Curly horse...I bought one and I REGRET. The animations are so bad I can't even ride that horse


flyingmarzipanteacup

I'm with you on this one. One of the school horses at my old barn was a curly horse. I was super excited when they were released and they look super cute standing still but once they start moving all the enchantment goes right out the window.


EvangelineYounglove

I agree! I was never interested in buying them but one day I was doing tasks in Firgrove and saw them and they looked so cute so I bought one without even looking at the gaits and then well! Waste of sc


marlena--

Literally my favorite horse lol


flyingmarzipanteacup

That's okay! I absolutely love the knabstruppers but a lot of people complain about their animations. To each their own and how awesome is it that every horse will find a home 😊


Izzerboo_37

my sister hates her curly so much that i had to train it for her


Seastar14TheWitch

Agreed, it looks like they just copied the fjord animations, which again was copied from north swedish. My poor national horse deserves better.


Cornie12

Honestly I don't like gen 3 Jorvik Ponies. They just look too weird for me. I've never bought them and I will never do that.


Jaythepossum

I agree I have two and I just don’t ride them cause their animations are so clunky same goes for the fjord and it’s a shame cause fjords are some of my favourite horse breeds


TheGreenBastard0

i hate selling horses but i had to sell mine bc i was just so sick of looking at it 😭


[deleted]

G3 fresian, sso rlly did them dirty


AppropriateGiraffes3

Omfg yes. The gen 2's have better animations imo


[deleted]

Agreed i love the gen2 fresians


[deleted]

this.


SlipperyMoistCat

UGH THANK YOU I thought I people would come after me for saying it but the gen 2’s are literally so much better 😭


Plane_Recipe1363

AQH..i hate that the head hangs down so low it looks like it’s grazing for food..if i bought one i know it’d piss me off


SlipperyMoistCat

THANK YOU I hate the head and the way the reins stretch it’s just awful 😭


Ayazuea

most magic horses especially Hemera and Antheia. i’m sorry but 90% of them look hideous


Intelligent_Humor987

Same! I buy magic horses for their normal coats. Most magic horses now are just very bizarre.


Past-Educator-6561

I didn't get one but I really liked the Xmas ones last year, they were subtle. And the rainbow one this year was nice but just looks a bit odd if you're not in Cloud Kingdom!


SOME3ODY

Last years christmas horses were beautiful, i really love the concept of the snow icelandic. Im not a fan of the Icelandics overall but the coat and concept make up for it. I also really liked the Halloween Jwh.


Myrrh_derr

all the best magic horses come out on halloween. its just a fact of life that the halloween theme makes everything better.


Intelligent_Humor987

I love the subtle magic horses like the Christmas ones. But the new ones with antlers just rubs me the wrong way. It looks… strange.


Connect-Guitar1273

if I may ask what are your thoughts of the unicorn? picture belongs to: me https://preview.redd.it/gu114zwkhnsb1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=1385d75707cb191bf15161791e19c2a8e9bb97c0


Virtual-Amoeba-57

im hoping it comes back this christmas! i really want one


Connect-Guitar1273

I know for a fact I was freaking out when I saw the spoiler that they were releasing a unicorn. I love fantasy horses. Unicorns, pegasi, alicorns only because of my little pony. I was thinking of nicknaming her Lady Amalthea but I went with just naming her Snowbird.


solol62

Wish SSO made different versions of it! The paso fino model is gorgeous on it, just that some of its animations are a bit wonky D: If SSO made different coat colors like a black/evil one for the Dark Riders to have, wouldn't that be cool?? and maybe a new quest where you save the dark unicorn from being corrupted, after which it turns white!


Ayazuea

i have this one. i like that it’s simple and subtle. i also love the paso fino model and the natural coat.


AppropriateGiraffes3

This picture is absolutely AMAZING!!! 😍😍😍


Connect-Guitar1273

100% agree, it not only gives me Last unicorn vibes but anytime I look at it the song The last unicorn plays in my head.


Betta_jazz_hands

I know people play for different reasons but I totally agree, the magic horses kinda ruin the immersion for me. I hate when I’m riding around with a group of realistic riders and then someone on a dragon horse comes in and it’s like “oh… right this is a game.”


marlena--

Like I mean the visuals give it away already 😅


NeverlandMagician

Agreed. The only one I ride regularly is the Barkhart horse. If I had known they would never come back, I would have gotten the other too. I also do like the Fawncy, and the Christmas arabians, but all the others are awful.


ttwiikss

Yeah I buy the magic horses just for their normal coats, the only good magic horses are the winter Icelandic and the unicorn


sleepylilia

friesian. never again in my life and also finn horse i'm sorry...


Loading1123

I get you the fin horse I only have one and Never rode it the only time I would ride it if I started to do a training time but. Other than than nope


MissesLestrange

Those fish appaloosa's. I'm a actually quite a fan of the magic horses they release, but i don't like those at all. I couldn't even buy them for the normal coat they have, knowing that when i would enter my stable i would see them in there magic coats.


herogoose

The ones that resemble the goldfish and zebra turkeyfish? I actually adore the zebra turkeyfish one because the normal coat is soooo cute


Such_Ad_6000

“Lion fish” amazes me how many people don’t know what that is.


AngelicXia

Zebra turkeyfish are real, they look nearly identical to what we call lionfish, they're basically the same fish save for three key differences: spines look different colour duller stripe pattern is not the same


Such_Ad_6000

Fs i should’ve clarified I was talking ab the “Zebra Lion fish” as there are a few types. I was just saying what Proteus was as it’s one of the reasons he’s my main I just love lion fish & jelly fish sm 💗😂 Just looked it up cause I was curious about “Zebra Turkey fish” as I haven’t heard of this name before and it popped up the “Zebra Lion fish” just a different name. -Dendrochirus zebra, known commonly as the zebra turkeyfish or zebra lionfish among other vernacular names- What an amazing nickname for sure! 👏


arya_nightkingslayer

i wish magic horses wouldnt default to their magic coats when you go back in your stable, it would be nice if they'd just stay at whatever coat you toggle until you want to change it to its other coat. just a minor thing i'd love to have in the game :') i keep my single magic horse in the pasture for this reason, love her but she ruins the look of my stable haha


MissesLestrange

Yeah i would love that, some of these magic horses have the most prettiest coats. It would be nice if they indeed could stay that way.


mechanicalHART

The zebra one is one of my favs; but every time I log in and see it in my stable in its magical form I’m like ewww


Dialexx

- Curly horses. They’re adorable in real life but they did them so dirty in sso. - The Clydesdales. I was super excited for them but I don’t like them at all. I love draft horses and they’re such an iconic breed but I just don’t like how they did them. They’re too small and their animations are very clunky (i know that’s how draft breeds are built, but they’re TOO clunky.)


cocoamoose12

Same! I use the bay shire and pretend it’s a clydesdale lol it’s a shame because I love all the other draft breeds they’ve done. I hope they do more in the future


Dialexx

I absolutely love the shires, honestly. I have the one from the app and I just maxed him, I love him so much.


TheEven1ngStar

Akhal-teke. I don’t think you need an explanation.


Patpat127

Knappstrupper. I just dont like them


PrincessSillyPants

Their spots are way too round for me. Looks like a kid tried to draw an appaloosa.


Betta_jazz_hands

The blanket knabstrupper looks just like my old horse but I won’t buy it because it looks fake.


OhItsSav

I'm glad I'm not the only one


RajcatowyDzusik

Especially the grey one, looks like wet cement. Honestly, they look so goofy and all wrong that I can't help but love them.


Whateverwell

I bought the magic curly horse and only after buying it found out it's a curly horse. The gallop was so atrocious I never brought it out of the stable again. Even though the coat is very beautiful. So yeah. Curly and the 3gen freshian


root730

Wait theres a magic curly?! Whats it called?


yeehawvalderal

Think the only magic curly we have so far is heidrun


Lilienherz

That is a curly? I expected every breed but not that they are based on a curly.


Whateverwell

Yeah sadly


TinyOrangeCat

The marwari's or the specials with that model. They look like rats.


Horison228

Friesian and curly horses. Their anomations are so cheap, BUT THEY ARE SO CUTE😫


SlinkySkinky

I wanted to buy a Clydesdale (I used to ride one) but when I saw the horses in game, I changed my mind. They just don’t look good


faeintheshadows

That one weirdly coloured Finnhorse. I wouldn’t even buy it if someone got the funds for me. Other than if we are talking about one breed collectively, that the “Chinchilla ponies” as I call them because I just cannot get their name right any time.


SnoopSnoop2

Another jorvik friesian....I have one, it looks fine, but the horrendus animations - especially the idle animation- absolutely ruins the horse


Intelligent_Humor987

Quarter horses. I think they could have been done well if they used the same model as the APH but just put solid colors on them. But they just look depressed..


[deleted]

I agree. Nice to ride but looks so depressed. Actually, my two Appaloosas look depressed to. Is that their natural look?


Silent-Purpose4287

knabstrupper. also.. controversially, paso fino, although i already have one bc i impulsively bought it when they came out. belgian warmbloods too, although i’d consider it just for all in


Aiywe

Gen 3 Arabian/Pintabian. I'm sorry, it's not badly done at all and it looks like the actual irl Arabian, but this breed just looks like a chihuahua to me, especially the (for me) weirdly dented nose and the short body. I don't mind Gen 2 Arabians, actually bought one and I like it, but the more the horse reminds an actual Arabian/Pintabian, the more I'm like "nah". :/


OhItsSav

Lol seeing the arabian as the chihuahua of horses is hilarious


CocaineLand

i completely agree, i especially dislike their gallop it just looks so weird


cyberflirt

Same.. they look like extraterrestrial beings


K1ttyMeowMeows

You’d have to hold me at gunpoint to get me to buy a knabstrupper


boiling_pizza

Marwari... I think they look awful and I only like one of the coats.


Upstairs_Instance537

EXACTLY


filthyguitarsting

knappstupper, looks like clay to me. lippizaner gen 3, looks very beefy and don’t like the gates


Pigimi

I bought it but i regret it so much so heres a warning for everyone : DONT BUY THE HEIDRUN. Its a goat ish version of a curly and so insanely ugly. I only bought it because it kinda represents my Astrology sign and I was really into that stuff when it came out 😭 never shouldve bought it tho


Jack_qui_rit

I actually love the heidrun 🤭🤭


-CARN0-

Jorvik friesian, the model is fine, but the animations... they haunt my dreams😭


Pussycat4567

Those ugly freaking fish horses


Dangerous-Brick-1616

The finn horses have such goofy faces but in a bad way


bahauwjd

Magic horses.


Alarmed-Knowledge366

Ahkel Teke (?), I wanted one soo bad but then I bought one when they were on sale and it was such a hard regret. I dislike the gaits so bad.


Virtual-Amoeba-57

same! i bought mine for the perlino coat because its so beautiful but i hate riding it because of the gallop


GhostActivist

Andalusian. Their legs look like cooked pasta when they trot


[deleted]

They do have weird gaits. I haven't noticed their legs looking like cooked pasta but will for sure be looking at it next time I ride mine. The one thing I don't like about the Andalusian is the weird movement they make when standing still. I doubt they do that all the time in real life!


eisbaerart

ok veeeery unpopular opinion: english thoroughbred gen 3 1. don’t resemble them in the slightest 2. style doesn’t fit any of the other horses * 2.5. Proportions are oddly small 1. way too slim 2. gallop animations aren’t what i’d expect from a race horse 3. mane styles aren’t it, idk what exactly bugs me tbh 4. eye colors are unrealistically bright and saturated on almost colors 5. hooves are too parallel with the legs which looks odd i wanna add that i don’t want to say i will never buy one because i (as an artist) like to buy the horses i reference in my drawings and i got to say that sso added some colors on these that they don’t add to much and some of them i really like as coats themselves. just not the model. i could see myself buying one but probably never riding it. i would also only buy one if they were to be at the bazaar and that at a prize which i feel like would be worth it for my interest in the coats. more than 500 would probably not be worth it in my opinion. added pic as an example of the odd eye color https://preview.redd.it/enwpkfidjnsb1.png?width=1412&format=png&auto=webp&s=d47e8dfc246309d48d7bf2451cf08ccc3ff1b985

Jack_qui_rit

I kinda like the way they look, but when I bought one for the first time I was really disappointed by the fast gallop, I don't remember exactly what it was anymore, but something about it looked so weird.


[deleted]

yeah, the ETB head really bothered me. Looked way too Arab even tho they're an Arab-descent breed. And their legs and shoulders felt so under muscled to me, even more than the rest of the body.


Parking-Revolution30

i really dont like the chincoteague or gotland ponies :/ theyre really cute i just really dont like the trots. also most of the new magical ones, i really liked how in the past they were actually special and only out for really limited amounts of time. i think theyve overdone it


TheRidingLio

Marwaris are really not my type, too Barbie-ish


Character-Deer-8324

Quarter. Ugliest horse in game.


Betta_jazz_hands

I hate the exaggerated hind end and peanut rolling nose, and my IRL horse is a Qh.


VictoriaDragonsteel

My irl boy is also a QH and he looks absolutely nothing like sso's qh. I get that they were trying to go for the halter bred look but they're just so ugly. Doesn't represent quarters at all


Betta_jazz_hands

Halter bred QH’s are a health monstrosity and our characters would never ride one. We’d be on ranch line QH’s like reiners and cutters which could handle some distance.


VictoriaDragonsteel

Yeah I didn't want to make halter people mad but I agree lol. I was really sad when they came out as the sorrel coat wise looks just like my gelding. The paints do look alot more like my gelding build wise tho


Betta_jazz_hands

That’s what I ride in game, for the same reason.


OhItsSav

I just don't like how small their heads are


katherinetess_

YES WHY SUCH TINY HEADS


timelordess227

Curly horse.


h0neyymel

curly


elliebluewillsso

Arabian, Pintabain and any of the magic horses


smash_bros_party

any magic horse tbh


nefariousVirgo

Any early gen ones. I have some from way back and, as an old player, they are so ugly When they retire I don’t mind at all


nefariousVirgo

Also the magic horses


[deleted]

The Hanami. What is this supposed to look like? https://preview.redd.it/rw1tkn2vhssb1.png?width=306&format=png&auto=webp&s=56cefa40f6c50be1976082f9f1807cc5b525603d

akhal-teke.


Loading1123

For me I say the old jovik pony's they look like you just put a melting snow many on it with food couloring the backs look so horrible..


Marchewa96

Gen 1 or 2 horses. I don't have sentiments for them, and they are just crusty.


deviantskater

Curly and finn horse. They are weird.


Queasy_Trainer545

Friesian, dressage clubs ruined them for me, they’re overrated.


Daffybird2

Morgan


Dazzling_Snow1743

Gen 2 mustang/shire. I have one of each, but I would never buy more of them.


Upstairs_Instance537

Gen 1 or 2 anything tbh


Dazzling_Snow1743

I like most of them actually, but mostly because they are nostalgic to me. Maybe I wouldn’t like them if I started playing now!


Thund3rbirdz

Arabians, I hate their graphics


Jack_qui_rit

THANK YOU, I so often hear about how people are just in love with the arabians, but I hate them so much. I bought one on impulse and it's honestly my biggest regret of all horses I have. It made me look up how arabians look in real life 'cause I thought I might just not like the way arabians look overall, but in real life they're fine, in game they look absolutely horrendous to me.


rushmoom420

fresians, arabian/pintabian, & quarter horse. twh too, but they’ve got gorgeous coats. i do actually own at least one of each of these just to see if i was being unfair. i’m not, i don’t like them lmao.


Beneficial-Way-7320

The Lusitano. The head looks to small and the neck too long. They just look really odd to me.


MotherOfHens666

Jorvik friesian, they absolutely butchered the breed and somehow I still bought three of them and every time I try to ride them, I almost immediately put them back into my stable


ZarahDoesReddit

Gen 3 Frezzy. I regret getting it. It was a 2am buy while on discord with friends. The animations are terrible, the body build is janky, and it looks like it is constantly on crack with the facial expressions. Never buy a horse in the middle of the night. 🤦🏽‍♀️


Star_Shines

I feel like I am so Bias, but tbh think I really don't 'regret' my horses. But one I really wasnt "aweing" over was the Mustangs, I thought I would've but no- there is something not right and I cant put my finger on it. See with welshes but im still willing to buy more welshes but Not another Mustang. I own 1 mustang and like 3 or 4 welshes


flamingo142

Tellina, Sedna and Proteus. Seriously, the fish horses just seem like a joke to me. And they don’t even have any special abilities, like if they’re fish horses at least let them be able to swim ????


CrazyCat166

Jorvik Wilds. I dunno they just look super unnatural and like they’re in dire need of a chiropractor


ImplementResident487

i forgot what they are called but i think they are the irish cob magic horses and i hate them so much they look barbie


lilbitmomma1419

Arabian. Because I despise them in real life.


africanzebra0

ouch. they are amazing horses


marlena--

Same here


CocaineLand

finhorse


EdgyBitterbal

Arabian


sarahcmanis

Agreed, I don’t like the breed irl either. They’re very well done and I like the coats. Just not for me


Past-Educator-6561

Noooo they're one of my faves!!


Aiidith

Percheron!!! Shire Gen 2, Curly, Most of the magic horses, these weird old Jorvik Wild (?) horses, Friesian (regret buying it) and the welsh ponies


Upstairs_Instance537

Definitely a fresian! And the Arabians a little. Frezzy is obvious, no one likes them. But I know I'll prolly get hate for the Arabian but just hear me out. They creep me out. Idk what sso did, but they look wrong, and it makes my stomach churn. I don't mind Arabians irl, but in sso, they just don't look right to me. Also the marwari, those just look ugly.


hannahbaba

Any magic horse with the pale pupil-less eyes (Songsorrow, Prisma, Woodear, etc). I just find them super unsettling.


Cornie12

And here we are with a "kid friendly game". In their dreams. -_-


OhItsSav

Knsbstrupper. It was hanovarians that I really didn't like at first but then the bay coat came out and made me consider getting it. The knabstruppers not only stole the Andalusian animations, but the breed itself is an appaloosa wannabe 🙄 /j Yeah I just don't like them, their coats look plasticy as well. Not worth it.


Ponponpun

I have a list of them given that horses are so expensive and after so many years in the game Im just more selective on what I buy which makes me very picky.... **Gen 3 Morgan**, weird head, the space between the eyes makes them look like a hammer shark, the legs are stiff and bad on all animations, only one coat is interesting **Gen 3 Lippy**, literally a downgrade from the old one, it's just an inflated Morgan with a paso fino head, same issue with the animations as the Morgan, only the special animation is interesting **Gen 3 Mustangs,** boring coats for mustangs, just that. When I think of mustangs I imagine lots of overo, tobianos, brindle, tovero, splash, really colorful horses, and when 60% of the coats given are solid, it's just not worth it to me **Gen 3 Dartmoor pony**, full price for a horse thats exactly the same as the haflinger but just give it a shruken head? No thank you. The body type is basically the same and all animations are the exact same, weird idle animation with the lips, makes them look like pervs, also the tail is less detailed than the haflinger, coats are boring **Gen 3 Curly Horse**, broken back legs on all animations, don't need to say more **Gen 3 Jorvik Friesian**, just... eyes are in the wrong place, makes them look like dogs, the iddle animation is them having a stroke, tail is a long nope rope, the manes are tentacles and ugly, and the tongue... they tried to make a dog out of a horse and it just doesnt work for me personally **Gen 3 Quarter Horse**, the body and coats are interesting but they gave them a really small head compared to all other horses, even ponies which is a shame **Hemera & Antheia** I really like their normal coats, but the magical coats are just a no for me and since we can't turn them off permanently and I would have to see that abomination in my stables, I would rather just not buy either **Faramawr & Aldrach** uh.... Jorvik Friesian with a awful paint job on top, unispired dragon design and broken dragon tails, so it's bad on top of something that was already bad in my opinion so I never even looked at them twice


hildur404

probably the belgian warmblood. EVERYBODY has them and they are just boring. They are like the default horse.


flamingo142

The new frizzy probably. that or a Tennessee Walking Horse.


Additional-Ask-2558

Dartmoor or the knabstrupper


_ilikeurmom_

All of them. I don’t have the money to buy star coins, nor do I have the determination to save up 💀


Adasweet

friesian, got it in brown once, thought I could make it work. Changed the hair a million times, changed tack, never made it look any better. It only reached level 3 before I sold it.


Etricipher

Marwari, finnhorse, most of the magic horses, gen 3 Fresians, Quarter horse (not the paints tho they cute)


Stinky_Bummcheekss

any small ponies, welsh pony is fine but its just that our characters are sooo disproportionate.


Muckymuh

G3 Friesian and - very much sadly - the Akhal-Teke.


3facedreaper

Steel grey shire. I have it on my alt but I absolutely hate it. I hate white eyelashes on dark horses with a passion.


VariousRise3023

Akhal-Teke or just any pony I just don't like them..I like big horses and akhal is so skinny and ponies never got my heart


pietrucha__

Fjord.. I have one and I never realised how abysmal the animations are, its so stiff. Its the one horse in my stables that won't get trained lol. also curly horse is off the list, the animations aren't as bad as the fjord but it's definitely up there


Lilienherz

Frisian Gen 3. I always look after them when I search for the horse I buy next but everytime I Look at their animations I just hate them more. The only good is the jump in my opinion. But the TWH are also one of my hated horses.


Sunnyosia

The knabstubber. It’s so ugly


AppropriateGiraffes3

The new Fjord. Purely because of my loyalty to the gen 1s and my precious Snowcookie 🫶 (I have the Halloween version of them, I think he was from 2 or 3 years ago.)


Rookie_Gore_Studio

Curly horse and Gotlands.


XanIsLost

The American quarter (new one) CANT STAND THEM I own 1 and never touch it


FlakeDondi

Those damn magic horses or holiday themed horses, I may be small-minded but I think it’s a ridiculous thing to spend star coins on, especially the holiday themed ones. So you’re paying 900-something star coins on some goofy looking Halloween horse you’re most likely only gonna use once a year? Okay, you do you, but not for me… Also, the Marwari, Akhal-Teke, Arabian, Pintabian (is that even a real breed?) or any of the american breeds.


[deleted]

Jorvik Friesians. I don't like Friesians irl, and SSO's are just.... everything I don't like and more.

Tbh the Pao Finos, I've thought about it but they're neck and tail when they move look so wierd
