Those Before Us

Do you like wildlife, creativity, structures, and gorgeous landscapes? Then this pack is for you! :D

 

Those Before Us is a modpack aiming to create a Minecraft with an atmosphere you'll never forget, a modpack where you can play, build, and do whatever your heart desires.

"Discord Invite Link"

I am a game dev student, and this is my modpack for testing game design! It turned out way better than I expected, so I decided to share it here!


I have carefully selected  300+ mods to build and improve upon what I consider to be

Minecraft's Core:

1. Exploration

2. Adventure

3. Creativity

5. Mystery

 

NOTE: Joining your friend's world through Essential works great without issues or lag! :D

So please share this pack with people who might like it. I would be grateful🙏

Gameplay Twist

When you die, you lose lives. To gain more, you have to eat new foods. This way, you have to discover new foods, leading you to the corners of your world. 


 

Our Goal

 

With these mods, I wanted to achieve a more varied terrain, flora, and fauna,

while adding a few fun additions on the side.

 

Giving you countless more ways to personalise and decorate your environment and home.

Seeking to create a Minecraft for those with curious minds.


I made this modpack to create a world greater than ourselves, where I could witness it living its own life, leading to moments seen in the images above. I wanted a game world of variety, immersion, and possibilities, and I truly believe I succeeded.

 

This pack was originally based around the mod Fossils and Archaeology, as building a zoo for dinosaurs and creatures alike would be epic. But now, with all of these mods, you can do so much more than that, with hundreds of new creatures, mechanics, and plants at your disposal. 

 

The beauty of this pack is that your goal could be very different from ours, and you'd probably love it either way.

 


Now, enjoy! 😉🫶
