In this alternate Universe the Mojang team has suffered an immense loss of players and is working very hard to give the players what they always wanted...
This modpack offers a new way to play, you have to level up your skills in order to use new tools, gain more health, use better armor, etc.. No more speedrunning the game, your adventure will be longer and more rewarding. Don't worry the vanilla essence of minecraft is preserved as if Mojang were 20 years ahead of us !
Some of the modded features have been tweaked so they are harder to get, no more easy waystones or big storage, you will have to deserve it !
Over 150+ quests are here to guide you to all the possibilities the modpack has to offer, no worries there is not that much to learn as I wanted the most vanilla friendly experience but with a twist to it.
