C.C.Creations - Most Recent (Uploaded May 9th 2024, Reviewed 12/06/2025)
Before even properly analysing this video, I want to make the observation that CC Creations is my favourite Star Stabler youtube because they reveal new content before it arrives in the game.
I am not sure how they access the game files - it is not something I have tried to do. For each horse they "Reveal" they use different (often classical) music.
CC Creations always starts their videos with a spoiler warning addendum
Their videos are Timestamped and organized into different sections for ease of access for the watches. [1:24 PM]
OP watermarks their videos [1:26 PM]
uses a shallow focus lens
[1:28 PM]Goes through a meticulous level of care within the spoiler video, showcasing many different aspects of the horse that users may be interested in
There is sometimes a touch of personal fun and humor involved - such as including a section in this video for "long tail appreciation" as the American Saddlebred has an unusual length tail
OP also uses the same endcard for every video - an endcard that uses an outdated character model from the game.
Comments Synopsis:
While videos where the OP is more "present" have comments that have more of a direction towards the OP, these comments seem to be speaking to themselves or to one another. Something I didn't fully anticipate in this section of my research was the level of relelvancy the role of 'self' would have. I knew it was unavoidable but I did not know it would become nearly key. I bring this up now as it has been in the gameplay of StarStable that I have really enjoyed the American Saddlebred, and felt personal sadness to see a near-universal preference for a different breed (the Dutch Warmblood) when discussed in Global chat (when another user inconspicuously asked people to share their favourite between the two). The comments on this video reflect hte dubious response to this breed - with comments such as "It’s like a love hate situation right now I’m so lost". In this breed of horse in particular, there is also a discussion on "humane" treatment, as horses with gaited breeds can sometimes have the gait achieved through inhumane means - I am not particularly versed in my own understanding of this.
"Whew that's a relief it looks really good! They got the gaits spot on and humane lookin. 🎉 They look full of attitude 😂 The movement is very fluid hats off to whoever designed this model honestly.😂'
Another interesting feedback seen through the comments is a range of users being unhappy witht he "idle" animation being incredibly active. It is curious that users are against an active idle animation - would one not enjoy their simulate creature seeming more alive through its animations?
