I have Skyrim on Steam.

It is currently on sale as is the Legendary Edition and the DLC.

The Legendry Edition contains all the DLC for a tenner, but the DLC alone in the sale is 22.50.

If I buy the Legendary Edition, how will the Game/DLC display, will they just add the DLC to my original game or will I have 2 Skyrim listings?

Thanks for any advice :)

They'll get added to the original game, you only need to download and launch it. If you wish to disable them, you can do so via launcher, more specifically Data Files section
Awesome thanks Fenixp :)
I have the Legendary Edition, and it just shows up in the library as "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim", and when I start it up, it has all the DLCs, so I'm pretty sure you will have just one Skyrim-copy in your library.

EDIT: Ninja'd :O

I had first the vanilla version, and later the Legendary edition. DLCs are added to your account and downloaded to your game as if were mods to your Data folder. They are the same game, if you have first the game and later buy all the DLCs is the same as getting the Legendary edition. If you buy instead the Legendary edition, only the DLCs are added to your game and you will lose the second copy of Skyrim.

If you buy the LE the DLC's will be added to your vanilla version, there will be no extra key for Skyrim left though. You will probably have to reboot Steam for the DLC's to show up, right click on Skyrim and should be able to click on DLC's to download if they do not automatically.

Oh, and make sure to grab this if your PC is powerful enough (by 2012 standards that is). It's a hi-res texture pack, it's free and it's official piece of DLC. You can turn it off at any time by the way, via the already mentioned data files bit in the launcher.

Thanks for the replies guys :)

No Fenixp, unfortunately I can just about decently play Skyrim as it is, it runs decently enough but I know that my PC would have issues with it at higher textures, thanks for the heads up though :)
