I wonder if sims will be able to ride without riding helmet :sweat_smile:

I sure hope so because the helmet would look out of place with historical/occult stuff

If not, I’m sure a modder could fix the problem.

I mean, I’m a strict “every time, every ride” and my helmet goes on before I even put the bridle on (not to mention I’ve got spares in the trailer in case I forget it if we haul out, but … that’s because I’d rather not get a TBI if I get voted off the island by the pony. My sims won’t have that problem and I tend to play more historical anyway.

I am so looking forward to it. I have historical saves and historical story plots that absolutely have been on hold for years in the hopes of horses making a return.

Have to admit, as I’m starting ranch chores (the first of which is mucking the paddock) I’m getting a good chuckle about “collecting horse manure for fertilizer” because that’s pretty much what I’m doing IRL and now my sims are gonna do it too.

Makes me wonder if there’s gonna be messy horses like my mare was that go anywhere they want all over the stall/paddock and neat horses that go in one spot (like my gelding, which is conveniently by the back gate closest to the manure pile)

OMG that would be so cool. My mom had a TWH Stallion and he would only go in one specific spot in his field, no where else. lol. But her APH Mare? EVERYWHERE. lol. I would love to see little quirks like that

BEYOND excited! I've been waiting for this for years. I loved the horses in S3 and am so thrilled they will be back. :heart: Happy they will be a family member...though that means I need to rethink my family situation as with two cats, four children (two are adopted occult) etc I'm at max. May end up having her twin sister have the two adopted occults instead to make room for at least a horse and foal. Not sure yet :mrgreen:

I do have a llama and cow and chickens on the lot, will definitely need a larger one to fit the horses, goats, sheep etc! Cannot wait!!!!

I simply love how you list the two cats before the children :)

LOL! Could be because I currently IRL have two cats and no kids yet, so they are my furbabies :heart:

This is happiness! Does it look like in one of those photos that kids can ride too, that so great.

Open world or not I can't wait for horses and I used to have ? so that's just a cherry on top for me.

I'm very excited for this EP. The mini-sheep and goats will fit in perfectly to my Ancestral game save that I'm just now reviving, or starting anew, I should clarify. The early colonists in the 18th century brought over miniature breeds from Europe because, obviously, it was easier to transport them. Bantam.

My poor heart. ?

I thought about you when I saw this ?

Haha, thank you @Babykittyjade! I thought about me too. :D

Since I didn't play Sims 3 that much, I never got to play with horses, and that made me sad because I was a horse fanatic when I was a kid. (Shiny black stallions with long flowing manes and wild buckskins were my favorites.) I even still have some of my old Breyer horse collection that I'm hoping to pass down to one of my relative's daughters, since I just heard she's into horses now. So I've been hoping horses would come to Sims 4, and yay! They're coming! I can have a fierce black steed at last!

I'm very curious about the CAS, I'm hoping for some more retro Western styles from the 1800s, but I suspect that's not the direction they went. In any case, I'm thinking we're going to get some more rugged, unisex clothing, which I look forward to. The nectar making isn't something I particularly wanted, but nectar drinking , I'm all in. ? Hope there's some new "juiced" animations.

I have waited this for so long, yes I am the annoying "but-when-we-will-get-horses" person. I love the western theme and I'm really surprised there will be other animals as well. I just hope the world will be really good for riding and that horses/riding also fit other worlds. Growing Together had many elements I wanted, but I think this is literally a dream pack. The horses look so good too, I hope they move beautifully. I am still waiting for milestones disappearing bug to be fully fixed, but even that can't take away my joy.

Omg my heart just melted!! ???? why must sims always do this to me lol. ?
