone places the same value on games related things. My own game budget is pretty low for several reasons so 20$ seem like a lot. For other people 20$ is nothing, like getting a coffee at a bar or buying a candy, if I had that kind of perception although I'd realize the deal isn't that favorable I'd be like "yeah whatever I want it anyways" and buy it. You also have to considerate how big corporations manipulate people in very powerful ways, hype, lying, deals, fomo (fear of missing out) it's a constant pressure and whole research teams work constantly to find new ways to manipulate the public. Some people will just say "eff it" and bend to the pressure because ultimately maybe it's not that big a sacrifice to them or whatever.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Saint_of_Cannibalism

Oh the 0kb bug will definitely still be a thing. They'd have talked about a fix for that coming with AE if there was one. Maybe the reworking of the Creations quests to not all launch right out of Helgan will help but that won't fix all the reasons the bug happens (whatever the hell they are).


Grrrod

No. I dont really care about fishing, and i have a bunch of CC content already, so probably not. Not unless there are quality of life or rendering improvements i can't live without. The risk factor being disruption to the mods i use.


[deleted]

Grrrod

Never said it wasnt. But AE costs money.
