Good ol’ buttcraft butt

I don’t really mean in terms of mods, but like go off if you wanna. I’m a lifelong Minecraft enjoyer, played it basically from Alpha right up to release, and dropped off around 1.2ish. I’ve played it in bursts again over the years, but the more weird stuff they add the more weirded out I feel. I just wanna build houses with sloping rooves, sheesh… It does kind of make me wanna just give up and play Legacy Console on Wii U or something weird.

[Minecraft boomer alert I guess]

I don’t totally hate what they’ve done with the game itself but it’s clear that the launcher is a lost cause. Plus how does Java chug this badly on a Ryzen 2600? I have to choose between a performance mod that makes the game run, or pad support, because one of them uses Fabric and the other uses the other thing. Remember when Minecraft mods was just dumping .jar files into the game’s directory?

I mean to ask, what is the way cool kids play Minecraft nowadays? Are there cool alternative launchers or modpaks or a specific version or whatever I can play that’s cooler than Microsoft Occupied Minecraft and are more fun?

    I play the original aether mod while listening to the yogpod and old paul saurs jr vids and do a little cry. This is the way to play.

        My home life was shit but this era of internet and minecraft is a vibe and level of emotion i will never achieve again. Loading the latest cooptional/tgs/yogpod pod onto my mp3 player and walking to school. Coming home to og tekkit with my friends and my first venture into hosting servers and understanding how networking works.

        It’s something I’ll never experience again. Especially total biscuit. Nobhead but i loved him dearly.
