I wouldn’t be surprised if Sso ended. The game got boring around the end of 2019 after they neglected any quests or new features. Looking back at the older updates from about two years ago, I can see why I spent money on the game; there were lots of quests and events coming out and horses were a special occurrence. Now the game is just a click and buy horses simulator with a horrible currency. It’ll be sad to see Sso go but at the same time they’re digging their own grave

I personally feel that if the the SSO development team focused more on bringing out new story quests, interactivity within the game and quality of life updates (new player/npc models, updating more areas and fixing bugs/animations) more often, rather than bringing new horses out very week, it would bring the game 'back-to-life'. I really don't want to get bored of this game, but there isn't much to do anymore, which does upset me and a lot of other people that I play SSO with. I've also recently started getting the impression that they are more focused on making money off the game (bringing in 'limited edition' horses, bringing back previous magic horses without a heads up and bringing more and more new horses out) , rather than pleasing their audience.

Exactly. I do not want to get bored of this game either, but there's absolutely nothing to do. It was my only comfort place, where I could find myself some friends, nowdays it's just a mess and all of my old friends stopped playing as well. Everyone comes back once in a while, but we leave right after checking the update (and I don't even feel like logging in when there's a boring update, for example new clothes or horses, what could I do with that-) I used to play daily and even when I did everything possible, I still decided to stay and my friends did the same thing. We would talk and do stupid things.. it was fun. I feel like the only thing that's keeping SSO a bit alive now are clubs. Or more likely the club activities (mostly dressage, which was brought in by players, not the team) and even these fun events are dying, because people don't feel like logging in anymore, so clubs are losing activity and people are getting more and more bored. It's sad.. edit: I also don't think that age is the reason why we're getting bored. You can play and do whatever you want no matter how old or young you are. There's even older players that enjoy games like these, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that! You can find yourself fun anywhere, but SSO is killing their own game

In all the years sso has been a game, they’ve always released a new horse every month that’s not this new idea they’ve started doing it’s how it’s always been. And we KNOW that sso has different teams for horse models and story quests, they’re not the same team and we can have both. Quests take longer to make than horses, and again the quantity of story quests being released hasn’t really changed. The sso Instagram said they were waiting longer for story quests to make them longer rather than every two months with a five minute story quest. We have more quests earlier in the game because they’ve been made in the multiple years sso has been a game, and every time a quest is released it has to be written in multiple languages and animated correctly. Horses are easier to make, you only need 1 model for all the horses being released which is why we get more horses than quests

I think what's happening is that the first generation of kids playing sso are growing up, most of us are now at least 16 or so, and have moved on for the most part. hopefully the gen under us (I guess kids like 10-16) will start making videos and it will start a new cycle!

@@hermosa.mariposa you seem to have lots of hope for this game. Not that that's wrong. Just try to understand that the game is indeed, slowly dying. There's mutiple server almost completely empty due to loss of audience. Said audience being players who've done all the quests and have nothing to do. Endgame players usually have lifetime star rider and since they don't log on often due to having no entertaining content, they can accumulate enough star coins to buy whatever horse they want on the release date. And since training also gets boring fast, they log off and don't come back untill they see an item/horse they like. Reputation quests are boring and repetitive, not worth the grind. The game does try to force you to log on every day with daily quests, but there's too many of those and they all get boring rather quick. If the management team doesn't wake up soon, the game is guaranteed to die. That's all I'm saying. You did make a good point with the quests, but that only applies to people whove only started playing the game recently. Most players are level 20+ with nothing to do. Sad tbh

I play SSO for 6 years now. For me 2016 was the best year, the updates were awesome and most of my friends played SSO. Now they just quit. Now the only thing we get in updates are races and horses and things that just come back every year, like the midsummer festival is ALWAYS the same. I used to play alot SSO, but now I just only log on and check my Star Coins that's it. Hopefully SSO will change things and just also care about the players that play for a longer time. And not only releasing just horses. We also want other things. (Btw I don't want to give hate to SSO, this is just my opinion on how SSO is now. 💕)

I've seen many mmos come and go, but I wouldn't say SSO is dying, its just on a general player decline. I think SSO (company ) struggling to deal with the star coin strike was a management issue. The company clearly has issues with communication across the board, so their financial hardships only highlight how fundamentally broken inside communication is.

Honestly, I use to love this game, starstable was a game I could escape from- a very bad reality and I loved horses so much, I found it after finding my bestfriend and afterwards, I just fell in love with SSO, but now that i've grown up, I rarely see myself playing it. I'm mostly playing PC games that are worth my time (Example: Rival stars, or other steam games, like survival games.), the big reasoning was it was so pay to play (p2p/ptp) and it was a shame, I began to just sit back and watch everyone just go with the rythem, then slowly saw people quitting, I use to own a massive guild called Autumn Aces and I basically watched it disappear. I stopped buying SC for awhile now and just got em by saving them every week or so. The game gave me no hope, and hop reason to play and it's a shame. Now the entire community is in chaos, complaining or arguing about SSO or people defending SSO. I get the company needs to thrive and NEEDS money....but how much money has SSO in reality tooken from us with little bribes and trickery? We are all human and temptation is a real thing, and that's what sso has been doing, targeting people, whether it's adults, teens, or children. But it seems the teens and children are a bit more targeted...I just wish this game would fix itself before it lands itself into losing its entire fanbase and it's game....and maybe that would be a good thing for sso tbh, maybe then SSO can start new.

It’s sad really, the game feels more like a chore than something fun. There’s just nothing being provided anymore. I wish the game felt the same when I first started in 2015

I actually just got an Arabian last week after saving up and then this beauty showed up and I was like 👁👄👁

I'm in the rrp side of the sso community and that side of the community is pretty active to be honest. Of course the game is dying but yeah the community is still alive.

Yeahh I wanted this horse too but I'm broke and there is no way I'm going to spend 20 euro's on a pixel < -

id like to add to this video i think it was hilarious at 8:56 when you tried to show the horse's hooves but star stable's camera options don't go down low enough because they STILL haven't added the lower camera option everyone has been asking for!

Congrats on finishing high school Denise

So, I’m in the Star Stable embassy discord server and from what I’ve noticed on there, it seems like the game will die out. The community is barely together anymore, and only 20 of us out of 2,026 members actually participate and even then, what goes on is far from being Star Stable related. Hopefully the devs and management wake up before the game dies, but I don’t think it’s going to happen any time soon

You are 100% correct Denise... This damn game needs to die. It will show the SSO team what happens when players aren't engaged. I've been playing since 2015 and have unofficially quit. My computer won't load Star Stable no matter what I do and I don't feel the need to try and fix it since it's become incredibly boring anyways. The people blindly defending SSO need to OPEN THEIR EYES and see what is happening. It's sickening to see what has happened to this community.

I’ve had SSO since the very beginning, since it was first released. And I don’t even touch it anymore, unless a new horse peeks my interest and I have enough given sc from my lifetime to buy it.

I dropped my tablet on pavement when I saw the title- also I wouldn't be surprised (Even tho I don't play it) I don't see many people make exciting vids on it ppl have been complaining on how bored it is to them I've wanted to play this game since I was 6.. I don't think I ever will or can.. I've never had I computer (with the bad financial decisions I make I'm not surprised I can't afford it) but I will say it will have a place in my heart even if I didn't play it. Every chance I got I would go to yt and watch star stable vids. Horses are a big thing in my family background so it wasn't surprising I wanted to play the game since I didn't have a horse. But I don't think I will waste money on a game I won't touch. But I still might (since I may never be able to ride a horse with my back always hurting and my knees always hurting) and it is just sad to look at the chat according to players bc they said ppl got weird and disgusting rps in chat (sounds a lot like wildcraft -.-) and it just is sad cuz that was my childhood and dream to become a star stable yter look at me now giving up on all social media platforms. Having a tough life. My childhood dreams I can never reach.

It’s been literal years that old players have been speaking up and try to save their game because it truly has a lot of potential and the community used to be a true family. It wasn’t perfect, sure, but it felt really great to have people share the same love for horses and the game. Now people are leaving, getting tired of being ignored by a company they trusted with their money and time. We saw them grow, getting better, and we were excited every wednesday for the updates because they were actually exciting and something to look out for. They were less horses to buy which meant that everyone would be ecstatic when a trailer randomly dropped of a new companion to purchase and train. It seems like it was so long ago since the servers would literally crash and our pc’s would bug because of how many people would log in for quests & horses. It truly is sad that such game with an open world and an exciting story line is about to meet their end because they couldn’t manage to dose how greedy they are. Of course they need money, but the amount of horses they release in such short time notice knowing star riders literally only get 100sc per week, which is approx. 5300sc a year, feels like they’re milking a cow that’s starting to get tired of it. What i would suggest them is to do what made them good in the first place, listening to their players, to the people who make this game going. The majority of players now only play because they found a community and friends through clubs and others. Make them excited to log in again, even slow down the updates to 2 per month, every two wednesdays, we truly don’t care to have less updates if it means better quality. Add to the SR’s allowance so people who truly can’t afford to buy sc’s don’t wait a lifetime before buying a new horse only to see that a better one will get added not even a week later. The possibilities are endless for them to find solutions and fix their problem, make their OG players come back to the game or just be better for the new ones who are still enjoying it. But it all starts with actual communication and not muting out the community y’all worked so hard to get.

I remember a few years ago I took at 2 year break from sso, I just wasn't into it anymore, but I logged on one day out of boredom and started to play again. I found some new friends, some of which I have lost now. But currently about 5 months ago I joined a club, which sadly disbanded, but from that club I found my new best friends, we made our own club (Sunday Doves), it's been going great so far.

I'm being completely honest Star Stables will die in the next couple of years . if Star Stables doesn't change what they're doing .I have no motivation to log on whatsoever. the only reason why I log on everyday is because of my club. Also I find it kind of funny how they release the seahorses again even though they said that it was going to be limited edition.

I will agree to SSO practically digging their own grave, but at the same time I don't want it to "Die" like everyone else seems to be demanding for it to. I feel like it finally entered it's buffering zone where everyone is trying to update to a new style and make new changes hence the updates to Silverglade Village, the characters, and we been teased that the Riding House was even getting a new look, while using horses to try and keep players interested as they go through this. Which is Exactly how they digging their own graves, not saying they shouldn't update to a new look or style, just saying that this alone is why everyone Including me are slowly losing interest because of the constant horse releases rather than actual gameplay updates or quests.

Well, I personally don't think that the game is dying. I live in England and people here who play the game are really into it and pretty much all my club members log on everyday. I see my friends in ALL the time. So yeah, I think that the game is doing fine.

the thing is, when you first start playing it’s actually really fun to play. you get new quests all the time and there’s always new quests coming and things to look forward to, like unlocking new areas and stuff. but for players like me for example and probably the majority of the community, we have absolutely nothing to do. we all have to rely on the weekly updates for things to do, and a lot of the updates nowadays aren’t that exciting. next week for example, we get an old race. that’s it. i understand that it takes time to develop a game. but c’mon, we literally had to wait over 2 years to get another story quest after saving anne

I started playing a year ago and I’m already at level 20. I feel like after the starcoin strike they’re pushing out so many horses just to grab cash; first the percherons, next week the tellina and kampos, and now all the open house stuff. I only log on for my community, the club I’m helping grow (I’m a riding instructor), my best friends online and in general my server. Without them I would have left by now. I have to admit I am buying sc on double, I’m getting 10k and have a plan. I’ll be getting a lusitano or two, tellina, and the new Arabian. Then I’ll only buy the Halloween horses I like, max 2. For other horses, I’ll create a wish list. Then I’ll be saving whilst training the horses I like and will ride (most of them) and until they’re all maxed not buy any horse except limited ones I really want. It should keep me going till Christmas. I hate to see the family I love dying. Sso is digging their grave and NEEDS to listen, and improve its community. I like the maya quests. That was the first ACTUALLY GOOD update in however long. Next week it’s just a race… useful for people who like racing, trash for the rest of people. Literally all I do is do champs, dressy with my club and hang out with my friends. There’s nothing else to do.

omg this horse would be brilliant in dressage’s with that outfit you wore!!

I started playing SSO in 2014. A friend of mine wanted me to play it, so I did. There were really fantastic updates every Wednesday! But in 2019, when I lost my main account to a hacker, I really hated it. Still I managed to play SSO on a backup account of mine, but not as a lifetime star rider. The game updates are really going downhill. When there's a race, sometimes that's all there is. What's nice about that? I hope, and I keep that hope, that SSO will release updates like before + that the game is alive again 🙏🏻

My opinion is that if SSO would understand what their players want, they wouldn't be in this situation and why would a game company not doing what their "money makers" want? Like I play SSO for like 6 years and I always loved it. Now it's not the same, I can't enjoy this game as much as before and it's just sad. I don't want to grow up ;¬;

I’m just wondering if the writers team at SSO just have serious writers block cause it honestly feels like it from a on off writers perspective and that’s why they’re currently doing what they are doing

I completely agree! It's a bit boring now, and even I have seemed to loose a bit of interest. But in the comments I do see some people saying they want updated player models and such, and I'm NOT trying to side with star stable on this one, but I would like to remind everyone that with new player models comes REDOING how ALL of the clothes in this game FIT on the player itself. Other than that I think since they took away April Fools, and gave us back the same old shop for valentines day, with no new clothes & tack we should have gotten at LEAST a 200sc code to keep us engaged. I would have totally bought some star coins for my birthday this week, and have been waiting for double star coins to come so I can support the company a bit, but all there is now is item bundles. I think maybe Double Star Coins may be coming to an end soon :/ Thanks for reading

Even if they focused more on new coats instead of entirely new horses maybe they’d actually be able to fully update the game. 80% just feels so old, it feels like wizard 101 back when I was still playing sometimes..

I really just want more fun and interactive quests and to do quests on the UFO, the Castle up in Golden Hills, and more. I like running around in the game and going race when I’m bored but I haven’t done many quests anymore. I wish they would update the older model horses before bringing out even more new horses ( especially magic ones 💀) I did however get the all black Arabian named Mini

I wish they made a bonding system for wild horses... That would be my dream update

i have been playing sso for abt 3 months now and i still have so much fun playing! i was clubless for abt 4 weeks at one point and didn’t care. i will continue to play for a long time lol

I've only logged on maybe 2 times in the past few months since I fell out with an irl friend I played SSO with, even in the last months of us being friends we would mostly play RDR2 or Minecraft. I want to enjoy SSO again because it's the only big horse game out there, I might try and play more again but it's unlikely to be as fun as it used to be back when I could play for a whole day and still not get bored. SSO has been a big part of my life but the mediocre updates and the fact that all my good memories on it are now tainted (cause of that 'friend') I've mostly moved onto other games as well as doing more in my irl hobbies so I have less time for SSO and won't make time cause I can't have fun anymore. I cannot stress how much I just want to go back to the old days when I could just vibe in SSO and do roleplays or train while singing my music (very badly I must add). Maybe I might play again tomorrow as I will likely need entertainment (I'm going to see family and most of them are lowkey horrible people cause generational trauma y'know), gaming is good escapism I guess.

Congratulations on passing all your exams and graduating!

I feel like the reason why the popular star stable yters aren’t uploading is because they are all graduating, dealing with school, and becoming adults. I feel like the next generation of sso you tubers will come soon.

It’s sad bc it barely feels like a game anymore, when I log on once every few months it feels like a chore

I feel like perhaps a lot of old and well known SSO KZread channels have not been as engaged with the game because a lot of people may have moved on, have acquired other interests or are just fully occupied by school/work etc. It is sad to see, truly, but I can understand why the game is drying out. I literally haven’t logged in for the longest time solely because SSO is just not to my interest. For the longest time, I’ve had a feeling that SSO’s fundamental outlook in relation to the players is the money. Whilst I understand that it is an important part in order for them to develop the game more, they could have done it in a sharper way. The only bond I still have with this game is the fact that I started playing very young and it gives me a little nostalgic thrill from time to time.

I'm level 21 I believe, I've been playing for as long as I can even remember and I never play anymore other than the occasional log on to finish up training, or do story quests. I play alicia online much more often- I find it easier to grind but there are some aspects I dislike aswell. (super sorry if this paragraph was spotty or hard to understand, I recently started a new medication which makes me lose my train of thought extremely easily)

the thing is for me its completely different i havent played in 5 months and since a few weeks im playing again and its really exciting for me to see all the new things and all the new horses they added and its making me so happx but yeah i get it for the people that played all the time because it kinda gets boring but trust me when you take a break from it it will come back to you eventually.

I've taken a year break from SSO. Came back, and I saw it was disapointing as ever. I don't think anything will ever help me like the game again now that I've seen the horrible states it's in.

@@stormhooves2353 well i think they made some big progress in horses, designs and the new areas but thats different for everyone! in my opinion they made some good changes

I'm one of the older players, (I'm literally 25), and even I can admit that this game has gotten really stale. I've been playing for about 6-7 years now, and I will always remember how I found this game by accident, played it for one day and the next day I ended up being a star rider, because I enjoyed it so much (and mind it was back in the time when it still had the old graphics and models, you could literally count all the pixels). I couldn't stop playing for at least 2-3 years.... Untill it started to go more and more stale. First was the chat ban outrage, how we got chat banned for even the smallest thing. Then we started to see overpriced pets in Dundull, and how people were angry how SSO advertised a double star coin weekend, and right after that on the next update we got the "Buy star coins and you get a silver fox pet!" Then more and more things started to pile, but all that back then wasn't as bad as it is now. Horses every month. Special, limited time offers. Not a single quest, instead you get reputation grinds with nearly no character experience attached. Yes, we finally got some story quests, but I swear I couldn't count on one hand how many bugs and glitches I encountered during it. It was very clear it was very rushed, possibly cuz of the recent outrage. World events like midsummer, each year the same thing over and over with the same old bugs. I won't sugarcoat. It's a cash grab now, that preys on children's need to stand out with special things. Me, as a working adult, maybe I have the privilege to buy star coins whenever I can afford or feel like it, but even I don't buy it unless it's double star coins, because the base amount is just absurd. But let's be honest, the main target audience of this game are kids age 9-16, and we all know kids want to feel included, they will want that glowy new thing that everyone else has, even more so when there's pressure of it being special and for limited time. So they ask parents hard earned money (unless they worked for it themselves, tho it's still their parents money) to buy it, and the cycle repeats over and over with each new limited horse/pet/item. And THATS how SSO preys on kids to get their money, cuz kids are easier to manipulate. There might be some younger audience here, that might backfire at me, but honestly, as someone, who has worked in retail and in sales for years, this is legit the truth, that kids will always want the new shiny thing cuz everyone else has it. They don't want to feel left out, so they will buy it despite not even knowing it was the company's intent, tho not voiced loudly of course. Come at me all you want, but I've seen it first hand how this all works, and SSO is basically milking children from their money. It would all be fine and ok, if they actually listened to their players, especially those, who have played for years, for advice, what needs to be added, what needs to be fixed etc etc. Actually listen to feedback. But they don't, and I don't see them changing that anytime soon.

well said.

i wish sso could give us 200 sc once a month for pay once firestar. it would be really good bc then sso would get more attraction and players, i wish the horses didnt cost so much :c

It hurts to see sso go but there's hardly anything left to the game once the main storyline quests have been completed. I've been a player since like 2015 maybe?? I still remember the old starter horses, before dundall and when we still had to click and drag the ticket onto the side of the bus we had to wait for. But I just can't find enjoyment in playing anymore

I only started to play like last week and the servers go dead at like 5 O clock in the evenings (I'm on Ireland servers) and nobody in my club logs on any more and then people will log on at like 1 O clock in the day and then just disappear,it's really sad

i started playing in 2013 and played religiously till 2017, now every once in a while i’ll get on and play for a week straight and then won’t touch it for another year lol. but i will forever love this game

I started playing SSO in 2012 and honestly I feel like the game has been dead for some years now. Back then, when I was a kid, the game was so exciting. I used to wait for every update playing with my friends or even with complete strangers, training my horses, doing quests etc. Whole community was so nice and calm, even if we had dramas, they weren't that big and they didn't happen that often. But it all felt right. And now I just can't imagine the players being that integrated. Surely there are the ones that wanna play with others, but you know what I mean. I really don't want to say this but right now SSO is only about buying new horses (every three weeks 🤪) and searching new bugs or glitches, and it's really sad to look at it from the perspective of a person who was playing the game from the very beginning. I personally have too many good memories to just leave the game and never come back, but I think it will happen some day, because SSO is doing nothing to stop old players from leaving

yep. its really sad, but i feel like i don't even know what star stable is anymore :( the game got boring so quickly, its their fault, they made the wrong decision to many times. and it all came down to this. i come on for updates, thinking something might have changed, but nope. nothing did. ill stay on for about 5 minutes, then go. and they are so money hungry, no body can defend them anymore.

Ik star stable is dying but PLEASE keep uploading i love ur channel!

Denise: it looks like butter The Andalusian: and I took that personally..

I mostly agree with the general public. Most of the reasons the game is "falling apart" is because people are growing up and realizing how bad and unprogressive the game actually is, and of course, we all know SSO is very money hungry. But another reason that's sort of left out, is the fact that when we were younger we just *liked* doing more things. We probably read all the quest lines, roleplayed, cared more about our horses etc. Growing up, you start to actually want a *good* game, and we don't really have that. Edit: The only reason I play is because my sister and I play together, we care about our horses and make personalities for them and stuff, but if I was playing alone or only had SSO friends that were quitting anyway, I 100% would not be playing this game everyday. It shows that the only enjoyable thing about it is having someone else to be and have entertainment with, the game itself is not good enough anymore. I think the only hope for SSO is if more people start to realize these issues, go on more strikes and stop paying for Star Coins, and SSO finally pulls their head out of their as* and stops sucking up our money for pixels that aren't even special anymore.

I play sso a lot more and I don’t get star coins often it doesn’t mean I hate the game I just don’t wanna buy the star coins we all have different opinions and we should be posting and engaging more so we can keep the game going! I have had 5 of my friends join the game this year and I hope the game never losses it’s worth

i haven't bought any star coins at all this year, and last year i only bought them 4 times (i think it was like 1500 in total). I've still managed to buy the horses that I've wanted and honestly i don't think the game deserves our money at this point with how much they've changed everything

I’ve been playing since 2013 and I stopped playing so many times. But I always come back and train horses. I miss the old time but also love the new one.

do you have the blak aribian kas i tink abaot bayat and i dont know if i want the aribian ore the niow horse

I played sso for how long i can remember honestly. I played the game every. Single. Day. I almost cried when i couldnt play it for a day😅 Yes i was young but the game was so much better and yes they improved with how the game looks but there is literally nothing nice to do anymore... in the past i had so much to do and had a lot of online friends to play with and we were having so much fun and they all quit because its so boring. I havent played for a long time and i don’t enjoy it anymore i wish they would just listen to us :(

I got the game in July 2020 and I still play everyday.

SSO is finally closing down after the company sold the copyright. In 2022 there will be an announcement on the website stating that anyone that still has star rider status is not going to be refunded their subscription. This is why they started doing more youtube sponsors, and more ads on google.

If Star stable ended I would cry. Then look at my receipts and cry more. Then I would have rage. Then I’d literally have to be a Roblox or Minecraft KZreadr 😞 It would really suck. Maybe I should fly over to Sweden and make them listen…

The game is literally sitting taking up space on my pc, I got a lifetime Christmas 2019 really I have no motivation to play it anymore. Everyone of my friends left or dont play and it's so boring now.

Im not surprised either its been few months that the game is boring I only connect to buy the new horses, I spent alot of money on this game but something changed and I liked how old sso looked like, I mean old silverglade was nice but now its just new and yea I dunno if you see what i mean. But do you think they are gonna delete sso or just stop making updates and just leave the game as it is or are they gonna keep trying?

Also Dennis what server are you on?

It makes me sad to see that SSO is struggling to keep it's player base alive, i've been playing the game for exactly 2 years, since i'm not an older player, the game is still fun and entertaining for me, but i know many people are bored and dissapointed and for good reasons. SSO has a lot of potential, i hope the community stays together for more time ❤

At this point I'd actually be happy to see SSO die so that something better could rise from its ashes. Because of the company ignoring the pleas of their players for several years now I've completely lost hope. We won't get the miraculous turnaround that we've all been waiting for. No offense to the Star stable team, just an opinion.

I sort of agree, because if more people leave - so noticeable that SSO realizes how many people are uninterested in the game now - maybe change will happen. But unfortunately at the end of the day, there will always be some younger audience that doesn't care about these big corp issues and they'll just want their parents to keep buying them horses (which is understandable too for younger kids).

I’ve been playing this game since 2015 and I loved it. It has been my childhood. Since Christmas 2020 I’ve haven’t been playing much. I think it’s just bc the updates are boring. I come online once a month bc there is an ‘exciting update’ a new horse or a mission. I left my club and now there’s nothing to do. Im not suprised if its dying.

The interaction Ui is the new "e" function I think?

Truthfully, the main reason I’m still continuing the game is because I had stopped playing for four years so I have quit a few quests and new areas to unlock. It’s a game that kept me going when I didn’t have much else. Plus I started playing it when I was only 8/9 and now I’m turning 18 in three months, so it’s got a very special place in my heart.

i have a question, if the game got like shut down.. would everyone get refunded for all the money they spent? ik probs not but just wondering

Definitely not. SSO would never return our money. Sad that they're so money hungry now.

I used to love Sso so much, I’d log on almost every day and *try* to go to every club event. I had lots of amazing friends who I’d spend hours on call and playing with. I’d also just spend ages questing, but now I log on for 5 mins and I’m already bored. Maybe it’s just cause I’ve grown up now and have better things to do🤣

One of the staff of the SSO team said that there will be more quests coming! Stay patient guys💜

I’m confused on this is sso closing? Please say the right answer if you don’t know then just say idk.

I barely log on anymore and i havent bought star coins since last year. I basically buy the new horses when my weekly sc income can allow it. As a player from 2016, i could see how the weekly updates got repeateadly boring and i dont know how to feel about it anymore. It sucks to see how slow and eventless the community feels nowawadays

I really think this might be sso last year but maybe not who knows. I also wanted to know how much sc we got this year just with the weekly 100 sc and that is 2.900sc, so say you want one horse from every breed that came out this year starting with the jorvik friesian, you would need 4.350sc, this is without any of the magical horses or the ones that are staying for a limited time, so either you need to have around 1.500sc left from last year to get one horse of all of the new breeds or you are gonna have to buy sc, this isnt even with the one day stable care strategy, that’s somewhere around 420sc this year alone. I am not even talking about how much it is gonna cost you if you wanna buy more than one horse from a breed and all of these breeds cost 750+ sc. Really I am done with sso, I might actually quit, been playing for 6+ years now but this is outragious, I barely come online anymore, it took me a week to even wanna do maya’s new quest, I used to love training but now I am barely doing it cause it feels like a task and its just all the same.

i personally never cared about the quests and just played to ride around and see new horses. now i also like club stuff (i have a dressage club) and taking pics. tbh i groan when theres new quests cause theyre boring for me but i get that for some theyre the reason they even play. for the community, honestly, having played since 2013 or so there never really was a community imho

I've been playing SSO since 2016 and it's really sad seeing this game die. But I also feel like it's time for me to move on completely from SSO. I've been uninterested in the updates for like 3 years now. I'm tired of logging in just to buy new horses.

i love this horse and i just bought it because i saved my money to get this one when it was SUPPOSE TO COME OUT WITH THE REST but i didnt and i cried and tbh i hate the rear and hardstop because it walks you forwards a bit i love going up the mountains to take pictures and when it does the hard stop when im about to fall off the mountain it walks me off and i slide down AND HAVE TO MAKE MY WAY BACK UP AND ITS ANNOYING AS FUCK

I started playing the game the first year it began.. I have been a star rider for years.. And I still always go back. I did start Equestrian The Game recently but it's not much better than SS right now. When they implement breeding, though, I think that may be the end.

I started playing in fall of 2018. I quit for a year and came back in 2019, played for like a week then quit again. I started playing during COVID, got lifetime, and have been playing ever since. I’m playing less and less now because it’s getting boring with no quests and less interesting horses and tack. Hopefully they do SOMETHING that brings a bunch of people back. With the SSO con, a lot of people came just to see people, I haven’t seen many submissions tho.

I had the BEST time in this game for a month, and then finished the main quest line and got bored, I loved looking forward to what was going to happen next.

I recently had to cancel my SSo subscription and uninstall the game, because my laptop genuinely couldn't load into the game anymore- and I was actually bummed out because it is a bit of a guilty pleasure but not enough of one that I'm going to drop money on a PC. I have been playing the single month subscription since like February or so, and genuinely was thinking of just buying the game- I'm so glad I held off but still disappointed I can't play it.

hi i'm gonna steal your name idea cause i'm jealous ♥

OMG I LOVE YOUR VOICEEEEEE

I moved on to other games. A couple of new single-player games were released which I thought are interesting and now I spend most of my gaming time playing a single-player open world RPG.

I didn't even know we had a no buying starcoins month. Thats how easy it is to fall out of this fandom ig. I am lowkey sad that there is a possibility the game may just simply die. I mean I dont really have much to do, but i like playing now and then and I've been playing for about 8 years now, ofc I aint gon let it go. It also feels like Starstable gave up starstable, you know? They're making a new game, and when I first heard about it, I felt like they're just casually walking away from their mess. As if nothing happened. I pondered on buying star rider to one of my alt accounts, so I have smt to do during summer, even with discounts, its super pricey.

what the game has become makes me so sad. i’ve been playing since christmas of 2018 and played everyday until about september 2020. i had so much fun until it just became a money similator (i can’t spell that well) and so many of my friends stopped playing. i still play just for the memories and to record tiktoks and train my horses but other than that, i don’t feel motivated to long on anymore.

So there's a theory that I saw saying SSO was created as a money making machine, and the developers want to let it die. It would explain why they are making a new game, when they haven't even come close to finishing this one and fixing it's problems. I really hope that is not true.
