Dude Ranch Pack Idea

I've been binge watching Yellowstone... now I'm thinking they should also add a cowboy career and maybe even feuds lol

Don’t forget cowgirls too. And thieves as well as places to find gold such as the creek and gold mines (think the PC game Yukon Trail).

Yesssssss! All that.

I wasn't sure if cowboy was a gender neutral term lol, I thought about it, I know it ends in boy but I really wasn't sure. I guess I could have gone with wrangler ??‍♀️ but yes, all genders for sure.

Oooooo maybe we could collab and share ideas!!! I honestly had a very similar idea to this (here it is)

Ok so I was thinking and now that the cottage living is coming out we could include another farm animal such as horses. I was putting together an idea where theres a new world with three areas of land.

Land 1: A wild west themed one, cowboys, goldmining, saloons, pistols, deserts which you can move in and try not suffer from heat and lack or water and more

Land 2: Similar to the cottage living but there's a forrest that surrounds it that is inhabited by faries, elves, pixies and what not. There's horse trecks and rivers that you can walk across etc.

Land 3: Its not exactly a land based on a town but more of a riding academy. Sims are able to board at the academy, buy their own horse, compete against other simd and learn jumps, dressage, barrel racing and what not.

In Land 3 theirs a few houses scattered around but mostly its the academy and a competing area for competition. Lanf 1 and 2 have a set rivalry and most of it comes down to riding to see who's the best.

I have soooooooo many more ideas for this but I don't want to spam anyone XD Let me know if you want to hear them and have any other ideas!!

Oh and of course we can't forget about the horses!!!

Also if u see this around ive already posted it but I only just saw your idea!!!!

YES PLEASE!! <3 <3 <3 I so need a stage wagon, horses, female bonnets, olden days western gear for all ages & males,
1880's wood off-the-grid telephone & playable typewriter (not a PC), all western lights are off-the-grid,
western games/festivals, blacksmith, saloon, boarding house (not a Resort), western playable schoolhouse &
water pistol shootouts. :D :p

They only reason u added the mythology vibe was so it would appeal more to the other players who currently want that. Personally I don't think it works but if its a way to kill 2 birds with 1 stone and get what everyone wants I think it could work it may be slightly odd though. I do completely understand where your coming from cause I had the same thought ahaha (sorry if this sounded rude and all I'm not intending it to)

Ohhhh no you must be misinformed my bad I must not have made it clear! I posted this on a different place and copied and pasted. In that other place they were discussing elves and pixies and what not so I was trying to compromise also the western theme is on a different land section

I'm sorry im not trying to cause an argument I just thought it would be ok to put part of my part out there but thanks for the feedback ill change it immediately!

I think your ideas are great! I don't know that fairies would work well with the version of a dude ranch that I'm thinking. I'm thinking more of an old west mountain yellowstone vibe. Plus I think this would work best as a game pack and not an expansion.
I don't typically play with occults in the sims so for me the selling factor of a fairy pack would be the world. I think Scotland or Ireland or even Iceland would be great for fairies.
As for the dude ranch suggestion I think it would be a great opportunity for vacation style play, it would be a fantastic was to introduce horses. I would still like an opportunity to live on/work at/run a ranch but I would likely use it for my sim families to go on vacation.

Part of my thoughts included riding horses on trails. The idea of horses walking through rivers creates a beautiful visual in my mind, I like that idea. Maybe a lake area with a beach as well, riding along the beach ?
Gold mining/panning and saloons definitely. Maybe they could also expand on card playing to bring a poker style game to the saloon.
