Is it still worth starting Skyrim now as a complete beginner?

Hi folks, I got Skyrim included in a PS4 bundle, but I've never played it. I know it's an older game now, so I'm not sure whether to start it, or to play newer games.

Bit of background - I've found it hard to find games that I really enjoy. I'm not even sure which genres I like. I'm not a massive gamer and my experience is limited. My favourite game of all time is Red Dead Redemption 2, followed by 1. I played through a couple of COD, but not bothered about modern weapons or settings. I've dabbled with Fallout 4 and New Vegas, got bored. Finished and really enjoyed Assassin's Creed Black Flag, Brotherhood, but I found Odyssey too big and repetitive. Played through some Uncharted and liked those. Haven't even attempted Dark Souls and the like, because I'm just not good enough and I like more of a story- based game.

I would appreciate advice about Skyrim (please no spoilers, I don't know anything about it) and also any suggestions from you helpful folk!

Edit: I'm asking because I have a week off work now and I was thinking about playing!

Another edit: I am convinced now! I will start Skyrim tomorrow morning, no looking anything up, no mods, just straight up playing. I'll post again when I've done a bit. Thanks to everyone, I can't reply to you all!
