I am so glad that I am not the only one who got stuck on spring star, I am from belgium (neighboring country of the netherlands and also the same language as the netherlands) my account was created on the dutch server strawberry meadow.... i moved to spring star once for the peace and quiet and can't go back for a long time now. all the dutch servers are gone while they were always there before. all my friends are on the dutch servers. I don't really mind being on spring star but sometimes i just miss talking dutch in the chat. On spring star you can only speak english in the chat otherwise your messages don't arrive....

A game is created to entertain. SSO is not a game anymore, obviously. The ideas of the old developers are now collecting dust on the cutting room floor, never to be utilised in any way. This is a great shame, and a disappointment, sometimes i wonder what could’ve been of the storyline. Back to my entertainment tangent; SSO is not a entertaining product, it is slow, dull, sad and unsaturated If SSE had put in a better effort to listen to criticism, apply it to their game and work harder on making sure the game is actually fun, we could’ve avoided all of this.

I feel like everything nowadays has a very thick filter on it and it has now affected sso too. It feels devoid of anything, it feels bland and everything feels like it’s targeted towards kids under 10 years old when before it was more 11/12 years old and up. The whole story is basically different and so much is left and forgotten that actually could have a BIG part of the story and the story just being good. I it’s not gonna be fun anymore when it’s only focused on new and very young children. The whole game is just lacking now and small things that made the game so much more inversive is gone. They add challenges in the wrong places and take away where it used to be and where it should be

its prolly cuz we grew up grew out of it basically

9:03 this is actually some of lisa's music in aucostic "darkness falling"

Thing I miss is the clubs…rn the ways clubs work is just confusing or toxic I miss when it was happy and not level restricted just to come together and have fun Not to mention the star coin codes getting so less and less worst is the way the way sso treats its players…when u got a glitch or bug and you ask for help they shove blame onto you If you got hacked they tell u that it’s your fault cus you must have shared your password Even if you wanna help sso by telling them about hackers you can face being suspended or even banned cus they read the emails not fully and give cookie cutter respondses this breaks the trust players have in sso wich already is getting less and less by the way sso just ignores things awful players do: some abasitors, hackers, cheaters and just straight up predators. In short sso also needs to listen to feedback and change their ways. Not to mention the way they talk abt the JS with the level cap is insane. Why put it there when some items are for seriously 10000 JS it just forces to buy with sc. (Sorry for my bad spelling English isn’t my first language)

Honestly this video encompasses everything i'm unhappy with. I think they could benefit from doing just hot fixes and doing bigger updates once or twice a month. I think SSO is also on a ledge that could potentially lead to the end of the game. The push of the constant in-game purchases especially in this economic state is a bad idea and them doing a lot sales recently seems to maybe be the results of it.

Walks in Moorland still can be triggered in Moorland, just walk around while no other music is playing (avoid refurbished areas that starts a permanent music). Go to the shore near Demascus Mine. A shorter version of Winner's Circle is still playing after non-refurbished championships, unfortunately not the full song, only the beginning. The second part is played when you place down a picnic bag. Vanished is in quest, can't be triggered if you have completed them but it's still in the game. Scarecrows and Witches is playing during the rabbit race. Edit after watching the entire video: The level up jingle is from Welcome to Jorvik (a.k.a Jorvegian Mornings), it's near the end just before the last part.

thats not the old sso.💀🙏

I remember putting my alarm on 4am back in 2019 on schooldays. Just to play sso that day :')

The issue is the new company. The old developers were passionate about the game. The new developers are passionate about money. 😕

SSO actually released the Star Rider option with no star coin allowance again in December 2023 and it caused a huge fuss in the community because SSO didn't disclose the difference between the regular and cheaper option. Some people covered this story here on You Tube because of the uproar and I think the option only exists to mislead people

Brought soooo much nostalgia 😢

THE OLD MUSIC IM GONNA CRY

Hearing Walks in Moorland made me cry 🥲💔

as a 2015 player hearing walks in moorland brings me so much memorys that it made me cry.

I play sso since 2013... It's amazing how game came all this way and changed throught the years I love new textures and horses, BUT when office and developers of sso changed the game also changed for worst. The main quests don't make any sense now, they are short and when SSO added new dark rider... like for what? We need end of main quests and i hope the finale will be somethig big and nostalgic tbh. Music also was something what made the whole game look different. Why they changed it? idk it was unnecessary...

6:30 you made me cry 😭🤚🏼 this is the main reason why i play sso without music 😭

I miss the events... 😢

I hope that someone will buy out this failing company and bring the game back to a state where I can play it without feeling guilty about wasted time🤞

I wonder if SSO will ever revisit Dino Valley and it's forgotten storylines and create content around it. Ashland is still a mystery, the Ice witch is still a mystery, where the Kallters left to is a mystery and overall the atmosphere of Dino valley and what it's hiding is a mystery all together. I want to see Dino valley get more quests and lore.

Hearing the old soundtracks makes me emotional and think back on when I played Star stable as a kid😢

to be honest the new stables look a lot like the old ones, but it is darker, but i actually really like the stables😗😂

I did NOT know there was a no allowance version of lifetime StarRider. That is crazy. I bought the membership in 2014 for I think 60€. You really must feel scammed. There is no way to transition to a membership with allowance, right?

Everytime I hear the song of South Hoof I feel like a little kid lol. I hope they won't remove/change the last songs that are still there

Although i only joined in 2020, sso was still a massive part of my childhood. I miss alot of old sso, it feels like all they care about now is releasing horse after horse; They used to always have updates for special events such as april fools and valentines day, those are gone now or heavily adjusted. I can't stand the new game to the point its severely boring when logging on. I just wish they had more content that people enjoy, and that changing everything wasnt so important to them. In a way, the game feels much more modernised compared to its previous cozy-type gameplay.

I miss when sso felt “creepy”. Like even tho the graphics are obviously better now, I miss the fuzziness and cartoon effect and all the weirdness that came with the stories and map

The new music is... plastic. Not mysterious or 'grungy' at all. Which is why I tried the game in the first place. Shit looks like the sims now :(.

The home stable song has not been removed though. It is still there.

The thing with the new graphics and textures is that the old one was so original and different from other games. The new ones just feels to new and similar to other games like Fortnight. And that's another thing that drew me to this game.

Wow, this video. You really did a great job making it. And I admit, back in the good old days I had more fun playing it. The music is such a feeling of nostalgia. And I really miss it, such as the old Steve’s farm. The population is still crowded. But back then everyone would ride on a Friesian gen 2. And the friesians never got better. I hope gen 3.5 would hit but the spoilers tell me it doesn’t. Sso a few years ago was much more a community. Between the players and the sso team. And even the players were a community. They would even help you with all kinds of silly things. Thank you for this video, you hard work will be pleased!

I do admit I do miss the SSO. I agree with you on some parts but I’m also glad they do updates. But we can’t always have what we want, we can have are opinions yes can we give them are ideas? Yes. But when they do update what people want everyone gets so mad. And the music made me cry when I Hurd them lol and silver glade highlands reminds me of Skyrim for some reason

Speaking of music, It's a very interesting topic that I don't see many people who play SSO talk about. The new SSO music isn't bad. It's nice to listen, it gives off the pleasant feeling that feels right when riding around the Isle of Jorvik, but the major problem is that it doesn't have the "SSO Essence". It doesn't sound like Jorvik soundtrack Updated, but like "Jorvik Soundtrack: Forget the Past Edition." There are other games that updated their OST, Most notable for me Being Blazblue and Under Night In Birth. While Developing Blazblue Chronophantasma Daisuke Ishiwatari the Main composer, took the original OSTs he made for the past 2 entries and remixed them, still keeping the Soundtrack "The same" but adding it a new flare. UNIB2 had a similar situation in which Raito also just remixed Original character themes, keeping them fresh for the new release. Guilty Gear was different because, with each new entry, all Characters got new themes, but still kept their "Core essence". The main character's themes were always recognized by heavy drums and guitar rifts, His rival's music always had music that sounded somewhat "regal", considering his position as King of his country. The problem with SSO New OST is that Neither they updated it, like in BB or UNIB nor they "Kept the essence", like in GG. They just went in and made OST that you could hear in ANY horse game, which doesn't have anything characteristics of SSO.

10:22 Oooooooh, Scottish! :D

8:48 Eh, personally, I'm not sad to see that one go. It always felt WAY too intense for a training session and quite frankly scared me, lol. Something I don't get, though, is why don't they just switch between songs at random instead of replacing them entirely? As in, make it a coin toss which one you're gonna hear each time you're in the relevant place or event? That way, they can switch it up without COMPLETELY destroying the nostalgia and just general enjoyment for those who loved the original music! It seems like such a simple solution!

1:55 I thought that said 3,470 PAGES... ^^;

This video is so good! Not just hate, but actual critique, with good points. Word about this needs to spread a lot more!

Can't you update the no-weekly allowance to one with weekly allowance? I've heard about some people doing it '^^ Oh, and from 2013-2023 I've spent over 1.200€ >.<

@StarStableOnline Needs to watch this

In a way I feel ripped off when I think back on what SSO originally had and did when compared to what it is has become now. Back then you'd actually look forward to updates no matter how big or small they were and like mentioned in the video, the updates were actually polished and working right from the start. Nowadays the bugs keep on piling up, the story is all over the place and it truly does feel like a scam when they keep pushing out double star coin and star rider offers along with new horse breeds or new coat variations when the money or time clearly doesn't go to upgrading the actual problems the game has. Personally why I miss the old SSO (coming from a player who's journey began around the end of 2013, during Christmas and New Year celebration) is because.. I've just grown up. I'm no longer a little blue-eyed 12 year old kid but a 22 year old adult. Back then you'd be excited to learn what the next update would be. I got my first star rider subscription around the time the G1 arabians were brought to the game, when Dino Valley was added and the servers were down for 3 days before being up and running without a problem. It was a time when getting a story quest was a literal blessing from the devs and how during events people actually came for the festivities and not only for the collectible outfits/other cosmetics. I personally miss the Halloween update when Galloper Thompson was introduced for the first time ever. That was a time when there would be crowds of people waiting for him to spawn in and actually having conversations on where he might spawn and having fun looking for him as huge groups. Nowadays the very few events don't even really feel fun anymore, they just feel like a lazy way to try and milk money out of players. I might hop on just to see if there's anything genuinely fun for me to do and then be disappointed when even the few good things are removed or revamped into a literal grind-fest just to get something out of them. Overall I do understand that the newest generation of kids and teens wouldn't be as interested in the game if it wasn't updated to what it is now, but eventually they themselves will experience same grief and nostalgia when the things the game currently has are removed or changed completely yet again. Or at worst: the game gets shut down one way or another. It's only a matter of time at this point, really..

I honestly love playing sso with Spotify in the back playing the old soundtracks on repeat 😢

I feel like they could've played on the nostalgia so much and kept so many old players and new players would also get nostalgic later on. idk why they changed so many things. I get needing to update grafics, but these aren't updates, they're straight up changing so many places. it's so unnecessary and I don't understand who thought it would be a good idea

23:34 oh my god, prices in euro are very high comparing to pln (149pln is 35 euro)

The problem is that its hellishly boring now. There is no content, its barely a game - all the additions are about shopping.

your english is so good i didnt even THINK that you were finnish omgg :D me too hehehe

We need a server thats like the old sso version

The Welcome to Jorvik song can be heard when your character levels up and I'm like 99% positive the walking through moorland song still plays when you're in moorland?.. I'll double check on my own game and make and edit confirming or denying. Maybe they did remove it at one point idk. Lemme check. Edit: Yes, as of July 4th, 2024 11:11pm that soundtrack does actively play while you are in moorland. Maybe they removed it temporarily then secretly put it back, or maybe because it's night time for me the song maybe only plays at night now. Idk, but both of those tracks are still actively in the game. Second edit: frozen valleys is still played in the home stable and is also the lobby music when you boot the game up (on mobile at least, idk about PC). Again, maybe they did remove it but have since discreetly put it back after a lot of demand. This video is 3 months old so that's highly likely. Fourth and final edit: no I don't think they ever removed any of these songs as thinking back I do not at all remember just suddenly not hearing any of these songs. Maybe some players were experiencing audio bugs or something but I have no idea what you're talking about on this one chief. Please, if there is an explanation please give it, I'm not trying to be rude I just wanted to engage in the general discussion with my own personal experience.

Whoever Sargeant Tom is, he needs to work with Star Stable again, because his music is fantastic

I didn't even know you could buy lifetime without a weekly allowance, that is truly a scam like 🫠😶

they sold the company right? I guess that is the reason for the game changing in literally every way. Too bad, I wish we just had a way to play the old game
