It has a lot of improvements , but all in all , it is still the same game in an improved engine . If you dont own Skyrim and wish to buy it , go for the remasterIf you Do own skyrim but didnt get it free from lacking a dlc or three , no , just buy the DLC . <| sep |> thanks . I ' ll update above ! <| sep |> Same here , I loved XIII . I don ' t understand how people couldn ' t fathom the story , I ' d never played an FF game and I understood it completely . The game play was the only time I ' d ever played with turnbased action , but the atb gauge seemed a good use of it . I used to fly over the controls as I like the visuals so much I made it a game to practically never have any downtime in a battle unless I ' d previously lost or it needed to get strategic , so it seemed like realtime to me and I hated using the premade actions so I chose each action . It just seemed like a sensible backup if I got overwhelmed .
