The Long Descent is an RPG modpack where exploration and defeating bosses are the focus.
You spawn in the Aether, and that's where your journey begins.
Your goal is to go deeper and deeper: from the Overworld you have to dig down to discover new places and progress through the quests.
1. Awaken in the AetherYour adventure starts high above the clouds. Learn the basics and follow the main questline. |
2. Dig downLeave the sky behind. The Overworld is only the way down, not the goal. |
3. Descend the AbyssEvery layer has its own mobs, dangers and bosses. The deeper you go, the harder it gets. |
