Mods give this game nearly endless content. And Skyrim is perhaps still the only open world game with this much player freedom. You're only locked out of shouts if you don't want to do the main quest so you can really just go whatever direction you want at any point.

Whereas in a game like AC: Odyssey for example you have to do the main questline or you are locked out of crucial skills.

And I actually play the game with mods instead of just browsing for more like a lot of people seem to do.

My skyrim folder is 300gb

And the special edition is very stable (if you know what you're doing and don't go uninstalling or adding script-heavy mods mid-playthrough). I've only crashed one single time during my latest 60 hour save so far.
