The motto of the pack is that you can become what you wish to be. A Templar knight who secretly prays to the dark lord? A dual wielding barbarian who's secretly a piano prodigy desperately wanting to perform? A rat-man known for their talents in assassination via snipers? Really. There are tons of ways to use your creativity to become what you wish to be!
The pack is full of exploration and role-playing aspects all while trying to keep the vanilla feel of Minecraft! I made this pack for me and some members of my twitch community for our role-play smp. So in my opinion, you'll have the most fun in this modpack when playing multiplayer RP with friends. There are so many new things added. Mostly mechanical or QoL changes. Things like new classes, biomes, generation, more immersive villages, movement like wall jumping, machinery from Create, dark magic, tons of enchantments, immersive mechanics, etc! You'll find ways to become more powerful, but that doesn't mean your safe. There are tons of new beasts and enemies! And watch out! The undead have been beefed up! You'll need to find a new way to fight them.. Maybe fire..? Along with that the Wither and Ender Dragon won't mess around anymore after a couple beatings. Like I said, there's a ton of new stuff and I think the better way to play is to experience the new yourself. I've written a low-spoiler, simple guide book that you'll find in your in-game inventory replacing the recipe book. It's not a quest book, but I do give you a push in the right direction to help your adventures! Have fun out there! <;*)
A few things to note:
- If you are plan on playing this on a multiplayer server, try using Morpheus and Simple Voice Chat! It'll make it more immersive! If you want a challenge in multiplayer try Hardcore Revival!
- Optifine will run just fine with the pack (in my experience). In fact, I suggest you use it with BSL shaders! You'll have one main problem with the Antique Atlas being see through though.
The bigger things to look out for! Unless.. you want to avoid spoilers! ;*)
- You'll find new biomes from The Endergetic Expansion, Autumnity, Environmental, Atmospheric, and Druidcraft. Along with super cool upgraded rivers from Upstream!
- The three main classes are melee, ranger, and mage! You find magic in Ars Nouveau and Eidolon along with tons of new weapons for melee and ranger from Dungeons Gear!
- You'll find really really cool cave and mineshaft generation from Quark, YUNG's Better Caves, and YUNG's Better Mineshafts!
- You'll find machinery in Create! I feel that it most fits the 'vanilla' feel the most out of all the machine mods.
- Tons of new mechanic changes and introductions such as Sapience, Not Enough Breeding, Enhanced Celestials, Double Slabs, Herd Mentality, Consecration, and way, way more!
There's a lot more to see, but you'll have to find it yourself! I think that's the better way to play anyways.. ;*) Good luck!
