I wish the hind end was more engaged too because in dressage and basically any equestrian sport the power comes from the hind end but the liver chestnut IS SO GORGEOUS!

[@oogabooga5207]

yeesss, this is the first thing I noticed :')

[@e.l.l.e.2.5]

yess exactly! the hind end is so so so important

[@Equines_and_Animals]

My first criticism is that the poll is not the highest point of the horse, and that the extended trot is animated abusively.

[@Icy_815]

Why does SSO refuse to give their horses some actual fluidity in their fast gallops. We’ve seen they can do it like the mustang, hell even the Connemara has amazing animations to this DAY. I get there’s different teams but omg, it’s infuriating to see such a beautiful model wasted on horrendous animations.

[@henrietta9394]

They just slapped the Belgian warm blood gallop on, it’s so ugly and close to the floor. It would be so nice for the horse to actually stretch out and the fast gallop to feel actually fast

[@havidikevidi]

@@henrietta9394 no it's way uglier than the belgian warmblood's gallop.

[@cloudyyy_dragons]

@@henrietta9394 Agreed, I mean literally i have never seen a horse gallop like that, sure, theres going to be some, but even for a dressage horse, it’s a very odd gate.

[@spellywelly]

Valegro makes me blink, too. I have a BSc in Equine Science and studied colour genetics. And my eyes STILL swear blind he’s a liver!

[@S-sj2vi]

Looks bay to me

[@keri22443]

for someone who has ridden Dutch Warmbloods (I do dressage) these gaits are over the top but are pretty accurate for breed (but def a FEI horse 😂)

[@That.one.horse.editor939]

Love these horses some of the gaits are stiff. but the coats are just spot on

[@VixxTheFoxx]

Valegro is a bay with an interesting clip and they based the Warmbloods on abused FEI warmbloods so that’s why the gaits are so bad. Editing again : the legs are based off the FEI horses that are rolkur trained so the gaits are exaggerated but the neck isn’t hyperflexed so it looks funky because the neck and legs are not matched in exaggeration and also the extended trot is based off of the FEI extended trots which are not natural

[@AmeliaDreambell]

that makes a lot more sense, thank u!

[@sugarkats21]

aw that's so sad : (

[@crowngamer901]

I want to comment on the Valegro thing and say I used to ride a pony who was a very obvious bay in the summer and then looked kind of like a liver chestnut in the winter. I’m sure it was his winter coat that made him look like that but it was so weird to little kid me that horses could just change coat colors like that haha

[@VixxTheFoxx]

They don’t even let them grow winter coats, they put blankets on so they can’t grow one

[@crowngamer901]

@@VixxTheFoxx Interesting, I didn't know about that

[@henrietta9394]

@@VixxTheFoxxit’s actually the type of light they have in the stables! It keeps the daylight time the same as summer, so they don’t shed their summer coat 😊

[@TheNutters768]

@@VixxTheFoxx because many dressage and any competing horse works in the winter, they may not compete but they still train, they still workout. They're clipped in winter because sweat and that cold of weather is not a good mix, unless you want sweat to literally freeze onto the horse and create painful scabs, you clip the horse like you would the rest of the year with working horses. It's for the horses benefit to keep their winter coat away.. unless they aren't working but some non working horses will still need it clipped... that being the ones with cushings. Some also oddly don't grow winter coats even if out 24/7, i know a few people who had horses who just wouldn't grow a winter coat so they had to rug them. I know some who rug horses even with a winter coat because they still shiver somehow (has nothing to do with the owner). It helps them not overheat so fast, and then that much sweat with the cold... again, not good.

[@CookieFoxx]

a bay has dark gray skin like you see on it's muzzle, so when you clip them to have really short fur, that gray shimmers through the coat, making the entire horse look gray-ish

[@HorseGoesMeow]

the SOCKS make this breed i'm ngl. Chestnut? best socks. Cremello?? With socks??? Might finally buy a cremello.

[@vknightclass]

i love the dapple grey since spoilers, they did so well on the dapple. the dapple on the TWH was disappointing

[@bee-iw1ch]

Valegro makes me confused too. Blueberry is actually is his barn name which throws me so hard!! Can never tell.. every fricken photo is different.

[@zz.vortex]

The fast gallop really triggers my soul, it reminds me so much of a cheap horse game where they don’t really have good animations. I’m only going to buy one since I buy one of every single new horse that comes out but I’m not using it until it gets updated (hopefully), they did such a good job on the mustangs, why couldn’t they do that for the Dutch warmblood? It’s like they rushed the whole thing and didn’t take their time with the horse, my soul has been triggered. 😭

[@zz.vortex]

The chestnut reminds me of the trakehner coat

[@charlotte.eq1]

i just bought a horse the other day and i swear every time i buy a new horse star stable comes out with a new one the next day.. every single time.

[@MintFroztyIzWeird]

I own a Dutch warmblood. He looks similar to the dark bay, but with socks and a bigger blaze. These horses look so much like him-it’s scary XD they are so well done :)

[@yourpersonalfrenchfry]

I quit sso then saw the chestnut and re got sso. Brought it. And now I spend about a million hrs a day on it, the chestnut gives me the same vibes as my heart horse so I’m obsessed with it. I haven’t stopped riding it from I got it

[@lenariverlund]

I stayed up for this too :') lovely video by the way Mellee

[@oranjebeer6637]

I’m gonna watch your vid when I’m home from school!!

[@denisedolphinpark]

It’ll be fun to see who uses these as dressage horses- already saw a club whose gonna use it, the gaits aren’t the best but I do like the trot, but not a horse I’d use for dressage (yet again, I don’t like warmbloods & didn’t like the Belgian either but I like the coats of the Dutch)

[@sadieadler3065]

As a dressage rider of 8 years, I adore the piaffe, the way its flexing and looks so elastic is beautiful, and I love the Glamourdale feel to the ext. canter, but overall they aren't as good as I was hoping they'd be :(

[@pbpbp]

note on the dw : the conformation + it's movements are that of a horse who lacks muscle, engagement, and overall soundness. if you notice (nit picky here!) hind end muscle does't move in the game, the hind legs do of course, but the muscle on the butt and top end of the topline do not move, this to the eye makes it look like the horse is moving completely backwards. at the walk, the head bobbing can be signs of lameness, at the trot the horse stalls A LOT and seems very uncomfortable, at the canter right hind seems dead lame and head bobbing and stalling continuous, hand gallop as you said the lack of neck movement is unrealistic and horse is landing very hard and just looks the the result of foul breeding. confirmation wise, the horse is slightly overweight, at least it's weight does not equate to the muscle on the horse, and muscle needed to perform these gaits, (side not, saddle sits slightly too far back on the horse, pushing the idea of the horse being slightly overweight.). your point on it looking like the rider is holding the horse on the bit is exactly why all these gaits look the way they do. horse is WAY too round with 0 hind end engagement ( which ='s a backwards horse who isn't using muscle to move forward off the leg). a frame is carried out through proper hind end engagement and a steady connection. these horses are more likely than not based off overbred dressage horses who rather then being trained and taught these gaits were bred for them, giving them the ability to move like this without proper training and muscles. many horses these days, in the higher ranks, will perform these gaits by skipping alllllll the steps in between which equates to them moving backwards and just wrong. overall well done horse, just nit picky things that make the whole picture look off. horse seems to also seems to lack soundness in many gaits. if they would have spent a few more weeks on these horses i would be happy. i love sso but also love to critique them lol. so many hrose before this have be executed well, just wish they'd done a little more. further note; the coats truly are remarkable. the chestnut reminds me of a horse i showed for a few weeks last year, and the face marking is that of a hrose i leased for finals this year... i am so impressed with them!

[@em..lovescats123]

i love the liver chestnut, i think i am going to buy that one. but i am probably gonna wait until i have some more star coins just so that i have some left after i buy one and i can train my other horses in the meantime also you dont have to carry a brush and hoofpick?? didnt know that and i still have it in my inventory all the time. i also still drag it to my horse instead of clicking the thing lol

[@RosemaryJewelhaven]

Ya’ll are so quick with it I love the new horses though so I understand😂

[@gladeseason3462]

Wait omg you’re right about the reverse backup animation thing haha. I love the horses otherwise

[@charlotte.eq1]

2:52 the coat colour is either silver bay or smokey bay.

[@PhoenixRisingFinally]

I own the dapple grey and the cremello. SSO did a great job on them!

You are right on Valegros barn name its blueberry, but his nickname is so cute, blubs!

[@LynxfireeGaming]

I love the cremello Dutch warm blood and that’s the one I’m planning on buying

[@caro_lina7034]

Hey Amelia! What laptop(or PC) do you have? I’m really curious about it, because my computer broke and i’m about to but a laptop, but I want it to be good to run sso AND reshade as well. Thanks for your answer❤️

[@isabellasponies]

i would totally but these horses if they have a different trot like ik they are dressage horses but most dressage horses dont have a casual trot like that

[@weepingseas_]

what do you use to record?? i need help figuring things out 😅

[@thatequestrian3331]

I’m in Florida right now and I still want to watch

[@tinaw.5538]

Personally i love the dutch warmblood, purely because of the gaits. With the bouncy gaits and the ears always forward, I have the black one, and to me it looks like the horse is having as much fun playing with me as i am with him.

[@michellebrown5590]

I’m getting one this Saturday and it’s going to be the orange one

[@AceOfCards.]

I feel like the extended canter looks more like a jumping gait, like how horses look riding up to a jump??

[@AlastorIsIThyRadioDemon]

I love the dutch wb, its my first ever bought horse in sso. But the only thing i hate about it is the normal gallop, i know its dressage - y but i hate how the horses hooves go so up high and it doesnt even look like a gallop

[@aparkinson]

Hi melee! This is a bit late but I love your videos smm!

[@oogabooga5207]

the special movement is just called an extended trot haha, the special trick is also a piaffe!

[@NovaHighyear]

( just an idea) maybe you could use the chestnut Dutch Warmblood for a grown up Rowan like you did with Dash for the RRP

[@kiki.hugh.]

I refuse to buy sc rn, and I didn’t get a new dartmoor because I have been waiting for the DW. I’m prob going to get the dappled one or the chestnut.

[@Filippa_Claywright]

I love the Warmbloods but I have no starcoins because I spent them on 2 horses 😭 they are gorgeous tho 💕

[@Carla_flowerlord]

To me the special gate looks like the gate in big lick but you know not abusive

[@beestheboss17]

I wish the gallop animation wasn’t so stiff, that’s my only thing. Other than that, it would be perfect

[@Potterhead778]

I wish I could buy them- I’ve been waiting so long, but my old MacBook ran out of space, so I need to save for a PC. Should be a year, but I’ll be fine 😅

[@equine..xedits]

I can never tell if valgreo is like a dark gray or a bay he looks different all the time

I want one so bad! But alas I can’t get one until the end of the month

[@UserSJ71]

Please please pleaaaaaaaaase do a rrp with this horse, it's so pretty :DD

[@jpjaku]

I really wish their neck wasnt that high up! It looks very much like it's holding back and it bothers me sooo muchh😭

[@RebeccaRavenbird]

I agree, if it was just a few degrees lower I would like it more

[@w3w3w3w]

Their neck looks like it's in rollkur and it's so gross.

[@Horeses4ever25]

I don’t why but i feel like the special move is big lick(which is abuse)

[@BugabooBellaMLBtextingstories]

The liver chestnut is the most beautiful chestnut horse in sso ever ❤❤❤❤❤

[@BugabooBellaMLBtextingstories]

I also love the fire chestnut

[@ripple_snacplayer8593]

I am going to say (even after 4 months now), they took inspo from the wrong place when doing the extended trot. The toe flick is not a good motion for the animal and can cause it damage. Even if it may seem so harmless, it’s not a good motion. Rattle has spoken on this even, showing in their video what a true extended trot and piaffe is. I personally find this horse weird, but like you have said it is for the specific audience of dressage riders that want a dressage savvy horse. I being not that person XD

[@sarahloo2295]

Wait…you don’t have to carry a brush and a hoofpick anymore? wow

[@roninemeth]

you dont have to take the brush and the hoofpick with you????

[@thelynx2939]

honestly i like them a lot, but to me the neck looks like it is gonna cause permanent neck pain and it should be less curled in my opinion or at the very least not be so stiff. Coming from a showjumper who only does the basics in dressage

[@lindil1111]

FIRST TO WATCH I love the bay and the dapple grey

It feels illegal to be this early to Amelia!

[@CloverHunterJumpers]

1:21 fr :/ I’m a hunter and literally get told I suck bc I don’t jump 3’6. Bc the horses I ride can’t do it. And even when ppl don’t say anything to you I feel like it’s just a discipline you feel you have to be perfect in and it just all in all makes you rly insecure abt your riding if yk what I mean?

how are you galloping on your paso fino when it’s level 1?

[@AmeliaDreambell]

cause I bought it before the horse progression update, if you bought a horse (90% of mine) before horse progression was added, nothing is hidden behind levels. If I were to rebuy this Paso now, I’d have to level it to gallop

HI MOM

[@Pine.._..]

I just got to say, everyone is complaining about them stiff.. but if you don’t like it don’t buy it. It’s not that deep and it’s a bunch of pixels

[@AmeliaDreambell]

The whole point of these videos and my channel is to give an honest review of the horses so people don’t have to waste their star coins. I collect the horses anyway, I always buy at least two of each breed and I have since 2015. Nobody is saying it’s that deep, but providing critique especially since I’m a star stable affiliate is crucial. They are more likely to see the critique. When you actively buy a product, you want it to be decent. They’ve fixed horse stiffness in the past, and it’s likely they will do it again if there is enough outreach about it.

[@Anonymous00319]

The animations are definitely very rough. It's kind of disappointing. I'm wondering if they didn't get a new animator or something because the last few horses have been the same way.

[@destineealexis8045]

Ngl if you’re not using this horse for dressage the trot makes the horses hide leg look lame 👀

[@sri7740]

Honestly a little disappointed. Warmbloods are bred to have a powerful pushing hind end AND a powerful back. The reason they look unnatural is because there is no lift in the back, no push from behind and the articulation in the front legs is EXTREMELY exaggerated. This is not how KWPN horses move, this is how someone who has no idea how dressage horse's bodies work THINKS their bodies work. For a game, I think its good but I just wish SSO would give them some more hind leg push. Also, Dutch Warmbloods/KWPN are bred for both jumping AND dressage. With their athletisism and temperment, well bred kwpn can do both. Coming from someone who trains young Dutch horses. I prefer the Belgian Warmbloods movement and jump 😭 which is something I was not expecting.

[@w3w3w3w]

These horses scream stiffness, unnaturalness, and hyperflexion. They are clearly based off of abused warmbloods. I also think SSO should stop making discipline based horses, and make the horse how it is naturally with a few special gaits here and there. But, these horses still are FEI abuse standard, which is unnatural and honestly makes me cringe just looking at.

[@AmeliaDreambell]

I can understand why you’d say that, some of the gaits are really pushing it

[@FinnandMilo]

When your 49 star coins away and don't wanna buy SC: ...Ok. Can you lower the price?
