It's not modded Minecraft, but close enough that I figure it falls under the "somewhat related" rule:
I've been playing Vintage Story recently, which is a standalone game spun off from the Terrafirmacraft Minecraft mod. Would highly recommend if you're into block games. It takes Minecraft in a more survival-oriented direction that no mod aside from Terrafirmacraft really ever did.
Here's my little homestead blanketed in the snows of winter:
I've heard of Vintage Story. It looks neat but I never got around to trying it. And yeah, any Minecraft-esque game is fair as far as I'm concerned since this is a community centered on modded Minecraft and not just Minecraft itself.
I'm currently making a pack to play with my friends. It's centered around Create and some magic mods, as I wanted to try out Create and Hex Casting in 1.19
Well, it's solid FTB modpack, with cool quest, some custom systems(like their system for trade) and so on. Overall experience is great.
FTB modpacks in general are great experience, would recommend any of them.
Currently playing the 1.7.10 Blightfall with a friend. We're in end game now. We have almost half of the map cleaned.
Never did get enough power to operate more than a few machines tho.
Neat! I've toyed around with Minecolonies before. I'll have to take a peek at it at some point. I'm interested to see how they build their progression on it.
Been playing a few weeks on a Infitech FtN server. (GregTech 5u and some others, all tuned to be very difficult, and Lycanites throw in to the mix). Still going pretty good on it, just into MV but I've built out the best LV setup of any of my attempts so far.
It's a nice GTCE + Gregicality pack that's more involved than Nomi but isn't quite at GTNH complexity. I'm chipping away at it whenever I'm in the mood.
