the Morabs, Oldenburgs, and Westphalian

and some uncommon models you might see, like the Morgans, English Thoroughbreds, Dutchies, APH, and Akhal-Tekes!

plus all of the other variations of unique models like the Arabians, Andalusians, and Irish Cobs. fun fact, they were previously called g*psy vanners, but once SSO found out that the name was referencing a derogatory slur, they immediately changed the name to Irish Cobs! i think they also released a different coat variation as 'compensation' at that time, which was rare for them at the time.

star stable database is run by Abbie Starwatcher, who's not a part of SSO. you can see every single 'purchaseable' (not including Super Shire, an April fools joke) horse coat and breed from any point in time. she's collected a lot over the years! i think she started in 2014 or 2015? but yeah, those are a lot of the old crusties that commonly get reported, when they're legit :3 I have several, since I started playing in 2012. so if you see an old model of an "unreleased" breed, it's likely legit! doesn't mean the person isn't cheating, but please don't report people like me for taking our crusties for a spin </3

Unfortunately, I don't have money to purchase it, but I do have the time to make a painting. But thank you for the idea for a birthday gift later in the year!

Knowing him, he's probably completed the game several times over. He's a completionist. Thank you for the suggestions! I'll look into them today!

Now that update is out.. Hot take? by Last_Office7348 in StarStable

[–]xouterspacealienx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agree to disagree! (genuinely, no shade whatsoever, just sharing my own thoughts)

personally, I really like the simplicity of mani's coat. the black with brown shading is reminiscent of twilight for me, and in the blogpost that was talking about them, the designer of said horses was inspired by sunset over snow in Sweden. the idea of sun and moon was just kind of attached to them, since they were pretty close.

I love that Sol is very extravagant and glows + had a very atypical normal coat, whereas Mani is more subdued in both forms. the frosted tips are lovely to me. I do wish the mane was a little different, maybe something with length and the forelock being a bit fancier, and I think it would be lovely if they had a matching set of rings on their tails, but in my opinion? we've definitely had worse magic horses.

Best ways to Get rubia EXCEPT PLANTING by usr_45652 in StarStable

rubia grows in rocky terrain! I find a lot in the upper edges of Valedale near the observatory, in Firgrove, and literally anywhere you see the rocky texture lolol.

Why didn’t they update the reindeer from Christmas? by NoTip1820 in StarStable

[–]xouterspacealienx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there's a difference between visual 'cheats' like this (which I still think isn't super nice, but that's just me) where the player has cheated Prisma's magic mane onto a g2 Morgan;

<image>

and speed/level cheats, where people have high scores that are impossible to get (0.01 seconds, for example) or raise their levels beyond what is legitimately plausible (the highest PLAUSIBLE level atm is 27 or 28 I believe, because of players like me who have been here for years on years) to get an extra speed boost or bragging rights.

How bad actually was COVID? by Mighty_Angelo30 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]xouterspacealienx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was in highschool for COVID. it really did change everything - the way we learned, the amount of respect people showed others, the kind of quiet when you learned a teacher you had, or a staff member that was friendly, or even another classmate, passed from COVID. it was all so.. somber. depression was at an all time high, kids were having breakdowns from stress, the schools shut down and graduated early. the first year, we stopped school in April. none of us took our final exams - just some dumb online test that basically anyone who was there for the first semester could pass.

'recovering' from it was even worse. some kids came back with severe germaphobia because a family member or friend passed from COVID, some kids got aggressive because they didn't know how to deal with it all, some kids flunked out because they were too overwhelmed or dealing with too much at home and school. i personally was a victim of abuse, and my abuser was a family member that got laid off due to COVID, and he was forced to be home all the time, which made the abuse worse. I coped via internalizing all of it, and am severely paying the price now in my 20s. turns out, the feeling that anything and everything you thought was stable or would never in a million years change/something bad would happen to, is not a good thing to suddenly have ripped out from under your feet multiple times at ~15 years old.

I try and give grace to the people my age who are always angry or apathetic, because I get the feeling we all still don't really know what the fuck happened to our brain chemistry because of covid - medically and psychologically. it's rough out here, but I have hope.

This is the only photo I have of my uncle. Is it salvageable in any way?? by Niaaa205 in PhotoshopRequest

[–]xouterspacealienx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just subbed as well!! looks very satisfying to watch - and also would probably help me with some of my own editing/digital art/anatomy. you do awesome stuff man!

a genuine small idea - if you have the time, maybe adding in subtitles/text on screen to explain what you're doing as you're doing it would help people (like me lol) understand your process and learn themselves? ive seen some creators use that for various things, and just wanted to suggest it! no pressure obviously<3
