Was coming back into Minecraft but wanted to make the game feel more spicy because vanilla survival has gotten boring for me, so I've been playing the latest April Fools snapshot "The Vote Update" in hardcore, with a personal rule that I cannot say "Do nothing" to any vote.

I did lose my first world to "Replace Creeper spawns with Warden" but the second world has been going well, and it's definitely a more chaotic and interesting way to play the game.

Give Vintage Story a shot. It’s Minecraft as a survival game and much more than that.

Looks beautiful too.

I'll definitely look into it, I have had a couple friends play it before actually, so they might be able to give me a steer on how to play.

Have you explored any Minecraft modpacks yet?

[–] JustARegularNerd 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I have, and generally I get overwhelmed with how complicated they can get, especially the really popular modpacks that add magic and stuff like that.

I usually end up making my own "Vanilla+" kind of modpack, but I've gotten bored with most mods that I would usually add to that.

With that being said, I might try adding only a few of the more technical mods and seeing if I enjoy that.

The tech mods are where it's at anyways. I love the idea of the magic mods.. but they are.. rough lol

Create is probably the best or the mods out there, very well done and very fun.

Supposedly this is also a good modpack to get into https://www.feed-the-beast.com/modpacks/1-ftb-academy-112?tab=about
