Too. Much. Info.

That's a lot of new information about certain things we already knew were coming and new stuff period.

I know that I will not be paying for employees. It was difficult when we had to hire players that were a requirement and it will be even more so buying them for a limited time that is only optional. Thanks, but no thanks.

As for Drafts, not too happy that they'd work similarly to Donkeys (seriously, only 3 per life time....*starts hoarding F Wands*), but still happy to know we're getting not one but two breeds. Can't wait to work with them. (hopes for Clydes)

Cattle probably won't be too big a deal for me since I'm already a Western EC. And I am glad we can get more Greenhouses and plant an additional crop even in regular growing seasons. Hopefully Cattle will be like the Apples in that it's a perma-crop.

I have to say, that the new additions and changes to the meadows and lessons, I am not happy with.

To be quite honest, so far I'm mostly overwhelmed by how much is going to be changed. Lessons, missions, resource gathering, workshops, 11 new employees.... this game seems to be going in the direction of the Settlers or Travian. (If those are still... things)

I personally think the ECs were perfectly ok as they were. They were a secondary thing to do, which didn't take too much time from the main aim of the game, which I gather, is supposed to be horse breeding.

I have no clue of those, but now have an urge to look them up.

It seems to be removing itself from horse breeding.

In some ways this is becoming more realistic of the whole Equestrian world.

ALSO for anyone that ever played Farmtown or Farmville on Facebook should have no difficulty adjusting or understanding what is going to happen or how to adjust to it. default smiley (y)

I hated the employees. They were much too difficult to hire and paying for them was a pain in the rear!

Anyone know what these changes (the removal of putting horses in the meadows) means for the Croesus fortune?

How did you raise and lower it? I don't remember if we could 'fire' employees and you could only raise the salary, not decrease it.

Exactly. I hired myself as a Saddler and would just extend my employment, but that left Farrier and Riding Instructor empty all the time. Grooms were easy as there were a ton of new players or under seniority players to fill those positions.

I never hired myself for a long period of time, only the shortest time period, so I could rehire myself, and extend the job if I needed to.

Ugh. I'm getting disappointed with Howrse. Who remembers the Ideas' Forum? Remember how they said 'no suggesting winged unicorns or drafts'?. Like ugh it just has me wanting to slam my fist in my computer or makes me want to dance around from becoming crazy. XD. Sorry, but honestly Howrse.

And now for the jobs! So they're bringing them back, //after// they took them away?default smiley (o) I had never liked the jobs in the first place, and I think the game is alright as it is. Now, I have more money for my EC instead of paying 'employees' their daily salary. But nuuuu... when the community may be happy without the jobs, something makes the Howrse team want to bring them back. -.- *sighs* oi oi oi....

Sorry for my little rant there, but I just had to get that out default smiley xd
Does anyone know what the next divine is going to be? default smiley :)

If I wanted to play Farmville, I would be playing Farmville.

I choose to play howrse, what use to be a very relaxing enjoyable game.

True. And because the Farm games on FB have been like they were I dropped them quickly. default smiley (lol)

I like the new crafting stuff. It makes you want to explore that part of the game a little further.

I'm also 110% sure I will be hoarding these resource bonus drafts. Good thing I have my breeding bmi restocked.
