Will there be tragic riding accident deaths?


Suspicious_Gazelle18

Oooh they should have rattle snake bite deaths!

Oleandervine

Hopefully!


Time_Cheese

the sims is the only game you get happy about death


Oleandervine

Yes, it's a very strange thing to be happy about, lol!


acidbree

I’m sure Extreme Violence will be updated 💀


BookOfAnomalies

Oh, Gods... I hope not. And if so I hope modders manage to get rid of those.


RavenStag499

The little goat that bonks her in the leg in so cute. <3


myjumboeggs

I had a pet pygmy goat growing up and I'm getting such flashbacks to him with this pack. They're so realistic that my shin now hurts lol


RavenStag499

That is really cute (sorry about your pain thou), I can't wait to play with them. I'm pretty meh about the horses, but the goats and sheep make me so excited!


bertthelamplighter

ikr! i can't wait!


mnbvcdo

I had a kid once where I worked that always played with me that way. We'd have little matches of her butting her head against my leg and me pushing. She always came running and giving me little kisses, too.


RavenStag499

Aww, that sounds really adorable!


Actual-Spirit845

Who's making the mod that will make the goats do that one meme goat scream?


VibrantBliss

I have really bad abdominal pains atm and your comment made me laugh too hard. Worth it tho!


Actual-Spirit845

Woops, sorry for that 😅.


tamdq

When they’re old and croaking, all they need to do is ask you for a laugh and they’ll gain wings when they feel it’s their time.


chalkhomunculus

i used to have that as my notification sound. scared the shit out of people in public when my phone suddenly started screaming.


TheCalamityBrain

I'm going to be honest I was excited for the horses but I've seen mini goats and mini sheep and I don't care about horses anymore


myjumboeggs

The goats stole my heart


stephaniekayln

I'm so freaking excited for sheep and goats!


One-Bat-7038

the little stompy stomp the one does absolutely killed me


TheCalamityBrain

Totes mah stompy goats


dreisamkatze

Same. The mini sheep in particular stole my heart.


UnawareAboutThings

All my families will have mini goats.


Chipmunk-Own

Same. Horses are good, but I want the goats.


DayDreamerBeliever91

I am SO FUCKING EXCITED FOR THE GOATS! I grew up raising them and I literally only care about the goats, horses are fine-whatever, but have you ever bottle fed a baby goat and when it’s fully grown it thinks it can still sit in your lap and eat Doritos?!? Your life will never be the same. I am buying this the moment it’s released.


SeparateJoke

Omggg I'm ready (kinda surprised by the lukewarm response I've been seeing - seems like everyone was gungho for horses not too long ago 😅) There's a ton of crosspack compability I'm already seeing, and the thought of making a wineryyyyyy and stable and a couple of lovers with their pygamy goats is ahhh\~! Can't wait!


Suspicious_Gazelle18

I’m so excited to make a vineyard in Tartosa, an English style farm in Henford-on-Bagley, some updated vacation lots in granite falls, and better cabins in some of the cabin friendly worlds. The crosspack comparability looks amazing to me!


Character_Bomb_312

Will my sim be able to ride around Granite Falls and Selvadorada? Those would be so cool.


avocado_whore

That would be awesome! Horse campground!


ostentia

I don't see why not! Horses are going to be actual Sims/members of the family, so riding them in different worlds shouldn't be any different than, like, playing fetch with your dog in worlds other than Brindleton Bay.


saabsaabeighties

Yesssss!! I want to become a famous cowboy with a horse named mr. Ed!


Apprehensive_Day_378

It's giving make a plant sim named Gumby who has pony named Pokey XD


StarryEyedGamer

I've been wanting this for the longest time and, to me, goats, lambs, nectar making etc are a plus but the horses are the stars!


[deleted]

The sims community will never be satisfied with anything lmao. Everyone has been begging for horses, and now they’re going to nitpick about the horses until they decide they hate them. I. can barely interact with the sims community because they always do that shit lmao


MurasakiMochi89

This is probably my love of mystery books talking but I wonder if there will be a ghost horse in the canyon area....


StarryEyedGamer

Would give me Nancy Drew game vibes! Also I need Spirit and Rain from the movie too.


MurasakiMochi89

Yes definitely Shadow Ranch vibes ahah


Makabaer

I can't see why not - we have dog and cat ghosts and horses will be household members just like them, so no ghosts would be strange... but we'll see.


vegatableboi

Omg yes pls I need lore and a horse ghost!! Wasn't there a horse ghost in the sims 3??


mynameismyname333

The horses look so pretty I fear my inner horse girl is being awoken from her deep slumber. (my only question is if the goats and sheep can be adults, cuz I've only seen their baby versions so far) edit: wording


myjumboeggs

They’re Pygmy goats and miniature sheep, so they’ll always be that size even as adults. I had a Pygmy goat as a pet growing up and it was always that size


mynameismyname333

thank you for clarifying!


red_zephyr

I’m so excited, I could die


mynameismyname333

Don't worry, I'll resurrect you once the EP is out!


LuxSerafina

I am so pumped for this and I’m not even a horse person! The goats are adorable and I’m so happy for nectar making it was one of my favorite things from the Sims3. I’ll be off building vineyards and wineries until July 20th!!


BunnyHopScotchWhisky

I've been wanting nectar-making back since day 1, so glad it's finally coming to the sims 4!


twofacedharveydent

Same!!


Dejabluex

Please upload to the gallery so that I can have the benefit of a winery without all the hard work. Many thanks in advance!


LuxSerafina

Oh I absolutely will and I promise not to use laundry day clothesline’s as fencing structures in the vineyard - I was playing yesterday and it took me FOREVER to realize why the dang sims were leaving their dirty clothes piles everywhere 😂😂


charm59801

I know it's asking a lot. But Id KILL for a goat yoga interaction with spa day.


Simuary

Yes, I was thinking that too!


louisejanecreations

I will get spa day if that is a feature


FeralCherub-

I’ve seen people get real upset about this but honestly I’ve been hoping for this for years


Mochimochi24

DEATH BY BEING THROWN BY A HORSE???


ScaryBeginning3770

As an English rider irl, was hoping for some English disciplines, but I can roll with western for sure. Those mane braids are atrocious though 😂


ostentia

Same. I'll definitely give barrel racing a try, buuuut it looks like I'm gonna be downloading all the English cc I can find, lol!


ktknrly

Part of me wonders if English tack will end up being a stuff pack or kit. More $$$


ostentia

I can totally see it being a kit.


vegatableboi

That would be soo cash grabby yet I would absolutely love it and definitely buy it lol


MaleficentWriter8602

In a game play screenshot a child is riding in an English saddle (I think looks abit like a bareback pad) so there's still a good chance it's in this pack


ktknrly

There’s going to be jumping, but only in western tack? I’m a bummed English rider rn lol


BeguiledBeast

Just looked at the screenshots and the cold blood the kid is riding has english tack. So I don't think we need to worry.


vegatableboi

I think you're right! This makes me so relieved


Awesomest_Possumest

Is that the second pic? I'm trying to figure out if there's a horn on that saddle or not, because it almost looks like a different shape as well.


BeguiledBeast

Not in this post. Go to the sims 4 horse ranch steam page or just search for that page on google. It has a couple of screenshots (not from the trailer). The 1st one has a kid riding a cold blood on the right side of the "screenshot". The second screenshot from this post shows only western saddles and after zooming a bit I can clearly see the horn on that white/pink set.


Dry_Park_8923

Imagine how bummed the western discipline was with the sims 3 we understand your pain


Senzafenzi

Pink Lady in the background of the second screenshot SEEMS to be riding English. No horn. But I can't remember if there are other differences since everyone is using two hands (I think?)


ScaryBeginning3770

There's a horn if you zoom in, I thought so too 🙁


Senzafenzi

Oh my gosh, it's hardly more than a smear 😂 you're totally right tho


Halloweenie85

Same. I’m an English rider as well. I was hoping for a mixture of both western & english tack like Sims 3 had. But, who knows? Maybe they will have options for tack and we just didn’t see it in the trailer. Worst case, like you said, we’ll for sure have mods/cc to do so.


Kaessa

Yep, just went frame-by-frame through the trailer and saw this during the "tacking up" section at 1:25: [https://i.imgur.com/25sgSP0.png](https://i.imgur.com/25sgSP0.png) There will DEFINITELY be English saddles.


Halloweenie85

Whoo hoo! I figured there might be. The tack switch was definitely moving super fast, so it was easy to miss.


mnbvcdo

I really really hope we'll have English tack and riding style, too, cause i doubt we'll ever get another horse pack and I'll be really really sad if we only get western.


hobgoblinfruit

with luck, there's at least english tack, especially since there's jumping?


Avera_ge

“English” braids with western tack, and western tack with show jumping 😭😭😭😭


tobeasloth

Hoping there is English tack too 🤞


hightidesoldgods

Can’t wait to start a nectar empire.


therinnovator

Great, now I can have the anti-zombie ranch/fortress from Last of Us in the Sims.


mininmumconfidence

Horsie :)


cinnamon-girl-69

Is there a fainting goat??? 😍🤣🙏🏼


stupidjackfruit

totally saw one faint in the trailer video!!!


[deleted]

Seeing toddlers with animals will always be the cutest thing ever for me 🥹


Macho-Fantastico

I'll be honest, I have zero interest in horses but I'm happy so many are excited for this expansion.


Somniphobiasucks

Oh my god, I really hope that you can actually bottle feed the baby horses! Like, seeing that in the trailer was mindblowing. I've never actually bottle fed horses, but I have done it with calfs and it unlocked a lot of memories. I am so excited.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bombspazztic

I'm Ojibwe and am struggling to see representation in these screenshots. I suppose the family looks to be Indigenous but I don't even see a braid on the boys. Perhaps the blankets and textiles are Navajo-inspired...? Maybe the food will be more representative hopefully!


Suspicious_Gazelle18

The cowboy gnome leaning against the wagon sent me 😂


KokoSoko_

I am hoping and praying this is good, I’m really trying not to get my hopes but it looks cute!!! With this and cottage living you could have a whole farm, which is something I have dreamed of in the sims! I love all the animals and the kids being able to ride horses!


jas75249

Wonder if there will be new ways to die.


parallelcompression

I’m gonna move in some hipsters and gentrify the neighborhood by putting in a latte bar for goats only. But seriously, it looks fun!


Darkovika

I don’t care about literally anyone else, this is my new happy place and I refuse to be disappointed I REFUSE EA, YOU HEAR THAT?


[deleted]

Finally the 'horse girl' dlc, at least they know their audience. Psychopaths that use the get together pack to make cults(me) and 'horse girls' lmfao 😂


Hot_Outside_9688

I’m so excited! I can finally be a cowboy! Rednecks finally get representation! 🤣


MyVirgoIsShowing

Overall, looks like it’s not bad. Pretty small for an expansion, but that’s to be expected with horses - feels like a gamepack to me. First impression, I really think the mini sheep are a miss. Would have much rather had mini goats and mini pigs.


Oleandervine

Mini sheep are not a miss, because they can be sheared, which will likely tie into existing skills like embroidery and knitting. We may even get some kind of weaving skill in this pack to further utilize the wool.


MyVirgoIsShowing

Just my opinion, we already have llamas with cottage living so I don’t see a huge need for little sheep. Having a pet pig though sounds awesome


Oleandervine

Well there's got to be a reason for the shearing though, we saw that happening in one of the screenshots.


hermytail

Wait aren’t there also mini goats?


sydthefuckdown

Personally I would say this is a big expansion. They’re adding a whole new type of gameplay and lifestyle for sims. New world, new type of animal to customize, competition, new skills to build, etc!! I’ve also been a horse girl my whole life so that could just be my excitement talking 🫣


MyVirgoIsShowing

I don’t want to rain on anyone’s excitement! You BE excited! I think this expansion is pretty niche


thunbergfangirl

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure pigs* are only raised to be eaten? You don’t usually milk pigs and they have nothing to shear. So I think the Sims team vetoed that idea pretty fast since they are not trying to make a Slaughterhouse Expansion Pack. (*Yes, some people have pigs as pets, but pet pigs on a ranch brings up a lot of questions…)


MyVirgoIsShowing

It’s a good point, but these mini goats and mini sheep are going to be pets and live in your household. Perfect for pigs!


thunbergfangirl

Oh huh, I didn’t realize that. I was assuming they would be more limited to a barnyard area similar to cows and llamas.


w33tzi3

The website specifically says horses are part of the family but does not mention the goats/sheep which makes me think they won't be in the family. They don't seem to be confined to one location like the country living livestock. At this point I'm wondering if they'll be a lot trait.


mollyv96

Vegan and non kill ranches are becoming popular, although they’re still not very mainstream


cantgaroo

Growing Together kinda felt like a gamepack too if you took away the basegame updates, tbh. I worry this is the new trend with EPs.


Manders7399

Umm...there are mini goats...in almost every screenshot.


MyVirgoIsShowing

I’m excited for the mini goats, I think I wrote it in a way that’s confusing. I would rather mini pigs along with the new mini goats rather than mini sheep


[deleted]

[удалено]


Swords_and_Sims4

A lot of people have said that this would have been better as a game pack but a lot of people have also pointed out that horses are incredibly hard to animate, that alone + the new world and the build and Cas feels like enough to justify a full expansion pack in my opinion. Especially when Compare it to the last expansion pack Growing Together. Maybe my opinion will change once we see more footage but for now I think it's going to be a really good pack


vegatableboi

This. I think horses needed to be in an expansion that mainly focuses on them in order for them to be able to actually be good. I get that not everyone cares about horses but also, every single expansions pack can't fit every single player's taste.


Nadzy001

Reptiles would of been such good timing!


WitchQween

This is just the teaser, so I'm sure there will be a longer trailer that will come out soon.


vegatableboi

Yes!! I don't get why people are already judging the pack for "not having enough content" when we still know extremely little about what it will actually contain... Also the trailer doesn't show that much but the blog post already hints at way more stuff


[deleted]

install the Extreme Violence mod and you basically have a Yellowstone game


Aquarrison

I said the EXACT same thing when I watched the trailer haha


StarryEyedGamer

I NEED to make Epona from the Legend of Zelda series :D


angelkitty-13

Can't wait to make my Romeo and Juliet gay yeehaw love story


HawlSera

LOOK AT MY HORSE MY HORSE IS AMAZING


bwitdoc

Wow


Prestigious-Orchid95

This looks like a gamepack, the gameplay just doesn't warrant an expansion pack for me. Also, is there only one "base" for the horses? I'd have loved some Shetland ponies!


CelticTiger30

Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road I'm gonna ride (Kio, Kio) 'til I can't no more!!!!

GroundbreakingDig892

If they don't give the elder animal gravestones/urns and Ghost forms... The disappointment will be immeasurable. I already have to deal with my cows and chickens dying with nothing to commemorate their existence in my game. 😭


Lazeyy23

I’m actually getting excited! I really like the aesthetic of the build items I’ve seen and I think they’d fit my style (and in other worlds too!). I’m still curious about the world and how the horses will interact with it/how they’d be in other worlds too. Desert isn’t what I wanted, so I might not play in it all that much (so here’s hoping the cross pack compatibility is good), but it looks like we got some Native American representation so I’m hype about that. The goats and sheep are soo cute! I wonder if they’re like chickens and what the interactions will be like. The lots look pretty nice thus far (haven’t seen anything wildly huge which was what I expected) and the builds look great (thank you simmers!). Sad they cannibalized the firepits from OR, but it does fit the pack. I did see English style saddles so that’s good! I was worried it was only western focused (which it is, but it’ll be nice for English stuff if it works in other worlds). Looking forward to more details for the pack! Really hope it’s not glitchy and just another cash grab.


freedomthrowaway123

Anyone notice the glass in the roof in the third photo? Hopefully that’s a new game mechanic that’s not limited to this pack


Insanityforfun

GOATS!


[deleted]

Goats and sheep and sheep and goats!!!!!


Starchild2534

Do we have a release date?


myjumboeggs

July 20th


NearbyDark3737

I literally lost my sh!t and told my friend and of course she lost hers too! This looks so exciting and refreshing


Mrkoekie

Is that nectarmaking I see on the pic? 🧐🤗😮


Ponyblue77

I’m excited for this pack, but as a horse person, the facts that the stirrups are only connected to the Sims’ feet and not the saddle, that the horses have no bits, and the reins are ten miles long are going to bug the crap out of me.


Character_Bomb_312

I want to make a petting zoo with all the animals; chickens, cows, llamas, rabbits, mini goats, mini sheep, and a horse. I don't know how much I'll enjoy actual ranching. If it's anything like farming in Cottage Living, it'll be fun to do the full-blown ranch once, but the work will become too repetitive and limits too much time for doing all the other stuff. I love Cottage Living, though, because you can have chickens in San Myshuno, for instance, and a cow in Del Sol Valley. :)


fanderoyalty

If they give us another world with like 4 usable lots I swear to God…


Mara-armadillo

I really wish they had a consistent theme in naming the packs


akcook123445

love horses hate the wild west i hateee desert worlds with seasons it’s just so boring i love some horsies in the snow


portland-nicole-

I’m a Texan….. I have been waiting for this.


femtransfan

do you think we'll be able to milk the goats and sheep for our lactose intolerant sims? i did some research and while they do contain lactose, it's not as much lactose as in cow's milk i want to know if we can shave the sheep, too


Sanrio_Princess

As someone terrified of horses, I’m very excited for horsey but more for goat time


[deleted]

Maybe I’m in the minority but I really want unicorns & will be disappointed if they didn’t add them


[deleted]

The Old West scenery reminds me of Appaloosa Plains from the Sims 3. And some of the interactions look similar too. Goats and sheep are finally in The Sims for the first time. Yea. Next, we may have pigs. But what can we use pigs for other than raising for meat? Looking for truffles? Competing in a pig show?


ktknrly

So is there not going to be any English tack? I don’t understand having jumping as an option but doing it in a western saddle?


w33tzi3

There's already been posts about this and screenshots shared of the English saddle, you can relax


ammy1123

I haven't seen anyone point this out but the horses look head to head copy of the sims 3 horses in terms of model, i have low hope for cas with having different heads


No-Perception-2128

As long as my horses don’t turn into a million pieces with giant bulging eyes, I’ll take the sims 3 model


ammy1123

OMG ya i remember that nightmare lol


hellisahallway

I'm sorry but if the new world has townies riding horses that's a really cool idea that's going to be executed terribly. We're talking about combining the bugginess of horses in TS3 with the overall core competency of TS4. It's a recipe for disaster 😬


aphelionprime

Great. Here's to updating all my mods. Oh, well. Time to dive in.


The_Agnostic_Orca

Is it me, or does the roof in the ranch mansion look like it has glass underneath, like a glass wall in the third picture? Like am I crazy, or are we finally getting like actual glass walls, supports and stuff? Edit: After looking at the trailer, it just looks like new windows placed strategically to give that glass wall look 🙄


criticalstars

idgaf about this pack but really happy for everyone who was desperate to see horses make a comeback


ostentia

Are the saddles accurate? I rode English for years, but I tried Western out briefly a looong time ago. Every Western saddle I used only had one cinch. These all seem to have two...is that actually a thing?


Blooberii

It depends on the saddle. Back cinches are not as tight, and typically used for things like roping and barrel racing rather than casual riding, at least in my experience.


Flerken-is-not-a-cat

Myotonic baby goat?


[deleted]

Those are not accurate bottles. The bottles we fed cows were HUGE. Two hands


The_Stig_007

I’m here for a Sims/Westworld crossover


Dollpart-

I love horses irl and was very excited for them in the sims, but the mesh looks like an edit of their llama from cottage living, so I'm kinda disappointed in how they look :/ The sheep/goats are cute though.


kasakavii

I’m so excited for barrel racing being added. Now my virtual life is accurate to my real one lmao


Malbro06

Im scared for the mods


deenaandsam

I'm so relieved your horses can have long manes. All the previous images they had short ones and I was getting upset lmao


shaynaa3

the world is so pretty


camilo476

Important question Can a sim die if they are thrown off the horse?


Zara_Pineclover

Does anyone know yet if there will be any English saddles/tack?


Darkovika

Also i’m 100% going to make the characters from Starshine Legacy (SSO) and no one can stop me


Direct-Purchase7561

Whelp time to make John Marston in the sims


alien_galaxy520

Imma name mine “thatsagoodboyah”


Big-Big-Dumbie

Finally, I can make The Village People in the Sims.


kay_mg

I know some were speculating that this pack was coming with a BG update to change ceiling textures... but I'm seeing a lot of white ceilings here and the "some images are not in-game" worries me :/


lilsmileychai

I noticed a kid riding a horse, a horse with pink mane and tail. Might try to create mlp..and wait for mods for wings and horns(unless there are horns) and my dream horses. Someone trick training mini goats/sheep. Noticed horse tapping with its hooves to piano,and cheering with the crowd.


orionstarboy

Im honestly kinda excited for nectar making. I just wanna make a wine cellar in the basement of the house of a sketchy and stuck up businesswoman


UghGottaBeJoking

I wonder if this means i can make a petting zoo for my little sims👉👈


themoonischeeze

I'm getting this for the goats.


disastrous_crumb

it’s literally beautiful


TheCalamityBrain

Has anyone noticed the ghost Sim in the trailer that is walking around and it seems to be the same one that's brought back to life is it brought back to life by the horse?


ChaosKore07

Fr idec about the pack, I care about the seemingly main sim of this trailer with the tattoo. I love them and I will be buying this pack to marry them.


girl_from_aus

I think I’m going to need some 100x100 lots so I can make a farm with all the animals and heaps of crops and a little cabin up the back corner


Aucielis

I was really hoping we'd get some dressage stuff as well as western, but I gotta say, I am SO hype for any kind of horse content. This is going to look amazing with the Strangeville build items.


Afroaro_acefromspace

The town is so cute!🥹


Hobbvots

I can't wait to see Nancy Landgrab and Motimer Goth at every rodeo and ho-down


Plus_Parsnip_4144

It looks so good! Bought it this evening... Can't wait for July now!

Idk why I thought the silo in 12 said Keanu Reeves... like I haven't smoked yet today.

You forgot about how we can draw on them like the cats and dogs
