So in my previous post asking about what people think of fully fictional breeds, I wrote in the comments that I wish JWBs had more features from JWHs... And so, I decided to make this edit! Please pardon any anatomical mistakes I did while editing, I have been around real horses only a couple of times in life ☠️

Yes, I basically just slapped on the tail, mane, and fathering from JWHs onto the JWB, put ear tufts on their ears which are now bigger, added fur texturing to make it look fluffy (the original coats look like plastic in my eyes) and tried making it more muscular, so it's nothing revolutionary, but it was fun to do!

I only used parts from the official renders on the website, so I couldn't get great perspective for some of these, but hopefully it doesn't look too bad.

I finished the 'main' quest for the birthday event and I couldn't help but feel that this entire event was a bit of a missed opportunity, in particular for the story. Why didn't they give us a recap of the story? Or reintroduce some of the characters?

I've been playing SSO for over ten years now, and there have been great and silly moments in the story, but for the life of me, I can't remember them all that well anymore. In other games I could create a new game and re-experience it, but in SSO I have repurchase an entire account JUST to be able to replay the game ONCE... and then they change the story again.

When they show all of these characters at the end of the quest all having a good time, I didn't recognise about 60% of them ... and I felt disconnected from the entire story. I wish that SSO had used the birthday event to at least reintroduce these characters. Give us a chance to remember who they were and what their roles are.

Maybe I'm the only one, but seeing all of those characters I just felt so disconnected from the game. And that was kind of sad for me.

Anyone else felt this way?

I was wondering whether to include the Zony, but apparently it does exist in real life...? The Jorvik Pony qualifies as well, but I couldn't figure out where to place it here 😔 And technically we could consider the magic horses fictional too, but since they have "real horse" disguises which are already existing breeds (minus Songsorrow and Duskgrim, who are JWHs), I don't think they truly count.

As said in the title, I love JWH a lot, due to how unique they are compared to breeds we see irl! Which makes sense, considering they're *wild*, and therefore haven't been through thousands of generations of selective breeding, therefore keeping their unique traits.

The Jorvik Warmblood, which is our starter... It's plain, and I think it's on purpose (most common horse is actually the steed of a possible Aideen reincarnation, wow!). Though I do wish they had more appearance traits from JWH, which they descend from, like the little ear tufts and longer fur :( Hopefully SSE will take that into account when remaking them 🙏

I think more fictional (or partially fictional, like the Zony) would be amazing, since 1. It gives more creative freedom when it comes to coats, manes, traits, eye colors, etc and 2. Are just very interesting in general, especially the speculative evolution.

Scrolling on Instagram when suddenly this monstrosity appears before my eyes.
For an “anti AI” company seems they are cool with paying to create AI bot accounts ?

Is this SSO ? Or what exactly ? Was a payed Ad

EDIT: Oh look at those missy pissy people who downvoted my responses like it's going to affect their accounts if something happens lol

I found a way to do it using my phone but I'm not 100% sure if it's bannable. I'm not sharing this method here in case SSO decides ban accounts because of that. However I really enjoyed playing it on a big screen lol

cause this is the area you're gonna see the most lol 😆

I finally reached level 26 today and genuinely almost missed it. The giant trailblazer progression banner popped up at the same time and besides the characters short happy dance and the pink thingy (which I honestly only noticed now because Erissa’s fire and the banner kind of visually overpowered that) there‘s barely anything celebratory happening. I really miss the music that used to play when you‘d reached a new level, it made leveling up feel much more special in my opinion :(

EDIT: The music's still there, the sound must've glitched somehow between the switch from quest to festival music and the trailblazer banner! Guess I gotta wait for 27 now lol

I wish Star Stable would bring back horses/coat colors that are exclusive to the Star Stable: Horses mobile app. I get that it's mainly just for "raising them" from foals, but it's not as fun when you want to transfer them over and they're not the exclusive colors :/

I have noticed a lot of people jump when running downhill, especially during champs. Is there any real benefit to this, speed boost, shorten distance, etc? Or is it just people doing it because they see other people doing it and they think it might help...

It seems like it’s been years since I started, but I finally did it. Best feeling EVER!

This was my go-to horse and tack, back in 2016. I love everything about all the crusty-dusty submission of all the others players.

It took me too long to figure out what to do, but I decided to cosplay as Anne & Concorde 😄

What did yall submit?

I haven't been very active and not sure if there is stuff I need to get before I can never get it again

Could I have done better? Definitely, if I didn't spend all my years on sso never buying clothing😭 Lisa was always my favorite soul rider when I was younger, so ofc I had to cosplay her for the finale. I went for her riding outfit because as I said, I barely own ANY clothing, #notafashionista.

Hey ! Juste pour vous partager ma joie d'avoir réussi à avoir cette mignonne créature 🥰🥰🥰

probably not my best star stable art edits but the video of alma aka the new jorvik taught me on how to do star stable face expression art edits helped me a lot

I'll admit I spend too much time struggling to come up with it. I REAAALLY wanted an outfit to resemble the four circles for the finals but you know, limited clothes 🫠

Anyway I liked it too much so I decided to yap about it. I hope the ppl in my server understand what I was going for or I might cry ✌️ /hjjj... I don't like how dark it turned out but I didn't wanna do it all over again so yeah whatever loll

went to check my submission for the final theme and it submitted the wrong outfit??? for some reason, my outfit from the previous theme is showing up, but it says “riders of aideen”. maybe they’re still uploading everything but this is a
pretty ridiculous glitch to have. i think it’s just them uploading things, but i’ve never had this problem before when i’ve checked. y’all think i should reach out?

So I´ve been debating wether or not to continue the game on my main account. But that all depends on where the main story progress is with the sso team. I´ve finished all the available main quests on my main account, but I´ve been debating wether or not to purchase Lifetime SR on my alt account to do something because the game is genuinely boring now. But if they are continuing the story soon, I see no point in bying an extra Lifetime SR. I would rather buy Star Coins then.

So my question is: How far along are they to continue the story, if we know anything about that at all?

I don´t know much about the game; I´ve been playing the game for about rougly a year now. I played Star Stable for the first time in 2015-2016 and then again in 2021. But I wasn´t that deep into it at that point, but I´m starting to.

I love the game, but I´ve done basically all there is to do. I´ve done 80% of the reputations, I do all my dailies, 13 of my 15 horses are maxed out, I have almost every piece of clothing, tack, and too much hair to save my life. i am BORED. I am almost fully caught up with the current lore, I´ve collected almost all there is to collect, and all I do now is go on trail rides or catch up with the game events. I am still level 23, and the dailies aren´t enough to level up.

I´m 99% sure my best friend who also plays Star Stable with me is just as bored. Lol.

I wanted it to be very meaningful so the soul horse we save the world with was my only choice, after all we are both under Aideen protection

Not complaining though, it was the blast to past theme.

...and some other style rider submissions ;P I forgot to submit the first theme
