Have you still not played Skyrim?
Nope. Will probably check it sooner or later, at least I hope.
Uhm. Yeah. Definitely check it out. Get some HD texture mods, ENB and a couple QoL mods and go for it. Some dungeons may get a little familiar but the locations are all unique and gorgeous. There's even an entire underground world it definitely has the exploration appeal.
Checking my Steam, I see I already have Skyrim. Not the "Special edition", just the old regular one. Will I miss much playing that one over current one?
If you're playing the game vanilla you won't really miss anything, assuming you own all of the DLCs/expansions. Both games are modable but in my experience special edition is much more stable
HD textures/ENB are just graphics, which aren't really needed. The Unofficial Skyrim Patch, on the other hand, is a must have, it fixes fuckloads of bugs (and the fortify restoration alchemy/enchanting exploit), reduces the chance of crashes and adds a bit of deleted or inaccessible content
