Has Horse Ranch expanded your gameplay?

Yes. I loved horses in Sims3, but sadly, once again, they are tied to slots in a household. I have recently decided to start, anew, my Ancestral save. It's set in the 18th century and having the mini goats and sheep is absolutely spot on. (Stop and think about how the early Settlers brought their farm animals to the new world on a ship. Diminutive versions.) Makes the farm more of a farm. I'm now torn between my Main Save, which is my Rock Star save, and playing this new ancestral save. I tend to bob back and forth. I'm only writing about my Rock Star at the moment, though. And being able to have my Sims make juice is also fun.
