Real Hot Takes

This is not rage bait, but based on the years I've lurked here, it'll probably read like it.



I prefer Refined Storage over AE2. Sue me. I use the mod for a magic box to throw all my items in. RS is easier to get into, and I have never experienced a performance issue due to it in any modpack.


If my modpack doesn't use Better Combat, I download it myself. Minecraft is not a combat game to me. I do not care about skill. If this mod helps me have greater than a 25% hit accuracy against baby zombies, then I love it.


I love Create in every modpack. To me, Create is an extension of vanilla that I think would be totally fine in the base game. I usually try to choose it first over other mods if possible when manufacturing so I'm not watching GUIs all day.


If a modpack has a minimap, I turn it off. I play to immerse myself in the world. If there's a minimap, I find myself looking at it for structures the whole time. Stumbling upon a structure by chance is far more fun.


If a modpack has huge biomes that add a ton of wood and dirt alternatives, I turn it off. It's just too much.


I have still not tried a Greg mod. Although I work in science and it seems like it could be interesting, Reddit makes it sound terrible, and again, I don't like spending all day in a GUI.


Also, Minecraft's food system is absolute garbage, so I download the Valheim spice mod any time I can, which just turns the food system into Valheim's food system.
