This is for people who are looking for more detailed information.

Bethesda have not made any new quests, they have only remade the game with better graphics and sounds effects, no new animations or meshes. And fixed some bugs... Some.

To make a long story short, Bethesda reworked the engine so that pc users can almost not crash at all with loads of mods.
Old "Old Skyrim" had a 32 bit engine that only supported 4 Gigabytes of RAM.

The Special Edition has a 64 bit engine with 16 Exabytes, (yes 16 exabytes 16 billion ram) and now you may think pff this guy.
I have spent some time looking into this and yes its true 16 exabytes, so this means that pc users will have unlimited modding ability.

But the only downside is that your computer can not handle 300 mods and may need an uppgrade, and the most important tool for pc mods right now, and why the Skyrim Special edition has got so many downvotes is.

No Skyrim Script Extender(SKSE), and the creators of the SKSE does not know how much time it will take for them to make a new one. Since they most likley can't import anything from the old SKSE.

That is why it will take more than a couple of weeks maybe months before the team can make a new one.

So my tip right now, dont buy the Special Edition yet, not until they have released the Script extender.
You are better off playing the old Skyrim for now.
But once we get the SKSE, this game will truly become legendary.
