I too like these new horses with their diversity of breeds, colors, and poses. I also look forward to new future horse and tack releases for the historic themes. It's nice to see that the new horses look better without a saddle, not having the indentations, but that will mean all old saddles will not be compatible, which is a big negative. Another negative, for me at least, is that I'm heavily invested in the second generation horses (for my Roman, Egyptian, Knight, and Pirate themes) and somewhat invested in the first generation horses (for my Western theme).
