I own a DvD of Skyrim which I bought at the end of 2011.

At that time I was surprised that a single player game required internet access, little did I know then. I ran it through steam, like everyone else.

I now run all my games through GoG, can I also run Skyrim through GoG too, if I reinstall it on this new PC?

What do you mean by "run through GoG"? Skyrim is a Steam game and thus requires Steam to run. You don't have to be online to play it, once it is installed it can be started in Steam offline mode. Until Bethesda decides to release the game on GOG or any platform other than Steam, there is no way around it, though.

Not so. Even though it has not arrived on GOG, if you are a strong enough guy, or a FIT GIRL the off line special edition is available.
Don't buy games that require a specific client to operate.

Getting the crack for a game you already legitimately own isn't piracy.
But don't waste bandwdth. Just get the patched exe from https://gamecopyworld.com . That site offers game cracks since 1999!
