    Same here.

    I’ve been playing minecraft for 10+ years.

    I am just downright bored of vanilla, especially when mods can ad so much amazing work to the game… but the wide open sand box has gotten a bit boring, even modded, after 10+ years so I really enjoy quest packs that give you a series of goals and accomplishments, and bonus points if its wrapped up on a story.

    I kinda miss the way quest packs were in the old HQM days, though… Modern quest packs, at least the ones i’ve tried thus far, just seem to be “heres the big wide open soapbox…with checkmarks!” instead of following a storyline and unlocking things as you developed and discovered.

      It’s funny that you say that, about just being checkmarks. Just stopped playing the new Skyblock 5(?) pack, and the “tasks book” is just pages of user clickable checkboxes. Think that it might just be partly in development still though.

      The “colors” theme was quite fun and new, everything is colorless until you unlock the color palette one color at a time. It’s the foundation of crafting as you can make most of the mats from mixing dye.
